  • Sal Di Stefano is one of the hosts of the highly popular Mind Pump Podcast, a show that exposes the RAW TRUTH about health, fitness, nutrition and more. Sal picked up his first weight at the age of 14. Fitness was a way for him to apply hard work and effort towards changing and re-inventing himself. He wanted to shift the direction of the fitness industry from an aesthetic insecurity based industry to a self love and self care health industry. This episode is an absolute MASTERCLASS on all things fat loss and building muscle and you will also hear Sal get extremely vulnerable as he shares a powerful story of why he let guard down and transformed from an atheist to a christian.
    Today on the show we discuss: what people are doing wrong if they are not losing body fat, how to increase your metabolism, how to create a strength training program that will work for 85-90% of people, the best exercises for building muscle and losing fat, whether or not Sal believes supersets are valuable, 2 things you must do if you want to burn fat and build muscle, how Sal recently went from atheist to christian and much more.

    Thank you for having Sal share his testimony. As a Christian struggling, this is really speaking to me. Thank you Father God for reaching out to me in an area where I falter, and I pray that You reach through this podcast to speak to those who are struggling with body image issues as well.
    I am so blessed to hear the growth in Sal, and it’s so inspiring. Praise God for all the He has done and what He continues to do. Praise Him.

It was very touching 🥲 I really appreciate the wisdom you share on getting healthier and losing fat, the transition into your amazing story about faith made this the best TH-cam video I've listened to in quite a while.

    Yeah I just finally got the hang of caloric deficit. All those diets are crap, just actually pay attention to the calories, carbs, sugar, protein, and sodium (more things matter but I focused on those), stop touching ALL fast food (the lowest calorie McDonald’s meal will still put you 2x over even a homemade burger and fries). Just pay attention to the nutrition. Eat whatever you want but don’t eat too much of one thing. Not too much carbs and sugar especially. If you fuck up and have a soda, don’t worry abt it but skip the slice of cake after dinner. Rice and pasta are sneaky carbs.
    Google a nutrition calculator, be honest abt how much you work out and your current weight. Look at yourself in the mirror EVERY single day and think abt 1 thing you want to improve and one thing you already like abt your body. It won’t change for a while but just keep doing these things and it adds up. And the harder you try the faster you’ll see results. The real important part is to not beat urself up or listen to others. Every time you fuck up just say “I didn’t fuck up the whole day, I can just take a long walk and have a healthier dish for my next meal.” And COMMIT TO IT. That helped me hopefully it helps someone else!!!

      And if you work out even just 30 minutes a couple days of the week this becomes way easier. I realized the harder you work out you also can get away with a few more snacks/higher calorie meals. Makes it easier and you will also gain more muscle like they said. Cardio really helps and you don’t have to run you can just jog or walk really slowly. Anything is better than sitting on the couch!!!!

    Thank you, Sal, for your awesome testimony! It benefits not only unbelievers or people on the fence but also re-emphasizes and renews faith in fellow Christians who have to focus on what their priorities should be and that's trusting and loving Jesus with everything we have. Thank you!❤

    I see too many young guys in the gym whom are fresh to lifting/exercise.
    Thoughts on starting with the big 5, Russian 5x5 ?
    Easy to follow.
    Builds strength.
    Then progress to hypertrophy after a 12-16week 5x5.
    I know nasm strength stability, endurance, and hypertrophy come first, but since this kids want nothing but to get strong and jacked, I feel this is a great way to bridge the gap for a great start with them.

      So your response to someone saying they didn't appreciate the click-bait advertising of building muscle and getting lean, and then have over half the show about Christian rhetoric is find another channel. I guess I'll report this as misleading thumbnail text, but before I unsubscribe and block the channel. Christianity isn't the only religion out there, and there a lot of people who don't want that crap shoved down their throat. You're turning off millions and millions of people when you do that. I'm actually a christian, but I don't want to listen to it when I'm in the mood for learning about my body and health. Just like I'd complain if I watched a video advertsing religous stuff and then they started talking about how to get the best gains in the gym. A better title for your video might be how to get great gains in the gym and find the Christian God while you do it.
