Episode Synopsis

This week we sit down with 5am Thunderbird Michael Lowe, better known as Strict Mike.  Mike is an independent thinker so I knew he would be a great interview.  He tells his 100# weight-loss story and we dive into our thoughts on nutrition, fitness, and habits.  If you have knee pain or issues you will definitely want to hear our discussion on Kneesovertoesguy!  Finally, we talk the role of physical stress/fitness in supporting mental well being, balancing emotional stress, and making us more robust in every area of our life.  We are building a BOLT Health Casino....what do you think all those LED lights are for?!?!?!
Mike also took video of The BOLTcast and broke the interview down in chapters.  You can watch the YouTube video here https://youtu.be/e7k_OQG5UoQ
