Owen Thomas officially joins the JOLF team, and we're recording this on his very first day, sitting in the van, ready for Year One PE at Holbrook School. Owen's moved down from Durham, studied Sport and Exercise Science at Loughborough, plays off scratch, and brings a serious love for the game. But more importantly, he connects with people. Coaching isn't just about golf swings—it's about communication, emotion, and leadership. Over the coming weeks, we'll see how Owen develops in schools, learns the craft, and helps young players fall in love with the game. Welcome to JOLF, Owen. Bonus section – this is absolute gold. We asked the children at our after school club what Owen needs to know to be a JOLF coach… and their answers are priceless.

n this episode of the Discover Strength Podcast, CEO and exercise physiologist Luke Carlson breaks down new research on resistance training and fat loss. He reviews a recent study published in Frontiers in Endocrinology and connects it to over a decade of evidence on how strength training influences body composition.Luke explains why the goal of weight loss should be fat loss—not just a lower number on the scale—and how resistance training helps preserve or increase lean muscle while maximizing fat reduction. He also explores the critical role of abdominal fat in cardiometabolic risk and what the latest findings reveal about reducing central obesity.If you want to understand the science behind “high-quality weight loss” and why lifting weights is essential for long-term health and weight maintenance, this episode delivers the key takeaways.Discover Strength offers free Introductory Workouts at any location across the United States.

In this podcast Brooke talks with Katherine Wilford, who earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Health and Exercise Science from Colorado State University (2006), her Doctorate in Physical Therapy (DPT) from Boston University (2009), and her Doctor of Science from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (2023). Kat has 16 years of clinical experience working with individuals with musculoskeletal pain. Her research interests include exploring the connection between sociocultural constructs and sensorimotor control as it pertains to musculoskeletal injury risk assessment. In this episode, we discuss how Kat and her team synthesized existing literature to shed light on how cultural beliefs, gender roles, and societal expectations shape movement patterns.

The episode explains how pole dancers can get stronger using progressive overload, defined as gradually increasing training stress so the body adapts during rest and the same demands become easier over time. It outlines adaptation timelines: neurological and cardiovascular changes can occur quickly (sometimes within a session for neuro drills), noticeable strength gains typically appear after about 3–6 weeks, connective tissue (tendons/ligaments) adapts around the 3-month mark, and bone density changes occur closer to 6 months. Rosy emphasizes easing back into training—especially after a break or postpartum—avoiding self-punishment, and prioritizing rest because adaptation happens during recovery. It describes ways to increase load for pole and bodyweight training: increase training frequency while keeping at least 1–2 rest days per week, increase repetitions, use time-based conditioning like a “pole treadmill” (repeated climbs/descents for time), increase resistance via weights/bands or by selecting harder bodyweight progressions, and use isometrics by holding longer or increasing tension. It notes that muscle damage is not necessarily required for positive adaptation and references Felipe Damas' work (primarily in hypertrophy research), while clarifying the focus is strength training rather than bodybuilding. The episode also explains that the body responds to chronic life stress similarly to training stress, which can hinder strength gains, and encourages stress reduction and enjoyable movement.Citations:SELYE H.

Send a textIn episode #174 we discussed Dr. Jose Areta's latest research, including:How energy deficits influence muscle protein synthesis and qualityThe role of mitochondrial proteins and their upregulation during energy restrictionPractical implications for timing and periodization of caloric deficits in training cyclesHormonal signals and their interaction with muscle adaptation during energy deficitsAssociate Professor Dr. José L. Areta is a leading scholar in Exercise Metabolism and Nutrition in the School of Sport and Exercise Sciences at Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU). His research investigates how nutrition and exercise interact to influence both performance and health. He focuses on the timing and composition of macronutrients — carbohydrates, proteins, and fats — and how they affect training adaptation. José also examines the role of dietary supplements in optimizing athletic performance, as well as the endocrine and metabolic consequences of energy restriction, particularly low energy availability. He has contributed influential studies on how severe calorie deficits combined with exercise can alter muscle quality and metabolism. José's work links cellular-level changes in muscle to practical nutrition strategies for athletes facing weight-sensitive sports or energy restriction.Please note that this podcast is created strictly for educational purposes and should never be used for medical diagnosis or treatment.Follow Jose Areta's research: Study discussed, Endocrine, Metabolic, and Skeletal Muscle Proteomic Responses During Energy Deficit With Concomitant Aerobic Exercise in Humans: https://faseb.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1096/fj.202502384RRIG: https://www.instagram.com/jose_l_aretaWeb: https://profiles.ljmu.ac.uk/13460-jose-aretaResearch: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=8tP0vzUAAAAJ&hl=enMentioned:A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis on the Association and Differences between Aerobic Threshold and Pint of Optimal Fat OxidationCreatineBeta-alanineMORE NR Save 10% on our website with code NEWPOD10 Apply to work with us, click here: https://nutritional-revolution.com/ Interested in having your biomarkers or nutrigenomics checked?

