In Episode 172, we listen to Dr. Pat Davidson tell us about his dedicated journey into the world of competitive bodybuilding.  Pat has the tendency to engage in all types of training and competitions since he was a young athlete that had the hopes of becoming a professional athlete.  Whether it has been team sports, mixed martial arts, powerlifting or strongman competitions, Pat has jumped in with both feet and walked the walk.  His recent experiences with competitive bodybuilding have been no different.  Pat discusses the psychological discipline required to handle not only the comprehensive training, but more importantly, the meticulous nature of the nutritional side of competitive bodybuilding.  The combination of precision, organization and deprivation is something that Pat had never before experienced, and he cites this component as being one of the more challenging aspects of his journey.  We look forward to following Pat's future endeavours along this bodybuilding path.  Pat Davidson, Ph.D, is an exercise physiologist, strength and conditioning coach, author, consultant, and traveling lecturer. Pat started out in the fitness world as an athlete who was looking to find any training and nutrition tool possible to make him the best he could possibly be at sports. This passion for training knowledge ultimately led Pat to pursuing a Master's in Science in Strength and Conditioning, and a Ph.D in Exercise Physiology. Pat has worked as a Professor of Exercise Science at Springfield College and Brooklyn College, along with being the Director of Continuing Education and Training Methodology at Peak Performance in NYC.  You can find out more information on Pat Davidson below:  Instagram:                   https://www.instagram.com/dr.patdavidson/  Website:                      https://www.drpatdavidson.net/              The D&D Fitness Radio podcast is available at the following locations for downloadable audio, including:  iTunes – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/d-d-fitness-radio-podcast/id1331724217  iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/dd-fitness-radio-28797988/  Spreaker.com – https://www.spreaker.com/show/d-and-d-fitness-radios-show  Spotify –  https://open.spotify.com/show/5Py2SSPA4mntNwYRm0Opri    You can reach both Don and Derek at the following locations:  Don Saladino: http://www.DonSaladino.comTwitter and Instagram - @DonSaladinoYouTube - http://www.youtube.com/donsaladino  Derek M.

Episode 171 has us sitting down with Andrew Hauser, in the midst of the 2024 World Series between the LA Dodgers and NY Yankees, talking about the nuances of rehabilitation and the intricacies of professional baseball.  Andrew has had the opportunity to work in Major League Baseball for over a decade and now works in private practice addressing injuries for all professional athletes, including the MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, MLS and Olympic team athletes.  We discuss some of the causes of the injuries that are plaguing various athletes, looking at basic qualities like blood flow, oxygen distribution and general fitness levels.  Today's athletes are so fixated on the specific skills in their sports and sometimes miss the basic physical qualities in their preparation and maintenance programs.  Andrew identifies his process for improving athlete health and resiliency, as well identifying potential risks for injury in various sports.  Andrew graduated from the University of Kansas with a B.S. in Athletic Training in 2008 and obtained a Masters degree in Performance Psychology in 2020.  He has worked in a variety of roles in his 14 years of experience as an athletic trainer and strength coach, with his most recent role being the Director of Performance Rehab with the Los Angeles Dodgers during which time he was a part of their 2020 World Series team. Andrew's passions lie in both the strength and medical aspects of sport, but also in professional development and education. Prior to moving to L.A., he served as the Director of Health & Performance for the Atlanta Braves where he oversaw medical and strength staff and was able to integrate departments both in the Major League and Minor Leagues all while continuing to develop and refine his and his colleagues' skills. Andrew's experience in sport extends beyond baseball. He has worked with a number of athletes in the NFL, NHL, MLS and track/field and has become a sought-after consultant and public speaker for professionals and athletes nation-wide.  You can find out more information on Andrew Hauser below:  Instagram:                   https://www.instagram.com/andrew_hauser_atsc/  Website:                      https://www.continuumhp.com/              The D&D Fitness Radio podcast is available at the following locations for downloadable audio, including:  iTunes – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/d-d-fitness-radio-podcast/id1331724217  iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/dd-fitness-radio-28797988/  Spreaker.com – https://www.spreaker.com/show/d-and-d-fitness-radios-show  Spotify –  https://open.spotify.com/show/5Py2SSPA4mntNwYRm0Opri    You can reach both Don and Derek at the following locations:  Don Saladino: http://www.DonSaladino.comTwitter and Instagram - @DonSaladinoYouTube - http://www.youtube.com/donsaladino  Derek M.

