Michelle and Tim here! On this episode Tim flies solo AGAIN with the man, the legend, the LARGEST of Z’s, Dr. Zac Cupples. Tim and Zac discuss how improving movement options is legit, but at what cost? We know that this breathing stuff works, but are there drawbacks to this approach? Can we really make the changes “stick?”

Tim and Zac also sift through, How Zac structures his own training, What's better, time management or energy management?, What is Zac’s biggest failure?, The dichotomy of the type A personality, Movement behaviors: How do we get them to "stick", The dark side of internal cueing, AND the best way to communicate effectively to clients.

Michelle and Tim are joined by none other than runner-turned-powerlifter, ACL-rehab-encylopedia, youth-injury-management-expert, and PT with the most trained solei on the east coast, the one, the only, DR. STEPH ALLEN!

They pow-wow about her own training practices, Tim’s inability to understand how “show notes” work, the variable response to heavy barbell training of different genders and populations, objective strength testing as return-to-sport criteria, and frustration with the academic institution at large.

If you’re looking to level up (pun-intended) as a coach or clinician, this is the episode for you!

Michelle and Tim are joined by expert human, decent predator, and mediocre pack mule, Todd Bumgardner to chat about getting winded walking up the hills of Central Pennsylvania, disappearing into the Alaskan bush for weeks at a time, and designing training programs for hunters and tactical athletes. Along the way, they foray into topics like;

Pack your water purification tablets and compass, because this is one intellectual journey you WON’T want to miss.

We’re lucky enough to be joined by soccer-injury-management authority and rear-foot-elevated-split squat aficionado Dr. Nicole Surdyka! We talk about her own training amongst her move into professional soccer, the optimization of risk/reward in both programming and exercise selection for athletes, and count things down with all the ways we see people mess up “return to sport” scenarios. 

This one’s a doozy. Tell work you’ll be in late, brew a nice cup of tea, slap your headphones on, learn, and enjoy!

Michelle and Tim get schooled by Eric Schmitt, Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for THE Memphis Grizzlies, on all things strength endurance, movement screens, energy system development, continued learning, and MORE.

They’ve done it again!!! Strength and rehab dream team Michelle and Tim bring on Dr. Seth Oberst; THE authority on all things self-regulation, variability, and defense responses. They chat about managing both OVER and UNDER-stressed athletes, the magic of attunement, and how Seth structures his own training. If you’re a human who works with other humans that either train OR are in pain (or both), this show is for YOU. Give it a listen, and enjoy!
