Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Navigating the delicate balance between consistency and recovery is essential for every fitness enthusiast. Have you ever struggled with deciding whether to push through a workout while feeling under the weather? This episode provides clarity on this common dilemma by exploring the science-backed "neck rule" that helps determine when exercise might help versus when it could harm your recovery.We dive into fascinating immune system science, revealing how your body becomes temporarily vulnerable after intense exercise—a phenomenon so significant that elite Soviet Olympic athletes wore masks after training sessions to protect themselves during this window of compromised immunity. You'll learn practical strategies for supporting your immune function during illness, from optimizing sleep to strategic steam room sessions that may help alleviate respiratory symptoms.The episode also addresses the psychological challenge of training interruptions. Rather than viewing illness as a fitness failure, you'll discover how to frame these periods as strategic recovery that ultimately serves your long-term goals. Whether you're a personal trainer guiding clients through illness or an individual navigating your own fitness journey, this episode provides the knowledge to make informed decisions that honor both your health and your athletic ambitions. Share your fitness journey openly—setbacks included—because authentic progress inspires others far more than perfectionism ever could. Remember that temporary pauses don't derail your goals; they're simply part of the path to sustainable progress.Want to ask us a question?

What is culture, and what is our relationship to it as Christians? Dennis Greeson joins the podcast today to talk about his recent book The Way of Christ in Culture: A Vision for All of Life (Lifeway 2024), coauthored with Benjamin T. Quinn. In the book, the authors provide a framework for knowing one's time in God's story, one's place in creation, and following wisdom. He also shares about the Alexandrian Institute, a cohort-based model for theological education focused on engaging Scripture and confessional traditions and the wisdom of previous generations of Christians, and sending students to engage their context. 

Ever catch yourself scrolling and thinking, “Why don't I look like that?”Or looking back at old photos and wondering where that version of you went?You're not alone, and you're not broken.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Dr.justinfarnsworth - IGDr. Justin Farnsworth turns conventional wisdom about Achilles tendon injuries upside down in this eye-opening conversation about prevention, rehabilitation, and performance training. With recent high-profile NBA Achilles injuries making headlines, his practical, evidence-based approach offers a refreshing perspective for trainers and athletes alike."Anyone selling you an injury prevention program is a snake oil salesman," states Dr. Farnsworth, explaining that while we can't prevent injuries entirely, we can implement smart strategies to build resilience. Drawing on his 20 years of coaching experience and 13 years as a board-certified sports physical therapist, he breaks down the biomechanics of Achilles injuries and shares specific techniques for training the tendon properly.The conversation explores why heavy eccentric training (true overload, not just controlled lowering) is crucial for tendon health, and why training the calf in fully lengthened positions might be your best protection against injury. Dr. Farnsworth challenges the outdated RICE protocol, explaining why compression and targeted isometrics often work better than ice, and why complete rest is usually counterproductive for healing.For trainers working with injured clients, there's practical advice on rehabilitation timelines (typically 9-12 months for Achilles ruptures), the powerful benefits of contralateral training for the uninjured side, and how to safely program around pain. Perhaps most valuable is his three-part framework for Achilles health: mobility, strength in lengthened positions, and rate of force development through progressive plyometric training.Whether you're a fitness professional or someone recovering from a tendon injury, this episode delivers actionable strategies to build stronger, more resilient bodies.

UnitedHealth Group (UHG) stock is plummeting following the abrupt resignation of its CEO Andrew Witty. His sudden departure, coming on Tuesday, May 13, came amid multiple lawsuits and threatened actions by private, state, and federal agencies across the country, and amid massive criticism for the company's tendency to deny beneficiaries coverage for services at elevated rates.Witty's exit from the giant payer – a long-time dominant force related to revenue cycle, provider staffing, utilization, and managed and commercial health insurance plans – seems to have rattled many in America's sprawling health delivery system. So, how could these recent events affect other hospitals and health systems?During the next live edition of the popular Talk Ten Tuesdays, the Internet broadcast produced by ICD10monitor, Dr. Juliet Ugarte Hopkins will share what she thinks of what might lie ahead.

Depuis une semaine, plusieurs organisations du Plateau central bloquent la centrale hydroélectrique de Péligre, la principale source d'électricité d'Haïti, pour protester contre l'inaction de l'État face à l'insécurité croissante dans la région. Nous en parlons avec Gotson Pierre, directeur de l'agence Alterpresse. Les villes de Saut d'Eau et de Mirebalais sont particulièrement touchées par les gangs armés. Les manifestants réclament des services publics essentiels, la sécurité, et un traitement équitable en matière de distribution d'électricité, selon le directeur de l'agence Alterpresse. Ce mouvement se présente comme une « prise en main citoyenne face à l'effondrement des institutions publiques » et le sentiment général que l'État a largement abandonné la population. Cette mobilisation plonge la capitale Port-au-Prince dans un black-out depuis le 13 mai 2025. Alterpresse souligne que ce mouvement intervient dans un contexte sécuritaire alarmant. Gotson Pierre revient aussi sur la fête du drapeau, le 18 mai dernier, qui s'est déroulé dans un climat tendu. Face à l'inaction du gouvernement, le discours du coordonnateur du Conseil présidentiel de transition (Cpt), Fritz Alphonse Jean, qui a appelé les Haïtiens à l'unité et à la résilience, a été vivement critiqué, selon le directeur d'Alterpresse.Omerta sur l'acuité mentale de Joe Biden ?  – les révélations explosives du livre enquête « Original Sin » Ce mardi, sort aux États-Unis le livre évènement « Original Sin », « Péché originel ». Il raconte comment l'entourage de l'ancien président démocrate l'a isolé des mauvaises nouvelles et a dissimulé la dégradation flagrante de son état physique et cognitif. Selon les auteurs, Alex Thompson, d'Axios, et Jake Tapper, de CNN, la Maison Blanche de Joe Biden « a trompé le peuple américain ». L'obstination de Joe Biden et de ses proches a directement conduit à la défaite démocrate face à Donald Trump, malgré la campagne éclair de Kamala Harris, soulignent les deux journalistes. Nous en parlons avec le spécialiste des États-Unis, Romuald Sciora, chercheur associé à l'IRIS. À lire aussiSanté mentale de Biden: «Plus qu'un mensonge d'État, un crime contre la démocratie américaine»« Trump se fait mener en bateau par Poutine » La presse nord-américaine commente abondamment la conversation téléphonique entre Donald Trump et Vladimir Poutine, et se montre très critique de l'attitude du président américain, Achim Lippold.« Donald Trump n'est pas connu pour sa patience ni pour sa clémence envers ceux qui défient sa volonté », écrit le Washington Post. Ces derniers jours, il s'en est pris tour à tour à la procureure générale de New York, à Bruce Springsteen, à Beyoncé et à l'ancien directeur du FBI James B. Comey — tous visiblement coupables, à ses yeux, de l'avoir contrarié d'une manière ou d'une autre. Mais, poursuit le journal, « lorsqu'il s'agit du dictateur russe Vladimir Poutine — qui continue de saboter les efforts de Donald Trump pour mettre fin à la guerre en Ukraine —, le président américain fait preuve d'une patience, d'une bienveillance et d'une compréhension sans fin. En coulisses, Donald Trump se plaint que mettre fin à une guerre est plus difficile qu'il ne le pensait. « Sans blague », commente le Washington Post et suggère au chef de la Maison Blanche de traiter Vladimir Poutine comme il traite tous ceux qui lui tiennent tête. Mais pour l'instant, conclut le Washington Post, c'est Vladimir Poutine qui mène Donald Trump en bateau, et le président américain ne semble pas s'en rendre compte.Trump pourrait se désengager de la guerre en Ukraine car de son point de vue, c'est une affaire purement européenne. Selon cette idée, que l'aide américaine serait donc un geste charitable, plutôt qu'un impératif stratégique. Or, The New York Times avertit que cette vision est dangereusement simpliste. Selon le quotidien, Vladimir Poutine ne se limite pas à l'Ukraine : il cherche à remettre en cause l'ordre européen d'après-Guerre froide et à restaurer l'influence globale de la Russie au détriment des États-Unis. Un accord de paix mal négocié risquerait de fragiliser l'Europe — un partenaire économique majeur de l'Amérique — et d'aggraver les défis géopolitiques auxquels Washington est déjà confronté. Le journal conclut que l'administration Trump devra tôt ou tard affronter le Kremlin, Mais plus elle attend, plus cela coûtera cher aux États-Unis.La Cour Suprême autorise l'administration Trump à révoquer le statut de protection temporaire pour les migrants vénézuéliens. Le gouvernement pourra donc expulser quelque 350.000 Vénézuéliens, alors que cette affaire est jugée devant les tribunaux. Mais chez les Vénézuéliens de Miami, c'est la panique. Une Vénézuélienne citée par le Miami Herald dénonce une « décision cruelle » qui laisse des milliers de personnes dans un vide juridique. Ils pourraient perdre leur statut et leur autorisation de travail. Selon cette habitante d'Orlando, la Cour Suprême « fait fi de la dignité humaine et des valeurs fondamentales américaines, comme celle de protéger ceux qui ne peuvent pas rentrer chez eux en sécurité ». Et Cecilia González Herrera, c'est son nom, de poursuivre : « Nous sommes des gens honnêtes — étudiants, enseignants, soignants, survivants — qui contribuent grandement à ce pays. Nous méritons mieux que de vivre dans la peur d'être renvoyés vers un pays dangereux. ». Le journal El Nacional souligne qu'en Floride, où résident environ la moitié des plus de 600.000 Vénézuéliens présents sur le territoire américain, beaucoup avaient voté pour Donald Trump, pensant qu'il soutiendrait leur combat contre le président Nicolas Maduro. La suppression du TPS est d'autant plus dure pour cette communauté car ce statut de résidence temporaire est maintenu pour d'autres nationalités, comme les Salvadoriens. Journal de la 1ère Dernière ligne droite pour la campagne sucrière.

