Mind before Grind.

Power Athlete, Former Grid League Athlete/now Coach, Professor of Evolutionary Neuroscience, Steve Platek [@splatek16] now adds TED Talk speaker to his long list of accolades. Otherwise known as one Professor Booty, Steve was one of the founding hosts of Power Athlete Radio. His passion to battle the bullshit helped spark the original show and is apparent in all of his training and professional endeavors. Steve has always maintained that science provides answers to the complicated and often overlapping matrix of his two loves, evolution and strength training.

In this episode, Steve and Tex bridge the gap between that of comradery found in sports and the possible neurological implications of group suffering. This phenomena has always been a component in team environments but only recently is there science to explain how the suck can improve overall performance. But, at what risk? Responsible coaches know how and when to put an athlete on blast but not enough follow what Power Athlete refers to as the 3P Model.

Unpack the details of what drives us to want to win for the collective gain with Professor Booty himself.

EMPOWER YOUR PERFORMANCE.

Steve's recent TED Talk will be available for your viewing and audio pleasure soon! Stay tuned to get links of his first speaking gig with TED.

On The Long Road

Hold on to your jean shorts because this week we are bringing you a special audio treat. Talk to Me Johnnie - On The Long Road is coming at you in podcast form! By popular demand we've painstakingly gone through a highly technical and elaborate process to convert the video interview with one of our favorite guests.

When the brains of John Welbourn and Raphael Ruiz [@s3raphruiz] collide, several things are sure to happen. Bullshit gets Battled, 3 hours of conversation reveals that Tex's body hair facilitates a form of resisted running, and our listeners will want to punch any coach in the mouth who picks their programming solely based on what the best athlete is doing. Sit back, relax, and enjoy this lengthy journey down the Long Road.

eat like you train.

This week we are bringing you another mind blowing Q&A with our Nutrition Crew, Tyler Minton [@theMeleeWay] and Leah Kay [@LeahKay_AllDay]. Recently we've been polling the masses to send us your questions. After filtering out the hundreds personal inquiries about Tex's hair secrets we were left with a handful of  relevant nutrition inquiries. Hear the Crew educate on how you can start getting your food to do it's damn job...making you jacked, fast, successful, and good looking.

Is it possible to lean out and maintain performance? Is keto the right diet for you? Does carb back loading really work? And what's the deal with Dark Matter? If we can't see it, how do we even know it's there. Ok so, we won't be able to answer that last one but.

Tyler brings us a great no bullshit rant about why your diet may not be working for you. As he so aptly puts it..."You can go 6 weeks without training and you'll be fine, but go 6 weeks without eating and you die".  Shout out the interns who tested that hypothesis.  The bottom line is that if people attacked their diet with the same voracity as training, we'd have a lot fewer questions and this podcast would basically be irrelevant.
