Dr. Nick (aka The Fittest Doc) joins Jocelyn Rylee to unpack how CrossFit shaped his approach to medicine. They dig into lifestyle versus pharmaceuticals, the role of identity in lasting change, and why doctors need to prioritize their own health. From the sickness-wellness-fitness continuum to why grip strength and VO₂ max matter, this conversation is a clear look at how fitness can change the trajectory of chronic disease.
Cholesterol isn't the villain the media Big Pharma would like you to believe. It's actually an essential molecule that keeps your cells intact, your brain functioning, and even helps fight infections. The real story of heart disease risk lies not in your "bad" cholesterol levels, but in markers your doctor probably isn't checking, and the reason why might have more to do with what can be sold than what actually predicts your risk.