How is reimbursement decided? Have an inside look from the committee itself as we unpack exactly how a new CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) code is created, assessed, and ultimately valued for physician Medicare reimbursement. In this episode of BackTable, Dr. Sabeen Dhand is joined by radiation oncologist Dr. Amar Rewari and interventional radiologist Dr. Curtis Anderson, both of whom sit on the RVS Update Committee (RUC).---SYNPOSISThe conversation covers who participates in the RUC, the preparation it takes to propose a new CPT code, and what it's like to collaborate with physicians from all specialties. They discuss the confidential yet crucial role of the RUC in determining physician work and practice expenses, advocacy efforts, and the impact of healthcare policies on reimbursement. The doctors stress the importance of physician engagement—especially through member surveys—and share how providers can get involved. The guests also touch on their personal journeys and motivations within the RUC and introduce Dr. Rewari's podcast, ‘Value Health Voices', which focuses on healthcare policy and economics.---TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Introduction and Importance of Surveys01:18 - Understanding the RVS Update Committee (RUC)6:36 - How Does a New CPT Code Get Introduced?09:44 - Challenges and Dynamics within the RUC20:52 - Health Value Voices Podcast22:51 - Transparency in Healthcare Policy24:39 - Future of Healthcare Payments29:00 - Getting Involved in Healthcare Policy33:43- Final Thoughts and Call to Action---RESOURCESHealth Value Voices Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/0cxnf4Il3QK3cvFFKxwPWL?si=212d084a09034cf2

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!IG: Stroke_riser21 The boundary between certified and qualified trainers becomes starkly apparent when working with clients who have complex medical conditions. Through the journey of Jimmy, a stroke survivor with arteriovenous malformation (AVM), we examine the critical approach qualified trainers must take when designing rehabilitation programs.Jimmy's story is particularly powerful—once a Division I baseball player throwing 90+ mph fastballs, he experienced a hemorrhagic stroke during exercise when his "ticking time bomb" AVM ruptured. After emergency brain surgery and months of therapy, Jimmy faced the mental challenge of rebuilding his identity before even beginning serious physical rehabilitation.What sets qualified trainers apart is their approach to medical collaboration. Before designing Jimmy's program, I connected with both his physician and our team physical therapist, establishing clear communication channels and demonstrating anatomical knowledge that overcame the common stigma about personal trainers being merely "appearance-focused" without substantive expertise. This interdisciplinary approach created a safe framework for Jimmy's program, focusing on intensity management due to seizure risk while implementing strategic movement patterns.The program incorporated bilateral squats biased toward his stronger right side (potentially creating a crossover effect to strengthen his affected left side), grip training for his left hand which remained claw-like due to muscle tone issues, and carefully monitored rest periods. The most emotional breakthrough came when Jimmy, with proper supervision, successfully transitioned from standing to floor and back again—bringing tears to his eyes as he said, "The most important thing people need with stroke is hope, and what that did right there gives me hope."This experience highlights why proper training for special populations demands comprehensive understanding of anatomy, criticWant to ask us a question?

Lisa Schlosberg, LMSW, HHC, CPT, RYT is a trauma informed online coach for people struggling with weight loss and overall health.  Her first hand experience with the struggles of weight and health, from childhood obesity to extreme under-eating later in life, showed her how badly the diet and weight loss industry needed to be re-examined.  After trying every diet and weight loss program in existence, Lisa realized that the fundamental lack in every single one of these programs was a profound ignorance to how emotional needs manifest physically in cravings and addictions.  If the biggest problem you have with food is that you're an emotional eater, it's not a problem you have with food; it's a question about how you're coping – or not – with your emotions.  That realization led Lisa to found Out of the Cave and help everyone find true health.Out of the Cave: https://www.outofthecave.health/Work with Joy: https://withjoyhs.wordpress.com/Work with Laura: https://lcollinslcsw.com/Music by PathfireOpening by Ian LevensteinEdited by Hahnacity

Strength training is integral in every workout routine — for building muscle, as well as tapping into the many ways it influences overall health. Yet lifting weights can be intimidating, especially if you're new to it. And even if you have experience, you want to make sure the efforts you're putting in are as effective as they can be.   With that in mind, Jeff Rosga, CPT, joins us to talk about the movement patterns and other variables that form the backbone of a well-rounded and productive strength regimen.   Find the episode highlights, get related resources and view the transcript for this episode at https://experiencelife.lifetime.life/podcast/whats-really-in-an-effective-strength-training-plan    Have thoughts you'd like to share or topic ideas for future episodes?

