September 16, 2021Karon Hawkins, Flobility, & Spine-Conscious Training
In this episode, I sit down with Floblity Coach, Karon Hawkins, to discuss the program’s transformational approach to spine health.

I worked with Karon several months after my Trolley x Car accident and the things I learned enabled me to do things physically that I didn’t think would ever be possible.

You’ll learn how the program is designed to improve posture, pain, & performance via mobility & strength training.

Why your hamstrings are so tight & why stretching them is pointless

Why your low back is tight & why pushing it into the floor during abs is part of the problem

Why your shoulder mobility won’t be solved with static stretching

The concept of pelvis & rib cage alignment that will blow your mind and change how you think about movement and exercise.

August 09, 2021Tim Grover's "W1NNING 13" With a Fitness Transformation Spin
In this episode, I review the 13 definitions of winning as outlined in Tim Grover's latest book "W1NNING, The Unforgiving Race To Greatness."

However, I trade the word "winning" with "transformation" and highlight why so many people never see the physical & mental transformation they want.

And for those that do make a transformation, you'll learn why it's so hard to keep from falling back down the mountain.

August 06, 2021Recalibrate Your Relationship w/Alcohol, Level Up Your Fitness, & Get More Out Of Life
In this episode, I share about my journey with alcohol. How I went from not drinking at all in high school, to binge drinking in college and well into my 20's, to getting into yoga, mindfulness, and becoming the fitness coach I am today.

Though heavy drinking is far from a rare occurrence, my goal with this podcast is to shift the perspective of people that feel stuck in a viscous cycle while knowing they are capable of more.

This podcast dives into the science of how moderating alcohol will improve your training, weight loss efforts, and sleep. While also providing several practical tips so you live in alignment with your core values, your purpose, and ultimately get more out of life.

August 04, 2021Ep. 110 - Are you willing to take the final shot?
Why is it that so many people say they "want" to make a change, but never do? We all have a vision of a better life. One that is more inspiring and fulfilling.

The difference between visions that come true and visions that don't is consistent & bold action. Taking the final shot(s) to win the game instead of not taking the shot because you're afraid to mess up.

In this episode, I reflect on the last 3 years since my last day at Amazon HQ and why I prefer shooting too many shot than too few.
