12/3/2025 - The main purpose of this podcast was to get everyone locked in for the completion of 2025 and into the New Year!! There are numerous ways to handle the holidays and many people tell themselves that they will "start strong" at the beginning of the New Year. We don't believe in that mindset, and we honestly worry and are concerned for those who feel like they will be able to get right b ack into the swing of things "easily". Health and Fitness is something that should be maintained, and there was some tough talk today, but I hope you find it motivating.

8/27/2025 After a week away (Because somebody forgot the memory chip at home(me) we are back in action and we have three main topics that we covered.

Second, we talked about how to handle having bad days at the gym and why it's okay for it to happen. Third, we go over why standards are so important to our gym culture and why we think that it has been so refreshing lately with our athletes buying in to why standards are so important.
