After Maddie Smith quit drinking, she just didn't know what to do with her hands ... until she discovered Cross Fit and built her epic physique! Now she's a top contender for “Ms. Health and Fitness 2026”, and she's doing it all for a veteran nonprofit. We talked about how she overcame alcoholism, an eating disorder, and endured recovery groups that didn't understand her trauma. Now, in peak physical condition she shared advice on conquering addictions and helping veterans through a partnership with Shields and Stripes, a veteran support program founded by Steve Nisbet, fellow athlete and Air Force Pararescue Specialist veteran. Nisbet described the life of an elite “PJ”, conducting casualty evac missions in combat zones, the tragic death of a fellow PJ, the Army's betrayal and the emotional toll of his service. But he powered through the pain and used his physical training expertise to create the acclaimed Shields and Stripes veteran support program. The program draws from the type of sports therapy used by pro athletes and Special Operations teams and combines it with customized nutrition plans and therapy from experienced psychologists. Nisbet described the incredible results attendees experienced at recent programs in Arizona and Florida, and shared stories of vets who no longer need the medications doctors said they couldn't live without. Smith also expressed her shared love of fitness as medicine, and what she will do if crowned contest winner, “If I win, I'm donating the $20K prize to the Shields & Stripes Foundation. I'm competing to break the stigma around recovery & mental health, not to win money. Giving the prize to a nonprofit founded by someone who rebuilt his life after tragedy & now helps others find their strength, means more than anything $20K could buy me.” Vote for Maddie Smith, fitness pro and Army spouse, here:https://mshealthandfit.com/2026/madeline-smith Check out the innovative, healing programs for veterans at Shields and Stripes, here:https://shieldsandstripes.org/ To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Where do you feel most alive, and with whom? In this conversation with Daniel Coyle, author of Flourish, we explore why the most powerful experiences of our lives aren't about individual achievement—they're about shared, joyful, meaningful growth. Discover how to shift from chasing success alone to building the communities that make us feel deeply connected, fully present, and truly ourselves.We break down the two attention systems that shape how you experience the world, why awakening cues can transform ordinary moments into meaningful connections, and how saying yes to "yellow doors"—those unexpected opportunities you'd normally pass by—can lead to the richest relationships of your life. Learn how to become what Daniel calls an "athlete gardener," intentionally cultivating the conditions where you and the people around you can flourish together.

A rapid-fire Q&A episode where we go straight at the stuff PTs quietly struggle with: converting free trials into paying clients, how to raise prices for legacy clients without losing trust, and how to spot capacity issues before your standards slip.They break down what actually drives renewals (hint: it's not “more value”), how to communicate a price increase with confidence, why most “burnout” is really poor recovery + poor structure, and how to guide someone from “I need in-person” to “online is enough” by building the service around outcomes — not sessions.There's also practical guidance on rent vs revenue-split gym models, how to capture testimonials that tell a story, and what to look for when building a team in a small studio (vision + values first, skills second).00:05 Intro + Sky hosting + banter00:25 Nik's call-out: “Pause this and leave a review”01:14 Ant update: Accelerator momentum + “busy fool” trend03:08 Nik update: Retention Reset event + what it's focused on04:29 Q1: Convert free trial → paid (set the “next step” before they start)06:31 Q2: What should new PTMA members know?

Talking about money shouldn't feel like emotional CrossFit, but for most of us it does. In this episode, Shar breaks down why money conversations get so charged—and why it's rarely about the numbers. You'll learn the difference between money values and money logistics, how childhood money wiring shows up in adult decisions, and how to stop trying to solve emotional issues with spreadsheets. Shari walks through four common money personalities (the Avoider, the Optimist, the Controller, and the Security-Seeker), explains what happens when they clash, and gives you practical timing rules, language swaps, and curiosity scripts that keep conversations from turning into fights, shutdowns, or silent scorekeeping. Be sure to grab Shari's Money Conversation Guide to learn how talk about money without spiraling, shutting down or starting a fight (with yourself or anyone else). Whether you're single, dating, partnered, married, cohabiting, or rebuilding after a breakup, this episode will help you communicate about money with more clarity, less defensiveness, and a lot more self-trust.

Preparing for your first CrossFit competition or HYROX race looks a lot like normal training, just with clearer priorities. Amanda, Brooke, and Morgan break down what shifts when you move from working out to training for an event. They talk through how CrossFit and HYROX overlap, where they differ, and why most first-time competitors train too hard, too often, without a clear strategy. They also cover the nutrition side of competition prep for both sports: eating enough to support volume, fueling longer efforts, carb avoidance, and why body composition goals often conflict with performance. This one's for anyone considering their first CrossFit or HYROX competition and wanting a realistic picture of training demands, recovery, and what matters most when you decide to sign up.