What if the missing piece to your wellness journey wasn't a supplement or a workout… but light? In this podcast, we're talking about one of the most underrated tools in health and hormone optimization: red light therapy. Expert in the area, Ari Whitten, joins me to shine light on red light and all the ways it can boost your health and confidence long term. Ari is a bestselling author, a top podcast host, and one of the most trusted voices in the science of energy, mitochondria, and red light therapy. In this episode, we cover: Why red light therapy is a game-changer for women in midlife How it impacts your hormones, sleep, brain, skin, and fat metabolism What most people get completely wrong about red light dosing And how to avoid wasting money on the wrong devices Ari's here to cut through the wellness noise and deliver the truth—with clarity and science to back it up. Tune in here for a deep dive into all red light therapy can do for you!  Ari Whitten, M.S. Ari Whitten is the founder of The Energy Blueprint and bestselling author of The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy and Eat for Energy. He has a B.S. in Exercise Science and a Master of Science in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine. For over 30 years, he's immersed himself in nutrition science, exercise physiology, and evolutionary biology, as well as cutting-edge areas like neuroscience, geroscience, circadian science, microbiome research, and more. He hosts The Energy Blueprint Podcast, and his books, online programs, coaching, and nutritional supplement line have helped thousands of people worldwide to optimize their health, energy, and longevity. IN THIS EPISODE What is red light therapy, and how can it benefit your health?  How to make time for red light therapy in your routine  The importance of high-quality red light therapy  Different red light devices for targeting your needs in the body  The science and studies behind red light therapy  How to maximize systemic benefits of red light therapy  About Ari's book: The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy QUOTES“There's an enormous amount of poor quality devices, worthless devices, junk devices on the market that are a waste of money that won't do anything valuable.” “If your interest is combating arthritis or affecting a certain muscle or tendon injury or ankle sprain or something like that, you want to focus on the dose of light delivered directly to those tissues. On the other hand, if you are interested in general anti-aging health longevity... The bigger concern is actually the total dose of light delivered to your overall body.” “A lot of the focus is on the intensity of the light… But the other thing is: how big of a surface area is that intensity of light hitting? What is the total amount of light delivered to the tissue? That's going to hugely impact those systemic effects like the release of stem cells into your circulation.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Order Ari's book: The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy on Amazon https://theenergyblueprint.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Guide-Light-Therapy-Revised/ The Energy Blueprint Website The Energy Blueprint Podcast RELATED EPISODES  623: RED LIGHT THERAPY FOR UPGRADING YOUR MITOCHONDRIA, CELLULAR ENERGY, SKIN AND BRAIN HEALTH WITH JONATHAN OTTO 693: TIRED ALL THE TIME?

