This week the boys welcome back to the show previous USA tour guest Mike Bledsoe and good friend Mark England. The topics in this show really dig into some core issues of fitness athletes, their egos and their lives outside the gym.
Rebuilding the Ego, reinventing yourself and not relying on others are some of the main points of discussion as the boys do a deep dive into what they believe holds back most people from being more successful in their training and their careers.

SHOW NOTES:
- Who you're becoming is uncertain and people don't like uncertainty, they also don't want to look bad, everyone wants to look good (14:31)
- I didn't realize there was something in the middle, something where I could train easy, and I could enjoy it, I could train different (21:33)
- Most people, most competitive athletes are putting working hard above working smart (22:09)
- Everyone thinks they're working hard. When was the last someone told you it wasn't working very hard (28:31)
- The events of my life that have had a huge impact, is when I step into something, when I don't fell like I need it (41:14)
- What do I have to give up to in order to step into something bigger (54:14)
- I used to make a lot of decisions based on "we need to make money no", and now its' more like what's best for the brand, for the costumer (01:15:25)
- The current definition of identity is the fact of being who or what a person is, we're not facts (01:26:16)
- The mission is to change the face of fitness (01:27:24)
- Over the course of the past 15 years I've developed a decent practice of observing how my thoughts influence me (1:29:50)
