Here's one from our archives; we'll be back with new episodes next week! Today I'm talking to trainer, writer, and podcast Tom MacCormick. A writer for sites like Breaking Muscle and BarBend — but hey, I'm biased — Tom is a veteran of the strength and conditioning industry. But one thing he's best known for online is helping people harness the power of mini cuts — targeted, specific periods of concentrated fat loss — that Tom says can actually help long-term muscle-building and strength goals. Tom joins us to explain how mini-cuts can be adapted to almost any training environment, along with tips on how to balance nutritional parameters with in-gym progress.

For this week's Strength Chat it was a pleasure to be joined by strength and conditioning coach and writer, having worked with Elitefts, Breaking Muscle, and Kabuki Strength, Daniel DeBrocke. There can be a lot of variables that can influence someone's progress. However, these variables are just challenges or obstacles that can be overcome with the right support and environment rather than allowing them to derail progress. In this episode, we chatted about taking ownership of your own progress, how environment can influence progress, as well as mental health.   You can follow Daniel via the following links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/daniel_debrocke/?hl=en    YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@danieldebrocke2865/featured    You can follow myself, Coach Cuthbert, via the following links: Website: https://www.coachcuthberttrainingsystems.co.uk/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coach_cuthbert/?hl=en  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/coachcuthbert/

Welcome back to another episode! Today, Mak and Ashley sit down and talk about the nature of communication within areas of various sports. They focus on weightlifting, swimming, and running as they have experience in these sports and they tend to emphasize an “ideal body” of individuals, directly or indirectly. Through Ashley's experience of being an elite athlete, who competed in the Olympic swimming trials, to then taking on CrossFit and Mak's experience of running a marathon, they offer a unique perspective that will provide beneficial information. All of the resources used in the podcast are cited below for reference.   Thank you for listening and make sure to comment, review, and subscribe to this podcast!

Have you ever wondered why tall athletes can move so fluidly on the basketball court or in a rowing boat but sometimes struggle to squat or deadlift? As a well-muscled, tall sprinter and long jumper in high school, Lee Boyce quickly realized that he didn't look or move like most of his fellow track and field athletes. He was curious about why height, weight, limb length, and other factors impacted athletic performance and how he could apply this to his own training. This thirst for knowledge led Lee to take exercise science classes, where he mastered \the basics of how the human body moves and realized he wanted to pass along what he discovered to others through coaching.While he was studying kinesiology in college and competing in track, he started training at a gym and helping others put the lessons he was learning into action. 16 years later, Lee has trained hundreds of people, written over 1,200 articles for the likes of Men's Health, Onnit, and Breaking Muscle, taught multiple college classes, and co-authored the book Strength Training for All Body Types with Melody Schoenfeld. His #tallguytuesday posts have become a go-to resource for basketball players and coaches at all levels.In this episode, Lee shares:·       Which squat and core training exercise variations basketball players and other tall athletes benefit from·       What his severe knee injury taught him about training for durability·       How an athlete's height, weight, lever length, training age, and real age should guide their training program·       What the top 3 motivations are for recreational athletes and how a coach can harness these·       Why there should be principles but not rules in coachingLearn more from Lee by reading his book Strength Training for All Body Types, visiting his website leeboyce.com, and checking out his daily posts on Twitter and Instagram @coachleeboyce.

Even though as his work as online fitness coach has enabled me to help thousand of men around the world, have his work featured in many of the top online media outlets, receive millions of views with his YouTube videos, and have the opportunity to work with many of the industry leaders in the bodybuilding community, Frank still felt like something was missing, that was a greater calling on his life. He was introduced to pornography at very young and unequipped age. Sometimes around the age of 6-7 was his first exposure to what at the time was a "hustler type" of magazine.

He's also one of the world's best-known writers on bodybuilding, and he'll be covering the Olympia Weekend live and in person this year (as he did last year as well). Roger joins the podcast to talk about building an unlikely career — even from his home in rural West Virginia — as well as how to talk about bodybuilding. Is it a sport? Is it a pageant? Or is it something else entirely?Before we get into that, I want to give a quick shoutout to today's episode sponsor, Thirdzy.

Today I'm talking to trainer, writer, and podcast Tom MacCormick. A writer for sites like Breaking Muscle and BarBend — but hey, I'm biased — Tom is a veteran of the strength and conditioning industry. But one thing he's best known for online is helping people harness the power of mini cuts — targeted, specific periods of concentrated fat loss — that Tom says can actually help long-term muscle-building and strength goals. Tom joins us to explain how mini-cuts can be adapted to almost any training environment, along with tips on how to balance nutritional parameters with in-gym progress.Organifi is a line of organic superfood blends that offers plant-based nutrition made with high-quality ingredients.