On the podcast this week, Adam Copenhaver shares with us about his early ministry caring for an older congregation, and his education and research on Colossians. He also tells us about his current pastoral context leading a church in a small, migrant farm town which had previously been led by an abusive pastor. He previews the breakout topic he will lead at the 2025 CPT Conference, Good Shepherds: Pastoral Identity and the Future of the Church. How can our churches become both helpful and welcoming to those who are suffering abuse or oppression? How can pastors identify and eliminate harmful tendencies in themselves that could lead to abuse later?

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Why do 90% of personal trainers fail within their first year? This eye-opening conversation with David, a successful trainer from Wichita, Kansas, exposes the critical gaps in traditional fitness education that leave new trainers unprepared for real-world success.David shares his journey from YMCA trainer to business owner, revealing how the repetitions he gained working with diverse clients proved far more valuable than any certification. "I've never met a trainer who contributes their success to their baseline certification," he notes, highlighting the disconnect between industry education and actual career requirements.The discussion explores how the personal training industry's low barrier to entry damages its professional reputation. Unlike physical therapists who undergo rigorous clinical training, trainers can start working after a weekend certification course. This minimal requirement leads many to view training as a side hustle rather than a serious profession.Both professionals advocate for a complete overhaul of trainer education to include supervised experience, business skills training, and communication coaching. They discuss how successful trainers must master multiple roles – from social media manager to community outreach organizer – while developing their technical knowledge.The conversation takes an interesting turn when they explore book publishing as a pathway to establishing authority in the fitness industry. David shares his plans to write a book for struggling trainers, while receiving practical advice on self-publishing, editing, and marketing strategies that can transform a trainer's career trajectory.Whether you're a new trainer struggling to build your business or an experienced professional looking to level up, this episode delivers actionable insights on differentiating yourself in a crowded marketplace.

In the 890th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Kyna England talk about admitted poker cheat Ali Imsirovic being DQ'ed mid-tournament from an event in Florida. Was it the right thing to do? It was a highly debated development, and the crew dove headfirst into the drama by discussing a poker black list, what bestbet Jacksonville could've done differently, and if poker pariahs could even be welcomed back to the game. They then give an update on Tom Dwan, whose recent social media posts really concerned the poker community, and then Connor Richards headed to PokerGO Studio to chat with the controversial Haliey “Hawk Tuah Girl” Welch and others at the Celebrity Poker Tour (CPT) Game Night VI.

