(00:01):
First three months of going intothe corporate world, I gained 30
lbs right out of the gate. 220 lbs was my heaviest.
Then I've realized I got to do something.
You're 50% likely to get cancer in your life.
There's a lot of things that arereally out of our control, but
you can't control is to be in the best position possible to
fight it and recover from it if you do get it.
We had to do a biopsy and in stage 2 prostate cancer, that
was a year in a superhuman. So that surgery went extremely
(00:23):
well. I was up and around that very
next weekend. What I find amazing is just how
little folks want to invest in themselves.
I'm Ryan Stevens. Doctor Taylor Waters, I'm Ben
Oliver. Welcome to the Superhuman show,
Yeah? So we are joined by Mr. Sean
Walsh. Welcome to the Superhuman show.
(00:46):
So for the listeners, just tell us about yourself in terms of
what do you do for work? What's your fitness journey
been? What was the kind of triggering
moment for you to join Superhumor?
And and then, yeah, I'm sure I have some questions once we get
rolling. Yeah, for starters, I appreciate
being on the show. This is fantastic.
(01:07):
I watch you guys all the time and to be a part of it, it's
really good. My background is banking, so 30
years of cash management, of moving the payments around for
the banks. As banks do a lot of things.
Moving money is only one small part of it, but.
Any tips? Yeah.
We we got no money to move. I can have money to move.
(01:28):
From here to here, God. That someone's got an easy job.
You know, my, my fitness journey, it's been really
straight out of out of college. I was working the the bar
industry and running up and downthe stairs and, you know,
working is a bar back and a bartender.
And then the first three months of going into the corporate
(01:51):
world, I was pitching and teaching a credit union package.
And it would be late to be like small credit unions and churches
with stuff in the in their basements and you're just
working until 10:00 at night. And then you'd go eat and lay
down and go to sleep. And I gained 30 lbs right out of
the gate in the first three months and never lost it, right.
(02:12):
So it's always been that struggle of and I always
recognized it because I was always, you know, fit through
through my entire, you know, youngster hood.
So it's, you know, to put on that kind of weight and always
struggled with it. And I'd go ups and downs in a
little bit. What I was telling Ryan over my
journey with with superhumans for the last two years and the
different plateaus that we got to when we, you know, broke 190
(02:35):
broke 200. Let's start there at 5 seven,
220 lbs was my heaviest. And then I realized I got to do
something. And then we'll get to you know
what, what triggered my, my eye with what John's, John Manson's
advertising. But then, as you know, I've gone
through my fitness journey and got under the 200 mark and then
under the 190 mark and then under the 170 mark.
(02:57):
And I'm like, I've never been this this light since I've been.
Out of college, I think the, the, the three month weight gain
that you mentioned, I feel like that's a very, very, very common
thing that happens when you change roles and you go from an
active job to a, to a desk job or a sedentary 1 where you're in
an office doing meetings and things.
(03:18):
It's the I, I don't have time. And, and, and of course, when
you're trying to grow your career and everything, that is
the priority and you sacrifice other things.
So, so yeah, like kind of in terms of the time, the timeline,
where was the kind of tipping point where, you know, obviously
you're hyper successful, where you were kind of looking at it
saying, right, this thing is, isdone now, but I need to start re
(03:41):
priority prioritizing my health and and my fitness.
Kind of what was the that kind of turning moment?
And then like you said about thesuperhuman kind of ads and
things. In your right over the 30 years
of my career, you know, the 1st 1520 years, it was just work
right, work hard, play hard, didn't worry about the food,
didn't worry about the alcohol and drinks and you're doing
stuff with, you know, back in the Today, it's frowned upon on
(04:03):
anymore, but you'd go drinking with your your staff, you get to
know them. It was, it was, you know,
Friday, Saturday, the. Asian way but do business unless
you get drunk. Well, yeah.
And it was such a, and you get to learn about your staff and
things and it's just we don't dothat anymore to the detriment,
especially with, you know, once you got through COVID, it's just
a different environment. But that's how it was.
(04:24):
And that's to me was what I needed to do to connect with my
people. And but you know, once you get,
once I got through COVID and, and those things are just, that
isn't how people relate anymore.I'm like, well, that's how I
relate that I'm like, all right,well, it's time to time to do
that. And I never put the emphasis on
the nutrition. That's the biggest part of what
(04:45):
I've learned with superhumans. You know, I'll be running and
working out and working really hard, but still be eating,
eating like crap, not documenting anything, not paying
attention to the macros. And that was the the the turning
point for me of having any of the weight come off.
