Zealous State of Mind Podcast with the Guru of Gainz

Phineas Mann

Really enjoyed catching up with Chris and learning about his background and Strongman journey so far.

Chris has done a great job of building the sport and community of Strongman/Strongwoman over the past 6 years in NZ. He has also opened and built up his own gym NZ Strongman HQ over the last few years.

Chris is a no nonsense straight shooter which I found refreshing and I'm sure you'll enjoy. 

Jordan Papa is the owner of JP Athletic which is based in South Auckland. JP trains athletes of all levels and from all sports. An athlete in Rugby League & Touch Football himself, he knows what it takes to excel and come back better than ever from injuries that most athletes experience somewhere along in their athletic career.

Sly is a man of many talents and was the Owner/Operator of CrossFit Infinite for 11 years before recently handing over the reigns. 

Sly has a background in IT but the entrepreneur in Sly has led him into many ventures such as having a hand in a healthy food delivery business, smoothie bowl business, running many CrossFit competitions (Two 2 Tango, Triple X, Fittest Mum & Too Fit To Quit) all while running his beloved box CrossFit Infinite.

Sly shares about life before CrossFit, why he's always been active, an important lesson he learned from his mum, how he got into CrossFit, things he's learned along the way, what he is up to next with his Infinite Consciousness retreat and much more! 

As always, I learned more than expected and I'm sure you will too.

It's been a couple of months since my last update show and a few things have shifted in my mind which I thought would be good to share while it's fresh on my mind.

- Co-host update

- Finally tied of the normal work day routine

- 6 months of Knees Over Toes Training

- Basketball Coaching

 Really enjoyed getting to know Will who is the host of the Please Blow My Mind Podcast. He's also a husband, father, lecturer, student, videographer, entrepreneur and very thoughtful among many other things.  

In this episode Will shares some very insightful (mind blowing🤯) information about breathing and simple practices that ANYONE can do to improve their overall health.  

Will has a wealth of knowledge and experience around breath work and  this space in general, so tune into this episode, follow along with his business @manavabreathing and his podcast as he goes a bit deeper into this subject. Enjoy! #ZealousStateofMind #GuruofGainz #WesWesNet #PleaseBlowMyMind
