Kyle Morris and John Meyer are strength coaches for the EOD Group Two Strike program. In this episode, I talk with them about their methodology for helping our Navy EOD operators hit their fitness goals, be ready for the rigors of the job, and stay as injury-free as possible.
The Strike program started about four years ago and addresses all aspects of an EOD operator by providing access to, strength coaches, physical therapists, nutritionists, and mental health professionals.
Having access to strength coaches who can develop plans and guide military athletes in movements helps prevent what those long retired from the EOD community suffer from, training-related injuries.--------------- SOCIAL MEDIA:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/echo_oscar_delta/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/EchoOscarDeltaDonate: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=FXKKVEPDZSW7ELinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerron-clark-b7144599/Amazon Affiliate: https://amzn.to/4018uus-----------------PODCAST LINKS:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7syOy5nkVvozfYVhO0GaV9Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLbV3wd_LX6E2DHWKhe-50QAmazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/4f39a29e-3801-443c-9380-0fc7a51d0ab2/echo-oscar-deltaApple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/echo-oscar-delta/id1662351080Google Podcast: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy9iZTk0NGQ3OC9wb2RjYXN0L3JzcwiHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-echo-oscar-delta-106737255/Castbox: https://castbox.fm/channel/id5349816?utm_source=podcaster&utm_medium=dlink&utm_campaign=c_5349816&utm_content=Echo%20Oscar%20Delta-CastBox_FM&country=us-----------------Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):

Chris Schneider served 26 years and retired as a Senior Chief in Navy EOD. During that time he deployed four times doing various missions from Mine Countermeasures (MCM), supporting the Carrier Strike Group (CSG), and attached to Seal Teams as part of Operation Enduring Freedom. After his retirement, Chris found several non-profits that support veterans by paying for comprehensive exams and supporting therapies to help heal an individual from not just physical injuries, but psychological ones as well. During our discussion, he dives into how some of those non-profits helped him personally.-----------------------EPISODE SPONSOR:-----------------------To sponsor an episode e-mail me at [email protected] SOCIAL MEDIA:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/echo_oscar_delta/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/EchoOscarDeltaDonate: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=FXKKVEPDZSW7ELinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerron-clark-b7144599/Amazon Affiliate: https://amzn.to/4018uus-----------------PODCAST LINKS:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7syOy5nkVvozfYVhO0GaV9Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLbV3wd_LX6E2DHWKhe-50QAmazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/4f39a29e-3801-443c-9380-0fc7a51d0ab2/echo-oscar-deltaApple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/echo-oscar-delta/id1662351080Google Podcast: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy9iZTk0NGQ3OC9wb2RjYXN0L3JzcwiHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-echo-oscar-delta-106737255/Castbox: https://castbox.fm/channel/id5349816?utm_source=podcaster&utm_medium=dlink&utm_campaign=c_5349816&utm_content=Echo%20Oscar%20Delta-CastBox_FM&country=us-----------------Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):

I talked with Shannon Walker, the CEO and Founder of Northwest Battle Buddies, about what led her to start a non-profit and what Northwest Battle Buddies does.
The mission of Northwest Battle Buddies is to gift professionally trained service dogs to veterans battling with PTSD in order to help them regain their freedom and independence.
The service dogs they train spend five or more months in training and then are matched with a Veteran handler for five more weeks of training and bonding. It is an amazing organization whose definition of success isn't related to profits but instead is measured by the number of Veterans they can help through the dogs they train.

EODCS(ret) Cliff Sabo had a Navy EOD career that only one dreams of. Deploying to Iraq, Afghanistan, and Bahrain where he disarmed IED's, supported special operations assault teams, led underwater mine countermeasures teams, and more. On shore duty, he was at Det Marianas where he spent his time defusing bombs on base, blowing up mines underwater, and doing range clearance operations on a small island in the Pacific. This episode shows the full range of what a Navy EOD Operators career can be; the reason we all joined.

Matt Wheeler and I sit down and talk about some serious topics surrounding leadership, mental health, and more. Matt doesn't shy away from discussing his exit from the military, a medical retirement after going down a path that any of us could easily find ourselves on.
Due to some leaders who thought about the individual as a person that they genuinely care about and a lot of hard work done by himself, Matt is excelling at life. His mission now is to be a great father, husband, and friend.
Take some time to listen to Matt, hear his story, and learn from the lessons he shares.-----------------------EPISODE SPONSOR:-----------------------Become a sponsor of the [email protected] SOCIAL MEDIA:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/echo_oscar_delta/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/EchoOscarDeltaDonate: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=FXKKVEPDZSW7ELinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerron-clark-b7144599/Amazon Affiliate: https://amzn.to/4018uus-----------------PODCAST LINKS:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7syOy5nkVvozfYVhO0GaV9Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLbV3wd_LX6E2DHWKhe-50QAmazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/4f39a29e-3801-443c-9380-0fc7a51d0ab2/echo-oscar-deltaApple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/echo-oscar-delta/id1662351080Google Podcast: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy9iZTk0NGQ3OC9wb2RjYXN0L3JzcwiHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-echo-oscar-delta-106737255/Castbox: https://castbox.fm/channel/id5349816?utm_source=podcaster&utm_medium=dlink&utm_campaign=c_5349816&utm_content=Echo%20Oscar%20Delta-CastBox_FM&country=us-----------------Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):