So what, what age were you when you decided to make that change?
(05:06):
I think a lot of people, they find themselves once they've got
to a certain age, they're like, oh, well, it's done now.
Like I'm, I'm, I'm too old to start this because you're almost
like embarking on a whole new Ave. at, you know, at, at
whatever age did you get started?
Not probably mid 40s. Mid 40s when you start was when
you start your fitness journey. No.
Well, I would try on and off to lose weight, but not put a ton
(05:28):
of it into it and not totally not care, but I've sacrificed.
But with what I had to do in my relationships and my work versus
how hard am I going to work at this when I'm putting in, you
know, 10 hours a day? And then how old were you when
you came into Superhuman? Two years ago, so early 50s.
OK, so I had been trying to do anumber of things when I hit the
(05:48):
220 mark, that was probably 2 years before I joined, so about
four years ago. And I'm like, all right, this is
way too heavy. What I was really impressed with
this showing because obviously the trick when he was before he
was starting, obviously he was prioritizing his career and
obviously he put himself on the back burner.
He actually had to prioritize his career again within the
programme, didn't you? Because obviously you had to,
(06:11):
you lost your job, but his progress still remained moving
in the right direction, which isone of the key things that I saw
because what what was previouslythat held him back happened
again. But he was still able to make
progress throughout all that time, which was absolutely
phenomenal. And one thing he used to say to
me all the time was like, winners win.
I was like, where did that come from?
He's a great mindset. And like you got a tattooed on
(06:32):
his forearm. Yeah.
Winners win. Yeah.
So how so? Prior to Superhuman, when, when
you were say 220 and you know itwas two years until you signed
up with Superhuman, were you working with a personal trainer
or have you experienced anythinglike online coaching before?
Like, so this was your first experience of it and how how was
(06:53):
it getting lumped with a with a Welshman on the other side of
the world? Well, a couple, no, I hadn't
done anything of trying to, you know, get assistance.
I mean, there's so many things out there, right?
You guys talk about it all the time.
John talks about it all the timeof everything's out there for
free, right? And I figured I'd, you know,
just follow it and anything thatpops up, but it just wasn't get
(07:14):
me where I needed to be, you know, from from that
perspective. And then I saw John's ad of man,
he is talking to me with the executive.
And if you make this much money,because I mean, you know, I was
making the money, it's hey, he must be talking to me.
And then just the whole concept because you know, at this stage
(07:35):
of my life, right, I've, I've done the things, I've got the,
you know, the portfolios all setand the kids are all older now
and right to look forward and tostrive for something.
Now it's like I've done, I've travelled the world, I've done
everything. But then that, you know, the
superhuman was such a just A tagalone to say you're a superhuman
(07:55):
was, was what really, you know, drew me in with.
And again, the, the messaging and the marketing that John does
of what I'm struggling with. That was just, you know, hit hit
home on, you know, on so many different levels of me wanting
to do something like that and tobe, you know, shredded as as he
always says, right? And.
What's the what's the net weightloss from when you started to
(08:18):
now? As in when you started with
Superhuman to now. 55 lbs. Down 55 lbs and now what's the
goal because you're down 55 lbs Hall of Famer now coming up in
October. And then what's the, what's the
goal from here moving forward? Yeah, now I want to get into the
end of the muscle. Muscle building.
Muscle building pieces, yeah. The fun first.
(08:39):
And I know you guys are our fan favourites, but Grant's one of
my my models of to see Grant andwhat he had done.
Despite his personality, he's got a great physical
transformation I don't like. To say I wouldn't mind looking.
Like Grant either. Just watching what he
transitioned through in the samething with his kids, you know,
poking his belly and doing the different things and, and he's
(09:03):
just a monster and. That's awesome.
So was there anything unexpectedthat you weren't expecting from
Superhuman, whether it's workingwith Ryan or kind of anything
that you've gotten out of the program which you really didn't
think that it was going to be available or just kind of like a
by product of being in the program outside of just the
physical transformation that you've?