De son vrai nom Sean Combs, celui qui a régné pendant des années sur le hip-hop de la côte Est des États-Unis est le principal accusé d'un dossier qui mêle sexe, argent, drogue et manipulation. Sean Combs, c'est le rappeur et producteur à succès qui s'appelait autrefois Puff Daddy, un nom qui fait clairement référence au cannabis, puis plus tard P. Diddy. Sean Combs, c'est 3 Grammy Awards, un Oscar, des millions d'albums vendus, dont quatre certifiés disque de platine. Ce sont aussi des collaborations avec Mary J Blige, Notorious BIG, Jennifer Lopez, Jay Z, ou le pédophile condamné R. Kelly. Il a son étoile sur Hollywood Boulevard, à Los Angeles. Bref, c'est un homme qui pèse d'un poids énorme dans le milieu musical, rappelle notre correspondant à Washington, Guillaume Naudin.P. Diddy est inculpé de 5 chefs d'accusation, dont certains peuvent lui valoir la prison à vie, parmi lesquels trafic sexuel et racket ou encore transport en vue d'activités de prostitution. Les procureurs lui reprochent notamment l'organisation de ce que lui-même appelle des « freak offs », des événements au cours desquels des femmes à qui il faisait miroiter des opportunités de carrière étaient sommées, en étant droguées si nécessaire, de satisfaire ses désirs sexuels ou encore de s'engager dans des activités sexuelles avec des prostitués masculins, pendant plusieurs jours. Le tout filmé à la fois pour le plaisir de Sean Combs et aussi à des fins de faire chanter les victimes pas assez dociles. Plaider non-coupable ?P. Diddy a décidé de plaider non-coupable, alors que les accusations sont suffisamment graves pour que même une star comme lui attende son procès en prison, dans une section réservée tout de même à des célébrités, ou à des gens qui bénéficient d'un traitement privilégié. Il dément toutes les accusations, indiquant que toutes ces activités étaient consenties. Quatre femmes figurent parmi les accusatrices. L'acte d'accusation les désigne anonymement, mais on sait au moins que la victime dite N°1 est Casandra Ventura, Cassie pour la scène et ses activités de choriste, ex-petite amie de Sean Combs. Comme d'autres femmes, elle l'avait déjà poursuivi au civil dans une affaire qui s'était réglée à l'amiable, autrement dit moyennant finances.Ce procès doit durer 8 à 10 semaines et il commence aujourd'hui par la traditionnelle sélection du jury, on sait déjà qu'il sera très suivi dans l'industrie du spectacle, parce que Sean Combs connaissait beaucoup de monde et depuis longtemps. Des fêtes, il en a organisé beaucoup dans ses différentes maisons. Il est donc légitime de se demander qui savait quoi et qui participait à quoi. Il faut dire que ce genre de pratiques ne date apparemment pas d'hier dans l'industrie musicale. C'est assez courant depuis les années 70 de faire taire les victimes par la menace ou par des NDA, des « non-disclosure agreements », des accords de confidentialité moyennant finances, selon une enquête du Washington Post. Quelques femmes ont osé témoigner et elles ne sont évidemment plus dans le milieu musical. À Miami, où va Little Haïti ?Le quartier de Little Haïti à Miami a pris ce nom après l'arrivée de très nombreux Haïtiens dans les années 1960 et 1970, ceux qui fuyaient la dictature des Duvalier. De la vie de l'époque, il reste encore les peintures murales. Mais pour le reste, les magasins de produits haïtiens, les marchés, les restaurants, plus grand-chose ne subsiste. L'appétit des promoteurs immobiliers a fait partir les Haïtiens, comme l'a constaté notre envoyé spécial, Eric Solo. Reportage à réécouter dans son intégralité dans l'édition du jour. Les États-Unis désignent deux entités criminelles d'Haïti comme des organisations terroristesLa coalition Vivre Ensemble et le gang Gran Grif viennent d'être désignés « organisations terroristes transnationales ». Le chef de la diplomatie américaine, Marco Rubio, les qualifie de « menace directe pour la sécurité nationale » et il estime dans un communiqué que ces deux entités sont « les deux principales sources d'instabilité et de violence en Haïti ».Conséquence concrète de cette décision : toute transaction avec Gran Grif ou Vivre Ensemble placera les auteurs de ces transactions sous la menace de sanctions anti-terroristes. On parle aussi bien de ressortissants haïtiens que de personnes résidant légalement aux États-Unis, et même de citoyens américains. Autrement dit, l'administration Trump tente d'asphyxier ces groupes criminels en coupant leurs sources de revenus. Réaction du Conseil président de transition sur le réseau social X : c'est « un pas dans la bonne direction », estime le CPT qui parle aussi de signal encourageant pour les magistrats d'Haïti qui souhaitent éradiquer la criminalité. Le CPT se dit « prêt à collaborer avec tous les pays soutenant la lutte contre le fléau du terrorisme ». L'actualité des Outre-mer avec nos confrères de la 1èreC'est une conséquence peu connue de l'éruption en 1902 de la Montagne Pelée : « l'exil » d'un certain nombre de Martiniquais… en Guyane. À écouter aussiSe souvenir de l'éruption de la montagne Pelée de 1902, avec Anne Terrier

