This week on the podcast, we dive into the different learning styles you have and how to master them. We also dive a bit deeper into the difference between kinesthetic awareness and proprioception and how training them can make you a better athlete (and human).

Today, we have a short episode from Talon about harnessing your inner weirdo, or being unique.

This week on the podcast we talk about the scariest decisions we've ever made. and then we answer some questions:

How to train for grinding it out (physically and mentally)

Our differing views on mental toughness ( or lack thereof)

What to do when someone in your life is complacent

In the final decade of Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius' life he wrote a series of personal philosophies intended for himself; these would later be published as Meditations. Some are quotes, most are prescriptions for self-improvement. Aurelius was a student of stoic philosophy. Stoicism deals with emotional intelligence, mind over matter, being tied to nature, and exercising philosophy through actions over words.

Now, really hear and listen to the passage. Maybe play it a few times. But know your mind is powerful. Discipline, concentration and being present take work. But with all work and conditioning whether physical , or mental, it becomes easier over time.

Now, to a short passage from Marcus Aurelius from the book published as "Meditations"

Today, we have a very special episode!!

We get to talk to a listener of the podcast, Kevin, who has had an amazing journey of weight loss, health improvement, discipline, fitness, and A LOT more!!

Sit back and digest every nugget you can out of this one!

This week, we have Dr. Rob Bell, a Sports Psychology Coach back on the podcast!!

We cover how he crushed a Half IRONMAN with No Training.

Today, we answer questions:

1. Talon, would you consider yourself a Type-A or Type-B personality? And why?
2. For Jerred: What's your secret to discipline? Truly deep down inside you. What's allows you to be so extremely disciplined?
3. Talon -- Elaborate more on "awareness". You often express this as something that is very important, but how can you get better at being aware? Tips, strategies, etc.
4. How does someone break into Olympic lifting without any prior knowledge? I lift but it seems like the Olympic lifts are more complete and I want to incorporate them.
5. You both talk about running marathons without training, bike races, etc. Can you talk more about the importance of a gauntlet or crucible experiences?
6. Is there anything about becoming a BETTERHUMAN that is out of our control? Like, can luck be involved in growth or gains at all in your opinion?
7. You were both military officers; what was your biggest takeaway from your service?
8. Can you be a bad person and still be a capable leader (or BETTERHUMAN)?

More.

Isn't "more" always the answer?

That's what we all think…

More money will make us…happier?

More things will make us…better?

More, more and more.

But is that really the answer??