(09:24):
Got yeah without questions the network right to be a part of
when you think online it's so-called how well is net
network going to work? It's just online, but doing
these quarterly, these events and and doing enough where we
get the in on person and and I've sat with run numerous
times, even though you guys are on the other side of the pond to
have that connection to have like people wanting to do it and
(09:47):
it's not not, you know, always working towards the same.
How do you do this? How do you do that?
That network is incredible. The mental performance that John
does is amazing, right? And that's before you even get
to the to any kind of the fitness pieces of it.
Then we get into the fitness pieces of it and the, you know,
(10:08):
working with Ryan on an every week basis with the the check
in. So, you know, if I want to jump
on a Zoom, he just throws me theschedule and we have it booked
within a day and be able to sit there and talk through anything
versus, you know, trading, trading text.
But it's fully accessible. You guys respond so quickly.
I was, I was about to ask. I was like, does he get back to
you fast enough? Absolutely.
(10:30):
Speed is king. And we're different time zones,
right? And even that it's, it's
incredible of, of just, if I need anything, it's you guys
are, you know, in Ryan's, Ryan'sthere.
And I hear the same thing from all the other superhumans when
we come to these different events of just how quick you
guys are, which is key. I mean, I'm a big customer
service guy, 100%. If, if you're going to spend the
(10:52):
money, you have an expectation and you guys meet that
expectation and, and it's so hard to come by.
So it's so quick to take your money.
Our number one value in the coaching department is speed is
king. And so it's, it's that
efficiency, especially with, with guys like yourself, where
this stuff has to be integrated into your lifestyle because you
have all of these other things that you need to prioritize as
(11:13):
well versus if you're waiting two days for a response or you
can't get a hold of someone. So we, we do pride ourselves on
that and you know, being able toprovide that for you guys.
Some people claim premium product, but it's like they
don't deliver premium product, but it's like, yeah, we claim it
and we deliver. It, there's a there's a brand of
what was it? Is it like fence protector or
(11:35):
something in the UK called run seal?
And that slogan is just, it doeswhat it says on the 10.
And so I always like to think it's like we just, we do what we
say we're going to do and which which becomes less and less
these days, Like it's, you know,people talk a big game, but then
the actual outcome is, is much less very common.
But I like to say we kind of deliver on what we, what we,
what we say, we're going to the.Run seal of.
Fitness the run seal of fitness.Now we give us the new.
(11:57):
The new solution. So the, you know, the last
question I would have to, to wrap this up is if you, if you
were speaking to someone that was in a similar position.
So maybe they've, they've just kind of got to that point in
their career where, you know, very, very successful.
They've put on the pounds, you know, because they've had to
prioritize that for, for, for a decade or two and they're on the
fence of kind of, you know, I need to make a change.
(12:20):
I don't know if I'm ready for it.
I don't know if I'm going to have time.
What would your response be for someone like that?
And I get that question a lot. And it's what I find amazing is
just how little folks want to invest in themselves, right.
So when you have that price tag,which I feel is important to
weed out all the goofiness, thatwas the other thing exciting
(12:41):
thing about John is, I mean, people who are serious are the
only ones going to be in this. You're not going to get somebody
who's, you know, fly by night kind of.
Yeah, it sounds kind of cool. But.
And that's where I struggled with, you know, I'm from
Buffalo, NY, and a lot of the different folks that I interact
with because Buffalo is, you know, nine months of winter
that's in eating chicken wings and drinking beer and.
In the Country Club, yeah, get rid of that Country Club when
(13:04):
you. When you.
Pitch that, save some money, that is that.
Of you know what, what this means and what you get for the
for the money, that money is always such a a tipping point.
But I said after that, you got the network, you got the mental
performance, you know, in a little bit.
One of the other things that I found of huge value is the bio
hacks, which is the medical piece of right.
(13:25):
So when I got evaluated, jumpinginto the elite program right on
on day one, right and going through that piece, I did all
the blood work, which that was another amazing thing of just
looking at that. Never expected that from the
program is is a is a huge extra benefit.
But my PSA was high. So working with Rosie over at
Biohack, she goes, we, we can't do anything out of the ordinary
(13:48):
for you other than straight, straight supplements unless you
go get your, your prostate checked because that's a, that's
a high PSA, anything over, over 4.