What if the best person to solve the mystery of alien communication isn't a SETI researcher or a radio astronomer, but instead a theoretical physicist trained in the deepest notions of physical law, symmetries, and quantum field theory? Well, today, I'm joined by Latham Boyle, a renowned theoretical physicist exploring the fundamental symmetries of the universe and developing new ideas to understand how the universe began. But his research goes beyond that—he's also tackling one of the greatest mysteries of all time: the Fermi Paradox. After explaining everything we need to know about symmetries, Latham shares his bold theory of a mirror universe, where the cosmos is symmetric across the Big Bang, and how that could explain the strange silence from the stars. We explore how this radical idea might reshape our understanding of dark matter, the origin of the universe, and why advanced civilizations might be using quantum signals we're simply not equipped to detect.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic reporter Lazar Berman and environment reporter Sue Surkes join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Earlier this morning, a Houthi ballistic missile struck inside the area of Ben Gurion Airport after the Israel Defense Forces failed to intercept it. Landings and takeoffs were halted before the projectile struck. Magen David Adom says six people were physically hurt in the Houthi missile attack on Ben Gurion Airport. Berman explains how the biggest blow may have been to Israel's reputation. Two IDF soldiers -- Cpt. Noam Ravid, 23 from Sha’arei Tikva and Staff Sgt. Yaly Seror, 20, from Omer -- were killed and two were wounded in an explosion in a booby-trapped tunnel shaft in southern Gaza’s Rafah Saturday, the military announced. This terrible announcement comes after we heard last night that the military will resume mass call-ups of reserves for more intensive operations in Gaza. Berman weighs in on whether Israel is gearing up for "the" big operation in Gaza, or whether that will be on hold until after US President Donald Trump's visit to the region. The Israel Defense Forces said its fighter jets had carried out a wave of airstrikes in Syria late Friday, less than a day after Israel attacked near the presidential palace in Damascus, amid Israeli warnings to Syria’s new Islamist rulers not to harm their country’s Druze minority following deadly sectarian clashes. Also, on Saturday, the IDF said troops were “deployed to southern Syria and prepared to prevent hostile forces from entering the area and Druze villages.” This comes as an Israeli Air Force helicopter ferried humanitarian aid to the Sweida area of southern Syria and retrieved wounded Druze. Berman gives insight into Israel's activities. The Fire and Rescue Service said Thursday evening that firefighters had gained control of the conflagrations that had ravaged the Jerusalem hills for close to 30 hours. The announcement came hours after roads and train lines were reopened and evacuees from the area were permitted to return to their homes. Surkes describes the factors that led to this massive outbreak and why lessons definitely have yet to be learned. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!How to Become A Successful Personal Trainer Vol 2, Chapter 5 is dedicated to helping people get hired at Equinox and Life Time. Mijoia is looking to get hired at the Berkeley Equinox. This podcast will help her build confidence, review her elevator speech, and land her dream job as a QUALIFIED Certified Personal Trainer w/ the BEST personal training certification in fitness, SUF-CPT.Landing a trainer position at elite gyms like Equinox isn't just about having a certification—it's about demonstrating you're the complete package. This episode breaks down exactly how to stand out in an industry where 90% of personal trainers quit within their first year.Most certification programs prepare you technically but leave you woefully unprepared for the business side of training, especially sales. That's why the average trainer takes six to nine months to reach $10,000 in monthly revenue, while Show Up Fitness-certified trainers typically hit this milestone in just one to three months.When approaching your dream job interview, preparation is everything. Recruiters at premium gyms receive thousands of applications yearly and can spot a half-hearted effort immediately. We walk through crafting the perfect elevator pitch, researching the company thoroughly (knowing everything from the CEO's name to their expansion plans), and confidently discussing your strengths and weaknesses in ways that position you as an asset.The secret sauce? Confidence without cockiness. Learning to articulate your ambitions ("I will be the top-performing trainer at this location") while demonstrating humility and a willingness to learn. We explore how to mirror your interviewer's communication style, ask thought-provoking questions, and follow up persistently if you don't hear back.Whether you're an introvert or extrovert, we show you how to leverage your natural tendencies as strengths rather than limitations.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Your bones are constantly changing. Beneath the surface, specialized cells called osteoblasts build up bone tissue while osteoclasts break it down. This delicate balance shifts as we age, with breakdown eventually outpacing construction—especially in women after menopause when estrogen production decreases. The result? Weakened bones vulnerable to fractures that can dramatically reduce quality and length of life.The good news? Osteoporosis is 100% reversible. But not through the gentle exercise most people associate with bone health. True bone remodeling requires significant resistance—at least 75% of your maximum capacity. That means working in the challenging 6-12 repetition range where those last few reps feel difficult. Light workouts might feel tough, but they won't trigger the microscopic bone stress needed to stimulate rebuilding.The type of loading matters too. Vertical loading—where gravity forces travel through the length of your bones—provides optimal stimulus. Back squats, bench press, and overhead presses create this vertical pressure, while even beneficial exercises like hip thrusts don't provide the same bone-building stimulus. This explains why activities like swimming and yoga offer minimal bone density benefits despite their many other advantages.Proper progression is essential, especially for beginners or those with existing bone concerns. Start with bodyweight or assisted movements to develop competence before adding load. A thoughtful progression might move from TRX-assisted squats to goblet squats and eventually to barbell back squats, gradually increasing weight over time. With consistent training and proper nutrition (adequate protein and calcium), meaningful improvements in bone density typically emerge after about six months.Personal trainers have a unique opportunity to address this critical health issue. By understanding bone physiology and designing progressive resistance programs, you can literally Want to ask us a question?

