Derek Miles, DPT, is a no silly BS rehab specialist who runs his own physical therapy clinic (Miles Rehab and Performance) in Cincinnati, Ohio, and works on the Pain and Rehab team for Barbell Medicine.

In this episode, we discuss many pain and rehab-related topics, how to become more disagreeable when communicating science, training for power after an injury, and why physical activity and health matter more than most performance goals.

Austin Baraki should be a household name. Aside from being a kickass Internal Medicine Physician, he's a member of the Barbell Medicine team where he puts out some of the highest quality information related to health, nutrition, physical activity, and rehab. 

In this episode of the podcast, Austin and I discuss the concept of health (i.e., what is good health), the complexity of health behaviors, how to support those around you, and why the health optimization movement is bull****.

I welcome Olivia Reeves back on the podcast! She was previously on episodes 219 & 236, where we discussed her background in the sport, her thoughts on making it to the Olympics, and what it would take to reach the podium.

In this episode, we relive her Olympic victory, where she took gold in the 71 kg class at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. But that wasn't it for Olivia, she went on to win gold at 2024 Worlds, becoming the first American to achieve this feat since 1958.

2024 was one heck of a year for weightlifting. Olivia Reeves won Olympic gold, Karlos Nasar stole our hearts (thanks, Weightlifting House), China won 5 Olympic golds, and the sport doesn't seem to be slowing down.

In this episode of the podcast, I was joined by the one and only Seb Ostrowicz, founder of Weightlifting House. Seb and I discuss the past year of weightlifting and anticipate many of the changes within the sport and Weightlifting House in 2025. This spans who we would buy/sell/or hold for 2025, how Weightlifting House will continue to change the landscape of the sport, and so much more.

"Good coaching is thinking in patterns and not pieces." This is a quote that has stuck with me since I heard it on the On Coaching podcast. Long-term planning is a process of managing the patterns in training, attempting to produce the best competition result when it's needed. CoachLogik has really pushed a long-term planner that was part of the impetus for this podcast.

Listen in as we discuss my recent publication "Elite Coaching Personality Analysis in Competitive Weightlifting", long-term planning, and why Max's biceps are so dang big. 

Enjoy.

Max and I were definitely in a mood when we recorded this episode of the podcast. When we started spitballing topics before the show, we couldn't come up with much. Unsurprisingly, this turned out to be one of the best episodes yet.  

Listen in as we discuss Coaches College, 3 sets of 10, principles of programming, the biggest mistakes we've made, and so much more. 

Enjoy.
