The Josh Tills Coaching Podcast

In todays episode I break down 5 lessons that I learned from rowing across the Pacific Ocean - more specifically the mid PacificA 2700 mile voyage between Monterey, CA and Honolulu, HA I completed this with other friends back in 2021 as a way to fundraise for a few different charities. The unsupported expedition took us 43 days where we rowed in pairs in alternating 1 hour intervals. The are ample threats & dangers of rowing at sea and we certainly experienced our fair share of them. I talk about some in this episode but more importantly I share the 5 biggest lessons that I learned and took from the voyage I look back very fondly at my time at sea despite the scars it left me with. I am certainly not done with the ocean - I just need to spend some time focusing on building my business and acquiring my osteopathy degree. The rest of the endurance team are currently preparing for another expedition to row the entire navigable length of the Amazon in 2024 in another effort to fundraiser for Great Ormand Street Hospital in London.

This was a fun one to record despite being bacback on my own! Hoping to bring you another guest episode very soon but I hope you enjoyed ep.05 with Tom/ In this one I cover 3 topics - hence it being quite a long one. I talk about: - The landscape of optimal & how it probably gets in the way of enjoyability and consistency - Progressions & Regressions from a movement perspective & just how big movement variability really is - The Nature vs Nurture debate and how many influences we aren't even aware of Quite big juicy topics that each could've warranted their own episode but I'm generous so I'm giving you three in one podcast - no doubt I'll be revisiting these topics individually at some point too. As I mentioned I'd love to hear from you. Let me know your thoughts, opinions. If you think I'm right, if you think I'm wrong, if you think I'm a massive bellend (just tell me nicely).

In this episode I sit down with a good friend & mentor of mine, Tom Sparks. Tom has helped me massively in my time in the industry by being a resource to bounce ideas off of, provide learning materials & recommended reading. In this episode we discuss the importance of communication for client/patient success, the rise of 'bulletproofing' in the health & fitness industry & if we can truly prevent injuries.

Ep.04 asks the question: Is exercise really necessary? I also dive into the impact of exercise from a quality perspective on your day & what is muscle soreness and should it be a prerequisite of progress? Let me know your thoughts on this exercise and any podcast topic suggestions in my instagram DMs. Instagram Profile - https://www.instagram.com/joshtillscoaching/

In this episode I discuss the concept of Allostatic load & all the areas of your life this might manifest itself into. The compounding effects of chronic stress & strategies to help.

In this episode I challenge myself to create a list of 5 exercises I could only do for the rest of my life to get the best results. An interesting thought experiment that forces you to think of what you want to work and want the impact of training in such a way. Had a lot of fun with this. Would love to know what you think of this list and if you change anything about it & why. Would also be interested in doing other versions of these but for different goal types - bodybuilding, running, etc. I mentioned the colleague who was raising money for charity by attempting to break the world record for most amount of burpees completed in 24 hours - heres his instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/stpweightlossfitness/ If you're not following me already, here's the link to my instagram page where I release daily health & fitness content: https://www.instagram.com/joshtillscoaching/