In Episode 170, we have a frank discussion with Dr. Dwayne Jackson about the ins-and-outs of testosterone deficiencies and the need for individuals to seek out supplemental testosterone replacement therapy (TRT).  It is more and more common to hear about males seeking out TRT for lifestyle and aesthetic reasons.  However, do they truly need to replace testosterone from a clinical standpoint, or are they compensating for poor lifestyle choices, bad or non-existent exercise habits or simply not exhausting conventional methods of managing their testosterone and general health?  Dr. Jackson provides an overview of all of the possible causes of low testosterone, as well as possible reasons for these deficiencies.  For those that are willing to examine their lifestyle choices and make changes, improvements in testosterone levels can be achieved.  But, in some cases, testosterone therapy may be a reasonable option when all of the conventional options have been exhausted.  Dr. Dwayne N. Jackson is a dad, athlete, health specialist, medical educator, scientist, and entrepreneur. He has over 12 years of university education in exercise/human physiology, medicine, and nutritional biochemistry. Dr. Jackson holds a PhD in neurovascular physiology and has been educated at some of the top academic institutions in North America including University of Ottawa, the University of Western Ontario, and Yale University School of Medicine.  You can find out more information on Dr. Dwayne Jackson below:  Instagram:                   https://www.instagram.com/drdnjackson/  Website:                      https://drdwaynejackson.com/              The D&D Fitness Radio podcast is available at the following locations for downloadable audio, including:  iTunes – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/d-d-fitness-radio-podcast/id1331724217  iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/dd-fitness-radio-28797988/  Spreaker.com – https://www.spreaker.com/show/d-and-d-fitness-radios-show  Spotify –  https://open.spotify.com/show/5Py2SSPA4mntNwYRm0Opri    You can reach both Don and Derek at the following locations:  Don Saladino: http://www.DonSaladino.comTwitter and Instagram - @DonSaladinoYouTube - http://www.youtube.com/donsaladino  Derek M.

It was time to bring back Charlie Weingroff for Episode 169 to talk about some serious stuff.  Charlie and Don had a private conversation a few weeks ago on the subject of scientific research in health, wellness and performance, and where it fits in the selection of protocols, exercises and other key ingredients for optimal performance and health.  While some practitioners are quick to support their own positions with research papers, or argue against another professional's methods using peer reviewed research as a basis, we discuss the nuances of using research in an intelligent manner.  Practical experience, case studies, intuition and research can form a strong foundation of knowledge and skill that can go a long way to bolster the work of a successful practitioner or coach.  Charlie identifies the key elements that go into establishing foundational knowledge and practice.  Dr. Charlie Weingroff is one of the most sought-after professionals world-wide in physical therapy and athletic performance. He is a Doctor of Physical Therapy, a Certified Athletic Trainer, and a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist who has worked with countless A-List celebrities, professional athletes, as well as the general population.  Charlie has been Physical Performance Lead and Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for the Canadian Men's National Basketball Team from 2011-2021, where he was the architect along with Sam Gibbs of the performance program that tops all foreign countries with a over 20 active players in the NBA. He often lectures overseas often, and his relationship with Beijing Yanding Trading Company has brought him through mainland China for the last 5 years. Previous roles Charlie has held have been Nike Executive Performance Council, Lead Physical Therapist for the United States Marine Corps Special Operations Command, Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA, and Director of Athletic Development for the Roddick-Grunberg Tennis Academy.

Don and Derek reflect on the concept of incorporating running workouts as part of an overall aerobic training and conditioning program to improve overall body composition, health and wellness.  It is no surprise that obesity numbers are continuing to increase in the western world and individuals are struggling to incorporate regular exercise into their schedules, while also improving overall nutritional habits.  While running has always been considered a relatively simple way to add exercise to an individual's routine, it has never been considered an easy task.  Determination, patience and a bit of grit may be required.  Understanding how much, how hard and how frequently is always the most difficult part when starting a running program.  Ideally, individuals can incorporate a combination of methods including steady state runs and interval training to provide a combination of variety and varied intensity, improving overall cardiovascular fitness, as well as general strength and power.  Finding a routine that works for the individual is the most important step you can take in this journey.  The D&D Fitness Radio podcast is available at the following locations for downloadable audio, including:  iTunes – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/d-d-fitness-radio-podcast/id1331724217  iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/dd-fitness-radio-28797988/  Spreaker.com – https://www.spreaker.com/show/d-and-d-fitness-radios-show  Spotify –  https://open.spotify.com/show/5Py2SSPA4mntNwYRm0Opri    You can reach both Don and Derek at the following locations:  Don Saladino: http://www.DonSaladino.comTwitter and Instagram - @DonSaladino YouTube - http://www.youtube.com/donsaladino  Derek M.

