Andres shares his personal journey from aspiring doctor in Venezuela to top-level sports dietitian, working with elite athletes across the NFL, MLB, and more.The conversation covers:Mindset lessons from pro athletes and how everyday men can adopt a performance-focused lifestyle.Andres’ signature “Three R” framework for transformation:Reset: Audit your current nutrition and lifestyle habits.Rebuild: Shift to flexible, goal-aligned systems (no rigid meal plans).Retain: Build sustainable frameworks to maintain results long-term.He also introduces the “Core Five” daily habits for a strong foundation:Prioritize protein.Stay hydrated.Get enough fiber.Don’t skip meals (especially relevant for men trying to avoid nighttime binges).Prioritize movement—even in short bursts.Brad and Andres also discuss advanced strategies like macro tracking and supplement use—only after foundational habits are in place. They both agree: most men over 40 are looking for longevity, not six-pack abs, and that means building a life that’s strong, balanced, and sustainable.🔬 Andres teases upcoming experiments on his YouTube and Instagram, where he'll test both a Whole Foods diet with seed oils and a 30-day carnivore diet, measuring performance and biomarkers.If you're interested in online personal training or being a guest on my podcast, "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," you can reach me at [email protected] or visit my website at:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comAdditionally, check out my Yelp reviews for my local business, Evolve Gym in Huntington Beach, at https://bit.ly/3GCKRzV
