Bobsledding is one of the most expensive and physically demanding winter sports and was the most watched competition in the last Winter Olympics. I talk to her about her mindset, secrets to success and more in this incredible interview.Our government is one of the few that does NOT pay Olympians and bobsledding is the most expensive of the Winter Olympic Sports.

In S4Ep17 of the PRP, Adam breaks bread with decorated track & field athlete turned marathoner, established running & strength coach, savvy tech entrepreneur and local community steward extraordinaire Asia Rawls, who has been preparing for the Chicago Marathon on Sunday October 13th, 2024. Ben Kendell, professional marathoner, perpetual student of punctuality and one of Bambi's machines joins the show to offer his take on all things Detroit Mercy, strength training and of course pre race duecin.  The conversation starts out hot and heavy as Coach Bam & Ben reflect on what running has come to mean to each of them over the years. For Ben, as someone participating in the sport full time and at an elite level, he's had to learn how to manifest, perform and digress - a practice that he admits is life long and most of the time, isn't easy. For Asia, her involvement in the world of running is much more about sharing the gifts the sport has brought her with her community in order to enhance the lives of those around her. Ain't no gatekeeping going on with the People's Coach! What she has gained from running has changed her life in major ways, and it's now become her pursuit to bestow the same benefits to the people of Detroit. Things get vulnerable when Asia shares some invaluable insight on the duty and responsibility she has found herself embodying being one of few. From running world major marathons to stepping into corporate conference rooms, oftentimes she is the only black woman. Although some may be intimidated by such an undertaking, Coach Bam offers a refreshing perspective on what it means to be that representation of a mission and a message. Change and progress occur one step at a time and applying the machine mentality to all aspects of life will allow you to overcome any obstacle society can throw your way. What exactly does it mean to check in with yourself before checking in with training? S/O to Now & Laters! Quad duecin?!  Finish line pukin?! Sound mind? Sound body? Beethoven, Big Bam and Bobsledding oh my! This is so much more in this uplifting, outstanding and wildly inspiring episode of the PRP!

As we sat down with Megan Henry, a professional athlete and high performance coach, an enriching dialogue unfolded. A world-class skeleton athlete, Megan has a unique and compelling story to share, painting a vivid picture of the adrenaline-filled world of skeleton racing and bobsledding. From the importance of weight and aerodynamics in skeleton racing to the intense mental and physical training required, Megan offers an insider's perspective on this exhilarating sport. Her journey from a novice to a national champion in just a year, followed by a significant health scare, is a testament to her resilience and determination. Navigating our way through Megan's experience, we delve deeper into the masculinity discourse, contemplating ways to reshape societal mindsets. Megan shares her insights on empowering young women in sports and the challenges faced in male-dominated spaces, but it's her story of personal transformation that resonates the most. Changing her beliefs and self-talk not only aided her in her athletic career, but it also had profound implications on her life off the track. She inspires us with her approach to coaching women, emphasizing the power of self-belief and an abundant mindset. In a profound conversation about group dynamics and emotional intelligence, Megan underlines the importance of fostering a healthy team environment. Drawing from her own experiences, she shares practical tips on confidence building and effective communication in sports and beyond. As we wrap up, Megan encourages us to harness the power of our thoughts and beliefs, underlining the significance of focusing on what we want and pushing beyond perceived limits.

Today we reminisce about the Challengemania Hall of Fame and Sarah's induction speech. We hear about the Harley & Katya documentary which chronicled a competitive figure skating duo and the untimely demise of the female skater. We discuss how concussions and injuries from the ice, the difficulties of competing, and the pressure on young athletes contribute to mental health concerns for the skaters. Susie thinks there's still time for Sarah to become a competitive bobsledder, but Sarah isn't so sure. We hear about the man who created the famous and calamitous "disco sucks" event at the professional baseball game in 1979, why the organizer regrets it, and how the people who stormed the field might have something in common with the January 6 insurrectionists. We discuss a study that shows why sleeping with your partner's clothing could help you sleep better even if you're not aware it's theirs. Susie describes what it's like to work a suicide hotline, why a lot of people call who are looking for love, friendship, or romance, how the operators assess risk, and why it's a thankless job. We laugh about Sarah's inability to "wind down" on a phone call and how she realized she has a very annoying habit in social settings. And our minds are blown when we learn the difference between chicken strips and chicken tenders. Who knew?

Koloa Wolfgramm was diagnosed with cancer at a young age which caused him to withstand multiple surgeries on his leg and go through many trials as a young child. While he overcame his bone cancer (which came at the age of 4), he still had many complications with his leg which ultimately led to him amputating that leg at the age of 13.  What came next however, is an inspiring story of NEVER letting it get the best of him. Today on the show, Koloa and I will discuss the adversity he faced growing up and how he was able to prepare his mind for everything he faced. He never allowed himself to look at himself as "disabled" or any sort of way other than "just like everyone else." This attitude catapulted him throughout the rest of his life!  You'll hear about how losing the leg actually allowed him to be free! Because from there he was able to improve. He was then able to compete in basketball (the sport he loved) where he played for Amp-1 and traveled to many places while competing at a very high level. Koloa was able to DUNK a basketball with ONE LEG! He also joined the Bobsled Team and competed at the highest level as well! We'll break that entire journey down as well.  Then you'll get to hear about how Koloa happened to be the first Polynesian graduate at Yale!! What an amazing accomplishment!  This is a story of inspiration! One you do NOT want to miss out on as you'll be filled with a spirit of gratitude and perspective! It's an episode that if you save to your device, you can go back on at different points and gain pointers from Koloa and implement them into your life to help you get through different points! It's an interview where you'll hear about dedication, perseverance, FAITH in his Lord and Savior, and consistent hard work!  I hope you all enjoy this conversation with Koloa Wolfgramm!  __________________ If you want to get healthy and enjoy a solid tasting protein bar (that doesn't taste like "astronaut food" (as my mother would say) then you need to get on with BUILT!