In Episode 166, we have an in depth discussion on diet and health with Michelle Shapiro.  Working as a  Functional Dietician, Michelle tackles a wide range of issues related to personal health, wellness, fitness and nutrition.  We cover a wide range of topics related to diet and nutrition including the growing incidence of disease, challenges around weight loss, questions about modern food quality, habits around food preparation and consumption, and the marketing around food and dining.  Michelle Shapiro is an Integrative/Functional Registered Dietitian from NYC. Michelle has supported over 1000 clients to reverse anxiety, approach their weight with love, and heal digestive issues. Utilizing humor, nuance, and compassion, Michelle helps clients access their own liberating self-awareness. On her podcast, “Quiet the Diet,” Michelle shares her own journey of losing weight the wrong way (and what the consequences of that drastic 100 pound weight loss were), and how she learned to prioritize whole-body health as a result (instead of restrictive diets.)  Her goal is to empower listeners to make health decisions autonomously, every single time they eat. From functional nutrition to the latest research in integrative medicine, Michelle covers it all with her signature nuance and compassion.  You can find out more information on Michelle Shapiro below:  Instagram:                   https://www.instagram.com/michelleshapirord/  Website:                      https://michelleshapirord.com/            The D&D Fitness Radio podcast is available at the following locations for downloadable audio, including:  iTunes – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/d-d-fitness-radio-podcast/id1331724217  iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/dd-fitness-radio-28797988/  Spreaker.com – https://www.spreaker.com/show/d-and-d-fitness-radios-show  Spotify –  https://open.spotify.com/show/5Py2SSPA4mntNwYRm0Opri    You can reach both Don and Derek at the following locations:  Don Saladino: http://www.DonSaladino.comTwitter and Instagram - @DonSaladinoYouTube - http://www.youtube.com/donsaladino  Derek M.

In Episode 165, Don and Derek share their stories about recent long-haul trips and the challenges they faced with everything from sleep to hydration to nutrition and workout facility accessibility.  While even short-haul travel can take a toll on your energy and overall health, longer trips over numerous time zones can present even greater challenges and stressful moments.   Sleep is always the main priority, as jet lag can disturb energy, productivity and overall enjoyment.  Hydration also plays a bit part in facilitating good sleep, exercise and overall resiliency to injury and illness.  Accessibility to healthy and familiar food can also be a challenge, and some individuals may choose to bring specific snacks or supplements to fill in gaps.  And, finally, finding good facilities, environments and equipment abroad can take a lot of research, planning and preparation.  Doing all of the legwork ahead of time can be extremely beneficial in making sure your travel goes much smoother with less stress and anxiety.            The D&D Fitness Radio podcast is available at the following locations for downloadable audio, including:  iTunes – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/d-d-fitness-radio-podcast/id1331724217  iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/dd-fitness-radio-28797988/  Spreaker.com – https://www.spreaker.com/show/d-and-d-fitness-radios-show  Spotify –  https://open.spotify.com/show/5Py2SSPA4mntNwYRm0Opri    You can reach both Don and Derek at the following locations:  Don Saladino: http://www.DonSaladino.comTwitter and Instagram - @DonSaladinoYouTube - http://www.youtube.com/donsaladino  Derek M.

