The Nick Bare Podcast

I’m sharing five recent reflections on listening, serving my family without keeping score, building real community, focusing on what matters in training, and learning to rest.

Nick Saban’s “Importance of Nothing” speech got me thinking about entitlement—what we believe we’re owed and how that mindset shapes the way we work, respond, and live.

Over the last 90 days, I lost about 10 pounds and got leaner without crash dieting, starving myself, avoiding social situations, or sacrificing my training and recovery. I did it by locking in - not through extreme restriction, but by narrowing my focus, reducing unnecessary decisions, and giving the process enough time to work.

In this episode, I explain what it really means to lock in, why some people may underperform to avoid raising the standard expected of them, and the difference between moving with urgency and living in a hurry. Then I break down the five changes I made.

In this episode, I share five things I wish I knew before becoming a dad. I talk about treating children as the cornerstone of an unfinished life, staying ambitious without letting work control the home, prioritizing what matters when balance feels impossible, becoming an intentional father, leading through the example I set, and building confidence through curiosity, courage, and competence.

This is not a list of perfect answers. It is an honest look at what the last four years have taught me and what I am still working to become. Whether you are a father, preparing to be one, or thinking about the kind of family you want to lead, I hope this helps you examine your priorities, strengthen your values, and show up with greater intention.

In this episode, I break down the planning system I use before every trip and the practical decisions that help me stay consistent on the road. I cover how I scout restaurants, grocery stores, gyms, and running routes; what food, supplements, and hydration I pack; how I prioritize protein; and how I rearrange strength sessions, use vacations as deload weeks, and lean on running when time is limited.

You do not need a perfect plan or a rigid schedule to keep making progress. Build enough structure to support your goals, stay flexible when the trip demands it, and make the time for your health without taking time away from the responsibilities that matter most.

On September 6, I’m relaunching the same app with a new experience built around G1M Daily: six weekly hybrid workouts, community Q&As, mindset resources, and nutrition guidance designed to help you stay consistent.

In this episode, I explain why I’m returning to the app, break down the first week of training, and answer the most common questions about cost, equipment, where to begin, missed workouts, working sets, and adding more cardio.

This is more than a library of workouts. It’s a system built to help you keep showing up, train with purpose, and build a stronger body and mind.

I'm sharing five facts about goal setting I've learned across 14 years of building BPN including the military's aim-shoot-move framework to BHAGs, OKRs, why your goal has to excite you, why high achievers don't actually want rest, and the dangerous we-have-arrived syndrome that plants the seeds of decline.
