When John Godina was a shot putter, he was THE man in the sport. His technique was smooth as silk and he simply did not lose. After setting the still standing NCAA record, winning four world titles and two Olympic medals, Godina finally hung up his shoes in 2008, but that was not his end in the sport. He since founded Altis, which he now runs as CEO. Altis has grown as a training center with more than 100 elite track and field athletes and a coaching center featuring a growing education program. On this episode of the podcast he joins us to discuss some of the lessons he has learned from his career of chasing excellence in every pursuit. For more on this topic, check out our complete show notes at: http://www.hmmrmedia.com/2016/04/hmmr-podcast-episode-46-chasing-excellence-with-john-godina/

With immigration being a hot topic in this US presidential campaign season, we thought we would take a look at foreign athletes and how they should fit into the American collegiate system.

In the beginning, there was Glenn McAtee. McAtee's name is referenced on nearly every episode on the podcast for a good reason: he has been the major influence in Nick's career and the force that connected Nick and Martin. The former Clemson and Cal State Northridge coach put together a great system to turn overlooked recruits into all-Americans. We ask him about how he set up that program, how he became on of the first coaches in the west to study Bondarchuk's methods, and what he has learned working back at the youth level in recent years. For more on this topic, check out our complete show notes at: http://www.hmmrmedia.com/2016/03/hmmr-podcast-episode-43-with-glenn-mcatee/