So I'm looking, I went to my GP and I'm like, yeah, I'm doing
all these things. And I, of course, I took all the
supplement pieces to my GP and she's rolling her eyes and
things of looking at what she, yeah, there's nothing in there
(14:08):
that'll hurt you. But I don't know that all this
is necessary. I'm like, I just want to follow
the program, right? But I said I do.
One of the things that popped ismy PSA.
She goes, Nah, that number is, you know, it fluctuates over
what you eat on any given day. It's unnecessary.
You don't need to check them. So then I had my next check up
with with bio hacks and she's like, yeah, we still can't do
anything for you unless you go get an MRI.
(14:29):
Get an MRI and get the prostate check.
I'm like, I get it. So I went back and had to
struggle again with my GP. So I said, listen, I'm asking
for my dad had prostate cancer. I'm over 50.
She goes, yeah, you're right. It's time.
Same thing. I went into the urologist.
He's giving me grief. I don't know what you need to be
doing all this. I'm like, all right, well, I'm
here. Can we just at least do the
checkup? Oh, yeah.
(14:49):
You have a nodule. OK.
And then we had to do a biopsy and it's stage 2 prostate
cancer. OK, you guys are giving me all
this grief, right? So that having that bio hacks is
a secondary check in on everything that you're doing
medical wise. Now, again, the huge benefit of
that was a year in of superhumans.
So that surgery went extremely well, right.
(15:10):
So I had it removed a a month later after the diagnosis.
I was up and around that very next weekend and moving around
and you know, some of the other guys at the Country Club who
aren't in as good, you know, shape that I was even a year.
I've even come down and waiting and more more fit over the over
the next year here with superhumans.
But those guys struggled dearly and they're like, Oh man, maybe
(15:31):
I had a wrong doctor. I'm like, you know, some of this
is just one winner's win is the is the attitude, right?
And 2nd is just, you know, to bea part that that much healthier.
And had that not been the case, I don't know how that those
things would have fared for me, right?
Oh, you can. It's very, very confident in
saying that your ability to recover from an operation like
(15:53):
that is going to be heavily dictated by your level of
fitness. Isn't.
It we, we spoke about that on a previous podcast where you know,
the, I think it's like 50% now you're 50% likely to get cancer
in your, in your life. And so there's a lot of things
that are really out of our control.
But what you can control is to be in the best position possible
to, to fight it and recover fromit.
If you do get it. And if you know, if there's a
(16:15):
50% chance, you know, everyone should be trying to get as fit
and healthy as possible to put themselves in that situation.
But Sean, thank you so much for jumping on the show and
congratulations on the Hall of Fame this year.
And I look forward to seeing you.
Forward to handing you the jersey.
This was super good. I really appreciate you guys.
Amazing. Thank you.

(16:37):
star review so that we can help more people.
I'm John Matson, reminding you to always go get what's yours.
First three months of going intothe corporate world, I gained 30
lbs right out of the gate. 220 lbs was my heaviest.
Then I've realized I got to do something.
You're 50% likely to get cancer in your life.
There's a lot of things that arereally out of our control, but
you can't control is to be in the best position possible to
fight it and recover from it if you do get it.
We had to do a biopsy and in stage 2 prostate cancer, that
was a year in a superhuman. So that surgery went extremely

Yeah? So we are joined by Mr. Sean
Walsh. Welcome to the Superhuman show.
(00:46):
So for the listeners, just tell us about yourself in terms of
what do you do for work? What's your fitness journey
been? What was the kind of triggering

And and then, yeah, I'm sure I have some questions once we get

Winners win. Yeah.
So how so? Prior to Superhuman, when, when
you were say 220 and you know itwas two years until you signed
up with Superhuman, were you working with a personal trainer
or have you experienced anythinglike online coaching before?
Like, so this was your first experience of it and how how was
(06:53):
it getting lumped with a with a Welshman on the other side of
the world? Well, a couple, no, I hadn't
done anything of trying to, you know, get assistance.
I mean, there's so many things out there, right?
You guys talk about it all the time.
John talks about it all the timeof everything's out there for
free, right? And I figured I'd, you know,
just follow it and anything thatpops up, but it just wasn't get
(07:14):
me where I needed to be, you know, from from that
perspective. And then I saw John's ad of man,
he is talking to me with the executive.
And if you make this much money,because I mean, you know, I was
making the money, it's hey, he must be talking to me.
