Fresh back from his recent Everest success with a small party of 4 Sean took time out to chat to use before heading on his next adventure as we spoke:

-How fit do you need to be to climb Everest

-Is Everest the hardest mountain

-A life of adventure

-Putting more in than you take out

Today we’re throwing it back to Podcast #382 when Andrew “Monty” Montgomery joined us on the show nearly 2 years ago. You may have known Monty as the bike guy but there’s so much more to the Scot who managed Oasis’ Liam Gallagher’s clothing store. Monty talks about the importance of being honest, not pretending to be someone you’re not and the book that changed his life. Hope you enjoy the show as we discuss:

-Liam Gallagher

-Honesty

-Finding cycling

-Just being a good dude

In this show she takes us step by step up the mountain and it literally is gripping the way that she delivers her story. We also ask her about how this seasons events on Everest were covered in the media with regards to the increased numbers of deaths and the number of people causing human traffic jams in vital places as well as:

-Having energy

-If you want something it will happen

-Deaths on Everest

-Whats next

We could not round out this series without talking to you about food and drink now could we? So here we go as we chat:

-Freezing water and gels

-Sweat test

-Post workout nutrition

-Bloating

InnerFight was founded in 2008 on the back of my passion to help people “get better at life”. In this show pretty much for the first time I talk about how it all started and then get out my crystal ball and try and predict what will happen in the future. It’s been a great ride. Hope you enjoy the show as I talk:

-The early days

-Having a plan

-CrossFit?

-If it makes sense we will do it

So you liked the sound of last weeks show on the Technogym Skill Run but you are not a runner? No stress. We have some equally good news for all you cyclists out there. If you haven’t already listened to show #529 in which we address the basis of this series in “Why we suffer in the heat” then be sure to have a listen.This week is all about bringing your cycling indoors:

-Types of indoor trainer

-The importance of bike set up

-Software to entertain you

-Virtual cycling to recruit talent

“Things are not like they used to be” is a phrase that the old school seem to be bounding around these days like never before. Do they have a point or are they just growing old too fast. But we are not only talking about kids here, grown ups are entering sports competitions based on the size of medal they are going to get just for “finishing”. In this show Tom and Marcus try and breakdown the topic of “participation” as they talk:

-Are we motivated for the wrong reasons?

-Who worked harder, the winner or last place?

-Ironman Tattoos

-The CrossFit leader board

Last week we kicked off this series talking all about “why we suffer in the heat” so if you didn’t check out that show it would be a good idea to give it a listen as we move this week into specifically talking about bringing your running indoors.Already you may be thinking “running inside is boring” well in this show we prove to you that it doesn’t need to be as we chat:

-Technogym skill run for the win

-Benefits of treadmill sessions

-Types of sessions to try

-Treadmills are not boring

Our vision at InnerFight is “making people better at life” and it runs through everything we do and everyone that is a part of us. Our coaching staff are an integral part of this vision and we have and always will recruit coaches based on a fit rather than a demand.

-Their backgrounds

-Their first CrossFit workout

-What they love about coaching

-A single piece of advice