Is walking really exercise, or just something we do between workouts?In this Raw, Real, Relatable mini episode, Susan tackles one of the most common (and damaging) fitness myths out there: that walking “doesn't count.” And she's not holding back.In a culture obsessed with intensity, sweat, and punishment-style workouts, walking is often dismissed as too easy or ineffective. But science, and real-world results, tell a very different story.From clients with chronic fatigue and autoimmune conditions to high performers and endurance athletes, Susan has seen firsthand how walking can dramatically improve health, metabolism, mood, blood pressure, blood sugar, and longevity. And research backs it up.This episode reframes walking not as a fallback, but as one of the most accessible, powerful, and personalized forms of movement we have — especially when done with intention.Susan also explores how walking works differently depending on your unique biology and health type, why “no pain, no gain” thinking is outdated, and how walking can complement, not replace, other forms of exercise.If you've ever said “I only walk”… this episode might completely change how you see movement.In this episode:Why walking absolutely qualifies as exerciseHow walking lowers heart disease risk, blood pressure, blood sugar, and inflammationWhy intensity-obsessed fitness culture overlooks powerful daily movementThe science behind steps, pace, and long-term health benefitsHow walking supports mental health, mood, and cognitive clarityWhy walking works differently for different health types and nervous systemsWhen walking is enough, and when it should be paired with other trainingSimple ways to make walking more effective and intentionalRESOURCES:Find all of Susan's Resources and links in the show notes: Shop the products: http://healthygut.com/healthyawakenings (this link will provide you a special discount!)https://healthyawakening.co/2026/01/26/episode108/Connect with Susan: https://healthyawakening.co/Visit the website: healthyawakening.co/podcastFind listening links here: https://healthyawakening.co/linksP.S.

What if the problem with treating the R sound isn't the child—but the way we train it? In today's episode, we step outside the field of speech-language pathology and borrow powerful, evidence-based principles from exercise science and kinesiology to rethink how we treat speech sound disorders. Why? Because exercise science has done what our field largely hasn't: isolated what actually works using controlled trials, precision, and specificity. Speech is a complex neuromuscular skill. Treating it like flashcards and passive listening don't make sense—and they don't produce durable change. In this episode, you'll learn how five core principles from exercise science directly apply to improving the R sound efficiently: • Why “practice makes permanent” and how the 80% challenge point prevents habituating errors • How progressive overload explains why complex clusters outperform isolated sounds • Why auditory bombardment is passive and inefficient when therapy time is limited • How compound training (paragraphs, clusters, movement, literacy) creates system-wide linguistic change • Why specificity matters—and why speech therapy must look like real speech to generalize This episode challenges the status quo in therapy and makes the case for treating speech as the neuromuscular endurance task it actually is. If you're tired of plateaus, endless cueing, and R programs that don't generalize, this conversation will change how you think about treatment starting Monday morning.

This week we welcome back protein and fat-loss researcher Dr. Bill Campbell to unpack early findings from what may be the largest menopause fitness survey to date, designed to finally study women who actively train. We dive into what thousands of fit midlife women report about calorie and protein intake, hormone therapy use, and the widely felt—but poorly studied—experience of weight-loss resistance during peri- and postmenopause. The conversation also explores why hormone therapy use appears far higher in fitness-engaged women than in national estimates, how muscle quality and power may decline even before we notice muscle loss, and why high-intensity interval work appears especially promising for reducing visceral fat.Bill Campbell, PhD is a Professor of Exercise Science and Director of the Performance and Physique Enhancement Laboratory at the University of South Florida. He is also a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist from the National Strength & Conditioning Association and former president of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (where he is also 1 of 35 individuals to be recognized as a ‘Fellow' of the organization—an honor reserved for those individuals who have outstanding contributions to the field of sports nutrition). He has published over 200 scientific papers and abstracts, three textbooks, and 20 book chapters in areas related to physique enhancement, sports nutrition, resistance training, and dietary supplementation.

In the few minutes I waited to see the ball drop on New Year's Eve, I saw at least three different weight loss ads or commercials for a gym--something you couldn't avoid given that Planet Fitness was a major sponsor for the NYE event on ABC. During this time of year, you will see and hear all the ways you can change and achieve goals and resolutions. Having goals and making healthy changes is a good thing, but you can only achieve them when you are ready, not when the calendar mandates. It's also important to not take on too much at once or you will likely feel overwhelmed.Behavior change is the main focus of this week's conversation with my guest Lisa Rigau of Healthy Lifestyle Management, who is also a podcast sponsor for Uncorked with Funny Wine Girl. Lisa is a registered nurse, nutrition counselor, and community educator of health, wellness, mindfulness, and nutrition. She received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Delaware. Lisa received her Master's degree from Marywood University in Sports Nutrition and Exercise Science. And, she is a certified teacher of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction through Brown University's School of Professional Studies & The Mindfulness Center at the School of Public Health.Lisa offers us guidance on how to be successful with behavior changes and reminds us that consistency is key. She says small moments many times make change. And she reminds us that when we fall off the rails--which will happen--we can always begin again.

