Sustainable Pathways to High Performance with Dr. Eric Helms
from Consilience Podcast Hosted by Shannon Beer
Holistic health and high performance are rarely spoken about under the same breath. If you care about your health, you don't have what it takes to achieve great things - right? Not at all. To elucidate how we can chase high performance in sustainable ways, I sat down with Dr. Eric Helms. Eric is a Research Fellow at the Sports Performance Research Institute New Zealand. He researches physique and strength sport, specifically training and nutrition, with an emphasis on long-term sport careers holistically integrated with life. He is also a coach, athlete, author, and educator who is all about supporting lifting careers with sustainable methods. We discussed: Obstacles to sustainable pathways to high performance Striving to be a holistic athlete Protecting our identity as we chase external rewards A modified intuitive eating approach for sports performance Reframing negatives into story of resilience, agency & choice.
