Episodes

  1. A Little Strength Goes a Long Way

    Are you lifting weights for your sport or martial art? Probably isn't helping, is it? That's probably because you're doing too much for it to be effective and following a routine that preaches balance and all that malarkey. Sport specific strength training is only as good as the athlete's ability...

  2. Food vs. Supplements

    Some post-seminar thoughts about the "Nutrition for Athletes" seminar last night at WEphysio Performance and Wellness. The podcast still has a takeaway for you even if you didn't attend, so still give it a listen.

  3. Why Recurring Injuries Happen

    Getting injured is never a good thing. About the only thing worse, is re-injuring your original injury.

  4. How to Heal Faster from Sports Injuries with Food

    Maybe supplements and medications are useless for healing injuries, but food sure isn't. With a couple of minor tweaks to your diet, you can mend a lot faster than the baseline predictions would suggest.

  5. Healing Injuries with Supplements and Medications

    Want to heal injuries fast? Don't we all.

  6. Phasing Your Training

    How you divide your calendar will decide how well you perform in your sport. With a couple of simple examinations of what phase or season you are in, there are gains to be had.

  7. Study the History of Your Sport or Martial Art

    Most of the people participating in sports don't know much beyond the rules and a couple of generations of teams, coaches, and players. That's leaving a lot of important information out, not the least of which is how we got here in the first place.

  8. Get the Gear You Need to Train

    Starting a new workout or sport can be expensive. Not as expensive as regret, but still; it can get pricey. Figure out what your equipment needs are before you sign up or buy anything. Budget accordingly, but also, get the right gear.

  9. Is Stretching Important?

    Stretching sometimes works, sometimes doesn't, but also seems to be a question in the minds of athletes. Should you be stretching or can you skip it completely? Unfortunately, it depends. Just like everything in sports science.

  10. Do You Need a Personal Trainer?

    Are you contemplating adding a personal trainer to your lifestyle? Listen to this first.

  11. The Best Squat Variation You Should Already Be Doing

    Squats are a key exercise for improved athleticism and performance, but which type of squats? There are dozens of variations and it can be difficult to choose the right one. Today's podcast removes the decision making for you.

  12. Athletes Should Donate Blood

    Are you afraid to donate blood because you train and compete all the time? Neither of those are great reasons; actually, they're basically excuses. Donate blood. There are minor disadvantages but major advantages, not the least of which is you will be saving lives. Who knows, maybe even your own.

  13. Your Sport is the Best Exercise You Can Do

    Burpees? Deadlifts? Squats? Chin ups? Sprints? Why are we doing all these exercises? Are they making us better at our sport? They better be or we're doing something wrong.

  14. The Number One Sports Supplement in the World

    Dozens of studies. Pennies per serving. Documented benefits across multiple populations. Why aren't we all taking this supplement?

  15. Recovery Workouts Don't Help You Recover

    How many of you go for "shakeout" runs or do recovery workouts after a hard effort or competition? Maybe it's time to stop.

  16. One Simple Fix for Better Health, Wellness, and Fitness

    For the sake of 15-20 minutes a couple of times each day, you could be a lot healthier. Want to know what you should be doing? Give a listen, learn a lot.

  17. Exercise Variation is Overrated and Unnecessary

    You are probably changing your exercises too often. Too often for what? Too often to get good at them. There are lots of other ways to avoid stagnation; exercise variation is the least effective.

  18. Hardgainers and Exercise Non-Responders

    Do hardgainers exist or are they just doing everything wrong? Spoiler alert, it's the latter.

  19. Concentric-Only Workouts for Higher Levels of Fitness

    This is the "secret weapon" of fitness that rarely gets talked about when it comes to maximizing training recovery. Keep doing what you're doing, but do a little more; that's how champions are made.

  20. How to Improve Your Running or Footwork with One Simple Exercise

    If you're not doing this one simple exercise, you're missing out on some extra performance when it comes to your running or footwork.

  21. How to Increase Punching Power

    Are you lifting weights to increase your punching power? Probably not a bad idea. But are you lifting the right weights for the right muscles? That's the real question. Once you get the technique right for a punch, you have to convince your body to let you throw that punch with maximum effort. We...

  22. Debunking Three Nutrition Myths

    What do super foods, the maximum amount of protein you can eat in a single meal, and frequent meals to speed up your metabolism all have in common? They have almost no scientific support. In other words, they're all myths. And they need to go away.

  23. How to Train Specifically for Competitions

    A lot of coaches and athletes make the mistake of ignoring the clues their sports leave them. By performing a "needs assessment" on your competitive requirements, it becomes much easier to design effective training that matches those needs. All in all, it will help the athlete perform at their…