QUOTES "The narrative I push is that the weight room is for supplementary training to help unlock new higher difficulty scores to make gymnastics feel easy and to lengthen the career window" "I think as coaches we're nurturing an environment to unfold a challenging future that's very uncertain" "Training happens around high days being high, low days being low all based on gymnastics apparatus bias" "A lot of incline press that correlates really well to a lot of what gymnasts do on the parallel bars and the pommel" "I think there's some other things we can learn from gymnastics as well, the way they have difficulty scores and execution scores, I think we can gamify training that way to build … junior development with a novel scoring system that the athletes buy into" SHOWNOTES 1) From small town NSW to the Australian Institute of Sport 2) What does strength & conditioning for elite gymnastics look like? 3) Unlocking the physical qualities that drive gymnastic skill development 4) How context, relationships and content influence coaching philosophy 5) Challenges in the Australian gymnastics' environment 6) A typical training week for elite gymnasts and “building the armour” 7) Using gymnastics to gamify training and the normalization of risk with gymnastics PEOPLE MENTIONED Stephen Bird Haydn Masters Tom Tombleson Simon Cron Julian Jones Stephen Smith Ben Serpell Stephen Larkham Christian Bosse John Mitchell

Nike says this new "brain-first" shoe can unlock focus and performance but does the science hold up, or is it just brilliant marketing?   In this episode of the The MOVEMENT Movement, Steven Sashen speaks with Courtney Conley, Jay Dicharry, Dr. Irene Davis, and Dr. Emily Splichal who break down Nike's new sensory-focused shoe and the bold claims behind its "mind tech," from two-point discrimination to "amplifying" what your feet feel. The conversation challenges whether thick cushioning and widely spaced pods can truly enhance sensory input — and why novelty and instability can be mistaken for real performance gains. You'll also hear the bigger takeaway: how to think about foot strength, sensation, and movement so you're not buying a shortcut that quietly makes you weaker.   Key Takeaways: → How Nike's two-point discrimination explanation doesn't match the large, spaced pods on the shoes. → How Nike's design appears to ignore the toes, which is a major sensory area. → Why the thick, soft cushioning may mute sensation, contradicting Nike's claim. → Why claiming a shoe has both barefoot benefits and more protection is misleading. → How Nike's creation of a "minimalist shoe" sparks mainstream awareness of foot sensory science and education.   Courtney Conley is a chiropractic physician specializing in foot and gait mechanics. She holds a B.A. in Kinesiology from the University of Maryland, as well as a B.A. in Human Biology in addition to a Doctorate in Chiropractic Medicine from the National University of Health Sciences. Jay Dicharry is one of America's leading physical therapists and a board-certified Sports Clinical Specialist. Dicharry's REP Lab is a national destination for elite athletes because he diagnoses and rebuilds injured endurance athletes. Dr. Irene Davis is the founding Director of the Spaulding National Running Center, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Harvard Medical School. Dr. Davis received her Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from the University of Massachusetts, and in Physical Therapy from the University of Florida.

Dr. Kathleen Martin Ginis is a Distinguished University Scholar and a Professor in the Department of Medicine (Division of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation) and in the School of Health and Exercise Sciences at The University of British Columbia. She holds the Reichwald Family Chair in Preventive Medicine and is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences, the Canadian Society for Psychomotor Learning and Sport Psychology, and as is an International Fellow of the National Academy of Kinesiology. The focus of Dr. Martin Ginis's research is placed on understanding and changing physical activity behaviour, particularly among people living with spinal cord injury. She is deeply committed to knowledge translation; specifically, the development and implementation of evidence-based best-practices to improve health and well-being among people with disabilities. By example, Dr. Martin Ginis spearheaded the formulation and knowledge translation of scientific exercise guidelines for adults with spinal cord injury. These guidelines have been translated into nearly 20 languages and are used worldwide in clinical and community settings. Part 2 Eighty percent admittedly is an arbitrary number, but it's one that most exercise scientists use as a sort of the minimum threshold for deeming someone adherent to the protocol. There were no differences in pain reduction between those with neuropathic versus musculoskeletal pain, but the small ends, small sample sizes for those two groups, make it difficult to really confirm that there is no difference in exercise outcomes for those two groups. She thinks we need to look at that further with bigger samples for each type of pain. Given the pragmatic nature of the trial that we let people exercise on their own in the community, she thinks this speaks to the feasibility of using exercise as a pain self-management strategy, but with the caveat that it's likely not going to be effective for everyone. Fifty percent of people with spinal cord injury report no leisure time physical activity whatsoever. In other words, no activity that could potentially improve cardiorespiratory fitness or muscle strength. And that's not the fault of people with spinal cord injury. Factors that influence physical activity don't just rest within the person, but they rest within society.

