From Dead Nazis to Dynamic Bands: Josh Salzman's Unconventional Fitness Wisdom

Send us a text

Fitness expert Josh Salzman shares his unconventional but highly effective approach to health, healing, and performance through the lens of his philosophy-driven training method. We explore why most fitness approaches fail and how simple changes in thinking, eating patterns, and recovery can transform your physical wellbeing.

• 95% of fitness is mental—how you think, how you eat, how you sleep—only 5% is what you physically do
• Pain can sometimes be a path to healing through proper myofascial release techniques
• Forearm strength is critically overlooked yet essential for preventing injuries and improving performance 
• Intermittent fasting gives your gut necessary rest periods and activates healing through ketosis
• Most anti-inflammatory medications and supplements create more problems by damaging gut health
• Sugar acts like "rust" in your body, creating inflammation and preventing healing
• Small muscles make big muscles stronger—focus on often-neglected areas like wrists and forearms
• Alignment and posture issues often begin in the feet and travel up through the entire body
• Recovery is where strength happens, not during training—"you want to get in shape quickly? Start slowly"
