Lose The Weight - Deconstructing Fitness with Dr. Rodrick Stewart
In this conscious talk from the Black Men's Emotional Wellness Symposium, we explore the idea that The High-Value Man is the Fit Man—but not in the way society typically frames it. This conversation deconstructs fitness beyond muscles and attractiveness, centering internal health markers like blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, and stress. We dive into how behavioral diseases develop over decades and discuss actionable steps Black men can take to break the cycle of poor health outcomes. From diet and fiber to the importance of cardio, sleep, and spiritual practices, this session emphasizes body awareness as a key to self-regulation and healing. We also touch on sexual wellness, including the role of erectile dysfunction as a critical signal for lifestyle changes. A true high-value man educates himself about the world around him and within him, striving to see his doctor no more than once a year. This features Dr. Rodrick Stewart.
