    Episode 719
    Hey Sam. I really enjoyed this episode. I have seen a lot of claims on the internet lately demonizing coffee on an empty stomach. Your information helped debunk the theory and eliminate unnecessary concern. Thank you for the value packed information you put out regularly!
  • meganmiles987
    Summarizes A Variety of Research
    I research stuff like this all the time and somehow Sam Miller is able to reference even newer, higher quality data than I can find. It’s truly a gift of his. I’m always learning something and it’s framed in a way I can easily pass on to others.
  • Hart73
    Volume up please
    I have been subscribed for over a year and have not listened to more that 3 episodes cause anytime I try I find my self turning the volume up and still can’t hear what’s being said. Please give me the option of turning the volume down if it’s too loud rather than turning it up and still can’t hear. And no it’s not my hearing cause between my bdoump and other podcast I can hear just fine. I don’t leave reviews much but I truelly love hearing from you cause I have heard you in other podcast and wanted to hear more of you message. I will come back and change my review I’m just hoping I get your attention enough to up your volume. Great guy btw too bad I can only hear you in other peoples podcast.
  • Yourboy23
    MUST LISTEN!
    Sam and his team provide a research based, information dense podcast for nutrition and overall health that will make you want to listen to an episode twice, just to soak it all in. I have been listening frequently for about a year and go back into his archive of episodes for more good topics. High five Sam, thanks for for what you.
  • KrystenaM
    Extremely Credible
    If I need any information regarding anything in the healthy industry, Sam Miller Science is my go to. He is the most credible source I’ve come across who does not fluff information or make it difficult to digest.
  • Tkaralfa
    Very informative
    Just found this podcast and I love it. Very informative clear information.
  • Deadlift Devon
    One of my favorite podcasts
    Sam is the coaches coach 🔥
  • BLewis73
    Good Solid Information
    I’m so glad I started listening to this podcast. It provides solid information and tips that I can put into practice as a health, nutrition and fitness coach. I can’t wait to see how my business grows with what I’m learning!
  • Ems218
    Amazing health resource for coaches and individuals alike!
    This podcast is invaluable! It’s an awesome resource for health, nutrition, and fitness coaches as well as any individuals who want to dig a bit deeper on their own health journey. Each episode is jam packed with valuable info but they are reasonably short whereas other podcasts covering similar info are hours long. I make time to listen at least weekly. As a coach in the space for 10 years I can say I’ve paid a lot of money for classes and courses over the years and often learn more in Sams podcast! And for anyone who listens and loves it, his FNMS course takes it to the next level. Pretty awesome to have a FREE resource with such valuable information.
  • Rob253545
    Extremely Helpful in Weight loss journey
    I've been on a weight loss and health transformation journey since April. I started at 270 pounds and am down to 215. I've been working with a registered dietician who took one of Sam's courses. Listening to the podcasts has really helped reinforce the why behind everything I've been doing with my dietician. It's very motivating seeing results but it's also motivating to know why we are making certain changes and the science behind it whether it be adding in a certain supplement to help with my blood sugar or changing the cardio in a certain way. It hasn't just been simply starting macros and cutting them as we go there have been many other toggles along the way and Sam's information on the podcast has been extremely motivating and helpful to my adherence to hear the science and the why behind every change my dietician has made along the way.
  • Kasey Vitto
    Free Knowledge!
    These podcast episodes are a nice free resource! These various topics are so specific and well researched. His knowledge and continuous research helps me further educate and advocate to my clients!
  • Jonathantoews.
    So much knowledge
    The absolute best podcast for diving deeper into things health and fitness beyond just the surface level macros and training. I’ve learned so much just through listening to the podcast and I appreciate all of the free content! It’s helped SO much!
  • Garrett aka GQ
    Long Overdue
    I’ve been following Sam since early on in my coaching career. This podcast is truly invaluable for coaches looking to scale their educatuon and begin to help clients at a deeper level. Beyond that I can't recommend his course FNMS to become an in demand coach able to help clients with complex issues.
  • Macdaddyk
    All Time FAV
    Super long, overdue review - definitely my fav podcast! I’ve been listening to this podcast since 2020, when I was at the beginning of my online coaching career. I’ve really enjoyed the episodes because he breaks down the science into very tangible pieces of info to take away for yourself/clients. There’s a lot of information out there in the health space and can be super overwhelming when you are trying to further your education. But this podcast specifically hits on functional health and how to address both basic and more in depth health focuses for my clients. There are a ton of topics on here that are helpful for both a business and educational perspective as well - so it’s nice to occasionally get the marketing/coaching tips as I have continued to keep up with my own functional health education. I’ve been able to make a lot of changes within my 1:1 coaching program and for protocols with clients in regards to bloodwork, supplements, nutrition and my structuring of check ins.
  • Allon Health & Wellness
    Great podcast!
    Sam Miller’s podcast is informative details and sensitive to the needs of all kinds of people. I value the Contant as a personal trainer for the perspective he gives and how it further helps my clients. Podcast topics are always timely, I have found when I have a question about something. Usually that topic comes up next in my feed. I highly recommend this podcast.
  • Silian Rail
    Reviews are from shills
    Weak podcast with next to zero content. Most are 30min of ego stroking. Total waste of time.
  • texas-girl-29-
    My favorite!
    Wish this guy was taking new clients because he’s a breath of fresh air for everyone, but especially the functional medicine/overall health approach that comes super helpful to females.
  • @lilbigmeeks
    Amazing content
    Makes me a better coach with all the knowledge and value Sam gives on this podcast! Thank you so much Sam! This industry needs you!
  • hallikmac
    Extreme value
    Sam is clearly an expert in his field and cares deeply about helping others achieve their fitness goals. He provides so much of his knowledge and makes it clearly understandable for the layman (like me).
  • snendbdnzn
    SO much value
    Sam overdelivers every time on these podcasts. His scientific knowledge is exceptional and his delivery is easy to digest. Helps me immensely in coaching my own clients
  • Hannah NNguyen
    Unmatched!
    I listened to 2 episodes before I was immediately convinced to join Sam’s FNMS program. These podcasts are jam packed with so much education and they only left me wanting to learn more! Please never stop making these!
  • BigRigg06
    Lots of excellent information
    Sam truly does an amazing job breaking things down in an easy to understand fashion. He covers topics that coaches see on a consistent basis and really arms you with information that can take your coaching to the next level.
  • Debysousa
    One of my “trusted sources””
    I live podcasts and listen to more than I can count, Sam’s has become one of my “trusted sources”. As a coach, anytime I’m learning about a topic, I come here to see what Sam has to say about. Science based and easy to understand.
  • Mala-Mar
    Phenomenal!
    Sam Miller’s podcast is one of my favorites. He is a wealth of knowledge and is truly gifted at making complicated scientific topics easy to understand. As a RD, CPT with a MS in nutrition, I’m ALWAYS learning something new from Sam. If you want to up-level your knowledge about nutrition, fitness, hormones, metabolism, etc. The SMS podcast is one of the very best!
  • Tacoballer
    Loads of solid info
    I’ve been listening to Sam Miller Science for awhile. As a coach I’m always trying to increase my knowledge and expand my toolbox for my clients. Sam gives helpful, true and practical advice for helping me do this. All of his resources and dedication to higher education is an invaluable tool for coaches.
  • Randyroo906
    Career success
    Listening to this podcast has allowed me to be a top tier coach. I’ve attended many of Sam’s free seminars & engulf myself in all his knowledge he shares. Such great education for all!
  • charlottepilates_macros
    Expanding my mind!
    I am really enjoying your podcast! I’ve never been one to listen to them usually music playing in my ears but I have more then enjoyed your content and expansive knowledge. Pilates instructor and studio owner for 17 years and newly certified macro coach.

    Love this podcast
    I’m a new macro coach and Pilates instructor of 17 years. I have learned SO much from this podcast and appreciate all of the content. Thank you so much!
  • KDUBS00
    Science backed research
    I love Sam Miller’s podcast because he brings science based facts and delivers them in a relevant way. I’m always learning something new. I love geeking out to this podcast.
  • Shannonracheltaylor
    Favorite place to geek out!
    Love Sam’s factual, to the point presentation of the info and real life application. I love the science and find this info so helpful in both my own health journey and that of my clients.
  • theeramey
    Do not miss this information
    Sam has been so influential in my beginning knowledge of becoming a coach. When I first set out on this journey, I thought I knew a great amount of things when it came to health and fitness... boy was I wrong. After finding Sam about 18 months ago, I have listened and signed up for basically everything they have to offer because the knowledge he gives is too important to pass up on. I can’t thank him enough for just improving my abilities everyday.
  • gethealthy_befit
    great information
    Sam always has current content wonderfully explained to make it very easy to understand and digest. His content is well studied and relevant to the coaching arena, or for those who are interested in getting and staying healthy and fit. No bull, keeping it real.
  • Alex Johannsson
    Favorite Educational Podcast
    This podcast is absolutely great. I try and listen to an episode each morning either on my walk or in the background while I do my work. Sam always has interesting topics he talks about on the podcast and always has great information to back up his knowledge - and teaches it in a simple way to understand. There’s a lot of information being thrown out in today’s world and it is nice to have a consistent resource to come back to and learn from.
  • state.fit
    INCREDIBLY INFORMATIVE!