This episode dives deep into the SWIFT analysis framework that's revolutionizing how personal trainers build sustainable, six-figure businesses without burnout.Unlike the traditional SWOT analysis, SWIFT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Improvements, Fears, Trajectory) provides actionable principles that translate directly to professional growth. The framework emphasizes building on strengths rather than dwelling on weaknesses, with practical strategies for implementing multiple revenue streams using the 60-30-10 rule: 60% from your primary service, 30% from a secondary service like nutrition coaching, and 10% from supplementary offerings.We share the exciting evolution of Show Up Fitness, from our partnerships with premium brands like Lifetime and Equinox to our new Atlanta internship launching June 9th. These collaborations aren't just name-dropping – they create concrete pathways for our certified trainers to secure positions commanding $150-300 per session, making six-figure incomes achievable in the first year. That's a stark contrast to the $40-50K typically earned with traditional certifications at entry-level positions.What sets our approach apart? We've completely reimagined the certification process with hands-on learning and practical assessments.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian and culture editor Jessica Steinberg join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Fabian was in the Gaza Strip last week at the Morag Corridor. He compares this trip to previous IDF embeds and describes what he saw. We learn about the very intense fighting in the Strip and hear about the incidents in which three servicemen recently lost their lives: Master Sgt. (res.) Asaf Cafri, Cpt. Ido Voloch and Sgt. Neta Yitzhak Kahane, of the Border Police’s Yamas covert unit. For only the third time since a ceasefire in Lebanon went into effect in November 2024, the IDF carried out an attack in the Beirut area. We learn what the IDF was targeting and what this means for the ceasefire. Some 12,000 people led by Holocaust survivors and an Israeli delegation of released hostages, hostages’ family members, and bereaved families marched Thursday from Auschwitz to the Birkenau camp for the 2025 March of the Living, with the horrors of the murder of six million Jews mingling with the plight of the captives in Gaza. Steinberg was on the ground with them and reports back. To end the program, we hear about a rally staged Sunday night by the families of the “Beautiful 6,” six hostages murdered by Hamas terrorists in Gaza at the end of August last year. The six hostages killed by their captors in Gaza were Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Almog Sarusi, Or Danino and Alex Lubanov. We hear about an evening of song, prayer and calls for unity. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog for more updates.

Smaller isn't always better. In this episode, I'm calling out the myth that weight loss alone is the goal and showing you how real fitness, strength, and confidence come from more than just shrinking your body.

In this episode, we're breaking down the truth about consistency in a strength training program, and spoiler alert: it's not about perfection.I'll walk you through what real consistency looks like, how to build strength with just 3 workouts a week, and why missing a session doesn't mean you've fallen off the wagon. If you've ever felt like “you're not doing enough,” this one's for you.Let's ditch the all-or-nothing mindset and start showing up in a way that's actually sustainable.Join us in the Inspire Fitness program: Use the link here:https://inspirehw.com/Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fit.nutritionist?igsh=MTJqZXhjODR2ZzduaA%3D%3D&utm_source=qrFollow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Casey.Young.RD.CPT?mibextid=LQQJ4d

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!The easy way, textbook certs: NASM/ACE/ISSA.The QUALIFIED WAY: NSCA, ACSM, SUF-CPT.Hands-on learning > specializations.Get a DPT & RD on your team.Master the fundamentals of movement, anatomy, sales, and assessments.Ever wonder why so many certified personal trainers struggle or quit within their first year? The answer lies in a startling disconnect between certification marketing and real-world preparation.Across the fitness landscape, aspiring trainers face a critical choice – pursue the "easiest" certification or invest in truly learning the craft. This episode exposes the uncomfortable truth that the most marketed certifications (NASM, ACE, ISSA) fail to prepare trainers for actual client work, while the certifications respected by physical therapists and movement experts (NSCA, ACSM) remain less popular despite better preparing professionals for success.Drawing from over 20 years of experience and thousands of trainer interactions, I unpack why memorizing textbooks and multiple-choice answers isn't the path to becoming a respected fitness professional. You'll discover why no client will ever ask you to identify an "agonist muscle" or follow NASM's formulaic approach, yet these are what commercial certifications test extensively. Instead, real success comes from mastering movement assessment, developing hands-on skills, and building relationships with other health professionals.For those serious about turning their passion into a sustainable career, this episode offers a reality check and a clear alternative path. The fitness industry doesn't need more certificate holders – it needs qualified, competent trainers who can deliver results and earn their place alongside other health professionals. Whether you're just starting out or feeling frustrated after certification, this frank discussion will help you understand what it really takes to thrive as a personal trainer.Want to ask us a question?

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Become a QUALIFIED Certified personal trainer with www.showupfitness.comQualifying yourself as a professional personal trainer means going beyond basic certifications when working with clients who have complex conditions like Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). This episode breaks down exactly how to establish yourself as a trusted fitness professional within the medical community while designing effective programs for clients with neurological challenges.When working with clients who have medical conditions, your first move should always be reaching out directly to their healthcare providers. We walk you through exactly how to approach doctors and therapists, what to say, and how to present yourself as a qualified professional who stands apart from the Instagram fitness crowd. This simple step not only improves your programming but positions you for valuable referral relationships.For the long-distance runner with FND who experiences symptoms while descending stairs, we detail a comprehensive programming approach focusing on unilateral strength, frontal plane stability, and neurological control. You'll learn specific exercise selections—from explosive step-downs to airplane poses—that directly address the functional limitations while building overall performance. Most importantly, we explain why consistent progression of these movements creates better results than constantly changing exercises.The difference between average trainers and elite coaches isn't just exercise selection—it's creating comprehensive systems and networks. By learning to work collaboratively with medical professionals and focusing on evidence-based programming rather than entertainment, you'll not only help clients overcome conditions like FND, but you'll establish yourself as an indispensable part of their healthcare team.

