TWO MORE EPISODES until we hit 100!

Welcome back to another duo episode! We had a lot of fun in this one, starting with our top 5 candy picks, a game of ask 20 questions to figure out what "Trever is thinking," then we get into the mindset piece where Steph reads a quote to Trev and Trev gives his reaction to the quote. 

Listen in for some laughs and a new perspective on how strong minded people receive things differently than weak minded people. 

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

We are BACK!

It's been a couple weeks since we've done a duo episode, and we're sorry about that! We have had a ton of things going on at Vigor that we are so pumped about and can't wait to reveal more details!

We start the episode with a surprise mock draft for all things Fall and our top 5 fast food joints!

The main topic for today is the second part of the title. How many times have you said "I just don't have time," or "I can't do that," to somehow justify not doing something? For example, "I can't workout in the morning because I'm not a morning person." Rephrase that. You CAN workout in the morning, but you don't prioritize going to bed on time so that you can wake up earlier. We have to stop blaming outside factors for our own conscious decisions. Just say what it is - "it's not a priority." Progress starts with acknowledging the decisions you make. If you keep blaming other things, or coming up with sh*tty excuses as to why you can't do something, then you're going to stay right where you are.. forever. 

This episode is a little shorter than what we've been putting out, but we'll be back with a full length episode soon and we have some great topics planned for y'all!

I head this quote in a recent podcase I was listening to! 

 That quote was "Stop trying to have the story without the struggle!"  

It really inspired me and I wanted to bring yall a little Monday motivation by breaking down why you need to start embracing your sturggles and realize that they are a HUGE part of YOUR STORY!!  

A part that other will relate to the most!  Hope you enjoy and as always please share this podcast with your friends, family or anyone you think can benefit from it! 

 Have a great day and a great week!  You got this!

Happy Humpday squad!

Helpful note: We went in on football talk a lot longer than we planned, so if you want to skip to the meat and potatoes of the main topic, fast forward to the 30 minute mark. 

How many people do you know live with chronic anxiety? How do they deal with it? Maybe it's you. How do you deal with your anxiety? Binge eating drinking, working out (more), laying in bed all day..? It's normal, especially in today's crazy ass world, to have anxiety from time to time, but all forms of anxiety have one common denominator - worrying about things you don't have full control over. That test you're nervous about, the job you want, your relationship(s).. whatever it may be, you worry about the unknown. You worry about whether or not it's going to work out "in your favor," which is an issue in itself. The world doesn't revolve around you and your wants/needs. 

Working out is a great way to deal with stress, don't get me wrong, but working out harder or more is NOT the answer. You're already stressed out. Putting more stress on your body is going to do nothing but cause more issues. The sooner you can understand that no particular thing or event is going to make or break you.. the sooner you accept that all you can do is give your best effort and let the cards fall where they may, the sooner you'll be able to beat your anxiety and live a life worth living. 

We hope y'all enjoy this episode and get some value out of it! If this resonates with you - great! If someone comes to mind when listening, please send it to them and help us continue growing and impacting as many people as possible!

Happy Monday!

We're a little late in publishing this episode, but nevertheless - here it is!

We've talked before about how important your thoughts and words are, and the role those play in your daily execution. If you're going through a difficult or challenging time, be careful of how the things you think and say. They are a HUGE influence in the way you approach things in your life!

We move onto key indicators in our life that prove our growth over the years. While we're nowhere near where we want to be personally or as a business, it's still important to acknowledge the growth that you have made since starting whatever journey it is that you're on! Reflection is imperative to growth, so acknowledging how far you have or haven't come, and understanding what things have helped you is something that is going to help you continue growing or even START growing in the first place!

Hope y'all enjoy the episode! Since we were late posting this one, get ready for a second episode later this week!

Happy Humpday squad!

We have a lot of stuff going on at Vigor the next couple months! We are competing at HOA (CrossFit competition in Springfield, MO) we're hosting our own competition in October (14th and 15th partner competition - get signed up!) we have a 5k charity event for Brace 4 Impact, and we have RuckTember starting TOMORROW September 1st! Listen in for more details!

We ended up getting into the main topic of "Living a False Reality" a little later than we anticipated, so there will be a part two to this!

Hope y'all enjoy the episode! Tell ya friends, family, and anyone else you think would get value out of the show! Let's keep growing and impacting as many people as possible! Love y'all! Until next time - PEACE!

We're back with another longer duo episode! Getting close to episode 100, and best believe we are planning something amazing for y'all!

In this episode we talk about being a college athlete in our day vs in today's landscape, assessing the things you say "yes" to, being the leader you are proud of, and we also answer a question from our guy in Memphis, AD, about dealing with a setback injury. 

Give it a listen and let us know what y'all think!

Happy Monday, team! Back with another solo episode from ya boy, Stephone. I am pumped about this one because it's going to be a great way to start your week off AND it's going to challenge you. I don't ask a lot of questions during these episodes but today, I ask a tough question that I really want you to think about and answer for yourself!

Welcome back! Or, if you're new, welcome to the show!

In episode 90 we open with opinions on what we believe to be the real reason behind Kaep's kneeling, then we get into the main topics of the show!

When it comes to the framework of your life, we mean the things you surround yourself with on a daily basis that mold you into the person you are. Whether you believe it or not, the things you consume and the people you hang around play such a MASSIVE role in the person you are and the way you handle adversity. If you're a kind, brave, and actually logical person, chances are you are surrounded by people who are also like that. If you are constantly complaining, angry / mean, and let your emotions guide your decisions, you most definitely do NOT have positive influences in your life. Think of the content you consume and the people you hang around as the frame of a house. Everything that holds up the shell of a house. The strong parts that, if you were to take them away, the house would collapse. You are the shell. You are what everyone sees and interacts with, but the people and content you choose to let into your life are what's holding you up. If those people are kind, encouraging, and logical, you will have a badass house! If they are weak minded, mean, and have a victim mentality, your house is gonna be shit and no one's gonna come to your parties. (Silly analogy, I know, but it's relatable).

We also get into the power of fear, and how it should be used to help you move forward as opposed to holding you back.

Enjoy the episode! Please feel free to share and/or leave us a rating!

We love y'all and, until next time, #KeepGoing

Happy Tuesday Fam!

We picked this idea up from someone we have followed for a few years now, Rob Dyrdek. You might know him from the show "Rob and Big" or another show he did "Fantasy Factory" or the series he's had on MTV for the past 9 or so years called "Ridiculousness." Rob started as a hometown skateboarder, and has grown into a massively successful entrepreneur. He built multiple million dollar businesses and is just a (seemingly) awesome dude all around. We'll link the podcast of his we got this idea from. When we heard this, we immediately thought that we needed to recreate his episode and put it in our own words for y'all to hear. 

Get your pen and paper ready! You might want to take some notes!
