Activated Performance Radio

Mind muscle connection is neat. Proximal stability is for dorks.

Rambling, ranting, and some valuable training info.

Greatness doesn't happen in one day. Tendinitis doesn't mean you're broken. Do you wear a buttplug, or do you use a buttplug?

We're actually back, and we have none other than Gator C, Seth's brother, bodybuilder, and Canadian rap phenomenon as our first guest of Season 2. Cole will be back again to feature as a co-host.

Since we have been inconsistent with podcasting, we figured we would talk about all things consistency on this episode.

Today we sat down with Seth's old training partner and our good friend, Ryan Selk. He shares insight on longevity in the sport and shares some stories of the old days.

We sat down with our good friend and training partner Daniel Bell to talk about his venture into multiply powerlifting, how he finds balance, his mental approach and much more.

We had the Palmer Powerlifting Crew (Joao Lazarin and Dylan George) in, as well as the return of Dr. Jesse Hodges. This episode basically turned into a series of rants on what can be done better in the rehab and performance world.

We haven't had the best sleep habits since the corona virus shutdowns began. We go over some stuff that we ourselves are going to start doing better, as well as share some sleep hygine tips that should help you guys out.

Lily Starobin is an Elitefts sponsored multi ply lifter who we have had the pleasure of getting to watch progress over the years. She's taken herself from not being able to squat 200, to being able to reliably nail 500+ in meets. Lily trains at the EliteFTS Compound, and not only has gotten to train along side Dave Tate, but has been coached by the man as well. Having a mentor like Dave helped speed up the learning curve, so listen in as Lily passes on that knowledge.

Q&A Topics Include: Box Squats- To wrap or not What have we learned from Dan Bell Who has the bigger wilks? Does Wilks matter? What do our diets look like? What has been the biggest takeaway from chiropractic school? Is there value to beltless training?

Brian Hill is one of the top multi ply lifters in powerlifting right now, and has become one of our mentors in the sport. Multi ply or raw, you will be able to learn something from Brian's approach.

Have you ever wondered what it is like to compete as a professional strongman, and run a marathon the next day? Or To overcome what would be a career ending injury to most? To break a 24hr endurance world record? Yeah, we haven’t wondered about those things either, but it was super cool to hear from someone who has done them all. For Episode 3 of Activated Performance Radio we had our friend Andrew Clayton on the Show. He is the running strongman, an all around great guy, and this made for our funniest episode yet. As always, you can find us @activated.performance and our apparel and services at activatedperformance.net

We had Dr Jesse Hodges on, with a guest appearance from Joshua Pollard on for this one. Dr Hodges is one of my professors at Palmer College of Chiropractic, and Josh is one of my classmates. Dr Hodges has a very new school approach to the treatment and management of injuries that places biomechanics at the forefront of the equation. He has helped Meana and I so much with figuring out our own issues, and we are always impressed with how simple his solutions are. Enjoy this one guys.

For our first show we have none other than our friend and training partner the Daniel Tinajero. Danny is an acomplished raw, single, and multi ply powerlifter. He is a electrical engineer, and coaches many successful athletes. He has been in the sport for 16 years, and holds experience well beyond his years. You can find him on Instagram @thedanieltinajero
