Join me and my friend Liron, a fitness coach from Los Angeles, as we discuss the complex relationship between fitness trends, body image, and attracting potential partners. We share personal stories and insights into how men and women design their workout routines in hopes of gaining attention from the opposite sex. We reveal how looks and health intersect in the social environment of the gym.  We also talk about the concept of "parallel play" at the gym, which is a unique way for people to work out individually while still experiencing a sense of community. This shows the multi-faceted nature of modern workout culture. We also explore cultural beauty standards and how they influence relationships. We look at how subjective attraction can lead people to pursue a "trophy" partner, and the potential judgments that can arise from relationships with large age gaps. We discuss dating preferences, examining how much weight men and women place on physical attributes versus qualities like security and confidence, which could be the ultimate universal attraction. Don?t miss this episode as we give our thoughts on how dating apps have revolutionized the search for companionship, but may also complicate the path to lasting connections.

Women, have you ever wondered if you should be training differently than men? Tune into today?s episode!  In this episode, Liron and I dive into the often debated question of whether women should train differently than men. Our discussion explores the psychological and physiological aspects of exercise preferences and the importance of a well-rounded fitness routine. We address the tendency for women to gravitate towards cardiovascular exercises, often due to concerns about building too much muscle or appearing "bulky." However, we emphasize that women are meant to lift weights just as much as men and that doing so offers numerous benefits, especially as we age, including improved bone density, muscle mass, and metabolism. Throughout the discussion, we stress the importance of symmetrical training for both men and women, highlighting the aesthetic and functional benefits of working the upper body. While we acknowledge that the best exercise is the one you'll actually do, we encourage listeners to embrace shorter, more intense workouts for optimal results. Liron Kayvan founded BFLA in 2019. He?s a NASM Certified Group Fitness Instructor, Personal Trainer, and Transformative Life Coach. Liron has competed in Amateur MMA, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Rugby and has been a Fitness Coach for over 10 years. What we discuss:  Should women train differently than men?  Psychologically women gravitate toward cardiovascular exercises.  Why symmetrical training is important.  The best exercise is the one you?ll do.  Shorter, more intense workouts are better.  Thank you to our sponsor: Therasage: Head over to therasage.com and use code Be Bold for 15% off?

Are you struggling to develop a meaningful relationship? Do you always find yourself in ?situationships??  If you want to develop a meaningful relationship - you should avoid dopamine dating (consistently swiping right).

Struggle with procrastination? In this episode of the Habits & Hustle podcast, Jennifer admits she is a natural procrastinator, especially when it comes to things she doesn?t enjoy doing or things she thinks she is bad at doing. Although, the reality of life is that we aren?t going to be good at everything and we also aren't going to enjoy doing everything?but we still have to do it. So, how do we overcome this and learn to break our toxic procrastination patterns? If you can relate, get ready for Jennifer to share her best Habits & Hustle tips. She explores the different parameters she has implemented into her everyday life that have greatly changed the way she tackles tasks. She also explains how procrastination can be detrimental to our self esteem, how overcoming procrastination needs to become a habit, and the little things she does to eliminate distractions All the tips Jennifer shares are simple, tangible, and available to you at any time for whenever you?re ready to start tackling your procrastination, too. What?s discussed: 0:00 - Introduction to procrastination 1:45 - How some people don?t have time to procrastinate 2:05 - Why we procrastinate on the things we?re bad at 2:53 - How to make big tasks feel less daunting 3:37 - Getting things done first thing in the morning 4:39 - The correlation between procrastination and self esteem 5:59 - How to eliminate distractions 7:44 - Utilizing time blocking 8:30 - Tell us what you think in the Facebook group! Key Takeaways: You procrastinate less when you break things down into smaller, sizable chunks. If something feels daunting to you, instead of thinking about the daunting task at hand, reframe the way you think about it by focusing on getting a small piece of it done today. The smaller you can break up your task, the less daunting it will end up feeling. Procrastination is one of the simplest ways to destroy your self esteem and being your own accountability partner is one of the best ways to build your self esteem. If you make sure you do the things that you tell yourself you're going to do and do them completely, you?ll feel a sense of accomplishment, and that leads to building real self confidence. Put all the hard things you need to get done at the start of your day. Don?t allow yourself to do anything else until you have fully completed these tasks. Turn this into a habit: Tackle the uncomfortable things first before falling into doing what feels comfortable.

Are you rejecting yourself before anyone else has the chance to? In this solo episode of Habits and Hustle, I chat with you about self-rejection. I go over what it means, why we do it, what are some of the symptoms you are self-rejecting, and what you can do to overcome it. I also explain the difference between self-rejection and self-sabotage. What we discuss: 01:04: What is self-rejection? 03:51: Self-rejection vs Self-sabotage: what?s the difference? 06:46: How to overcome self-rejection Key takeaways: Self-rejection is when you reject yourself first, to avoid others rejecting you. When you self-reject, you put more value on others' thoughts and opinions than your own opinion of yourself.  Symptoms of self-rejection tend to evolve around self-punitive habits such as turning down or not accepting compliments, turning down opportunities you are being presented with, and bringing other people down based on things you see in yourself. To overcome self-rejection, you must replace a bad habit with a good one. This means learning how to accept compliments, learning how to become less judgemental of others and yourself, and taking a chance on yourself when presented with great opportunities.  My links: Website: https://www.jennifercohen.com/ Instagram: @therealjencohen

You?re scrolling on Instagram and stop dead in your tracks as you?re served an ad for a ?new? fitness product.  Except it?s not new?it?s a slightly sleeker product from 20 years ago that promises you abs of steel in 28 days. While it feels like we face a new fitness trend every week, it?s scary to think that the promise of a ?quick fix? is just being recycled over and over again.  In this episode of Habits & Hustle, I?m joined by Sal Di Stefano to reveal the truth behind some of the trends we?re (unfortunately) seeing re-emerge in the health and fitness space.

In this bonus episode of Habits & Hustle, we explore the identity struggles within the Jewish community, the broad complexities of social justice, and the role of media in illuminating these issues with the Tel Aviv Institute Founder, Hen Mazzig. He shares his unique perspective on the importance of standing up and making our identities visible, echoing Harvey Milk's concept of "coming out" as Jewish.  Being Jewish in right now can be dangerous, but at the same time, it?s dangerous for the jewish community to hide your heritage. We discuss how to find a balance between the two. Hen also shares startling data on anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment within Palestine, underscores the urgent need for Jews to reclaim their own humanity, the critical role of media in the Israel-Gaza conflict, and how truth can be distorted by groups like Hamas. Hen Mazzig is a globally-recognized speaker, educator, digital influencer and the founder of Tel Aviv Institute. Over 100 million users have interacted with his online content, and he has appeared as an expert on Jewish issues on four continents, over 500 college campuses, BBC, The Washington Post, SkyNews, TEDx, and countless Shabbat dinners.
