Kyle Newell Podcasts

15 years ago, I began Newell Strength. It was and is my passion. It is also my profession, that of being a Coach. Heading into this year, I developed a strategy, along with Devon, to get it to where I know it can be. I knew that ultimately, it all falls on me, I take responsibility and ownership. In today’s episode, I share with you why now, my rol…

I first began experimenting with cheat days and re-feeds way back in the year 2002. There was hardly any resources back then regarding this topic. After a college department head had no answers for me, I realized that I was on my own and that I'd have to figure out for myself how the human body really worked when it came to trying to pack on muscle…

When I first began training, way back in high school, I quickly realized that what I was doing in the gym and with my nutrition was much different than what the norm was. Maybe it’s because I was willing to do things outside the box, but I soon found out that I was on the correct path and using something I call ‘reality math’ has always allowed me …

3 years ago, I dove into longer form fasting, after doing a 16-20 hour fast for the prior 5 years. But just like 2019, I knew there was something more to be learned and explored, which is the feeling I’ve been hearing God whisper into my ear quite frequently. That’s part of the inspiration that some people have heard me talk about when I talk about…

Have you ever had one of those moments in life when your mind expands on the spot. And you’re conscious of it? If you’re aware of your thoughts, and this happens to you, you remember it forever. For me, one of those moments was when I had the chance to compete against Tim Martin back in 2007 and later become friends with him. Tim expanded my mind i…

I was fortunate enough to interview my longtime mentor and the creator of Mind Map, Dax Moy, a few weeks ago. If you’ve ever wondered about the origins of Mind Map or what the thought process was behind it, then you are going to want to take a listen. In this episode of Unlocking Your Inner Strength, Dax shares some knowledge about the NEED for cre…

My Definition of a Real Man Last year, about this same time, I was giving a lot of deep thought to what it means to be a man. Where was I falling short and where do I continue to fall short? Maybe it’s natural to have thoughts of this magnitude when the seasons change. Check that, I believe it’s imperative to have thoughts like this when the season…

When you were younger, you were probably able to get away with a lot more at the table and your eating habits and not pay a price for it. Although, that doesn’t mean you were necessarily healthy. As we age, we need to take into account a few other factors and there’s a better approach than just cutting calories.…

Going back to the early 2000’s, when I began competing in bodybuilding, I learned how to train with injuries. Over the years, I’ve become known as an expert and how to train with and help injuries heal faster. The absolute worst thing that you can when you get an injury is to stop training. Yes, you read that correctly. If you want to know why and …

The Hardest Thing I’ve Ever Done Ten days ago, we were up in New Hampshire attempting to climb Mt. Washington. Last year, I didn’t make it. This year, I was inspired to give it my best. We made it, it was unreal. I had to use every tool I had in mind, body and spirit. No stone was left unturned. In today’s episode, I break it all down.…

A week ago, we had our 4th installment in our seminar series with Dr. Andrey Espinoza about how to have the healthiest heart around. Lucky for you, I recorded an episode for you on my portion of the talk. If you want to know: How much sodium you need and why keeping salt low is one of the most harmful pieces of health advice ever given Why sleep is…

Ever since I can remember, I knew that a big part of helping people transform their lives was a combination of things, one of which was teaching them so they understood on some level why they were doing what they were doing. Fasting is no different. I can’t tell you how often I hear that ‘I fast, I do the 8 hour window’. Which is fine and dandy, th…

A little over two years ago, I was quarantined in our room with one of the worst cases of flu ever seen. It didn’t kill me, but Devon thought it might. It was the real deal. Anyhow, I had an idea and my notebook. The idea was the concept of the Panda Diet, something I had been brainstorming for a few months. I had nothing else to do and no energy t…

Last week, one of my brothers, Presh, was asking if I thought there was censorship around fasting just like how they censor so many other things these days. Afterall, fasting does change the health for the positive dramatically in those that try it. While I don’t think there’s censorship around fasting, I do believe the current way of eating has be…

Before you know it, the warm weather will be here. Which means that a lot of people will be thinking about their eating a bit more. It’s natural in the winter to ease up and eat more ‘rich’ foods. This is part of the human hibernation theory that I believe to be true. Anyhow, in today’s episode, I discuss why we are like Cacti living in a forest. A…

