If you’re over 35, your problem isn’t effort, it’s recovery.You can train hard, follow a solid program, and eat “pretty clean,” but if your joints ache for days, injuries linger, and progress keeps stalling, your body isn’t bouncing back the way it used to. In this episode, Dane breaks down the recovery accelerators that are changing the game for serious lifters: peptides that actually work.You’ll learn what peptides are, why they’re not steroids or hormone replacement, and how they function as signaling compounds that tell your body to heal, repair, and regenerate more efficiently. Dane dives deep into CJC-1295, TB-500, and BPC-157, explaining exactly how each one supports growth hormone production, tissue repair, joint health, gut healing, sleep quality, and long-term training longevity.This episode also covers who peptides are for, who should stay away until their basics are dialed in, real-world recovery examples, proper dosing frameworks, and how to use peptides safely without falling into hype or shortcuts.If you want to keep training hard, stay durable, and extend your physical prime instead of breaking down year after year, this episode will give you a clear, no-BS framework for smarter recovery. 👉 TAKE MY FREE METABOLIC QUIZ HERE! Apply to work with Dane:Save your spot for a Dad Bod Sculptors Strategy Call and see if you qualify.👉 https://dadbodsculptors.typeform.com/to/LniWZZaP 💪 Stay Connected with Dad Bod Sculptors➤ Follow on Instagram: @dadbod_sculptors➤ Connect with me on Linkedin➤ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel 🔥 Official Partners & SponsorsOptimize your health with the exact tools we use in the Dad Bod Sculptors system:HD Muscle Supplements — Get Elite Protein, Supplements and Vitamins (Use code: DADBOD)Elev8 Cream of Rice — My go-to for clean, high-performance carbs.

In this episode, Dane breaks down why he doesn’t coach the masses, and why leaders are the only men who truly create lasting change.Most men want information. They want motivation. They want shortcuts.But transformation doesn’t work that way.Dane explains the Multiplier Effect, the idea that when a high-performing man gets his body, discipline, and standards back, the impact goes far beyond him. His team feels it. His marriage feels it. His kids model it. His culture shifts. One man changes… and hundreds of lives are influenced as a result.This episode dives into why successful men often dominate professionally while neglecting their health, why free content can start the process but never finish it, and how real transformation requires accountability, structure, and an identity shift, not more information.If you’re a leader with leverage, a founder, executive, manager, or father, this episode will challenge you to look at your responsibility differently. Not just to your work or your family, but to the standard you set every single day.Because leaders don’t just talk about change.They embody it.Burn the excuses. Build the man. Be the standard. 👉 TAKE MY FREE METABOLIC QUIZ HERE! Apply to work with Dane:Save your spot for a Dad Bod Sculptors Strategy Call and see if you qualify.👉 https://dadbodsculptors.typeform.com/to/LniWZZaP 💪 Stay Connected with Dad Bod Sculptors➤ Follow on Instagram: @dadbod_sculptors➤ Connect with me on Linkedin➤ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel 🔥 Official Partners & SponsorsOptimize your health with the exact tools we use in the Dad Bod Sculptors system:HD Muscle Supplements — Get Elite Protein, Supplements and Vitamins (Use code: DADBOD)Elev8 Cream of Rice — My go-to for clean, high-performance carbs.

Most men don’t stay stuck because they lack information, discipline, or motivation.They stay stuck because they keep choosing comfort and comfort always sends the bill.In this episode, Dane breaks down why comfort is one of the most dangerous forces in a man’s life not because it’s loud or destructive in the moment, but because it erodes you slowly, quietly, and relentlessly over time.Sleeping in instead of training.Eating what’s easy instead of what fuels you.Numbing stress instead of dealing with it.Putting things off because “now isn’t the right time.”None of it feels harmful in the moment.But years later, the cost shows up as low energy, muted confidence, a body that feels older than it should, and a growing disconnect at home and in life.Dane explains why trying harder never fixes this cycle — and why effort without identity change always collapses. Real transformation doesn’t come from motivation, willpower, or hype. It comes from becoming a different man.This episode challenges you to take an honest look at what comfort has already cost you — and who you’ll become if nothing changes. More importantly, it lays out the identity shift required to stop negotiating with comfort and start living at a higher standard.This isn’t about perfection.It’s about alignment.And it’s about becoming unrecognizable — not by trying again, but by changing who you are. 👉 TAKE MY FREE METABOLIC QUIZ HERE! Apply to work with Dane:Save your spot for a Dad Bod Sculptors Strategy Call and see if you qualify.👉 https://dadbodsculptors.typeform.com/to/LniWZZaP 💪 Stay Connected with Dad Bod Sculptors➤ Follow on Instagram: @dadbod_sculptors➤ Connect with me on Linkedin➤ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel 🔥 Official Partners & SponsorsOptimize your health with the exact tools we use in the Dad Bod Sculptors system:HD Muscle Supplements — Get Elite Protein, Supplements and Vitamins (Use code: DADBOD)Elev8 Cream of Rice — My go-to for clean, high-performance carbs.

