  • Why You Quit After 3 Weeks (And How to Fix It in 2026)
    Dec 30 2025
    If you set goals every New Year… and then forget them by February, this episode is for you. In this final Weaponize Body podcast of 2025, I’m breaking down the exact goal-setting system that helped me stop drifting, stop quitting, and start hitting targets year after year. This isn’t hype—this is a practical framework you can use to plan your best year in 2026across the 4 areas that actually control your life: body (fitness/health), being (faith/spirituality), balance (family/relationships), and business (money/finances). You’ll learn how to start with a Fact Map (where you are right now), choose goals that actually excite you using reasonable / radical / ridiculous targets, and then chunk it back into quarterly missions so you don’t crash after the first few weeks. The real secret? Weekly review. If you don’t review it, you drift back to your default. This episode gives you a step-by-step way to build better behaviors, raise your standards, and stay on track—without needing motivation to carry you. What You’ll Learn / Highlights How to build a Fact Map so your goals start from reality (not vibes) The 4 core categories: Body, Being, Balance, Business What to write under “facts” for fitness, faith, family, and finances How to identify top 4 things working vs not working in each category How to choose 4 key adjustments that move the needle fast The reasonable / radical / ridiculous method to pick goals that stretch you How to chunk back yearly goals into Q1 quarterly missions The “Start / Stop / Sustain” behavior list that prevents quitting Why weekly review (Sunday reset) is the difference-maker for consistency Learn more about Dr. Ryan Hewitt by visiting the following links: Dr. Ryan Hewitt Website: https://www.drryanhewitt.com/ The Weaponized Body Program: https://www.theweaponizedbody.com/ Weaponized wellness HRT: https://www.weaponizedwellness.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theweaponizeddad/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theweaponizedbody Learn more about your ad choices.

  • TRT: The Complete Guide (Labs, Dosing & What Doctors Miss)
    Dec 18 2025
    Confused about Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)—or already on it and not feeling right? In this complete guide, Dr. Ryan Hewitt breaks down when TRT makes sense, when it doesn’t, and why most TRT problems come from poor management—not testosterone. What You’ll Learn / Highlights (3–7 bullets) The 2 types of low T (primary vs. secondary) and how they show up on labs Why “testosterone crashes with age” is often a metabolic + lifestyle issue The bloodwork most men aren’t getting (and what it should include) The real risks of cookie-cutter TRT clinic protocols How TRT can impact lipids, blood pressure, hematocrit/hemoglobin (and common mistakes) Why crushing estrogen with aromatase inhibitors can backfire The truth about TRT + fertility and what to consider first A practical “6-month effort” framework before jumping on TRT (for many men) Educational content only.

  • Victim Mentality Is Killing Men: Here’s How to Break It
    Dec 11 2025
    Is victim mentality quietly wrecking your health, marriage, or business? In this episode, Dr. Ryan Hewitt breaks down how victim thinking weakens men and women—and how radical personal responsibility can weaponize your body, mind, and spirit. If you’re tired of feeling stuck and repeating the same patterns, this is your wake-up call on victim mentality and personal responsibility. What You’ll Learn / Highlights The real definition of victim mentality (and why it’s way more subtle than crying in a corner) The everyday excuses—“I’m too busy,” “no one gets my situation,” “I don’t have support”—that are secretly destroying your progress How Dr. Ryan’s own injuries, business struggles, and near-divorce exposed his victim mindset The 6 core principles of personal responsibility that can transform your health, emotions, relationships, and money Why your emotions, your health, and your results are 100% your responsibility The difference between a renter’s mentality and an owner’s mentality in business and life How raising your standards and discipline creates more freedom than any quick fix or “perfect conditions” ever will Learn more about Dr. Ryan Hewitt by visiting the following links: Dr. Ryan Hewitt Website: https://www.drryanhewitt.com/ The Weaponized Body Program: https://www.theweaponizedbody.com/ Weaponized wellness HRT: https://www.weaponizedwellness.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theweaponizeddad/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theweaponizedbody Learn more about your ad choices.
