In today's episode, I sit down with Christopher “Chip” Paucek, a visionary entrepreneur and co-founder of Pro Athlete Community (PAC). Chip shares how PAC provides a lifelong locker room for professional athletes, offering mentorship, coaching, and education that help them thrive well beyond their playing careers. We explore the unique challenges athletes face when the lights go out—judgment, isolation, and the struggle to find new purpose—and how PAC helps them channel the same grit and determination that carried them to the top of their sport into building fulfilling futures. Chip's journey also reflects his own drive to keep learning, building, and giving back.

Heat stress affects four out of five Americans with many unaware they're experiencing it, and over a quarter don't know how to react in an emergency situation. Lexi Engelbart from Ergodyne joins us to discuss Project Heat, an educational initiative aimed at helping people recognize and respond to heat-related illnesses before they become life-threatening.• Heat stress is highly personal – medications, hydration, alcohol consumption, and fitness level all affect how individuals respond• Signs of heat-related illness progress from heat rash to heat cramps to heat exhaustion to heat stroke, with cognitive decline being a serious warning sign• The "taco method" (Tarp Assisted Cooling Oscillation) can save lives in remote locations by creating a makeshift ice bath• Acclimatization is crucial – gradually expose yourself to heat over 1-2 weeks rather than jumping straight into hot conditions• Cooling products range from evaporative cooling vests and sleeves to phase change technology designed for different environments• Proper cooling not only prevents heat illness but also improves performance by allowing better nutrient absorption• The time-tested formula for heat stress prevention remains "water, rest, and shade"• Looking out for signs of heat stress in friends, family members, and teammates can prevent serious medical emergenciesLearn more about heat stress prevention and products at Ergodyne.com/heat-stress.Here's the products we discussed in the episode that Lexi recommended: Arm SleevesCooling Towel (their most popular item)Dry Condition VestPVA Cooling Wet Vesthttps://www.ergodyne.com/heat-stress Support the show

The Korey Stringer Institute, at the University of Connecticut, is named after an N.F.L. player who died of exertional heatstroke. The lab's main research subjects have been athletes, members of the military, and laborers. But, with the extreme heat wrought by climate change, even mild exertion will put more and more of us in harm's way; in many parts of the United States, a combined heat wave and power outage could cause staggering fatalities. Dhruv Khullar, a New Yorker contributor, practicing physician, and professor of health policy, visited the Stringer Institute to undergo a heat test—walking uphill, for ninety minutes, in a hundred-and-four-degree heat—to better understand what's happening. “I just feel extremely puffy everywhere,” Khullar sighed. “You'd have to cut my finger off just to get my wedding ring off.” By the end of the test, he spoke of experiencing cramps, dizziness, and a headache. Khullar discussed the dangers of heatstroke with Douglas Casa, the lab's head, who nearly died of the condition as a young athlete. “Climate change has taken this into the everyday world for the everyday American citizen. You don't have to be a laborer working for twelve hours; you don't have to be a soldier in training,” Casa tells him. “This is making it affect so many people, even just during daily living.” Although the treatment for heat-related illness is straightforward, Casa says that implementation of simple preventive measures remains challenging—and that there is much we need to do to better prepare for the global rise in temperatures. This segment originally aired on August 25, 2023.

Today's guest is Boo Schexnayder. Irving “Boo” Schexnayder is a world-class coach and consultant with over 44 years of experience in track and field. Renowned for producing 26 NCAA Champions and 8 Olympic/World Championship medalists, he co-founded Schexnayder Athletic Consulting and founded the Track and Field Academy. A former LSU coach and USA Track and Field leader, Boo's expertise in biomechanics and training design extends to multiple sports, making him a sought-after mentor worldwide. It's common to think that, as time moves forward in any discipline, that discipline becomes better. What seems to define much of athletic performance and sport itself is that outputs become the priority while movement quality and literacy become watered down. On today's podcast, Boo gives wisdom into the process of comprehensive athletic development by leaning into general strength and movement training. He goes over his movement batteries, scramble circuits, training diversity, and tempo sprints. Boo also gives his take on the use of supramaximal eccentrics, covers hamstring injury prevention strategies, and discusses his sprint-float-sprint protocols, alongside a sea of further training wisdom.

