The Fit Dad Project is the podcast for busy dads and men over 40 who are tired of feeling overweight, exhausted, and stuck in the cycle of starting over every Monday. Hosted by Derek Schell, certified nutrition coach, fitness trainer, and founder of The Minimalist Gym, this show cuts through the noise and delivers practical, no-BS strategies to help you lose fat, build muscle, and reclaim your energy without spending hours in the gym or following restrictive diets. Each episode focuses on the fundamentals that actually move the needle: • Simple, high-protein nutrition • Efficient 30–45 minute workouts • Sustainable fat loss • Hormone and metabolic health • Mindset and habit change • Stress management and recovery • Becoming the kind of man who leads by example • And some fun stuff mixed in as well! Whether you're a father, husband, and professional who has put everyone else first for year
