  23. Does sweating equal a good workout?

    Does sweating equal a good workout? Episode 42 | 10/15/2019 | #Truth Tuesday Short answer: not necessarily. Long answer: Sweating is a way for your body to cool off.

  24. Write it down

    Ok today's Monday Motivation, I recommend writing down your next day's task and schedule to help improve your discipline and productivity.

  25. Do you enjoy what you do?

    On today's Fun Friday, I talk about creating the joy you want in your life and work, and with the world and others.

  26. What's the worst that can happen?

    On today's Transformation Thursday, I talk about visualizing the worst case scenario prior to a challenging task (like meeting strangers at a networking event).

  27. Rep ranges

    On today's Workout Wednesday, I talk about how to pick your rep range for what is usually the regular person's goal - look better, feel better, do better.

  28. Does hurt equal harm?

    On today's Truth Tuesday, I talk about the assumption (perhaps erroneously) that if we feel pain that the area has damage.

  29. Accountability

    On today's Monday Motivation, I talk about ways to hold yourself accountable for better success when trying to make positive change in your life.

  30. Spinal cord regeneration

    On today's Fun Friday, we talk about the future of spinal cord regeneration and what could help the person walk again.

  32. Workout frequency and splits

    Today on workout Wednesday, we discuss how often to train, how to set it up, and scheduling.

  33. What is truth

    Intro to our first segment of Truth Tuesday, we discuss what is 'truth', scientific method, understanding, and seeking out alternative explanations for things we see and believe.

  34. Motivation recap

  35. Intro to fun friday

    Introduction to my new segment series called Fun Friday, where I'll discuss some interesting topic (probably Sci Fi type stuff). I'm going to continue with daily segment series, probably like a Monday Motivation. Enjoy!

  36. Sloptimal

    Shout out to Scot Morrison for this topic. Since normal life and recovery has ups/downs, we have to adjust what we do to match that. Instead of worrying about things being perfect, we sometimes need just enough, i.e. sloptimal.

  37. Looking at others

    We discuss how looking at what other people do can have positive and negative effects on your progress.

  38. Linking behaviors

    Discussing a strategy to help add positive behaviors or reduce/eliminate negative behaviors.

  39. Why do you do it?

    Exploring the reasons of why we do the things we do, from external to internal. This can be helpful with motivation.

  40. How many should I do?

    A question often asked, and the answer depends on what your goal is. But for most people there is a practical range for general strength training.

    What is progressive overload and how it applies to strength training, and some other thoughts about it.

  45. Chronic Pain Part 3

    Decided to dive one more time into some other thoughts about chronic pain. Most likely will come back to the topic later on as my thoughts swirl back around to it.

  46. Chronic pain part 2

    Piggy backing on yesterdays podcast of trying to understand chronic pain, today talking about potential ideas and solutions to try and help at least from a movement/physical therapy/fitness perspective.

  47. Chronic pain

    Understanding some of the things behind chronic or persistent pain.

  48. Uncertainty

    There are many potential, often uncertain outcomes with the choices we make. We must embrace this uncertainty and we can attempt to mitigate it with honesty and cost-benefit analysis.

  49. Motivation and discipline

    Motivation is often fleeting and attempting to rely on it solely for your improvement can be a mistake. Instead, focus on developing discipline towards the improvements you are trying to make.
