We're back!

In this episode, we talk about the value of taking action. Look, we've all been in a place where we let our mind wonder too long and let it stop us from taking action for whatever reason. We get scared, we procrastinate, or maybe we're just straight up lazy / not committed. It's human nature to think of all the "bad" things that could happen and everything that could possibly go wrong. We're wired to survive, so when something seems threatening to any extent, our first instinct is to stop and think about what we're about to do. We're not saying you should completely disregard those impulses and ignore your fears. What we are saying is that if you have an idea that you're passionate about or if you have something you really want to do but you're hesitant for whatever reason - you're not going to find out if it will succeed until you go for it!

Goals and ambitions should be scary. You should dream so big that other people think you're crazy. That's part of doing great things. If you're scared that just means that you're thinking about doing something BIG. Nothing great has ever happened without fear. Don't ignore that fear - embrace it. Having a dream and a plan is great, but if you never take action then those things are just thoughts.

We hope y'all enjoy this episode! Love y'all and we'll catch ya next time!

It's been a minute, but we're back!

As everyone who's a member at the gym knows, we lost Coach Addy to Colorado. She's moving to continue her life adventure, and while we're sad that she's leaving, we are SO incredibly proud of her for not only doing something that she's wanted to do for herself, but for stepping out of her comfort zone once again and doing something scary!

Addy - we are so grateful for the friendship we've all built over the past 4-5 years. You're selflessness in helping with whatever we need at the gym has been invaluable and has not gone unnoticed! We cannot express our gratitude for you and your help in making our dream of Vigor become a reality!

Go give Addy a follow on IG and TikTok and be apart of her journey!

Tune in next week to hear Steph and Trev talk about the importance of taking action and not wasting time over thinking!

Welcome back!

Comin in hot with a full length episode! In this episode we talk about our current top 5 qualities (in our opinions) of high achievers. We are far from where we want to be, and we aren't saying we know best. We also understand that we change as we grow, so who's to say these won't change in the next 5 years?! 

What are your top 5 qualities? Do you even know the answer? It's important to know who you want to be so you have something to work towards! Make a list and compare yours to ours!

Love y'all and catch ya next time!

Howdy! There's been a lot going on the last few weeks, but we're back!

The first 20 minutes is our typical rant section talking about money / power hungry elites and our thoughts on this year's NFL Pro Bowl.

In the second half of the episode we talk about what keeps us moving forward, which is our mission: To encourage and empower others through health and fitness to live their best and healthiest life. 

Life for everyone is hard to some extent. Everyone has their own struggles going on and road blocks they're trying to go through. We give our thoughts on the importance of doing hard things, and how we keep striving to get better every day.

Without a why, your chances of progress are slim to none. Figure out why you do what you do, and keep that at the forefront of your mind every single day. What's your mission? 

Welcome back!

It's true. CrossFit is a word. That's it. Before that word was invented, a thruster was just a squat to press. A clean was a clean. A burpee was a burpee. A muscle up was a muscle up. Now, because a word was invented, all those MVMNTs are shoved into the umbrella of "CrossFit" and it shouldn't be that way!

If you're a die-hard CrossFitter listening to this episode then try to open your mind and hear our hearts. We get a little firey because we are so passionate about health and fitness, but know we're coming from a good place! We love the sport of CrossFit. We still compete in it and have an absolute BLAST! However, is it REALLY for everyone? Do you really think everyone should be doing handstand push-ups? Do you think everyone should do barbell snatches? Is there added benefits to a handstand push-up that you can't get with an overhead press? The answer to all of those questions (in our opinions) is absolutely not. 

Those are all cool and fun to do, but they are 100% not necessary for fitness and in this episode we talk about our stance on CrossFit from all angles. 

Again, try to put your biases aside. If you're an anti CrossFitter then this episode is for you too because we also talk about why we love the sport and why people who have never done it have no business bashing it!

Our bottom line - it doesn't matter what style of fitness you do. The most important aspects of training you should be working on no matter what kind of workouts you do are: Lift weights, do cardio, do mobility, and make sure you're doing those things with proper technique. If you're hitting all of those major points then forget what anyone else has to say! 

Listen in to this fun episode and let us know what y'all think!

Do you get anxiety about your nutrition when traveling? Or maybe you don't get anxiety about it, but you would like to be more disciplined / consistent with your food when traveling or on vacation. We got you! 

We're HUGE foodies at heart, but we also pay attention to the food / drinks we put in our bodies when traveling because we want to make sure we are eating / drinking to support our goal MOST of the time. 

It doesn't have to be super complex. Quick tip: Always prioritize protein, and if you're not very active while traveling then limit your carbs. 

If you struggle with this, then get your pen and paper out and take notes!

If you want more details, or would like to hear us talk about something in particular then drop your questions in the box attached to this episode!

Yes.... We still have a podcast! XD

It's been a minute! We haven't dropped an episode for a few months, and we are sorry for putting it off for so long! We actually started another episode on a completely different topic, then decided to re-record it and go another route. We WILL drop that episode in the future, but we'll wait a while for that particular episode. 

Anyway, we are back to our normal, weekly schedule of bringing you at least one new episode per week!

First and foremost - THANK YOU! Thank all of you who have supported and continue to support what we are doing! We say it in the beginning of every episode, but we are truly on a mission to create a MVMNT of like minded people who want the best for themselves AND for others! We are slowly, but surely growing our audience and it's all because of YOU! Because you take the time out of your busy lives to listen to our message, and share it with others. Without all of you supporting us, we would be nothing. So, from the bottom of our hearts - THANK YOU!

We really wanted to bring y'all an exceptionally great episode for number 100. We had so many ideas, and really that was part of the hold up. We were so focused on doing something huge that we kept putting it off because we never felt we had something good enough. Well, we didn't get a interview with someone big like we originally wanted, but we did bring our best on this one! The title tells you exactly what we talk about. Of course there are some laughs in there, as always, but we hope our message in this episode is clear and overall helps you to just keep going. No matter what it is you're chasing - keep chipping away one day at a time. You are strong. You are capable. You are WORTH IT!

Love y'all, and we'll catch ya next week!

Got into a great conversation on this episode!

Starting out with an incomprehensible new business that opened in Russia.. you'll never guess what it is, so just get ready to be blown away and slightly concerned. Going into a "yes or no" segment where Trev throws out a word and Steph says "yes" or "no" to it. Just listen and you'll understand what I'm talking about. 

After that we get into the main topic. Last week Steph read a quote and Trev gave his opinion on the quote. This week we flipped the script. "If you can't handle stress, you won't manage success." We get into a great conversation on the quote and talk about what that means to us personally.

Next episode is 100! We can't express our gratitude enough for all the support y'all have shown us over the past two years with the podcast! We are slowly gaining new listeners here and there and that's all because y'all have taken the time out of your day to share the episodes and talk about it with your friends and family! We're nowhere where we want to be and we have a lot of learning to do, but we've had fun with this podcast and that's what it's all about for us! Having fun and providing value (even if we don't know what we're doing still XD)

Love y'all and we'll catch ya on episode 100!