Most men don’t fail because they’re lazy, broken, or incapable.They fail because they’re stuck in trying.“I’m trying to get healthy.”“I’m trying to be more disciplined.”“I’m trying to stay consistent.”And without realizing it, that one word is keeping them trapped.In this episode, Dane breaks down the identity shift that separates men who stay stuck from men who actually change. Not temporarily. Not for a few motivated weeks. But permanently.This conversation goes deeper than workouts, meal plans, or willpower. Dane explains why behavior change without identity change always collapses, why motivation fades no matter how strong it feels in the moment, and why most men keep repeating the same cycle of starting over.You’ll learn how the language you use reinforces who you believe you are, why “trying” gives your brain permission to quit, and how to move from forcing habits to becoming the kind of man those habits come naturally to. Dane walks through the exact stages of identity change—deciding who you are, acting from identity instead of toward it, building evidence through action, and protecting that identity when life tests you.This episode is for the man who’s tired of negotiating with himself. The man who knows he wants more discipline, more consistency, more confidence but doesn’t want to rely on hype or motivation to get there.If you’re done “trying” and ready to become the man who simply does what needs to be done this episode will challenge you, confront you, and give you a framework you can apply immediately.Decide who you are.Act in alignment. 👉 TAKE MY FREE METABOLIC QUIZ HERE! Apply to work with Dane:Save your spot for a Dad Bod Sculptors Strategy Call and see if you qualify.👉 https://dadbodsculptors.typeform.com/to/LniWZZaP 💪 Stay Connected with Dad Bod Sculptors➤ Follow on Instagram: @dadbod_sculptors➤ Connect with me on Linkedin➤ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel 🔥 Official Partners & SponsorsOptimize your health with the exact tools we use in the Dad Bod Sculptors system:HD Muscle Supplements — Get Elite Protein, Supplements and Vitamins (Use code: DADBOD)Elev8 Cream of Rice — My go-to for clean, high-performance carbs.

In this episode, Dane breaks down one of the most overlooked truths among high-level men: your body is your brand — and the world reads it before you ever open your mouth. Most men don’t realize how much their physical presence impacts their confidence, leadership, marriage, business performance, and identity… until it’s already slipping.Dane pulls from Tim Grover’s lessons with Michael Jordan, showing how physical dominance amplifies psychological advantage and how this same principle applies to CEOs, founders, sales leaders, and any man who wants to command a room. When your body weakens, every area of your life feels it. When it strengthens, everything elevates with it.This is the wake-up call for any man whose professional identity has outgrown his physical identity… and he knows it. You’ll learn why winners prioritize their health first, why your edge fades “drip by drip,” and how rebuilding your physical standard becomes the foundation for becoming unrecognizable in the next 12 months.If you’re ready to stop negotiating with yourself and start winning again this episode is your shift.And, as always, the application to work with Dane is inside the show notes. 👉 TAKE MY FREE METABOLIC QUIZ HERE! Apply to work with Dane:Save your spot for a Dad Bod Sculptors Strategy Call and see if you qualify.👉 https://dadbodsculptors.typeform.com/to/LniWZZaP 💪 Stay Connected with Dad Bod Sculptors➤ Follow on Instagram: @dadbod_sculptors➤ Connect with me on Linkedin➤ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel 🔥 Official Partners & SponsorsOptimize your health with the exact tools we use in the Dad Bod Sculptors system:HD Muscle Supplements — Get Elite Protein, Supplements and Vitamins (Use code: DADBOD)Elev8 Cream of Rice — My go-to for clean, high-performance carbs.

