We're adding a little something into the podcast rotation - 'What You Need To Know' topics. Today's episode is all about caffeine. How much caffeine is too much? How does caffeine really metabolize in the body? How does caffeine affect our physiology, mental state, training and recovery? We tell you what popular drinks have insane amounts of caffeine. Caffeine does much more in the body then you'd expect. We get down and nerdy on this one. Let's get into it.

It's time to simplify your life. Many of us tend to overcomplicate life - in our relationships, training, nutrition, jobs or personal growth. We discuss how consistent small steps can lead you a positive direction. Are the habits you're forming positive or negative to your life? Are you planting the seeds now so you can pick the fruit of your efforts? Why you should be taking ownership of your thoughts, not for others but for yourself. Avoiding emotional decision making and focus on logic, practice and patience. Are you looking at the bark, the tree or the entire rain forest?

It's Tuesday, are you surprised to see us? Today we discuss how we're seeing a new trend of training on social media, and we're extremely pleased to see the transition into intensity over volume training. Why effort based training is the way you SHOULD be training. What it truly feels like to reach failure, mentally and physically. By now you should know why you shouldn't leave reps in reserve, right? Training to failure is an art, we suggest you listen closely to learn how to get there.

Welcome to a new series we're starting! Every week we're going to have one of the #TEAMMIHALY Coaches on the podcast to discuss a specific topic.

We dive into the importance of a strong mental capacity, how it can be achieved and what it will do for your fitness and life. Why you shouldn't be DMing potential coaches. How Savannah educates her clients for long-term success. And so much more.
