Backstory about Barton:
Barton lives in Austin, TX with his wife Valerie and their 8 year old son, Jack.  Barton's been a personal trainer for 15  years.  Barton and his family love outdoor hikes, traveling, and living a healthy lifestyle.  His background in the arts, sports, and working in Africa all inform his unique perspective.  

Barton hung up his basketball shoes after high school and decided to pursue music; specifically vocal performance.  He never sang at Davis High School, but when he arrived in San Diego, CA for college, he went for it! Barton sang in operas like "Marriage of Figaro" and "La Boheme," took acting classes, and performed a solo concert to receive his BA in Music.  Before graduation,  he spent a year in Aix-en-Provence studying French and traveling Europe and North Africa.  Barton's two trips to Morocco instilled in him a curiosity and profound respect for the diverse cultures of  West Africa.  Once back in the US, he applied for the Peace Corps so he cohttps://www.instagram.com/bartonguybryan/uld travel back to Africa and immerse himself in the culture and learn about their way of life.  Barton spent two years in Diadjibine, a small village of 2,500 people in Southern Mauritania, West Africa.  As a Peace Corp volunteer, he taught English, helped build water pumps, and started a solar-powered computer center.   The time in Mauritania shaped Barton's mindset on the importance of community, teamwork, leadership, and supporting hard-working people who don't have the resources Americans have at their fingertips.  

After Peace Corps, Barton moved to New York City to pursue singing and acting.  He was accepted into the Maggie Flanigan Studio and spent two years studying Meisner technique and writing a one man show about what he learned as a Peace Corps in West Africa.  His show opened up new doors for him and he performed it around the country.  On one of his trips, he traveled to Austin, TX where he met Valerie.   Barton moved to Austin after graduating from the Acting Studio and four months later, they were married.  

When Barton moved to  Austin in 2007, he became a personal trainer.  concurrently, Barton created  a voluntourism company taking people to East and West Africa to do volunteer work and enjoying Safaris.   He was introduced to Camp Gladiator in 2012 and his love for performing and passion for fitness made Camp Gladiator a perfect fit.  He sold his tour company and went all in to his new role with Camp Gladiator.  

The Mindset Forge Podcast is Barton's  newest passion. Barton hopes the podcast will  help  people  find the tools and inspiration to go after the things in life that matter most to them.  He deliberately chooses guests from a variety of athletic and artistic backgrounds to help listeners gain multiple perspective of how they show up big for performance and how we can too.

Barton and Michael talk Acting from their days in the Maggie Flanigan Studio to how Michael handled such a dynamic and flawed character as Shane Mungitt in the Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play "Take me Out".  
Highlights include: 

• How he prepares mentally for the big moments at the end when his character is dragged off stage. 
• How he sees the “tightrope” of being in the moment, acknowledging the audience, and being a part of a company of actors. 
• His perspective on the importance of live theater and the magic of acting in live performances.  

Michael Oberholtzer's Broadway and off-Broadway credits include Hand to God, The Babylon Line (Lincoln Center Theater) and The Talls (Second Stage). He has appeared on film and television in Sneaky Pete (Amazon), Good Girls Revolt (Amazon), The Americans (FX), Forever (ABC), NYC 22 (CBS), Law & Order (NBC), Delivery Man, HairBrained, Hits, Cut Shoot Kill, Trouble, Staring at the Sun, Aardvark and South Mountain.

Barton and Harold enjoy a lively discussion about the 15 steps to a Champion Mindset.  Some of the topics include:  

• the habits and focus of high level athletes, 
• what the "Twisty's" are and why Simone Biles opted out of performing in the 2020 Olympic Games, 
• The three W's to avoid as an athlete,
• and breaking down how to learn about a performance  by asking three questions immediately after the event happens.  