In this passionate, no-holds-barred episode, we dive deep into why this happens and how aspiring trainers can avoid this fate by taking a radically different approach to building their careers.We expose the fundamental flaws in the traditional path most trainers take: getting a textbook certification that requires minimal knowledge, seeking "experience" at low-tier gyms without proper mentorship, failing to master anatomy and movement fundamentals, and refusing to invest in quality continuing education. This approach virtually guarantees failure in an industry that should offer tremendous opportunity.The episode offers a blueprint for success that stands in stark contrast to conventional wisdom. True success comes from mastering anatomy (can you name all 17 muscles of the shoulder?), understanding movement patterns for efficient programming, building relationships with medical professionals, and consistently investing in yourself. When you develop genuine expertise rather than collecting certifications, you can command premium rates while working fewer hours.Our message is clear: stop following the struggling masses and start challenging yourself to reach a higher standard. The trainers who thrive aren't just passionate - they're professionally competent, continuously learning, and committed to excellence. Ready to fish in a blue ocean where the competition disappears?

Hi everyone, happy Tuesday! Have you ever wondered what it's like to be a stunt performer? Then you'll love this week's conversation with my guest, Patrick Sabongui. Patrick is a brilliant actor, but he got his start in stunts and if you've watched an action movie in the last 20 years, you've probably seen his work . We first met when on Christmas Sail, where he played Luke Fletcher. He also played Chief David Singh on the Flash and is currently starring as Jacob Hassani in the new show The Hunting Party. I found it so fascinating to learn more about his process as an actor because he approaches everything through the lens of physical technique and martial arts. Patrick's also a professor and honestly I feel like this interview was a free acting class! I learned a lot, and I think you will too. Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where my producer Jeph and I read Fan emails from the Mail Sack, including an update on Paul Sun-Hyung Lee and his quest for a Cpt.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Discover the top books for personal trainers to read like Grit, How to win friends and influence people, How to Become A Successful Personal TRainer and many more.Reading might be the most underrated skill for personal trainers looking to elevate their careers above the 90% who quit within their first year. While most fitness professionals obsess over certification acronyms, the truly successful ones are quietly building their intellectual foundation through consistent, deliberate reading habits.The contrast is striking. Picture a potential client walking into a gym to meet two trainers: one scrolling social media, the other absorbed in a professional development book. Before a word is spoken, one has already established themselves as a dedicated professional. This single habit creates an immediate differentiation that clients intuitively recognize and respect.Starting a reading practice doesn't require massive time commitments. Begin with just 5-10 minutes of distraction-free reading daily, timing yourself to establish a baseline reading speed. Create the right environment by eliminating distractions – put your phone across the room, find a quiet space, and treat reading with the same discipline you bring to physical training. As with fitness, consistency produces remarkable results over time.The reading curriculum for elite trainers spans multiple disciplines. For mindset development, explore works like "Grit" by Angela Duckworth or "Can't Hurt Me" by David Goggins. Business acumen grows through texts like "Go For No" by Richard Fenton, which teaches the counterintuitive approach of pursuing rejection to calibrate value. Technical mastery comes through studying "Starting Strength," "Fat Loss Forever," and "The Science and Practice of Strength Training." For comprehensive development, aim to read 50+ books annually – a simple habit that places you among the intellectual elite in fitness.Transform your reading habit into Want to ask us a question?

Send us a textIn this episode of The Incubator, Ben and Daphna speak with Dr. Scott Duncan, Division Chief at the University of Louisville, about the critical importance of medical billing and coding in neonatology. The discussion explores how accurate documentation and thoughtful use of codes can impact everything from individual reimbursement to hospital funding and staffing. Dr. Duncan explains the key differences between critical care and intensive care coding, highlighting how misunderstanding these definitions can lead to missed opportunities for appropriate billing. The conversation also delves into the complexities of CPT and ICD-10 codes, bundled versus unbundled services, and how Diagnosis-Related Group (DRG) systems influence hospital revenue. They discuss how proper coding affects downstream resources, including staffing, and why the financial viability of neonatal units depends in part on getting this right. Dr. Duncan reflects on the need for better education in this area, particularly for trainees, and shares practical resources and upcoming initiatives aimed at helping clinicians build this essential skill set. This episode offers an eye-opening look at a topic often overlooked in medical training, but vital to the sustainability of neonatal care.