Spine specialist, Dr. Clint Dickason shares an unusual story of a gentleman with multiple compression fractures. About Dr. Dickason Dr. Dickason, an Indiana native, first became fascinated with Chiropractic Care in 1996. Dr. Dickason was active in High School and College level Wrestling and Football. He found that Chiropractic care kept him on the playing field. His passion for Chiropractic soared when he realized the human body is a self regulating and healing machine and decided he wanted to be a Chiropractor to help others realize their God given potential for health. Dr. Dickason received his bachelors in Exercise Science at Manchester College, in Indiana. After his undergraduate studies, he chose Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, coined 'The Fountain Head of Chiropractic'. While at Palmer College of Chiropractic he joined Palmer's Rugby Club as an active player and became president of the club. Dr. Dickason met his wife Mindy while attending Palmer College, as she was completing her degree in Chiropractic Technology. After graduation Dr. Dickason and Mindy decided to move to Colorado in order to be close to family and search for a community in which to raise their newly developing family. They found and fell in love with Castle Rock. Dr. Dickason brings more to the table then traditional Chiropractic. He also completed extra studies in Clinical Neurology from the Carrick Institute of Post-Graduate Studies, is knowledgeable in 20 Chiropractic techniques including Cox Technic.

This week on the Science for Sport Podcast, Richard Graves is joined by Brian Roy, a strength and conditioning coach who has spent the past decade working at the sharp end of action and lifestyle sports, including Olympic BMX Freestyle. BMX Freestyle is still a relative newcomer to the Olympic programme, but its physical demands, injury risks and performance challenges are unlike almost any traditional sport. In this episode, Brian shares his unconventional journey into elite sport, from personal training and postgraduate study to travelling the world with BMX athletes on the global stage. Together, Richard and Brian explore what it really takes to prepare athletes for a sport defined by explosive power, aerial skill, high-impact landings and constant travel. Brian offers a refreshingly honest perspective on athlete buy-in, bespoke programming, and why traditional strength testing and rigid systems don't always transfer to non-traditional sports. This is a fascinating conversation for sports scientists, strength and conditioning coaches, and anyone interested in how performance support adapts when the sport doesn't fit neatly into a textbook. In this episode you will learn * The unique physiological and biomechanical demands of BMX Freestyle competition * How to prepare athletes for repeated 60-second, maximal-effort runs across a full competition day * Why traditional strength testing and gym-based metrics don't always translate to action sports * How Brian adapted training around constant travel, limited gym access, and athlete preferences * Practical strategies for building resilience and reducing injury risk in high-impact sports * Why athlete buy-in often comes from listening, adapting, and being present rather than enforcing systems * How emerging video and motion-analysis technology could shape the future of training in BMX Freestyle and similar sports About Brian Roy Brian Roy is a strength and conditioning coach with over 10 years' experience working in action and lifestyle sports. He holds a Master's degree in Kinesiology and Exercise Science and is currently undertaking further postgraduate study in Applied Sports Science Analytics. Brian has worked closely with elite BMX Freestyle athletes on the international stage, including those competing at the Olympic Games, and has developed a reputation for adaptable, athlete-centred training approaches. His work focuses on performance, resilience, and real-world transfer rather than rigid adherence to traditional testing models. Brian regularly shares insights from his work on LinkedIn and Instagram, where he discusses training philosophy, emerging technology, and lessons learned from working in non-traditional sports environments.

