If you've ever felt gym intimidation about walking into a gym or overwhelmed by conflicting fitness advice, this episode is your starting point.

I'm not here to lecture you or add to your guilt. I'm here to show you that fitness belongs to everyone, and strength is the foundation that will serve you for decades to come.

Strength training isn't about becoming a gym warrior or chasing the perfect physique. It's about building a version of yourself that shows up stronger in every role you play - as a parent, partner, friend, and human being navigating this world with energy instead of exhaustion.

This is episode one of my Beginner Health Series.

We will strip away the complexity and focus on what actually works. Forget the 12-week transformations and punishment-based workouts. Real fitness is about building capability, confidence, and consistency - one session at a time.

Here are 5 key takeaways you can expect from this episode on strength training for beginners:

1. Master the Big Six foundational movements that give you the biggest return on your investment.

2. Understand why strength training protects your metabolism and builds long-term health better than cardio alone.

3. Learn how to introduce strategic cardio without sacrificing your strength gains.

4. Shift to a performance-first mindset that focuses on what you can do, not what you weigh.

5. Create a sustainable approach with just 2-3 sessions per week that fits your real life.

This isn't about perfection, it's about taking one honest step forward. Whether that's learning your first movement pattern, booking a session with a coach, or simply walking into a gym for the first time, progress begins with action.

Remember: you're not training just to lift weights. You're training to lift your life—to be more patient with your kids, more present with your partner, more confident in your body, and more resilient under stress.

Strength isn't about lifting heavy weights. Strength is about lifting the parts of your life that have felt too heavy for too long.

What is 'Success'? How do I be 'successful'? What are success habits? Honestly team... I think the answer is more complicated that we would care to believe.

This is more than a motivational speech, it's a motivational video podcast designed to explore some of the more vulnerable aspect of our modern lives. It's called Built Resilient. Welcome to the family.

In this episode, I'm getting a bit vulnerable about my own journey through fitness achievements, leadership roles, and the constant chase for "enough." From brutal endurance races to building a speaking career, I've learned that success isn't what you achieve, it's who you become.

Here are 5 key insights you can expect from this honest conversation about redefining success:

1. Learn why external achievements often leave us feeling empty and unfulfilled despite looking successful.

2. Discover the psychology behind values dissonance and why borrowed goals never satisfy your soul.

3. Get a practical framework for auditing your goals to separate what's truly yours from what's inherited.

4. Understand how to identify your core values and build micro evidence that proves your identity daily.

5. Shift from measuring success by metrics to measuring by meaning and personal alignment.

This isn't me teaching from a mountaintop, it's me sitting beside you, acknowledging that I don't have it all figured out either. But sometimes the most powerful conversations happen when we stop pretending we have all the answers and start exploring the questions together.

Discover a kinder approach to building self discipline. Motivational Speaker Bart Walsh will move beyond strict willpower, explore the world of self-sabotage and focus on 5 commons temptations:

Late night binge eating,

Doom scrolling.

Gym motivation

And Alcohol.

Standing in your kitchen at 9:12 PM, staring down a tub of Ben & Jerry's?

You're not alone in this midnight battle.

Bart Walsh has been there more times than he would care to admit, and this episode isn't about white-knuckling your way through these delicious temptations or shaming yourself into submission.

This is about finding a kinder path to self-discipline, one that doesn't require superhuman willpower.

We're setting up five simple, no-willpower-needed hacks you can install tonight. Each one targets a specific evening temptation.