And then just the whole concept because you know, at this stage
(07:35):
of my life, right, I've, I've done the things, I've got the,
you know, the portfolios all setand the kids are all older now
and right to look forward and tostrive for something.
Now it's like I've done, I've travelled the world, I've done
everything. But then that, you know, the
superhuman was such a just A tagalone to say you're a superhuman
(07:55):
was, was what really, you know, drew me in with.
And again, the, the messaging and the marketing that John does
of what I'm struggling with. That was just, you know, hit hit
home on, you know, on so many different levels of me wanting
to do something like that and tobe, you know, shredded as as he
always says, right? And.
What's the what's the net weightloss from when you started to
(08:18):
now? As in when you started with
Superhuman to now. 55 lbs. Down 55 lbs and now what's the
goal because you're down 55 lbs Hall of Famer now coming up in
October. And then what's the, what's the
goal from here moving forward? Yeah, now I want to get into the
end of the muscle. Muscle building.
Muscle building pieces, yeah. The fun first.
(08:39):
And I know you guys are our fan favourites, but Grant's one of
my my models of to see Grant andwhat he had done.
Despite his personality, he's got a great physical
transformation I don't like. To say I wouldn't mind looking.
Like Grant either. Just watching what he
transitioned through in the samething with his kids, you know,
poking his belly and doing the different things and, and he's
(09:03):
just a monster and. That's awesome.
So was there anything unexpectedthat you weren't expecting from
Superhuman, whether it's workingwith Ryan or kind of anything
that you've gotten out of the program which you really didn't
think that it was going to be available or just kind of like a
by product of being in the program outside of just the
physical transformation that you've?
(09:24):
Got yeah without questions the network right to be a part of
when you think online it's so-called how well is net
network going to work? It's just online, but doing
these quarterly, these events and and doing enough where we
get the in on person and and I've sat with run numerous
times, even though you guys are on the other side of the pond to
have that connection to have like people wanting to do it and
(09:47):
it's not not, you know, always working towards the same.
How do you do this? How do you do that?
That network is incredible. The mental performance that John
does is amazing, right? And that's before you even get
to the to any kind of the fitness pieces of it.
Then we get into the fitness pieces of it and the, you know,
(10:08):
working with Ryan on an every week basis with the the check
in. So, you know, if I want to jump
on a Zoom, he just throws me theschedule and we have it booked
within a day and be able to sit there and talk through anything
versus, you know, trading, trading text.
But it's fully accessible. You guys respond so quickly.
I was, I was about to ask. I was like, does he get back to
you fast enough? Absolutely.
(10:30):
Speed is king. And we're different time zones,
right? And even that it's, it's
incredible of, of just, if I need anything, it's you guys
are, you know, in Ryan's, Ryan'sthere.
And I hear the same thing from all the other superhumans when
we come to these different events of just how quick you
guys are, which is key. I mean, I'm a big customer
service guy, 100%. If, if you're going to spend the
(10:52):
money, you have an expectation and you guys meet that
expectation and, and it's so hard to come by.
So it's so quick to take your money.
Our number one value in the coaching department is speed is
king. And so it's, it's that
efficiency, especially with, with guys like yourself, where
this stuff has to be integrated into your lifestyle because you
have all of these other things that you need to prioritize as
(11:13):
well versus if you're waiting two days for a response or you
can't get a hold of someone. So we, we do pride ourselves on
that and you know, being able toprovide that for you guys.
Some people claim premium product, but it's like they
don't deliver premium product, but it's like, yeah, we claim it
and we deliver. It, there's a there's a brand of
what was it? Is it like fence protector or
(11:35):
something in the UK called run seal?
And that slogan is just, it doeswhat it says on the 10.
And so I always like to think it's like we just, we do what we
say we're going to do and which which becomes less and less
these days, Like it's, you know,people talk a big game, but then
the actual outcome is, is much less very common.
But I like to say we kind of deliver on what we, what we,
what we say, we're going to the.Run seal of.
Fitness the run seal of fitness.Now we give us the new.
(11:57):
The new solution. So the, you know, the last
question I would have to, to wrap this up is if you, if you
were speaking to someone that was in a similar position.
So maybe they've, they've just kind of got to that point in
their career where, you know, very, very successful.