I have been on point with my weekly, long breathing session and it certainly does make me ‘high’. Yes, it seems like a nuisance at times to stay on point with. But well worth it. And in about a month, we are once again heading to Mt. Washington to attempt to summit the highest point on the east coast. Last year, my brain was shot by the time I cros…

I began my fasting journey 8 years ago. 8 years of honing my craft and I feel like I am just beginning to scratch the surface. In today’s episode of Unlocking Your Inner Strength, I drop some knowledge on the 5 Problems That Fasting Will Fix and not all of them have to do with what you’re eating. But you’ll have to take a listen to find out what th…

2012 was a pivotal year for Newell Strength. In this week’s episode of Unlocking Your Inner Strength, I reminisce about the past decade. If you listened to last week’s episode, you’ll get a feel for the start-up days and the hustle of those first 5 years. In 2012, I made it my commitment to go all in and walk away from my cushy teaching career. Hop…

A couple of weeks ago, Suga Shane sent me a podcast to listen to. The podcast? One of my very own, where I discussed the origins of Newell Strength. Which gave me the idea to create another episode on that very topic as each year I get further away from the origins I am sure I will have new insights to share and memories that you may not be aware o…

Leading is not easy. But it’s necessary. Some people are born leaders. Some become leaders. Some are born and become great leaders. So, what does it mean to lead? In today’s episode, I break down leadership and decision making.By Kyle Newell

As I continue to break down the 50th Law and lessons on being fear-less, it should become more and more apparent that unless you learn how to deal with fear, you will always live life at way less than your potential. Coming into the New Year, you will think about what you want to achieve this year or why this year is going to be different. It will …

When most people get sick, their only go-to is medication for symptom relief. I get it, I’ve been there. But what if you could have some ‘out of the box’ supplements that would prevent you from getting sick in the first place? Yes, this may be controversial because of the Lame Stream Media, but I am not one to shy away from controversy.…

How Does a Week Without Worry Sound? Two weeks ago, I told Devon that I was making a commitment to not have any worries for a week. Yes, those thoughts were certainly going to pop up, the task was going to be to shift my attention as soon as I felt them. Afterall, the grass is always greener where you put your focus. In today’s episode, I share the…

Napolean, one of, if not the greatest army generals in history had a philosophy on mental to physical. The moral was to the physical a 3 to 1 advantage. Meaning, your mind and attitude are far more powerful than your physical resources. We see this in great talent that never seem to achieve their full potential. However, once understood and applied…

In today’s episode, I continue to unpack the book, The 50th Law. Realize in life that you are alone. Realize that no one is coming to your rescue. And know that being free from what others think you should be, is the ultimate freedom.By Kyle Newell

Do you know what your principles in life are? It’s okay if you don’t know, most are never asked this question. In today’s episode, I take a detour from the lessons of fear to give you the framework for developing your philosophy of life. For an example, you can download my free '33 Principles to Win at Life' manual to get your brain going on this c…

In today’s episode of ULYIS, I present to you another in my series of ‘The 50th Law’. All about fear and how to handle it. You’ll have to listen to find out the source of all knowledge, but know that you have to empty your cup constantly if you are going to access it. Enjoy the listen!By Kyle Newell

Over ten years ago, I first read the book, the 50th Law. It is one of my top 5 all-time books. In today’s episode, I go over some lessons that I pull right from the book and share with you my insights and experience with these principles. Who couldn’t use a little more fearlessness in their life?By Kyle Newell

Two weekends ago, Suzy and I went on a road trip. But it wasn’t just a road trip, it was a journey. A journey in which Suzy had a big break through with her faith. A journey in which I witnessed here metamorph from a caterpillar to a butterfly. This episode is me, witnessing a beautiful transformation. Enjoy!…

Life Lessons from Jiu-Jitsu It’s hard for me to believe that I have already been going to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for 4 years already. I remember the nervous, excited energy when I made that decision. I felt like a fish out of water for the first 3 months, at least! I figured it would be timely to reflect on some life lessons from BJJ that I feel might…

