Eat This for Performance

SSM Episode #14

Rob Galatiuk is the owner of Coast 2 Coast Player Development, a place for hockey players to take their game to the college level. On today's episode he breaks down the important first steps you need to take if you are thinking of playing college in the US.  In the second half of the episode we discuss at what age it would be good to start actively looking for opportunities in college sport.

Rob grew up playing hockey in Manitoba/Saskatchewan, Canada. He played his junior hockey in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League for the Melfort Mustangs, where his team made it to finals in the Royal Bank Cup, but came up short.  During his junior career Rob was ranked one of the top goaltenders in Junior A hockey across Canada. Rob earned a full scholarship to Lake Superior State University. He played pro hockey in the Central Hockey League for Oklahoma City, San Antonio, Corpus Christi and Odessa. Rob had a couple of short stints in the American Hockey League for San Antonio and Houston.

SSM Episode #11

In this episode I interview our scientist-turned-educator and 100% hockey mom, Christine Bell. I loved Christine's interview because we brought up 2 important conversations: - The need to be split into 2 or 3 places, and one way she overcame this problem - What coaches could be focussed on to help make the program even better for our young athletes A bit about Christine... Christine received her PhD in neuroscience, with a focus on the neural basis of ingestive behavior – how brain cells relay information about sensing hunger or fullness and responding to it to make the right decision: eat or don’t eat. After her PhD and some post-doc work, she had both of her children, Nikko, now 10, and Anja, 7, both of whom play hockey. Christine left science to spend more time with her kids and pursued and other passion in education, where she has been ever since. She is now currently a professor of biology, and weaves her knowledge of biomechanics, cellular biochemistry and physiology, and micro nutrition into how she prepares her kids for sport as well as school. This episode was hosted by Pearle Nerenberg, the founder of Eat This for Performance - home of the Confident Athlete. Go grab our free performance foods guide: www.et4p.com/start-here

SSM Episode #10

We are inviting you back into the world of mind-body connection with our expert, Sarah Rose. Sarah has been instrumental in aligning the SSM podcast with our deepest intention: to support the Super Sports Mom and family to evolve through each layer of peaking for performance. We are always evolving, and here at SSM podcast place we evolve WITH you. Join our next evolution as we take on Rejuvenation. In her interview, Sarah introduced us to the 2 most important questions to ask ourselves to avoid burn out or return from burn out. Sarah took us deep into the mind and gave us a framework we can use today. And if you love learning from Sarah she is creating some more evolutions for you over on her website (www.evolvewithsarah.com - new website coming soon!).

SSM Episode #9

Coaching your child is probably one of the aspirations we all had as new parents of newborns. I mean common, it makes sense! We have so much wisdom and skills to teach them. However, an amazing interview with Super Sports Mom, Joanne Kay, teaches us why our personal coaching aspirations may need to be adjusted. Even with the very best of intentions we may sometimes do more harm than good! Joanne shares her unique perspective as a former elite ironman athlete and a current expert in sports policy. Her strategies for keeping her active family sorted out are a great inspiration to anyone who is struggling to stay organized. Enjoy this interview with one Super Sports Mom! 

SSM Episode #8

Marisa Halpern Malts married Vince Malts and the rest is hockey history. Marisa is the owner of Bloodline Hockey (http://bloodlinehockey.com), a mindset coaching place. The couple duo has a weekly Facebook show called "parent trap" that challenges us to think differently about your hockey mindset. If you have not started to work on your mindset game you will be interested in meeting Marisa. Mindset in sport is a game changer for many young athletes (and the families they are supported by).

SSM Episode #7

Without rest we cannot achieve a peak performance. But how do we rest when we are time crunched and in-season athletes? I give you a tour of rejuvenation strategies for peaking for performance. You can do these strategies anytime OR you can super-dose on these strategies during your winter holidays (as we are recommending!). Getting into a rejuvenation program mid-season will make the athlete really peak come the end of the season (and beyond)!

SSM Episode #6

When the vision of Super Sports Moms was born it was not yet known that this podcast was to be a place for moms to peak for performance alongside their athletic children - but that is exactly what we have built. In the following release you will discover the Superpacks that feature an audio guide to peak performance. Today we introduce one of your guides, Sarah Rose. Sarah is an important person to get to know. She is here to give you and everyone in the family a path to a greater performance through the mind-body connection. Her poetic words and calming voice will transport you to that other world inside of you where great performances live. In this interview she shares her unconventional path and inspires us to take the first scary steps on our unconventional path... you never know where they may lead you!

SSM Episode #5

We know what we are, but we know not what we may be. -Shakespeare The truth bomb of all time is this quote - do you know what you may become tomorrow... the answer is of course, no. Your performance tomorrow is unknown but it is because we only truly know what we are today. So what if we consciously worked today to be great tomorrow? First, we need to understand where we are at today. In this episode Pearle Nerenberg takes you through the 7 layers of what we can be doing today to peak tomorrow. Here at SSM podcast headquarters we call tomorrow our performance. When we peak for performance we can do more in sport, in work, and in life. Listen as Pearle takes you through each of the steps to peak for performance and sets up the future of the Super Sports Moms podcast adventures where we will guide you through peak performance audio Super Packs.
