Matt Shaw - Senior Associate AD, Sports Performance at the University of Denver - joins us for the 123rd episode of MTN. On today's episode of the podcast, we talk with Matt about the evolution of hockey at Denver and the ever changing player type that he has noticed. We then really dive into conversation around breathwork. Something Matt has noticed as one of the lowest hanging and biggest return investments that he has found of late. We talk through how a lifelong habit and creating positive change in all aspects of life (not just sport) can lead to very real change in the world of performance.