In Episode 164, we talk to Dr. Mike Israetel about both the benefits and perils of the wealth information on health, fitness, nutrition and performance available on social media and other accessible sources.  While it should not be difficult to find good, well-researched, common-sense information on these subjects, people still appear to be attracted to unproven trends, online gurus, charismatic influencers and methods that are simply not effective.  Dr. Israetel gives us many solid recommendations on how to find good sources of information, while avoiding the pitfalls of unfounded fads and trends.  He even talks about the benefits of AI (artificial intelligence) driven resources that can provide relatively good advice for anyone looking to improve their workouts, diets or general health.Cofounder of Renaissance Periodization, Dr. Mike Israetel​ holds a PhD in Sport Physiology from East Tennessee State University.  Currently a professor in the Strength and Hypertrophy Master's program at Lehman College, Mike has taught several courses at multiple universities, including Nutrition for Public Health, Advanced Sports Nutrition and Exercise, and Nutrition and Behavior.  Originally from Moscow, Russia, he has worked as a consultant on sports nutrition to the U.S. Olympic Training Site in Johnson City, TN, and has been an invited speaker at numerous scientific and performance/health conferences worldwide, including nutritional seminars at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Lake Placid, NY.

In Episode 157, we are fortunate to get some time speaking with Matt Wenning. Although Matt has tremendous experience in the sport of powerlifting and the physical preparation of athletes, he also has extensive experience in the restoration, repair and engineering of motor vehicles. We talk about his current automotive projects, as well as how he translates those skills and concepts to strength training. The details of Matt's education and career development are inspiring, as well as his focus and discipline around becoming a better athlete and coach. Matt Wenning is a three-time world champion powerlifter. He holds a Master's Degree in Biomechanics and a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from Ball State University. Matt grew up in Indiana, raised by a hard-working, middle class family. When he was six years old, Matt was hit by a car going 50 mph, which took a toll on his physical development. After undergoing 12 months of full leg casts and 12 months in a boot, his legs were underdeveloped. Four years later, Matt discovered lifting. It allowed him to see he was capable of anything, despite what he had gone through during recovery from his injuries. In the beginning, lifting was just a stepping stone to the goal of football. But it became a much larger pathway in his life. Lifting inspired Matt to attain higher education and become a strength coach. He excelled with a 3.9 GPA. Matt has been an adviser for the NFL, an international speaker for the NSCA, as well as a contractor for border patrol, airborne divisions, and the pentagon. He has directed over 6000 troops in strength, conditioning, and wellness for the U.S. Army including Infantry and Ranger Divisions.

In Episode 154, Don and Derek discuss the simplicity and efficacy of running as a fitness modality. We have seen the shift to other forms of aerobic fitness training over the last few decades, with many options available to individuals looking to improve aerobic conditioning, improve body composition and manage stress in their lives. But few people know how to assemble a sound running program and may be intimidated by the challenge of using running as a primary fitness tool. Don and Derek review the many methods used to introduce running to the general population, as well as the key issues around staying healthy when adopting a running program.

Episode 147 of the podcast was recorded with a group of coaching professionals attending a coaching leadership event at Vigor Ground Fitness & Performance in Renton, Washington. The group included Luka Hocevar, Kelsey Heenan, Dennis Heenan, Andrew Coates and our very own Don Saladino. The focus of the discussion was on nurturing the business side of the fitness industry and connecting with potential followers and clients. Each contributor has their own individual method of connecting with their audience and offer his or her thoughts on the best ways to create engagement and long term relationships that move their business forward. Another commonality is the ability to reach out to others for help, particularly in areas where a known deficiency may exist. Identifying both the constraints and opportunities facing a business is an essential step for developing an overall strategic plan and following through on the implementation side. We hope this discussion helps to motivate and guide others to making enhancements to their business.

In Episode 146, Don and Derek have a serious talk about how their training has evolved as they have aged, particularly as it relates to weightlifting and resistance training. Younger athletes and individuals are able to lift heavy weight more frequently for many reasons. Not only do they tend to have more time available to dedicate to exercise, they also have more supple and resilient bodies that can handle just about any training load and intensity. As you age, you find that you have to be more careful about both exercise selection, but also how much and how often you place a load on your body. While many of us have been brought up in a culture of lifting free weights with barbells and dumbbells, there are good reasons for shifting your exercise selection to alternative methods of training muscle and building hypertrophy. We discuss use of weight machines, banded exercises, plyometrics, throws and explosive running activities. Many of these alternative methods of training can provide the same benefits without the same wear-and-tear on the body as traditional weightlifting. Understanding how to choose the right exercises for the right time of your life can have a beneficial effect on your overall health and wellness in later life.

