Catching up with Kelsey. Pediatric Therapist by day, Hybrid athlete by night. In this episode, we talk about anxiety, and how to counter the "voice" and "feeling." For many of us who have experienced or know someone who has experienced anxiety, we know how crippling it can be. Anxiety isn't our identity, and feelings are neither good nor bad, right nor wrong, they just are. Great episode! We hope you enjoy! Please help us by tagging and sharing this episode with other athletes and friends!

Do you know how to release C02 more efficiently?

In today's podcast, we've got Hawaiian Native, Coach Jono Blodgett, 3x Spartan AG World Champ, OA Breath Coach, XPT Water Pro! Coach Jono gives us the rundown and a lesson on breathing techniques when under pressure. Anyone who dives and carry’s boulders along the ocean floor as a hobby knows something we don’t know about breathing. And that's Coach Jono for ya! Enjoy this episode and share it with someone training.

Follow Coach Jono on IG @jonoblodgett for more tips, coaching, and inspiration.

21 days until Summer! We love training in the summer. It's beautiful. Everyone wants to be outside. Ice cream and slushies just hit different. It is also HOT. Heat is an element of summer that we all kind of react to differently. Some really enjoy the heat. Others can stand the heat. Heat (like freezing temperatures) can have a big influence on the way we choose to train and how well we perform. That is why we thought it would be a great idea to speak with someone that has done a little research on 'How to stay cool.'

To refresh the memories, we had Ryan on the podcast in episode 012, where he talked about how we need to stop breathing the wrong way. In this episode, Ryan gives us tips on how to stay cool before and during training in the heat.

Ryan is certified in Functional Movement, and through out the process of becoming certified, breathing techniques and heat management are only some of the things he quickly became a passionate about within the required material.

Grab your lunch, because it's time for Lunchside Chats!

We couldn't be more stoked about the launch of this series and these conversations. Lunchside chats are designed to be short, meaningful, and something you can listen to during lunch or on your commute. We also are aiming to talk with more people. Pros and Specialist are great, but we'd be missing 1000's of athletes if we left the interviews to just that. In Lunchside Chats, you'll hear from all types of athletes and enthusiasts.

On this first episode of Lunchside Chats, we introduce Grant. Such a good time. Grant was originally a collegiate Water Polo athlete but then converted into a runner. Grant walks us through this journey and we learn so much about perseverance. He is driven and he is going to the top.

Ways to keep up with Grant:
