Krush Performance

Solutions! We want solutions! In the Krush Performance’s War on Sugar, we have spent the last few years digging deep to clearly define the problems and issues we are facing when it comes to not only sugar consumption but our eating habits as a whole. In this episode, I want to start talking solutions! What can we do to make better choices and what might those choices be?

This week, we are joined by Alan Frost, founder and CEO of Flavanaturals, a company with a very interesting twist on chocolate and the powerful cocoa flavanols that have been shown to have some serious health benefits. We’ll discuss some of the important basics in performance eating. There are tricks to this trade-craft and you can get in on the action right now!!

What can you to do to get better? Better at your job, better at your sport, your music, your hobby? Better at anything? As a parent, teacher or coach, what do you need to know to set the stage so your students, athletes, and children can take a good run at chasing down their dreams?

The top organizations scour the landscape looking for new ideas and strategies for improving performance leaving no stone unturned and you should as well.

Some of the most important research on the development of talent and skill comes out of the Music world.

In this episode of Krush Performance, we are joined live in studio with the founding member’s one of my favorite bands, The Whale and the Wolf.

Ryan Maier (lead vocals), Brandon Yaggey (guitar), Lucas Holt (bassist) join us to talk about their development and their commitment to their music and we discuss what size of community produces the most top performers. Also, we discuss what makes a great performer great (the secret of practice – the right kind of practice!), and in the early 60’s, before they were a world wide sensation, the Beatles did something extraordinary and it may very well be THE reason for their success!!

It has been said that Luciano Pavarotti, one of the greatest opera singers of all time, once proclaimed, “If I don’t practice for a day, I know it. If I don’t practice for 2 days, my wife knows it. If I don’t practice for three days, the world knows it!”

What secrets can we learn from top performers in music and how can it help you get better at whatever it is you love to do? Let’s Find out on this week’s episode of Krush Performance.

In this ever changing world of technology and information, we are experiencing drastic changes in the demands for talent and skills, how we develop them, and where they are now needed. As we continue to expand our understanding of Human Development and Human Performance, we not only have to react to the shifting demands for specific skills and talents, we also now need to adjust how we are developing future talent to meet the new demands. We’ve already begun with new exciting approaches and there are more to come as knowledge and technology continue to push the human performance envelope.

This week on Krush Performance, we talk with Geoff Colvin, Sr. Editor at Large for Fortune Magazine and bestselling author of “Talent is Overrated” and Humans are Underrated,” to discuss the deep questions of:

 What talents and skills you need to develop for this new age?

 And, What does talent and skill development look like as we move forward?

Join us as we look at the future of Human Performance in the weeks episode of Krush Performance! Let us know and if you have any questions, comments, smart remarks, or a topic you would like us to investigate, let us know we may dedicate a segment or even an entire show to your topic.

This week on Krush Performance, Jeff Krushell is joined in studio by a couple of our good friends, Brennan Klak and Matt Iwanyk, as asks the question, “What sport has changed the most in recent years?”

We also talk skill acquisition and talent development. How do you get better at something? It’s all based around Matt’s golf game and the goals he has set for himself over the next three years.

Also, Jeff and Brennan attempt to fix the NCAA. The on-field and on-court product is as good as ever but there are demons haunting the NCAA, such as their antiquated rules. Could it be time to pay the players?

It’s all in this weeks episode of Krush Performance.

The fall season rolls on and the fall is by far my favorite time of year. The cool air, warm sun, turning of the leaves and lots of SPORTS! NFL, NHL, MLB Postseason, MLS, College Football, and the NBA are now underway and it is a full plate of fall sport that we are watching with great interest.

Today, we look at the NBA Krush Style, to nail down which teams we are watching and why, which players we are following and the storylines in the league. There is plenty to learn from professional sport and there are some very intriguing things happening in the Association this year.

Also, everyone will have to deal with change and/or transition at some point in life. Some changes are planned like going to college, marriage, applying for a new job while others are forced or come as a surprise, such as an injury, the passing of family or friends, or getting let go from a job.

Today, we talk with Krush Favorite Jim Fannin, “The Coach of Champions,” to talk about strategies for dealing with change and transition.

Dealing with change can be very difficult and I hope this episode helps out as many people as possible, it was an important conversation for me personally as I have been dealing with some major challenges and transitions myself.

We always have our ear to the ground, constantly looking for things that peak our interest or grab our attention. Last week, I picked up on two really cool events and I wanted to share them with the Krush Community.

First, anytime we have an opportunity to get a peek behind the curtains of a great performer we take it! To get insights as to what makes a great performer tick is always important and once in a while, we get a glimpse into the life of a Top Performer, which is an invaluable opportunity to not only see how the performer operates but how the performance/life balance can challenge even the very best.

This week, we get a very special opportunity as we talk with Shane Fennessey, co-producer of “Making Coco: The Grant Fuhr Story.” Grant Fuhr was the first black superstar in hockey. He transformed the position of goaltender winning 403 regular season games, 5 Stanley Cups, and is in the Hockey Hall of Fame. It’s an incredible career on the ice, a fall from grace, and a return to the spotlight for redemption. We get a look at this incredible story and the making of the film.

Also, on the athlete performance side, some of the greatest minds in sport medicine are gathering in Edmonton, Alberta for the 5th annual David C. Reid / Glen Sather Sports Medicine Clinic Conference to discuss issues of the lower limb. We are joined by Enda King, physiotherapist and Head of Performance Rehabilitation at the Sports Surgery Clinic, Ireland. We talk with Enda about Injury prevention, rehabilitation and making the right return to play decisions.

I hope you enjoy this episode, please share it with your teammates, family and friends.

We know that in order to solve a problem, you need to clearly define the problem. This week, we take a look at how much sugar we are really consuming, where it’s all coming from. We talk with Krush Favorite Dr. Ann de Wees Allen, Chief of Biomedical Research with the Glycemic Research Institute, about our new understanding of how our bodies really work when it comes to the food we eat.

Burnable carbs, targeted nutrition and No, once again, a Calorie is NOT a calorie.