Having the right values aligned with your business will help you attract more valuable customers. Levent is joined by author, business coach, and founder of Realign Global, Chet Morjaria. Together they discuss your human values, how to craft your business mission around them and why it's essential to communicate them with your customers.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Businesses don't have values, people do. The values of yourself and your co-founders should form the identity of your business values. Firstly you must understand your own values as a human, secondly your business must be crafted around what you believe in and finally once your business and values are aligned you can look to market them and communicate with your target audience. If company values are to be embraced by the whole company, by customers and by external stakeholders they must be articulated well and easy to understand, integrated into the day to day behaviour of employees and represented by the leadership. Only then will the values be infused into the company framework. Values can be used to attract valuable customers. To do this you must understand the meaning and market to recognise your mission and methodology. Then and only then can you get the business model right and correctly market to your audience. It all starts understanding the process on a human level. You must choose who you allow yourself to work with. The clients you choose to work with are fundamental to the way in which your business goes and you must only serve those that are aligned to your values and who most need your service. BEST MOMENTS “We act in accordance with our values, weather we know it or not.” “The values of a company should not be misinterpreted”  “The value you statement of your business must come from the truth of your personal values” “Values should be articulated and embraced by the whole company” “Value the human, respect the role” “We choose who we should work with” VALUABLE RESOURCES Work Worth Doing - https://abookworthreading.club/get-it CONTACT METHOD Linkedin:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/leventyildizgoren/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/yildizgoren IG: https://www.instagram.com/leventyildizgoren/ ABOUT THE HOST Levent Yildizgoren, author of 'Good Business in any Language', is an award winning entrepreneur, localisation professional and a PRINCE2 qualified project manager.  ABOUT THE GUEST Chet Morjaria is a business and communications coach, and founder of Realign Global.

It's common knowledge that we lose muscle mass and strength as we age. This is known as sarcopenia. As someone approaching their 40th birthday, I'm interested to know what the research shows about this syndrome. So, I dug into the research to see what, if anything, could be done to reverse or at least slow down the physical decline we go through as we age. What I discovered was fascinating, and I share all of it in this episode. I'll explain: Why do we lose muscle and strength as we age? That this rate of decay in physical capacity is not inevitable. How you can keep gaining strength and muscle mass up to your 60s. There is a large amount of research on this subject, and it was eye-opening to dive deep and learn that we are all largely in control of how much muscle and strength we have as we age.  If you have any questions or comments about the show, please email me at tom@breakingmuscle.com or drop me a DM on Instagram @tommaccormick.

In this episode, I'm delighted to join Tony Gentilcore to discuss how he charted his path within the fitness industry and has built a thriving business using coaching, writing, and educating. Tony was one of the co-founders of Cressey Sports Performance (CSP). Since leaving CSP in 2016, he has been training people at his own studio, CORE, located in Boston, MA.  During our conversation, Tony explained: Owning your own gym is not the gold standard for success in the fitness industry. There are other career paths you can follow to have a fulfilling and financially rewarding fitness career. How he developed his education workshops and has taken them online during the pandemic. He suffers from imposter syndrome occasionally despite having presented worldwide, training countless elite athletes, and being featured in numerous publications. And why he rarely gives a single workshop I had a ton of fun on this interview and have no doubt you'll find tremendous value in Tony's insight and experience.

I want to be honest with you: I always thought that exercise was punishment. And I don't think I'm alone (I still fight with myself to get my workouts done).

In this episode, I explain exactly how I think you should eat to build the most muscle possible. Most people train their asses off but build very little muscle. This result is because they are fighting only half the battle. While they focus all their energy on the training front, they get blindsided by the diet. I made this mistake myself, and my results improved dramatically when I fixed it. I’ll share how you can do the same and start to see far better results in this episode. I outline how quickly you can build muscle, determine the number of calories you need to gain lean muscle, and pinpoint the two nutritional factors that deliver 80% of your results. I also identify the hierarchy of needs when it comes to nutrition for muscle gain, and I take you step-by-step through each of these in order of importance: Total calories Macronutrients Nutrient timing Micronutrients Food composition Supplements Nutritional periodization By the end of this episode, you will have all the information you need to plan out your muscle-building diet plan. These are the exact nutritional principles I use in my diet and those of my clients.

Get comfortable with your own mortality.While many people seem to act as if they will live forever, this is simply not the way things work. No one in history has ever escaped the ultimate exit plan - death. Along with birth, it is the defining characteristic of human life which unites all people regardless of class, religion, or nationality.Despite it's certainty, however, few people contemplate the reality of death because it's too grim. But what if something as certain and universal as mortality could be harnessed as a tool to build your strength and resolve? What if reflecting on your imminent death allowed you to fully engage in life? These questions are at the core of today's episode; how to use Momento Mori and reflection on your own mortality to eliminate excuses and clarify your actions. When you accept that the next breath could be your last, suddenly it becomes easier to quit those bad habits that aren't serving you, and double down on what you know to be your true calling!A few resources that are mentioned throughout this episode:1. Mike wrote an article on the topic of Momento Mori for Breaking Muscle - you can read it here: http://breakingmuscle.com/fitness/memento-mori-a-simple-practice-for-a-complex-time2.