In Episode 145, we are fortunate to be joined once again by John Callery, who has since retired from the DEA and is now working in the field of school safety. John is the Director of School Safety Operations for Surefox North America and will be presenting at an upcoming International School Safety Institute Symposium on April 19-20, 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada. In our interview with John, he discusses all of the major steps required to make our schools safer. This includes comprehensive education initiatives for all key stakeholders, site evaluations using Hazardous Vulnerability Assessments, and a review of digital leakages to ensure that all potential threats via social media platforms have been monitored to determine possible offenders. John maintains that school shootings are a problem that is not isolated to any one socio-economic group or geographic location and that everyone needs to take measures to prevent them from occurring. Mr. John W. Callery has over 35 years of law enforcement experience and began his law enforcement career in 1984 as a Police Officer in the United States Air Force (USAF) for six years. For four of those years, he was detailed to the prestigious USAF Presidential Honor Guard at Bolling AFB, Washington, D.C., serving then President Ronald Reagan. Mr. Callery continued his law enforcement career as a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Special Agent in 1992, initially assigned to the DEA Los Angeles Field Division (LAFD). Mr. Callery received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Public Administration from the University of Maryland and a Master's of Science in Counterterrorism-WMD from the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in 2007. He also holds a Master Certificate in Conflict Management from the University of Notre Dame's Mendoza School of Business. More recently, as the Special Agent in Charge (SAC) of the San Diego Field Division (SDFD), John led the men and woman of the SDFD in concentrating on the opioid overdose death investigations, fentanyl laced drugs, Mexican Cartel operations and the enduring scourge of methamphetamine trafficking in the region.Mr. Callery is a professional public speaker and has conducted hundreds of lectures around the world on a myriad law enforcement and counter terrorism topics.

In Episode 144, Don and Derek begin their visit by discussing the recent medical incident that occurred in the NFL with the Buffalo Bills player, Damar Hamlin. Hamlin went into cardiac arrest immediately after making a tackle and had to be resuscitated by medical staff using CPR and an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). Fortunately, Hamlin has made a fabulous recovery from the event and is gradually returning to normal life. However, it does lead into a greater discussion of the health and welfare of professional athletes, who are being paid to provide a service to an organization. Should the owners of professional sports teams monitor the activities of paid athletes on an ongoing basis to not only ensure that performance is maintained, but also the health and safety of athletes is maximized? If an owner is paying over $100 million for a player's contract, does that give them a right to restrict harmful activities away from the training facility and competition arena, as well as promote positive choices for that athlete? These are all pertinent questions in this age of high-speed, high risk and high stakes pro sport.The D&D Fitness Radio podcast is available at the following locations for downloadable audio, including: iTunes – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/d-d-fitness-radio-podcast/id1331724217 iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/dd-fitness-radio-28797988/ Spreaker.com – https://www.spreaker.com/show/d-and-d-fitness-radios-show Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/5Py2SSPA4mntNwYRm0Opri You can reach both Don and Derek at the following locations: Don Saladino: http://www.DonSaladino.comTwitter and Instagram - @DonSaladinoYouTube - http://www.youtube.com/donsaladino Derek M.

In Episode 142, we engage Dr. Nick Nwabueze on the issue of healthcare and fitness.

While many in the field treat symptoms in a reactive manner, Dr. Nick is adamant that a large proportion of these medical issues could be resolved with appropriate preventative measures related to diet and exercise. However, many doctors are not equipped to recommend nutrition and fitness protocols to their patients to avoid negative health outcomes. Dr. Nick has taken the necessary steps to ensure that all of his patients have the best combination of dietary, exercise and wellness prescriptions, combined with his medical expertise to set themselves up with best chance at healthy outcomes. Dr. Nick Nwabueze is a board-certified Family Medicine physician. He completed medical school at the Ohio State University College of Medicine and finished his internship and residency at Adventist Hinsdale Hospital in Illinois.

Episode 132 explores the adoption of sprinting as a means of developing running abilities, as well as supplementing a comprehensive fitness program through the development of strength, power and elasticity. Most people associate a running-based fitness program with long distance running, where individuals are preparing for a marathon or a 10km race. While many people use long distance running as a primary means of exercise, others just can't find pleasure or success with long runs and the fatigue associated with such an undertaking. Sprinting is a great alternative for people who want to incorporating running into their fitness program, without having to deal with the grind of the long run. And, sprinting offers other benefits including total body strength development, lean muscle gain and a general feeling of athleticism. Even though most people haven't sprinted since grade school, it is a credible fitness strategy to build overall health, fitness and resiliency.

