Welcome back to The Progress Theory, where we explain the science and strategies behind human performance. In this episode, Dr Phil Price sits down with one of the UK's top CrossFit athletes, David Shorunke. Known for his impressive rise through the competitive CrossFit ranks—despite being one of the taller athletes in the sport—David shares invaluable insight into his training philosophy, the unique challenges faced by taller competitors, and the impact of recent changes to the CrossFit qualification system.Throughout their conversation, David opens up about the disappointments and lessons from the 2024 season, the essential lifestyle changes he's made for better sleep and overall wellbeing, and the critical role of mindset in managing setbacks. He also discusses how elite athletes differ from the chasing pack—not just in training intensity, but in their comprehensive approach to recovery, discipline, and, crucially, enjoyment of the process.Whether you're an aspiring athlete looking to level up or just curious about what it takes to compete at the highest levels, this episode is packed with practical advice and thought-provoking ideas. Stick around as Dr Phil and David explore the realities of elite CrossFit, the importance of adaptation, and why having fun might just be the secret to long-term success.00:00 CrossFit Semifinal Disappointment04:24 Athletic Persistence Despite Unfair Judging06:37 Post-Games Training Strategy Adjustments11:04 Optimising Training for Better Sleep15:42 Prioritising Relaxation for Athletic Recovery20:09 Athletes Neglecting Optimal Lifestyle Choices24:25 Beyond Competition: Measuring Athletic Progress29:15 Tracking Workout Progress through Reflection31:27 Evaluating Overtraining Signs in Training34:19 Gradual Adaptation in Running Training38:57 Finding Your Optimal Squat Stance41:56 Finding Joy in Training Sustainability50:07 Unique Paths in Athletic Careers51:38 "Behind the CrossFit Spotlight"57:03 "Instagram's Influence on Confirmation Bias"59:13 Follow David for Elite InsightsTakeawaysIndividualised Programming is Essential: David highlights that there's no one-size-fits-all approach. He's learned to focus on principles rather than rigid training styles, adapting movement patterns and volume to suit his unique build and needs. This shift led to fewer injuries, more enjoyment, and consistent improvement.Lifestyle Matters as Much as Training: Beyond the gym, David credits improved sleep, better stress management, and genuine downtime for his progress. He's prioritised true recovery—not just physically, but mentally—emphasising that the best athletes optimise all 24 hours of the day, not just their training blocks.Enjoyment and Curiosity Fuel Sustainability: Perhaps most refreshingly, David argues that sustainable success comes from fun and curiosity, not pure discipline. Staying enthusiastic, remaining curious, and letting enjoyment drive daily training make the grind far more manageable and productive—especially when the inevitable setbacks arise.FOLLOW OUR PODCASTFollow our Host / Guest@theprogresstheory@drphilprice@ShorunkeApex...

Women go on hormone therapy to manage peri/menopause symptoms and feel better. But sometimes to their surprise, they feel worse. Or some symptoms go away while others pop up. That's because of the hormones! We have hormone receptors all over our body and whenever we switch up the signals they're receiving, whether through the menopause transition itself or through the hormones we use, they're going to respond to those changes, and sometimes not in the way we want. Most side effects are manageable with time or by dialing in delivery methods and/or doses. It's just important to know what to expect. We talk all about it this week with our resident menopause specialist Dr. Carla DiGirolamo.Carla DiGirolamo, MD, PhD, is a Double Board Certified Reproductive Endocrinologist and Obstetrician/Gynecologist specializing in infertility and menopausal medicine. She is also a Crossfit Level 1 trainer, Certified Nutrition Coach, and member of CrossFit Health.