Send us a textIn this Fusion Hack, Nikki Lagorio shares a practical, competitor-tested system for staying on plan while traveling—without overcomplicating it. She walks through simple meal prep travel hacks (including collapsible Tupperware), how to prevent food from going bad on the road, and the small items that save you when options are limited—like egg whites, shelf-stable add-ons, and to-go condiment packs you can keep ready at home. She also covers the “what-if” moments that can derail prep fast, including a hotel power outage before a competition, and how having basic contingencies keeps you calm and consistent.Beyond food, Nikki reinforces the mindset that makes travel prep sustainable: you don't need perfection—you need progress. She explains how to handle backstage logistics (paper plates or a container for your food), why staying on plan while traveling is absolutely doable with a little structure, and how to train effectively away from your normal gym. Her rule is simple: basic movements still get results. If you can hit fundamentals consistently, you'll maintain momentum and show up ready—regardless of your schedule or location.Nikki Lagorio's philosophy is rooted in the belief that movement is medicine and that true empowerment begins with the body. Her background is remarkably diverse, reflecting her lifelong commitment to physical excellence. Nikki excelled in collegiate club soccer, qualified for state championships in the 800m in track and field, competed as a CrossFit athlete, and became a 53kg USA Olympic Weightlifter, all before earning her IFBB Pro Bikini status. Her purpose was further shaped during nearly a decade in education as a high school teacher and coach, where witnessing her students achieve their goals sparked a deep passion for cultivating self-belief and growth. Today, Nikki channels her educational and athletic expertise into coaching individuals to build a powerful, enduring relationship with themselves through movement and mindful living. She specializes in integrating high-performance athletics with behavioral health, guiding others to develop mental fortitude and unlock their innate capabilities.

In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I'm joined by Elli Stenfors - HYROX Elite 15 athlete, physiotherapist, and coach.Despite coming from a competitive swimming and CrossFit background - and with no traditional running history - Elli has risen rapidly through the sport. She's already clocked a 61-minute PB in the Pro division and finished 7th in her Elite 15 debut in Melbourne.In this conversation, we cover:• How Elli transitioned from swimming and CrossFit into HYROX at an elite level• Why she prefers to train and race by feel rather than relying on watches or data• How she builds running fitness with relatively modest run volume• Balancing strength work, endurance, and staying injury-free• Her mindset under pressure - including wall balls late in the raceIt was a really open, honest, and thoughtful chat with loads of practical insight into what it takes to perform at the sharp end of HYROX, and I think you'll really enjoy it.
Presenting Sponsor Thirdzy! https://thirdzy.com/JAZZYPromotion Code for 15% off: JAZZYEveryday we take a break from the busy work day to catch our breath, hang out with friends and talk about the world of Sports, Entertainment and specifically CrossFit. Today we talk about how Mayhem can't seem to imagine why athletes would got to other events instead of theirs. Should CrossFit have an all-star game or do we already have it? We take a look at some of the comments from the last few shows.
In this episode, I sit down with longtime friends and CrossFit athletes Annie Thorisdottir and Katrin Davidsdottir to talk honestly about their journeys into motherhood as elite athletes. We reflect on how pregnancy and postpartum seasons have reshaped how they view training, identity, and long-term athletic sustainability. We discuss the importance of shifting expectations, letting go of the pressure to "prove" anything during pregnancy or postpartum, and instead focusing on building a strong foundation for health, recovery, and longevity. Annie and Katrin share real experiences—both physical and mental—that highlight how transformative these seasons can be, even for the most seasoned athletes. This conversation is a reminder that pregnancy and postpartum aren't detours from athletic life—they're powerful catalyst seasons that can ultimately make you a more adaptable, resilient, and grounded athlete.

Fad workouts have been with us for decades, but they go back much further than we realize. Long before CrossFit, Zumba, P90X, Tae Box, Jazzercise or Jack LaLanne, we had 19th century strongmen. These mustachioed showmen were the first global fitness influencers. They hauled trunks of weights onto steamships, toured the world, then sold exercise equipment through the mail. The most famous was Eugene Sandow, who broke chains, and created with his own body a "manned cavalry bridge" where he would lie down while men, horses, and a carriage were driven over his body. He even fought a lion in front of an auditorium and won, although the lion was almost definitely sedated. Today’s guest is Connor Heffernan, author of “When Fitness Went Global: The Rise of Physical Culture in the Nineteenth Century.” In this episode, we discuss: Ancient Egyptians were basically doing CrossFit thousands of years ago. They trained with swinging sandbags that look exactly like modern kettlebell flows. One of the first exercise practices to experience globalization was Indian club-swinging. Indian club-swinging, originating from the heavy training clubs used by Indian wrestlers and soldiers for centuries, was observed and adopted by British military officers stationed in India during the early 1800s. Early diet culture was a carnival of quack science. Victorian fitness magazines were filled with miracle tonics, starvation cures and pseudoscientific meal plans. Many of our “new” diet trends are rebranded versions of schemes first marketed with sepia portraits and dubious testimonials. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if you could train your body to stay calm under pressure the same way Navy SEALs do? In this conversation with Level 3 Wim Hof Method instructor Brandon Powell, we explore the three-pillar system of breath work, cold exposure, and mindset training that elite athletes and military operators use to control their stress response and perform when it matters most.You'll discover how cold exposure triggers a 500% dopamine boost, why five breaths can shift you from panic to calm, and the science-backed protocols you can start today with nothing more than a cold shower and your breath. This is about building resilience from the inside out—training your nervous system to become your competitive advantage rather than your limitation.

What if the aches, stiffness, and limitations you've been accepting as "just part of getting older" aren't inevitable at all?In this conversation with Scott Hogan, author of Built from Broken, we explore the five root causes of feeling physically broken — from posture and movement patterns to tendinopathy and muscle imbalances — and the one mindset shift that changes everything: refusing to accept pain as your new normal.You'll learn why load training is the only way to actually heal connective tissue, why quarterly PT visits should be as routine as dental checkups, and how being your own mechanic means taking proactive ownership of your body's longevity.This isn't about surviving the next decade — it's about building a body that's capable, resilient, and ready for whatever life throws at you. If you've been training around pain instead of through it, this episode will show you a better way forward.
