  • A Conversation Not About Fitness - Michael Blevins - #160

    Michael Blevins is a coach, podcaster and part of the team who trained some of Hollywood's biggest stars for screen.

    Expect to learn why exercising is where we connect most closely with what it means to be human, how the modern obsession with training can be damaging mentally and physically.

    We talk about metaphysics, psychedelics, finding meaning & purpose in life... and not really at all about fitness.

  • Understanding Fitness As A Competitor - Steven Fawcett - #155

    Steven Fawcett is a 3 Times CrossFit Games Athlete and Head Coach of JST Compete.

    How to become fit and how to use that fitness in a competitive environment are two very different challenges. Many athletes will spend years training and competing to see their numbers stay the same, or maybe even go backwards.

    So what's the solution? As a coach and athlete who has seen phenomenal success over the last few years, I figured Ste would be a good guy to ask. Expect to learn how to periodise your training, how often you should be competing every year, why a full break can be one of the best training tools you can use, what Ste's best advice is on competition weekends and much more.
