#9 - StrongFit | Training Yourself To Feel Less Pain And Handle Extreme Discomfort w/ Julien Pineau
Julien is a movement specialist who will teach you a thing or two about extreme discomfort, pain, and intensity. We move past technique and programming today to focus on the end game — creating and applying torque. I also had a blast nerding out with him on the concept of pushing your brain as hard as you push your body.
In this episode, some things we talk about:
- Why torque changes everything, even if it visually LOOKS like you’re performing a movement correctly
- Difference between mobility and flexibility: Why passive stretching hasn’t fixed your hips yet
- Building a mental palace to push, organize, and strengthen your mind
Show Notes:
- “I found myself when I started MMA, that’s when things really clicked for me.” (2:20)
- “I could more or less wonder my intellect in easy life. It’s that moment when you have to look in the mirror. And I realized and decided that I needed to build something.” (3:21)
- “In the end, them saying no was the best thing that could have happened to me. I struggled really hard for a few years. Sold my car, lost 20lb because I had to ride up and down to my gym on a bicycle.”
- “Steroids and CrossFit, honestly is the wrong conversation. What we want to look at are pain killers and anti-inflammatories. That’s the dirty secret of CrossFit.” (4:45)
- “The body moves well. We just messed it up along the way. We learn wrong patterns along the way that creates imbalances and deficiencies that ends up causing trauma. The key is if I can just remove what you’re doing wrong, chances are the body will do right on its own.” (9:40)
- “Skill, Eccentric, Weight-bearing. The lower the SEW, the higher I’m going to push the intensity. The skill is very limited on a sled push. I know that there’s not much that’s going to stop you from taking two more steps. You won’t pay the price for it in the sense of, your knees won’t ache the next day. Your back won’t be destroyed.” (11:30)
- “What is the difference between mobility and flexibility really? (14:00)
- “Creating torque is everything (16:10)