What to try: Keep general strength simple—circuits that are easy to teach, scalable, and repeatable. Don't let weight room complexity replace basic movement skill. Revisit older methods (hurdle mobility, med ball throws) that build coordination without heavy stress. 28:47 – Adding multi-directional work for linear athletes Even linear sprinters benefit from “scramble” circuits and agility-oriented elements. Boo stresses that multi-directional tasks improve coordination, robustness, and adaptability. What to try: Sprinkle in agility, shuffles, and lateral bounds for athletes who train mostly linear. Build circuits that force athletes to problem-solve movement, not just run straight lines. Think “movement quality first”—variety pays off long term. 37:18 – Managing tempo volume for higher intensity Boo highlights that loading too much tempo work flattens intensity. Athletes need tempo in the right amount—enough for conditioning, not so much that it dulls speed. What to try: Keep tempo volumes moderate so athletes can still sprint fast on quality days. Use tempo as restoration or rhythm training, not just mileage. Remember: more work doesn't equal better adaptation—protect intensity. 47:24 – Short sprints on low days to cap tissue load Boo explains that short 10m sprints can safely live on “low” days—they maintain speed exposure without frying the system. What to try: Program 2–3 sets of short accelerations on low CNS days.

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! This week, we're revisiting one of the most insightful interviews we've done here on the Purple Patch Podcast. In this episode, we're exploring the topic of mature athletes. These athletes are just as ambitious and goal-driven as younger ones, but they often have a deeper and more meaningful purpose beyond winning races and setting personal records. We received a great question from a podcast listener who has participated in triathlons for over 20 years. Despite still being ambitious, she now has three kids and is seeking advice on approaching the sport from a new perspective and adjusting her training. This is a common challenge for many athletes, not just in triathlon. We've dedicated a whole show to addressing this question and hopefully, we provide helpful guidance for any mature athlete looking to optimize their mindset, strategy, and training for performance gains. The episode is divided into three parts. The first part discusses "perspective" and building a new relationship with sports. It provides context for understanding how to adjust your approach to sports and how it may differ from your younger and more competitive years.

Ever wonder if all those interrupted workouts and chaotic fitness sessions while raising little ones will ever pay off? In this deeply personal episode, I share a breakthrough moment that brought tears to my eyes and validated years of persevering through the challenges of maintaining fitness as a mother.My six-year-old daughter recently joined me for a 5.7-kilometer run (her biking alongside me) after previous unsuccessful attempts. The transformation wasn't just in her physical abilities, but in her mindset - "I believe in you, Mom, and I believe in me too," she said confidently. When we finished, she immediately set her sights higher: "I think I could do 6K next time!" This wasn't about appearance or obligation - it was pure joy in movement.While much conversation around motherhood and fitness focuses on the postpartum period, I reflect on how the challenges evolve as children grow. From protecting nap time workouts to navigating school schedules and activities, the journey shifts continuously. Yet these perfectly imperfect moments reveal the power of consistent role modeling - showing our children that movement is celebration, not punishment; capability, not compensation. Following the long-term athlete development model in our home has created a foundation where fitness becomes a natural, joyful part of family life.For those currently struggling through interrupted sets and modified workouts with little ones at home, take heart. The seeds you're planting now - even on days when nothing feels "enough" - are growing into something beautiful. As The Office reminds us, we're often in "the good old days" without realizing it. This beautiful chaos of dogs, chickens, kids, and careers amid burpees and barbells? It's everything I dreamed motherhood could be.What fitness moments with your children have made your heart swell?

Esports is a multi-billion dollar industry, with players making millions by getting good at video games. But while traditional athletes, usually, retire into coaching, managing or being a pundit, what does an esports player do when they've hung up their controller? The BBC's Will Chalk files this report from the U.K.