They tell a funny story about how one of them was asked to replace the other on a previous team and they are still "Ride or Die" friends. This team is all about the fun, but make now mistakes they are going to the Games to shake things up.

Probably not a good idea.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A fun conversation about Winter Olympic Sports with John Macchione, a co-worker at my day job, and Mallory Tse as we discuss how they have competed in Bobsledding and have also taken up Curling. It's a fascinating discussion on how these sports work and what it takes to participate

It's a first for the Beer Hour this week as we're joined by our first Olympians! Mast Landing Brewing Co.'s Parker Olen and Weston Shepherd start the show with their story of opening up a brewery in Maine, eventually winning World Beer Cup gold medals and making Maine fashion statements.Then Team USA Bobsledders Josh Williamson and Carlo Valdes tell us what it's like to compete at the highest level, and the unbelievable training regimen it takes to be in shape for the Olympics. Beer is part of the diet!

What do you get when you cross a bobsled, boxing gloves and a bouquet of flowers? Isabella Rositano, that's what! This girl is a weapon of a human and my latest adopted podcasting bestie.  You've likely seen her on SAS Australia, perhaps you even recall her launching across the Ninja Warrior course. Less likely however, you may recall Isabella rocketing down a bobsleigh course (hardly a common Australian pastime) or even competing as a champion canoe-er (what do you even call a person who canoes). These days I'm more than thrilled to talk about Isabella's latest sporting love which is boxing, so it's fair to say we are basically soul sisters now. She sure is someone who's setting the tone for women in sport... I'm more than a little bit inspired myself after this chat.

Tweetable Quotes: “And so the story about [Steven Holcomb's] eyes, his vision, and his bounce back from basically legal blindness was already becoming a big news story. So, we did a press conference and I brought up my little portable eye testing equipment, I checked his eyes and I gave him the thumbs up and cleared him to compete in the Olympics. And then he won the Gold Medal with his three other teammates, Curt Tomasevicz, Steve Mesler and Justin Olsen.” (08:29) (Dr. Brian) “When Steven won that Gold Medal, he would say that I saved him, but in a way he also saved me because he solidified the validity of the procedure. Essentially there was an Olympic Gold Medal behind the C3R Procedure at the time.” (10:00) (Dr. Brian) “At the time, there were these Chechen terrorists that were bombing train stations in Russia. And The U.S. State Department had put out this notice saying all Americans should cancel going to the Sochi Olympics. So, because Steven was going and I knew his family wasn't going, I had this very strong gut feeling that I needed to go to support Steven. I called a buddy of mine who had high-level connections and asked what do you think? He said, ‘Brian, Putin is going to make sure that the Olympic Games are safer than driving down the freeway.'” (11:10) (Dr. Brian) “That was one of the reasons that I wanted to help these filmmakers with this documentary because it's paying tribute to Steven's legacy. He remained so incredibly humble even after everything he had accomplished. His teammates talk about that in the film too. Always down to Earth, always just being so helpful. He was just such an incredible, inspirational person.” (15:16) (Dr. Brian) Links Mentioned: Link to the film Holky: The Steven Holcomb Story on Indieflix (a film in which Dr. Brian was one of the producers) - https://watch.indieflix.com/movie/z1jvXp2ah0MZ-holky-the-steven-holcomb-story (https://watch.indieflix.com/movie/z1jvXp2ah0MZ-holky-the-steven-holcomb-story) DM Dr. Brian your questions and we will respond back with answers - https://v.cameo.com/F5MH0Hglnmb (https://v.cameo.com/F5MH0Hglnmb) https://www.boxerwachler.com/ (Dr. Brian's Website)

The episode where the boys once again push the boundaries of what is acceptable to discuss in a public podcast. Yet, they still haven't been #cancelled. Why is that? Michael has yet another run-in with a police officer. David spends far too much time on Urban Dictionary. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ridiculously-bored/support

Devon Harris is not just an Original Jamaican Bobsledder, he is also a uniquely original human being. He comes to us earthlings bearing inspirational gifts like enthusiasm and tenacity spreading them around like Santa Claus. Devon shears his amazing stories and anecdotes of how he escaped an impoverished childhood in Jamaica by using his powers of decision making and belief. This allowed him to shift his perspectives enabling him to dream bigger than his circumstances. Devon is one of those humans who is able to overcome great obstacles by using the simple tools given to him, sunshine and confidence. He grew up in “Olympic Gardens”, one of the roughest ghettos in Kingston, Jamaica. Through hard work and perseverance he was able to transform his life into a real life Olympian minus the gardens. In 1988 Devon Harris was one of the original four Jamaican Bobsledders representing his country in the Winter Olympics in Calgary, Canada. The experience he has gained from rich adventures such as that has propelled Devon into his current career as a motivational speaker. He has now done several TEDTalks and speaks all around the world inspiring thousands with his insights using bobsledding as a metaphor for life. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/rawle-d/message