This episode is the brutally honest breakdown every man over 35 needs to hear especially if you’ve been slipping, stalling, or constantly “starting over Monday.” Dane dives straight into the uncomfortable truth: you’re not failing because you’re weak… you’re failing because no one ever taught you how to recover fast when life punches you in the mouth.Most guys think inconsistency is a motivation problem. It’s not. It’s a reaction problem. One off-plan meal, one stressful day, one missed workout and suddenly it spirals into guilt, shame, and a week-long collapse. But the slip didn’t ruin you… the emotional meltdown did.In this raw and practical episode, Dane walks you through the exact 24-Hour Rebound Rule he teaches inside Dad Bod Sculptors the same system that took him from 30% body fat down to 6%, and the same system his busiest clients use to stay solid through travel, late nights, holidays, and chaos. You’ll learn how to reset your hydration, digestion, inflammation, mindset, and daily habits so you can get back on track in a single day without punishment cardio, starving yourself, or “making up for it.”This one hit hard because it’s real.It’s tactical.And it gives you control back.By the end, you’ll understand why consistency isn’t about perfection it’s about mastering recovery. When you learn how to steady yourself fast, everything changes: your discipline, your confidence, your energy, and the way your family sees you show up.If you’re ready to stop slipping… and finally become the man who rebounds immediately instead of restarting every Monday… this episode will show you exactly how. 👉 TAKE MY FREE METABOLIC QUIZ HERE! Apply to work with Dane:Save your spot for a Dad Bod Sculptors Strategy Call and see if you qualify.👉 https://dadbodsculptors.typeform.com/to/LniWZZaP 💪 Stay Connected with Dad Bod Sculptors➤ Follow on Instagram: @dadbod_sculptors➤ Connect with me on Linkedin➤ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel 🔥 Official Partners & SponsorsOptimize your health with the exact tools we use in the Dad Bod Sculptors system:HD Muscle Supplements — Get Elite Protein, Supplements and Vitamins (Use code: DADBOD)Elev8 Cream of Rice — My go-to for clean, high-performance carbs.

This is one of the rawest, most human episodes Dane has ever recorded. No tactics. No checklists. No surface-level motivation. Just the truth about the moment everything in his life came crashing into clarity and the man he had to confront in the mirror at age 42.In this episode, Dane takes you behind the curtain into the version of himself he never wanted his kids to see the overworked, stressed, inconsistent, “successful but falling apart on the inside” version that so many men silently relate to. He opens up about the denial, the excuses, the quiet decline that happens when a man tells himself “It’s just a season” while his health, energy, discipline, and leadership are all slowly slipping.What follows is the moment that broke him… and also rebuilt him. A moment where he realized his kids weren’t going to inherit the man, he wanted to be they were going to inherit the man he was every day. That realization became the spark that led to the hardest 90 days of his life, the collapse of old habits, and the emergence of a stronger, more aligned, more intentional father, husband, leader, and man.This episode shows you what transformation actually looks like on the inside. The battle with the old identity. The resistance. The self-negotiation. The painful honesty. And ultimately, what happens when a man finally decides he’s done living below his potential and starts becoming the version of himself his family deserves.If you’re a man who feels “off,” disconnected, tired, stuck, or like you’re living two different lives the one people see and the one you actually feel Episode 83 will hit you in the chest.This is the episode that reminds you:You’re not weak.You’re not broken.You’re just overdue.And the man you want to become is still there waiting for you to take the first step. 👉 TAKE MY FREE METABOLIC QUIZ HERE! Apply to work with Dane:Save your spot for a Dad Bod Sculptors Strategy Call and see if you qualify.👉 https://dadbodsculptors.typeform.com/to/LniWZZaP 💪 Stay Connected with Dad Bod Sculptors➤ Follow on Instagram: @dadbod_sculptors➤ Connect with me on Linkedin➤ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel 🔥 Official Partners & SponsorsOptimize your health with the exact tools we use in the Dad Bod Sculptors system:HD Muscle Supplements — Get Elite Protein, Supplements and Vitamins (Use code: DADBOD)Elev8 Cream of Rice — My go-to for clean, high-performance carbs.