I've had a crazy month. I spent weeks being insanely busy and then a week being really sick. This is the first time in a while that my schedule and health have been somewhat normal. And I've been fighting the "shoulds" all week. Why am I so tired? I should be bouncing back faster. I missed a few weeks of studio work, I should be painting more. My house is a disaster, I should be cleaning. It's been a year since I put tile up around the kitchen backsplash, I should be grouting it this week since it's Spring Break. For that matter, I should clean out the garden, work on my son's quilt, tackle the pile of alterations in my sewing room and clean out the storm room so we can actually get in there this storm season. And I just can't. I've fallen asleep at 8:00 pm several nights this week. I've shoveled stuff behind my son's closed bedroom door to deal with later. I did do one painting. I binge watched some broadcasts on essential oils the one night I didn't fall asleep right after dinner. But, mostly I've done a lot of nothing I didn't absolutely have to do. I skipped meetings. I canceled appointments. We didn't do anything remotely "stay-cation-ish" for Spring Break. I just couldn't find the energy or ambition. I suspect I was further away from health than I thought I was. Not just sicker than I thought, though that's probably true too, but soul-drained. There's been a lot of energy emptied and not a lot replaced. Rest and Recovery We want recovery to happen quickly and efficiently. But, recovery happens on its own schedule. I had a fever of 100 to 102 degrees for 6 or 7 days. When it finally broke I had another day or so of still feeling sick. Then comes the in-between phase. That period of time when your body is better enough that your mind is free to remember all the stuff that didn't get done while you were sick, but your body's not quite ready to do all the things yet. And it's so easy to jump right back into life before being fully recovered. This time, recovery seems to be taking longer than usual. I'm tiring out quickly, I'm still sleeping a lot and I'm sluggish. Part of the problem might be that it's allergy season, so I'm not sure I'll get back to feeling great for a few months. But, it is what it is. If my body needs more rest, it simply needs more rest. Applying "should" to it...as in I "should" be feeling 100% by now is pretty useless. I need to listen to my body and let it recover. I'm much better at this than I used to be. Years ago, I'd probably have been back training this week. I did get back to the gym this week. Once. And then stayed home and walked the next few days. Took more days off than usual and didn't worry about it all that much. What I'm not as good at is allowing time for mental and emotional recovery. Things have been pretty intense around here for a long time. And I think I just hit my limit. Sometimes your head and heart need recovery time too. If that means reading a trash novel. Go for it. If it means doing something you love, do that. For me this week, I haven't had the capacity to even want to do things that I love. Hiking was too energetic. Quilting was too. Reading required too much thought. Visiting local places I love like Cheekwood, museums or art galleries sounded more exhausting than fun. Things that usually fill my emotional bank were just too much. I spent some time on social media, but that only served to make me feel worse about the things I wasn't doing, so I shut that off. All that makes me realize that I was more depleted than I thought I was. If you find yourself in a place like I am, where you need rest and recovery...listen to your body, heart and mind and take that time. Take it without self judgment. Ignore the "shoulds" that crop up and focus on body and soul repair. We need both rest and recovery. In the training world. rest and recovery are two different things. Rest is sleep and not training. If we're not talking about training, but about life, rest is sleep and not doing the things causing the need for rest. So, it's sleep and Not Doing. It's sleep and being. We need need need this in our lives and I've been doing a lot of that this week. In my head, I think I've been feeling guilty about it. This is where the "shoulds" have cropped up. But, either I've been too tired for that to effect my emotions, or I've been to emotionally smart. Let's go with smart. While it might be bugging me on one level, I didn't get anxious about it, didn't worry about it and knew that it was the right thing to do. I wish I had been able to articulate this earlier in the week, I would have been more intentional about the "being" part of that "sleep and be" definition. What would that look like? Focusing on the present moment. Meditation. Noticing the sun on my skin. Paying attention to sensory details. Not spending mental energy on the past or future. Allowing Being to be the focus of my attention and a worthwhile pursuit in and of itself. And then there's recovery. Breakingmuscle.com says recovery, "refers to techniques and actions taken to maximize your body's repair. These include hydration, nutrition, posture, heat, ice, stretching...stress management, compression, and time spent standing versus sitting versus lying down. Recovery is multifaceted and encompasses more than just muscle repair. Recovery involves chemical and hormonal balance, nervous system repair, mental state, and more." Recovery is doing the things for yourself that help you repair. If we're talking about life, some of these apply, like hydration, nutrition and stress management. But other self-care activities, things that fill your tank emotionally, spiritually and mentally, are a big part of recovery. These are different for everyone. For introverts, it might mean alone time. For extroverts, it might mean people time. Figure out what it means for you. Do those things in seasons of recovery, but also work them into your weekly routines to refill your tanks as you go along. Episode Artwork The art this week is about how I feel at the moment. Most of the colors are muted. I can still be functional, still red, green, yellow or blue...but not at my best and brightest. The longer I live in that state of depletion, the more the colors fade. The closer they get to muddy gray and black. But, there's a kernel of color. Rest and recovery will bring back vibrancy. And it often begins where the black is the strongest. Where are you in this season? Do you need rest and recovery? Are you good at it? I'm going to practice this week and see if I can get the vibrant colors to take over the rest of the canvas. I'll let you know how it goes! Episode Downloads Want to explore this topic further? Get the Coffee Talk Worksheet and iPhone lock screen.