They've put on the pounds, you know, because they've had to
prioritize that for, for, for a decade or two and they're on the
fence of kind of, you know, I need to make a change.
(12:20):
I don't know if I'm ready for it.
I don't know if I'm going to have time.
What would your response be for someone like that?
And I get that question a lot. And it's what I find amazing is
just how little folks want to invest in themselves, right.
So when you have that price tag,which I feel is important to
weed out all the goofiness, thatwas the other thing exciting
(12:41):
thing about John is, I mean, people who are serious are the
only ones going to be in this. You're not going to get somebody
who's, you know, fly by night kind of.
Yeah, it sounds kind of cool. But.
And that's where I struggled with, you know, I'm from
Buffalo, NY, and a lot of the different folks that I interact
with because Buffalo is, you know, nine months of winter
that's in eating chicken wings and drinking beer and.
In the Country Club, yeah, get rid of that Country Club when
(13:04):
you. When you.
Pitch that, save some money, that is that.
Of you know what, what this means and what you get for the
for the money, that money is always such a a tipping point.
But I said after that, you got the network, you got the mental
performance, you know, in a little bit.
One of the other things that I found of huge value is the bio
hacks, which is the medical piece of right.
(13:25):
So when I got evaluated, jumpinginto the elite program right on
on day one, right and going through that piece, I did all
the blood work, which that was another amazing thing of just
looking at that. Never expected that from the
program is is a is a huge extra benefit.
But my PSA was high. So working with Rosie over at
Biohack, she goes, we, we can't do anything out of the ordinary
(13:48):
for you other than straight, straight supplements unless you
go get your, your prostate checked because that's a, that's
a high PSA, anything over, over 4.
So I'm looking, I went to my GP and I'm like, yeah, I'm doing
all these things. And I, of course, I took all the
supplement pieces to my GP and she's rolling her eyes and
things of looking at what she, yeah, there's nothing in there
(14:08):
that'll hurt you. But I don't know that all this
is necessary. I'm like, I just want to follow
the program, right? But I said I do.
One of the things that popped ismy PSA.
She goes, Nah, that number is, you know, it fluctuates over
what you eat on any given day. It's unnecessary.
You don't need to check them. So then I had my next check up
with with bio hacks and she's like, yeah, we still can't do
anything for you unless you go get an MRI.
(14:29):
Get an MRI and get the prostate check.
I'm like, I get it. So I went back and had to
struggle again with my GP. So I said, listen, I'm asking
for my dad had prostate cancer. I'm over 50.
She goes, yeah, you're right. It's time.
Same thing. I went into the urologist.
He's giving me grief. I don't know what you need to be
doing all this. I'm like, all right, well, I'm
here. Can we just at least do the
checkup? Oh, yeah.
(14:49):
You have a nodule. OK.
And then we had to do a biopsy and it's stage 2 prostate
cancer. OK, you guys are giving me all
this grief, right? So that having that bio hacks is
a secondary check in on everything that you're doing
medical wise. Now, again, the huge benefit of
that was a year in of superhumans.
So that surgery went extremely well, right.
(15:10):
So I had it removed a a month later after the diagnosis.
I was up and around that very next weekend and moving around
and you know, some of the other guys at the Country Club who
aren't in as good, you know, shape that I was even a year.
I've even come down and waiting and more more fit over the over
the next year here with superhumans.
But those guys struggled dearly and they're like, Oh man, maybe
(15:31):
I had a wrong doctor. I'm like, you know, some of this
is just one winner's win is the is the attitude, right?
And 2nd is just, you know, to bea part that that much healthier.
And had that not been the case, I don't know how that those
things would have fared for me, right?
Oh, you can. It's very, very confident in
saying that your ability to recover from an operation like
(15:53):
that is going to be heavily dictated by your level of
fitness. Isn't.
It we, we spoke about that on a previous podcast where you know,
the, I think it's like 50% now you're 50% likely to get cancer
in your, in your life. And so there's a lot of things
that are really out of our control.
But what you can control is to be in the best position possible
to, to fight it and recover fromit.
If you do get it. And if you know, if there's a
(16:15):
50% chance, you know, everyone should be trying to get as fit
and healthy as possible to put themselves in that situation.
But Sean, thank you so much for jumping on the show and
congratulations on the Hall of Fame this year.