Hate the gym/anxiety keeping you sidelined this NYE? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April hacks sustainable fitness for neurodivergent young adults with PJ Glassey, Exercise Science grad (1989), X Gym founder (1998), anti-aging/Alzheimer's expert (59 but looks 39), and Brain Type Test creator. PJ's 21-min workout (2x/week = 7 hrs traditional) tones/defines safely without bulking—invented from client experiments/research, now with Xercise App/online training since 2017. Key insights: Gym aversion fix: Quick/safe method (slow reps/holds for full fatigue—e.g., 7-10 sec pushups, 30-90 sec failure); focus/meditation trains PFC (reps like distractions in beginners). Motivation/discipline: 97% NY resolutions fail (unrealistic expectations); prolong via "why" questions (10-40 answers/post reminders); toward/away (e.g., avoid diabetic fate, become strong). Brain-body link: Exercise oxygenates/BDNF "Miracle-Gro" for cells/pathways; anti-aging/Alzheimer's 5 pillars (exercise/nutrition/hydration/sleep/brain training/relationships—hard ones best for PFC). ND application: Hyperfocus/procrastination? Method's focus counters (no TVs/mirrors/music); injury avoidance (controlled/form); burnout prevention (short sessions, patterns become identity). Brain Type Test: Rewires for success (custom habits/motivation); PJ's biohacking (tower running since 1987, Christian principles for business). For autistic/ADHD young adults ditching resolutions, PJ's vibe: "Change via brain rewiring—not muscling through." Free resources at xgym.com; braintype.me (test/book "Cracking Your Calorie Code").

She holds the Reichwald Family Chair in Preventive Medicine and is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences, the Canadian Society for Psychomotor Learning and Sport Psychology, and as is an International Fellow of the National Academy of Kinesiology. The focus of Dr. Martin Ginis's research is placed on understanding and changing physical activity behaviour, particularly among people living with spinal cord injury. She is deeply committed to knowledge translation; specifically, the development and implementation of evidence-based best-practices to improve health and well-being among people with disabilities. By example, Dr. Martin Ginis spearheaded the formulation and knowledge translation of scientific exercise guidelines for adults with spinal cord injury. These guidelines have been translated into nearly 20 languages and are used worldwide in clinical and community settings. Part 1 One of her objectives is to present recent data showing the physical and mental health benefits of exercise for adults with spinal cord injury. She wants to introduce exercise guidelines for adults with SCI. Starting with the benefits of exercise from a mental and physical health perspective, probably the best two areas, best two outcomes for which there is evidence are improving insulin sensitivity and cardiovascular disease risk in this population. The fitness guideline stipulates that to improve cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle strength, adults with SCI should do at least 20 minutes of moderate to vigorous intensity, aerobic activity twice per week, and strength training exercises twice per week. The guideline for cardiometabolic health stipulates that a minimum of 30 minutes of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity is required three times per week. She discussed how exercise improves well-being. She also talked about exercise in chronic pain. She described the Epic SCI trial, a pragmatic, randomized controlled trial, testing the effects of exercising according to the scientific SCI exercise guidelines on SCI chronic pain.

What if your diagnosis is not a life sentence, but an invitation to rebuild your health, identity, and purpose from the ground up? Josh Trent welcomes Dr. Ryan Lazarus, Functional Medicine Practitioner, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 788, to reveal how surviving a near death experience without a pancreas shattered medical labels, reshaped his beliefs about healing, and led him to a holistic blueprint that integrates mindset, food as medicine, trauma stored in DNA, mental fitness, connection, and purpose as the true foundations of lifelong health.

There's evidence-based training, and then there's actually understanding the evidence. Dr. Bill Evans is here to explain how exercise physiology, 80–20 training, and smart periodization translates into real performance gains for runners at every level.Dr. Evans has his PhD in Exercise Physiology and is an Assistant Professor of Exercise Science. He has experience as a Senior Scientist/Consultant at Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory. He also serves as an Assistant Cross Country Coach at the collegiate level with Elon University, giving him practical coaching experience with competitive runners. Dr. Evans is the founder/co-lead coach of The Endurance Lab, a personalized running coaching service focused on evidence-based training tailored to individual goals. His lab also integrates strength training and injury-prevention work into the mix to really give athletes a full-spectrum model.Dr. Evans never competed at the collegiate level because of a back injury, but has an impressive portfolio nonetheless: he owns PRs of 1:57 in the 800m, 3:58 in the 1500m, and 15:21 in the 5,000m.  He also recently ran a 2:37 marathon.From the lab to the track to the marathon start line, Dr. Bill Evans lives the science he teaches.