I am fortunate enough to study some pretty interesting things. Things that may have never been studied in conjunction with one another. And that means, making connections that no one has ever made, at least not through the same route. If you really stop to think about it, you do the same things or have the potential to do the same thing. We each ha…

Sometimes, seemingly intelligent people do things that make zero sense according to logic. You see that in fitness and nutrition all the time. Heck, you even see it with everything going on in the world today. I know that if you listen to today’s episode of my podcast, you’ll connect some dots and become more powerful because of it.…

Way back in 2003, when I was first interning with Rutgers Football strength and conditioning, I realized that what I had been taught in college regarding weight loss was completely wrong. Nearly all of it. How so? Well, a good percentage of the football guys were shredded and muscular, despite no long distance cardio nor watching their calories. Th…

Lessons Learned From Ten Days Without Food It’s hard for me to believe that it has already come and gone, but my 10 day long experiment without food is behind me. In this final podcast about my journey, I go over the main lessons I learned regarding my detox and how it applies to you. Two of the things I talk about are knowing your why and your wha…

On September 7th, I began a ten day long trek with something known as the Master Cleanse. Funny thing is, my energy was superb, even though I didn’t eat food for ten days. In this episode of ULYIS, my energy hits a new high as I break down common eating myths including: >Fake Fitness Experts that say One Meal Per day is Wrong >The fallacy of calori…

I do believe a big part of my destiny is in helping to figure out how to help people eat right through fasting, detox and natural foods to attain purity of health. In fact, it’s one of the things I pray for guidance with before each meal. With that in mind, I know that I must first test the theories on myself. This serves two purposes; one, to see …

Yes, the human body is the human body, so there are those out there that don’t delineate men and women’s training. But I feel that it is important to examine the principles of training, so you can decipher what to focus on in a workout as a busy dad. In this episode of ULYIS, I discuss some in depth principles, but don’t worry, I keep it simple.…

How Can We Live in Two Different Realities? A part of what is so great about road trips is that you can have deeper conversations than you would have if you were just passing by each other during a busy week. I had some great conversations with my bros a few weeks ago that I will recount in today’s episode. It’s too important not to share and it’s …

In ancient Greece, the great thinkers would often fast, not for weight loss but more for higher level thought. Fasting does a whole bunch of cool things for your brain though certain hormones. And, it's all based in the science of survival. Even if you don't have to lose weight, consider the other powers of fasting such as these. Enjoy!…

Your Inner Creates Your Outer One of the reasons that I fell in love with Mind Mapping was because of the power to know yourself on a deeper level. Think about it, we have a mind, a brain; one of the most powerful things in the known galaxy, yet many of us don’t acknowledge just how powerful it is. In today’s episode, I cover some key questions tha…

Intermittent Fasting: Fad or Fact? That is the title of the newspaper article that prodded me to record this episode.

In this episode: -Why fasting is not a fad diet -Why looking at everything within the frame of calories i…

Aligning Mind, Body and Spirit for Weight Loss The hardest part for most people is finding the right way of eating that works physiologically. For most, they never get past this stage. However, if you are fortunate enough to get past this stage, you must make sure your mind and spirit align with the path, or your transformation will forever allude …

The other night, I had a dream about Bigfoot. And I tell you this, so that you can understand that embracing your uniqueness and weirdness is a great thing. It is where life becomes rich and colorful. If, on the other hand, you just want to fit in, then you will always have to suppress your uniqueness. You can't have it both ways. Enjoy the episode…

Two weekends ago, I spent a few hours pulling weeds. This is something I would have despised doing just a few years ago. Now, I relish connecting with my hands this way. Plus, there were many lessons popping into my head as I was pulling.By Kyle Newell

I am fresh off vacation and had a few thoughts about life I wanted to share in this episode. Your life is a manifestation of what is going on on the inside. Your thoughts become words which become actions which become physical reality. However, most people start with the outside and hope it affects their inside. Do the opposite of what the majority…

One of the main questions I get with the Panda Fasting is, ‘How can I get past the 24 hour mark? I seem to have a mental block to going longer’. Well, lucky for you, I answer that in this episode, including: -How to overcome the traditional dieting dogma point of view that you have come from -Why performance shouldn’t be an issue -Why making a deci…
