Philosophical Weightlifting Podcast

"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.

Dani Myers Glynn is a powerlifter in the USAPL. She's competed across two different weight classes, soon to be three, qualifying and placing in the top 10 for the last three years in both the 100 + and 100 kg categories. By day, she is an HR specialist, and by night, she is one of the strongest people in the country.

Listen in as we discuss the Arnold, Dani's last two 5th-place showings at Raw Nationals (100+ kg, 100 kg), and what we changed to improve her programming. 

Enjoy.

This was the most meaningful podcast that I've recorded to date, as I was joined by the legend Dr. David Burns.  

David is a psychiatrist and author known for his contributions to cognitive behavioral therapy. His book "Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy" explores the philosophical underpinnings of how our thoughts influence our emotions and behaviors. As a professor emeritus at Stanford University, Burns continues to examine the intersection of psychology and philosophy, particularly in how individuals can rationally approach and overcome psychological challenges. His books have transformed millions of lives, while his "Feeling Good Podcast" reaches countless listeners worldwide.

In this episode, we discuss the underpinnings of TEAM-CBT, how David is incorporating this model into an app (Feeling Great), and we role play a therapy session.

Enjoy.