Dr. Shinitzky is a highly sought after presenter nationally and internationally. He is the developer of A Champion's Mindset, and The Winning Zone. He also co-authored the book, "A Champions Mindset: 15 Mental Conditioning Steps to Becoming a Champion Athlete" and works with nationally ranked junior, collegiate, Olympic and professional athletes (PGA, NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL). Dr. Harold E. Shinitzky, Psy. D. is located in Clearwater and St. Petersburg Florida. 

The specialization of Sport Psychology is an interdisciplinary field that integrates decades of research from biomechanics, kinesiology, physiology and psychology. Sport Psychology is the synthesis of these fields as they apply to the impact of psychological factors affecting athletic performance as well as the science of assessing the effects of sport and exercise on psychological and physical factors. A Sport Psychologist applies this wealth of knowledge when working with the athlete, teams, coaches, and parents and covers numerous skills which can be developed in order to improve or achieve optimal athletic performance. A Sport Psychologist is an individual who has earned a doctoral degree in Psychology, has completed an internship and post-doctoral training and passed the national examination to be a Licensed Psychologist. As a Sport Psychologist, I help nationally ranked junior athletes all the way to Olympic and professional athletes from every association.  Working with these athletes we seek to improve mental toughness, personal motivation, goal-setting, and emotion management to attain their greatest athletic abilities as well as life skills in order to be a better person today and after they conclude their athletic career.

Brendan Hansen is a three time gold medalist Swimmer who showed up at the University of Texas at 18 years old and wrote “Man on a Mission” on tape and placed it on his gym locker. Why was he a man on a mission? He had just lost in the two events at the  Olympic trials and was not going to represent the USA at the Olympics in 2000. That failure motivated him not just as a freshman at Texas but for the next four years. In the four years between 2000 - 2004, he would become the fastest breaststroker in the world and break the world record in the 100m and 200m events.

In this interview, Mindset Forge host Barton and Brendan discuss how failures can be so motivating, how when he was surrounded by elite swimmers at the University of Texas it brought the best out of him and how we can do that in our own lives to bring the best out of ourselves. And finally, he talks about how  the culture of a great team can be the secret sauce that helps everyone level up to their maximum potential because of peer to peer accountability.

Established Mindset

From childhood, the concept of failure was already known to Brendan. He got used to failure quickly because he hung out with his brother’s friends, who are three years older than he is. His parents would describe his mindset as very much like the underdog. So when Brendan got into swimming, he quickly pushed his capabilities to the limit. He had an excellent developmental coach who was there to make every failure a learning opportunity. Whenever Brendan does something wrong, his coach would pull him to the side and tell him how to do it correctly. Having this foundation of mindset was what made Brendan ready to take head-on whatever challenge there is. Being told that he is going to fail his way to success was perceived positively rather than negatively. It was perceived as a way to grow from the experience, and that helps Brendan understand how to tweak moving forward.

Jeremy was an early adopter of CrossFit back in 2005 and began his journey as a coach and CrossFit Games competitor from 2007 - 2015 and an individual and on a team.  He is married with three kids and he and his sister own CrossFit Central in Austin, TX.  

In 2005 Jeremy was introduced to the sport of CrossFit his good friend and Marine, Lance Cantu. Immediately, he knew he had discovered the path he had been seeking since he first started training. This was not just a game he was going to play, but something he was going take part in that would effect positive change on a large scale. Naturally he dove in head first.

Motivated by results, Jeremy felt the best way to learn was through action. Action, hard work, dedication, and discipline were the tools he utilized to take $500 and build a million dollar garage gym facility, CrossFit Central, in less than three years. He built from the ground up. In 2005 Jeremy along with his sister Carey started by running boot camps in parks all around Austin. He worked from his one bedroom apartment day in and day out blogging, emailing and programming; strong relationships sprouted out of his emphasis on the importance of being heavily involved in the Austin fitness community. Jeremy laid the foundation for his future by hiring a strong team; coupling his drive with people who were passionate about CrossFit and dedicated to the company’s vision.