Episode #301 Mariah Prussia, Winning Childhood Anxiety And DepressionHello Health Heroes!In this powerful Episode 301 of Tim James Upgraded, I sit down with a true modern-day warrior—on and off the mat—Mariah Prussia.Mariah grew up on a farm, competed in three college sports, and earned her Exercise Science degree before spending years coaching and training others. Then at age 36, when most MMA fighters were thinking about retirement, she did the opposite—she stepped into the cage and became a mixed martial arts fighter. That mindset alone tells you what kind of human we're dealing with.But Mariah's story doesn't stop in the octagon. Today she's come full circle—back on her own regenerative farm, rebuilding soil, growing real food, and living in alignment with nature. She's also an adjunct professor, personal trainer, motivational speaker, and the founder of a non-profit that teaches kids how to grow food, forage, make their own tinctures, and become stewards of the land.What blew me away is that she's helping turn this hands-on, nature-based program into a national curriculum for 6th–8th graders—giving kids practical tools to lose weight, reduce anxiety and depression, and reconnect with real life instead of screens.In this episode we dig into:How farm life and sports shaped her grit and resilienceWhy she chose MMA at 36—and what it taught her about fear, discipline, and self-worthHow regenerative farming and real food can transform families and communitiesWhy getting kids outside, in the dirt, growing and making things, is one of the most powerful “mental health interventions” we haveIf you care about your health, your kids, or the future of real food in America, this is an episode you'll want to listen to—and share.Enjoy the show!Love & Light,Coach TimP.S.

In this episode, I'm joined by Vidhi Shastri, PT, MS, CFMT, a gifted bodyworker and holistic physical therapist who blends advanced manual therapy with intuitive, energetic healing. Vidhi shares how deep, integrative bodywork can support new moms in their postpartum recovery—helping the body heal from pregnancy and birth, regulating the nervous system, and supporting the emotional and energetic layers of early motherhood. If you're in the 4th trimester, working with postpartum clients, or simply curious about how the body holds and releases physical and emotional stories, this conversation is both grounding and transformative. Key Takeaways from This Episode Why postpartum healing requires more than standard rehab—and what holistic physical therapy adds How the belly, pelvis, diaphragm, and nervous system work together in the 4th trimester The role of craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation, and neural manipulation in postpartum recovery How emotional memory and stored tension show up physically after pregnancy and birth Why deep, intuitive bodywork can help regulate the nervous system and support new moms' mental/emotional health How Functional Manual Therapy (FMT) addresses structural, visceral, and neurovascular imbalances What new moms can do to reconnect with their bodies and rebuild from the inside out About Vidhi Shastri, PT, MS, CFMT Vidhi Shastri is a holistic physical therapist devoted to whole-person healing. With roots in evidence-based physical therapy and extensive training in advanced manual and energetic therapies, she bridges science and intuition to support transformation on the physical, emotional, and energetic levels. Originally trained in India, Vidhi earned her Bachelor's in Physical Therapy in 2009 and her Master's in Exercise Science and Kinesiology from California Baptist University in 2012. Over more than a decade of practice, her work has expanded beyond traditional rehab to address the deeper stories held within the body. Vidhi is a Certified Functional Manual Therapist (CFMT), integrating Functional Manual Therapy with Craniosacral Therapy, Visceral Manipulation, and Neural Manipulation. Her approach is inspired by the biodynamic teachings of Dr. John Upledger and rests on the belief that the body is a conscious, self-regulating system capable of profound healing. Through her practice, Retrain Physical Therapy, Vidhi offers a deeply integrative, intuitive, and grounded style of care—supporting clients with chronic pain, trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and postpartum healing. Her work guides patients toward embodiment, awareness, and lasting transformation.
