Welcome to the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, a show that Brian now feels he can cut the recording on Christine if he does not like her introductory remarks.

Gail also discusses what it was like to be raised by an Indian mother and English father who believed that paying it forward was a way of life. And if you were wondering, Gail was an exceptionally talented runner in her day who just happens to hail from a some very decorated Bannisters, including distant uncle Sir Roger, the first man to run a mile in under 4 minutes and one super-fast nephew, Olympic Gold medalist Matthew Centrowitz Jr.

From training the JETS to being flown around-the-country to work with top NBA players, Gail has made quite a name for herself as a flexibility specialist. I guarantee you will have a few laughs listening to Gail share some of her crazy stories of working with pro-athletes and beyond!

“I was only 14-years-old, and I was not like other kids...I was diagnosed with juvenile arthritis...I had to rely on medicine…I was not going to give up.”

Logan, a super sweet, intelligent, “old-soul,” as her mother lovingly refers to her, endured years of physical and emotional obstacles and many times of uncertainty. From long trips to and from her specialists, to undergoing various chemo treatments in an attempt to put her disease into remission, Logan was able to remain focused on her schoolwork and even managed to make it to the Cheerleading World Championships three times where she earned an 11th place ranking! Logan is wise beyond her years as she proves while discussing the impact that eating a healthy diet, exercise and a positive mindset has had on her ability to reduce flare-ups and feel good.

Delivered with humor and uplifting messages of hope, Mindy talks about why she chose to write this book and how she feels compelled to educate the world about the healing power of food. Mindy recalls what it was like after her husband, Bruce, was diagnosed with prostate cancer and how they were able to transform their lives and improve their health by eating a plant-based diet. While Mindy and Bruce provide a wealth of knowledge about the plant-based lifestyle in their One Day to Wellness Certifications and workshops, Mindy felt men (and women) would benefit from what “popped up” from her research to diminish erectile dysfunction and other health-related issues. Be on the lookout for Mindy’s “penis tips” at the end of every chapter and learn how eating Nitrate Oxide enriched foods are shown to increase blood flow to “certain” areas in the body.

Before the end of the show, Bruce Mylrea gets in on the action and gives us a preview of his own book, ​ A Plant Powered Approach to Prostate Cancer. ​

Episode 143 - Medical Fitness Tour 2020 Recap - Christine & Brian Rally for Doctors to Prescribe Fitness & Nutrition 

“We all share the same mission; we want to improve the quality of peoples’ lives through movement and nutrition. Let’s shift the paradigm!” -Christine

In Episode 143, Brian and Christine reunite for a powerful conversation about shifting the paradigm that exists between the current state of medical professionals and fitness professionals around the world.  Christine talks about her recent trip to lecture at the Medical Fitness National Conference at the University of Irvine and discusses her trademarked facial fitness and rehabilitation program, Let’s FACE It Together™.  Both Brian and Christine elaborate on some of the latest research and studies to support the collaboration of both professions. While the traditional doctor “treats problems,” the fitness professional is interested in preventing problems and reducing the onset of diseases.  Let’s geek out on the research and studies that prove a healthy diet that includes movement will naturally lead you to live a more quality life! If you have yet to hear about the MedFit Network and Education Foundation, a non-profit organization spearheaded by Lisa Dougherty, it’s time to check it out and join the movement. 

Let’s Shift the Paradigm!
