The Nick Bare Podcast

Over the last 90 days, I lost about 10 pounds and got leaner without crash dieting, starving myself, avoiding social situations, or sacrificing my training and recovery. I did it by locking in - not through extreme restriction, but by narrowing my focus, reducing unnecessary decisions, and giving the process enough time to work.In this episode, I explain what it really means to lock in, why some people may underperform to avoid raising the standard expected of them, and the difference between moving with urgency and living in a hurry. Then I break down the five changes I made.CHAPTERS:00:00 Intro01:34 The Marathon Prep Analogy for Locking In03:58 What Locking In Is NOT04:56 Relaunching the App08:40 The Winter Arc13:22 Why People Are Afraid to Lock In17:19 What Locking In Actually Means18:14 Minimizing Decision Fatigue21:42 Urgency vs. Hurrying24:25 How I Got Leaner30:07 Why Slow, Sustainable Weight Loss Wins Long-Term33:21 Change One Variable at a Time38:39 The 5 Things I Did to Get Leaner in 90 Days49:06 Closing: Lock In, Get It Done.JOIN THE APP AND GET READY FOR UPDATEShttps://www.nickbarefitness.app/ORDER MY BOOK HERE: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/Go-One-More-Intentional-Life-Changing/dp/1637746210FOLLOW:Become a BPN member FOR FREE - Unlock 25% off FOR LIFE ⁠https://www.bareperformancenutrition.com/collections/performance-nutritionIG: ⁠instagram.com/nickbarefitness/⁠YT: ⁠youtube.com/@nickbarefitnessThis podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered legal [health or profession] advice.

In this episode, I share five things I wish I knew before becoming a dad. I talk about treating children as the cornerstone of an unfinished life, staying ambitious without letting work control the home, prioritizing what matters when balance feels impossible, becoming an intentional father, leading through the example I set, and building confidence through curiosity, courage, and competence.This is not a list of perfect answers. It is an honest look at what the last four years have taught me and what I am still working to become. Whether you are a father, preparing to be one, or thinking about the kind of family you want to lead, I hope this helps you examine your priorities, strengthen your values, and show up with greater intention.CHAPTERS:00:00 App Relaunch01:19 Intro03:03 Books That Shaped Me05:50 Lesson 110:56 Success To Significance Shift15:25 Lesson 225:42 Time Systems And Priorities27:40 Lesson 334:06 Intentional Father Framework38:14 Lesson 4 47:12 Lesson 5 54:50 Closing EncouragementJOIN MY TRAINING APPhttps://www.nickbarefitness.app/ORDER MY BOOK HERE: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/Go-One-More-Intentional-Life-Changing/dp/1637746210FOLLOW:Become a BPN member FOR FREE - Unlock 25% off FOR LIFE ⁠https://www.bareperformancenutrition.com/collections/performance-nutritionIG: ⁠instagram.com/nickbarefitness/⁠YT: ⁠youtube.com/@nickbarefitnessThis podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered legal [health or profession] advice.

In this episode, I break down the planning system I use before every trip and the practical decisions that help me stay consistent on the road. I cover how I scout restaurants, grocery stores, gyms, and running routes; what food, supplements, and hydration I pack; how I prioritize protein; and how I rearrange strength sessions, use vacations as deload weeks, and lean on running when time is limited.You do not need a perfect plan or a rigid schedule to keep making progress. Build enough structure to support your goals, stay flexible when the trip demands it, and make the time for your health without taking time away from the responsibilities that matter most.CHAPTERS:00:00 Intro01:22 Why Fitness Matters02:18 Expectations and Flexibility04:09 Routines Versus Responsibilities10:35 Airport Food Reality Check15:10 Mission Plan for Travel18:04 Eating Plan and Recon23:45 Packing Supplements and Meals26:23 Day Of Travel Food Strategy33:41 Staying Hydrated on Flights35:00 Eating at Destination41:13 Protein First Principles45:46 Smart Restaurant Choices49:58 Training While Traveling52:32 Deloads and Run First59:09 Wrap Up and Key TakeawaysJOIN THE APP AND GET READY FOR UPDATEShttps://www.nickbarefitness.app/ORDER MY BOOK HERE: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/Go-One-More-Intentional-Life-Changing/dp/1637746210FOLLOW:Become a BPN member FOR FREE - Unlock 25% off FOR LIFE ⁠https://www.bareperformancenutrition.com/collections/performance-nutritionIG: ⁠instagram.com/nickbarefitness/⁠YT: ⁠youtube.com/@nickbarefitnessThis podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered legal [health or profession] advice.
