Ever wondered how the struggles of weight gain and mental health can lead to a journey of self-discovery and profound transformation? Join us as we sit down with Mark Paisant, a certified personal trainer and host of the Relatively Normal and 6AM Run podcasts. Mark takes us through his inspiring path from collegiate soccer player to battling significant weight gain and chronic pain, ultimately shedding over 75 pounds through running. But Mark's story goes beyond physical fitness; he delves into the importance of balancing it with mental well-being, utilizing self-awareness and intentionality to achieve continuous improvement in both areas.
In this episode, Mark reveals his unique approach to coaching young athletes, integrating technical training with strength and agility exercises, while placing a strong emphasis on mental health support. He reflects on how he turned his own methods of using exercise to manage stress into a productive force for his clients. Furthermore, Mark shares his late diagnosis of ADD in adulthood, the challenges he faced, and the life-changing clarity brought by medication. His insights into the cultural attitudes toward mental health and the necessity of seeking therapy add another layer to the conversation.
Mark also discusses his podcast, Relatively Normal, created to provide a safe space for mental health discussions, especially focusing on the experiences of black males. Through interviews with therapists, doctors, and other experts, Mark aims to help listeners feel less alone and more understood. Additionally, he offers a glimpse into the evolution of the 6AM Run podcast, transforming it into a broader lifestyle show with diverse guests. This episode is a compelling blend of personal responsibility, mental health advocacy, and the transformative power of fitness and mindfulness.