    This is the first podcast I’ve come across that takes complex scientific topics and condenses them into a way that’s applicable for coaches. If something comes up in a client case, I know I can reference one of Sam’s podcasts for guidance. Thank you Sam!
  • hannah burness
    MY FAVORITE PODCAST!
    Sam breaks down the most relevant topics in a way that’s easy to digest and fun to listen to. If you’re a health and fitness coach & you don’t follow this podcast, YOU ARE MISSING OUT!
  • Liz__M
    Absolute must listen!
    If you only had time for one podcast - this should be it. Sam Miller provides accurate and impactful information on a topics that are critical to health. He breaks them down with easy to understand language, translating complex topics into useful information. My health has improved noticeably by applying his insight.
  • Ash21kj
    Go to podcast
    Sam provides great science based information. It’s my go to podcast! I’ve learned a lot from his shows. Especially for wanting to know more for my personal health. Check it out!
  • coach marisa kay
    Stellar info
    Sam is incredible. He is clearly very knowledgeable, but the real thing that makes his podcast great is how he is able to teach and coach the content in a digestible way. A must listen for all coaches.
  • Squats n' Science
    Mandatory listening for coaches and clients alike
    Sam demystifies complex concepts and teaches physiology with a direct emphasis on application for you or your clients. Coaches should listen to level up their knowledge and have directly applicable info to help any complex client case, but really this podcast is amazing for anyone on a healthy journey, not just coaches. So definitely urge you to make this one of your staple listening podcasts especially if you have those several problem clients that you can’t get results no matter what you try.
  • Justin_Peterson
    Sam is the real deal
    This podcast is great! Anyone interested in health, fitness, nutrition, etc… look no further. I’ve had the opportunity to work 1 on 1 with Sam in the past and have seen first hand the benefits of his knowledge in play. Not only is he extremely intelligent, but he’s an active learner (always on the cutting edge), and a genuinely good human. I’d rate this Podcast 5/5 Stars and rate the man behind it 6/5 Stars!
  • rjk821
    Game changer
    By far the most underrated podcast for anyone interested in health, nutrition, and physiology. Absolute game changer for coaches and any health enthusiast! Do yourself a favor and subscribe to this show ASAP.
  • RMGFit
    Some of the best health info you'll hear
    I have been a fan of Sam for a while now, and have his certification. If you're a coach or just a curious person into health and lifestyle, you need to be listening to Sam.
  • jes🥰
    Talks obnoxiously fast
    I love the information and topics and grateful for the time and energy he puts into the podcast but it’s a little obnoxious how fast he speaks. If he’s trying to provide quality information so people can change their lives, what is talking that fast helping?
  • amarsh0603
    So great
    Love this podcast! I love that most episodes are shorter and more easily digestible, and they can feel less overwhelming that way. He is able to break complex topics down to be easily understood and has a huge variety of topics. Highly recommend!
  • kitkatdy
    Want to be a better coach?
    If you want to be the best possible coach for your clients, this podcast is a no-brainer. Sam never fails to shed light on important topics and breaks the topic down piece by piece, tying in SCIENCE and real life scenarios- and he does so in a way that is easy to understand and immediately apply with my clients. I am so glad I found this podcast. I’m always excited when a new episode is out and can’t wait to listen. Sam’s podcast is my number one go to. With each episode, I leave with a nugget of gold I can take into my coaching practice and use to enhance the lives of my clients. If this podcast isn’t in your rotation, you need it now!
  • Katy Ihlenfeldt
    Easily understandable & applicable!
    I have followed Sam on Instagram for just over a year now, which led me to his podcast! I’m always amazed at how he can take ideas that have been so over-complicated in the fitness world and reminds us that the most important thing is to master the basics before anything else. How paying attention to what our bodies are telling us and actually listening will make all the difference in the world! Episodes are not too long, and he doesn’t use complicated jargon (and if he does he explains everything) which make it easily digestible and applicable to our lives as coaches and athletes!
  • CcourtneyCc
    So good!!
    Each episode goes into great depth on the topic at hand while making it easy to understand. Really speaks to my enneagram 5 personality as I love knowing the why and how behind the mechanisms. This podcast combines all the things I love, am interested in, and want to do with my life!! Seriously the best!!
  • hhhjjjlopm
    Educational A’F

  • AshleyFit
    My go-to podcast!
    I’m a pod cast junky, but Sam’s is top favorite. As soon as a new one drops I am listening. He is actually my favorite workout “jams”. He is so knowledgeable and how he explains things is so educational, but applicable. Thanks for all the amazing content you produce!
  • sspence1!
    Super informative
    Fantastic podcast! Sam is so knowledgeable and breaks down information in a logical way. He knows way more about nutrition than I ever could, but I walk away from each episode with so much practical knowledge that can be applied in my everyday quest for health. Highly recommend!!