And once you see it, you can’t unsee it. This is the wake-up call to stop choosing the “easy” path that’s actually destroying your energy, your potential, your relationships, and your physical health.Life doesn’t get easier. But Episode 82 shows you how to choose the hard that transforms you. 👉 TAKE MY FREE METABOLIC QUIZ HERE! Apply to work with Dane:Save your spot for a Dad Bod Sculptors Strategy Call and see if you qualify.👉 https://dadbodsculptors.typeform.com/to/LniWZZaP 💪 Stay Connected with Dad Bod Sculptors➤ Follow on Instagram: @dadbod_sculptors➤ Connect with me on Linkedin➤ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel 🔥 Official Partners & SponsorsOptimize your health with the exact tools we use in the Dad Bod Sculptors system:HD Muscle Supplements — Get Elite Protein, Supplements and Vitamins (Use code: DADBOD)Elev8 Cream of Rice — My go-to for clean, high-performance carbs.

Most guys spend all their focus on mornings, workouts, and hitting the gym… but here’s the brutal truth: your transformation isn’t made during the day — it’s made at night. How you end your day determines how well you recover, how your hormones balance, how your muscles rebuild, and how much energy you wake up with tomorrow.In this episode, I’m breaking down the Evening Protocol — a simple, 5-minute routine that optimizes your recovery, your sleep, and your entire transformation cycle. This isn’t about spending hours or taking random supplements. It’s about giving your body exactly what it needs while you sleep to repair, rebuild, and come back stronger the next day.We’re covering the core ingredients and strategies that most men overlook:Fiber+ — to stabilize blood sugar, improve digestion, and prevent bloating overnight.Ashwagandha 600mg — to lower stress, regulate cortisol, support testosterone, and improve sleep quality.Vitamin D3 + K2 — critical for hormone production, muscle function, and overall health.Magnesium Absorb — to relax your nervous system, improve sleep, aid recovery, and regulate blood sugar.Cort-Eaze — a plant-based cortisol-regulating blend to help you relax and resist everyday pressures.I’ll walk you step-by-step through my exact evening protocol: how to wind down, set up your bedroom for optimal sleep, take your evening supplements, and create a habit that guarantees deep, restorative sleep. You’ll learn how to track your progress, compare Day 1 to Day 7, and see results fast.If you’ve been going through the motions, feeling drained, waking up unrefreshed, or sabotaging your recovery without even realizing it — this episode will give you the tools to take control of your nights, so your days actually matter.This is your blueprint for total 24-hour optimization: wake up ready, recover like a pro, and build the body, energy, and performance you actually want.Start tonight. Your body will recover better. Your sleep will improve. Your transformation will accelerate. 👉 TAKE MY FREE METABOLIC QUIZ HERE! Apply to work with Dane:Save your spot for a Dad Bod Sculptors Strategy Call and see if you qualify.👉 https://dadbodsculptors.typeform.com/to/LniWZZaP 💪 Stay Connected with Dad Bod Sculptors➤ Follow on Instagram: @dadbod_sculptors➤ Connect with me on Linkedin➤ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel 🔥 Official Partners & SponsorsOptimize your health with the exact tools we use in the Dad Bod Sculptors system:HD Muscle Supplements — Get Elite Protein, Supplements and Vitamins (Use code: DADBOD)Elev8 Cream of Rice — My go-to for clean, high-performance carbs.

If you’ve been telling yourself you’re tired because you’re “just getting older,” this episode is going to flip that belief on its head.In Episode 79, Dane breaks down what’s really behind your constant fatigue, and spoiler alert: it’s not your age, it’s your habits. From poor sleep and nonstop screen time to blood sugar crashes and chronic stress, you’ll uncover the silent “energy leaks” that are draining your life force every single day.Dane exposes how most men have normalized exhaustion. They blame age, stress, or work, but in reality, they’re living in ways that create fatigue. The good news? You can fix it.

