Season 5 Finale: Wrapping Up Our Member Interview Series | Dean Pohlman | Better Man Podcast Ep. 126

This episode is the season finale of Season 5, where I focused exclusively on interviewing Man Flow Yoga Members about their fitness journey. I wanted to talk to down to earth guys who were making actual improvements in their health to help you understand what other men are doing to get healthier.

While some Members had life-saving stories, others were struggling with their health and fitness or still on their journey to their healthiest self.

But each Member Interview had at least one thing in common…

You Don’t Always Have To Be Healthy To Be Healthy | Richard G. | Better Man Podcast Ep. 125

You Don’t Always Have To Be Healthy To Be Healthy | Richard G. | Better Man Podcast Ep. 125

Today’s guest, our web developer Richard, has practiced Man Flow Yoga longer than any other person. He watched a few of my first ever YouTube workouts… and 12 years later, he’s still doing Man Flow Yoga 3-5x a week.

Even though he hates working out!

Since Richard has been doing Man Flow Yoga workouts for so long—and because he used the workouts to recover quicker and almost return full functionality to his knee after getting diagnosed with a rare cancer in his knee—he’s chock-full of wisdom, especially if you don’t feel like being healthy all the time.

The Struggles of Starting A Weight Loss Journey | Will C. | Better Man Podcast Ep. 124

The Struggles of Starting A Weight Loss Journey | Will C. | Better Man Podcast Ep. 124

Today’s guest, Thomas, is pretty new to Man Flow Yoga. He’s only been doing it for a few months—and unlike most guests, his fitness journey started a couple of years before discovering Man Flow Yoga. 

One day, when his hand was full with various medications he had to take because of type 2 diabetes and adult ADHD, he realized that if his life continued on this track, he might not be here in 20 years.

And so, he started taking baby steps: First he started walking every day. Then he joined Fit Father Project and dialed in his nutrition. And now he’s doing Man Flow Yoga consistently and preparing to incorporate strength training for the first time in his life.

How John Used Man Flow Yoga to Recover from a Mini-Stroke | John S. | Better Man Podcast Ep. 122

How John Used Man Flow Yoga to Recover from a Mini-Stroke | John S. | Better Man Podcast Ep. 122

Can yoga help you recover from a stroke? Well, it was a massive help to today’s guest, John…

About two years ago, John suffered a mini-stroke due to a hole in his heart that never completely closed. While John’s been overweight for most of his adult life, he was still active: Lifting and doing yoga. And so the mini-stroke shocked him—especially because it happened at the ripe age of 37.

But his recovery was even more shocking. At least it was to his NHS doctors. About a week after his stroke, he picked up his yoga habit again, keeping it light by following the Absolute Beginners Challenge. And when he went back for his follow-up check-up, his doctors told him that he didn’t need physical rehab because of his yoga practice.

How To Get Back Into Exercise After A Total Hip Replacement | Christopher J. | Better Man Podcast Ep. 121

When today’s guest, Christopher, turned 40, he had a total hip replacement due to an undiagnosed bilateral hip dysplasia he suffered from his whole life.

And ever since, Christopher had an on again and off again relationship with his fitness. He was particularly good at joining a gym, being consistent for six months, then falling off for a year before going back.

And his biggest obstacle was actually leaving his home to go to the gym. Once he left his house, he completed his workout, and always felt better after. But leaving the house felt impossible for large stretches of time.

Then, one day, he discovered Man Flow Yoga…