In Episode 129, we sit down with Don's long-time training partner, Anthony Jacobs, who we affectionally refer to as “Tone”. Don and Tone discuss their complex relationship that started in the gym.

The film is called “Respect the Jux” and premiered this month and numerous streaming networks.From writer and director G. C. Goba is the film adaptation of the celebrated urban crime thriller, "Respect The Jux". "Respect the Jux" is the age old struggle between the good, the bad, betrayal, love, and success. By any means.

In Episode 125, Don and Derek discuss the extreme scenarios where your fitness could be called into question. When you find yourself watching images of wartime conditions and citizens being displaced by battle, it makes you wonder if you are both physically and mentally fit to survive and thrive in those types of circumstances. We discuss an approach to fitness that challenges individuals well beyond the need to improve body composition, basic strength and aerobic conditioning. Does it make you ask questions about whether or not you are training hard enough to prepare yourself for worst-case scenario circumstances? Hopefully, none of us will have to prepare for wartime conditions. But it does make you think about preparing for the future in a more pragmatic and comprehensive manner, as we never know what's around the corner in these times.The D&D Fitness Radio podcast is available at the following locations for downloadable audio, including: iTunes – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/d-d-fitness-radio-podcast/id1331724217iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/dd-fitness-radio-28797988/Spreaker.com – https://www.spreaker.com/show/d-and-d-fitness-radios-showSpotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/5Py2SSPA4mntNwYRm0OpriYou can reach both Don and Derek at the following locations: Don Saladino: http://www.DonSaladino.com Twitter and Instagram - @DonSaladino YouTube - http://www.youtube.com/donsaladino Derek M.

In Episode 013, I sit down with a long-time friend, Drew Mitchell, to discuss the importance of physical activity and overall physical literacy amongst our youth. Living through a global pandemic the past year has amplified the concerns around both physical and mental health. Physical activity has declined while mental health issues have increased. We identify some of the key environments for promoting physical literacy and discuss the importance of working with schools for providing resources and programming around fitness, play, sport and general physical activity. Drew also points out that the competitive sports model isn't for everyone, and may only serve a small minority of kids, while alienating the larger youth population. Resources must be provided a multiple levels, reaching teachers, coaches, parents, recreation centers, sport organizations and kids. COVID-19 has made it difficult to implement a lot of these programs in person, but has also created other opportunities for disseminating useful resources for all groups.Drew Mitchell is the Director of Physical Literacy for the Sport for Life Society and works as a consultant focused on the development of physical literacy at the community level and promoting the Canadian Sport for Life Movement. He is a graduate of Simon Fraser University with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. Drew has worked extensively in the sport system as an educator and developer of programs for the past 19 years. He managed Sport Technical and Performance Services for viaSport BC and was the Manager of Science & Medicine programs for SportMedBC where he worked with over 50 different sports at the local, provincial and national level. He is also a past member of the Canadian National Canoeing Team and the former Health & Lifestyle Coordinator at the Downtown Vancouver YMCA.

In Episode 012, I had the pleasure of meeting up once again with Fergus Connolly to discuss his thoughts on education and learning in the field of sport performance and, quite honestly, any field in modern times. We discuss the traits of great leaders and mentors, and the importance of communication and critical thinking. But having good teachers is not enough. A reduction in opportunities for social interaction in educational settings has also been a problem for young people in the last few years, with students having less one-on-one opportunities with teachers and mentors. When teachers have an opportunity to spend quality time with students and apprentices, more than just information will be passed on and consumed. Within organizations, there is also a need to improve social interactions amongst practitioners to enhance their overall synergy as a performance and medical team. Sometimes these organizations need a professional consultant external to their team to come in and facilitate better communication and improved efficiency internally, taking advantage of the expertise already present within an organization. And, finally, organizing your own teaching materials into a presentation or a course forces you to really rethink your approach and examine your philosophy in a critical manner. In a way, it is an internal knowledge audit that all of us should do on a regular basis.Dr. Fergus Connolly is one of the world's leading experts in team sport and human performance. His highly acclaimed book Game Changer is the first blueprint for coaches to present a holistic philosophy for winning in all team sports. Fergus is the only coach to have worked full time in every major league around the world. He helps teams win at the highest level with the integrated application of best practices in all areas of performance.