From hydration and structured morning routines to walking after meals and improving sleep quality, this episode gives you a complete blueprint to rebuild energy from the ground up.Dane reminds you that energy isn’t something you “get”, it’s something you create. Through movement, nutrition, recovery, and discipline, you can literally rewire your biology to produce more power, focus, and drive than ever before.If you’re done feeling sluggish, foggy, or “just surviving,” this is your wake-up call.Your body isn’t broken, it’s begging you to live like it’s built to.Plug the leaks.

This one’s gonna sting a bit, but it’s one every father needs to hear.In this episode, Dane drops a truth bomb about real leadership at home. He shares why he fired his kids’ judo and jiu-jitsu coaches, not because they were bad, but because his boys weren’t executing. They were showing up, but not doing the work. And that’s the trap too many dads fall into: thinking that signing up equals showing up.Dane breaks down the uncomfortable truth that coaching doesn’t create greatness, execution does. You can buy every lesson, program, and piece of gear, but if the effort’s missing, it’s just expensive babysitting. He challenges fathers to stop outsourcing accountability and start embodying the standards they preach.Five years ago, Dane admits he couldn’t have made that call, because he wasn’t living it himself. But once he raised his own standards, in his body, discipline, and mindset, he could finally lead from the front.This episode isn’t about sports. It’s about legacy. About showing your kids that excellence is earned, not bought. That “showing up” isn’t enough without execution. And that the standard you live is the standard they learn.You’ll walk away convicted, inspired, and maybe a little uncomfortable, because that’s what growth feels like.Fatherhood isn’t about keeping your kids comfortable. It’s about preparing them for life.Hold the line. Model the standard. Lead from the front.Burn the excuses. Build the man. Be the standard. 👉 TAKE MY FREE METABOLIC QUIZ HERE! Apply to work with Dane:Save your spot for a Dad Bod Sculptors Strategy Call and see if you qualify.👉 https://dadbodsculptors.typeform.com/to/LniWZZaP 💪 Stay Connected with Dad Bod Sculptors➤ Follow on Instagram: @dadbod_sculptors➤ Connect with me on Linkedin➤ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel 🔥 Official Partners & SponsorsOptimize your health with the exact tools we use in the Dad Bod Sculptors system:HD Muscle Supplements — Get Elite Protein, Supplements and Vitamins (Use code: DADBOD)Elev8 Cream of Rice — My go-to for clean, high-performance carbs.

Most men don’t fail in the gym, they fail in the mirror.In this brutally honest episode, Dane dives into the Mirror Test, a gut-check every man needs but most avoid. Because the truth is, your reflection doesn’t lie… but you do.It’s not about vanity. It’s about awareness.You didn’t wake up forty pounds heavier overnight, it happened slowly, one skipped workout and one “I’ll start Monday” at a time. Over time, your brain adjusted. You stopped noticing the decline. You looked in the mirror and saw what you wanted to see, not what’s really there.Dane exposes how men lie to themselves, sucking in their gut, finding the best lighting, telling themselves “it’s not that bad.” He explains why progress photos and objective data (like weight, waist size, and energy levels) are the only way to cut through the illusion. And he breaks down how body dysmorphia doesn’t just mean seeing yourself worse than you are, for most men, it’s the opposite. They see themselves better than they actually are.You’ll learn how to use the mirror as feedback instead of validation, why comfort is killing your self-awareness, and how to take back control through brutal honesty and action.If you’re ready to stop lying to yourself, face reality, and rebuild from the truth, this episode will shake you awake.Your move: Take the Dad Bod Assessment Quiz at DadBodSculptors.com and get a real plan built on data, not denial.Face the truth.

In this episode, Dane gets real about the Dad Tax the invisible price your kids pay when you settle for “good enough.” It’s not about money or time. It’s about the habits, mindset, and example your kids inherit from you every single day.They’re watching everything what you eat, how you handle stress, whether you follow through on your word, and how you treat their mom.

Every choice is teaching them something about discipline, resilience, and self-respect.Dane breaks down what the Dad Tax really costs from your kids inheriting poor habits and low energy to watching their father quietly give up. But he also shares the other side: what happens when you transform. When you take ownership of your health, your kids don’t just see a physical change they see a new standard.
