“The more I use my voice, the more powerful I feel.” For Episode 046 Jason and Emily have a deep and far-ranging conversation with Melissa Urban: Whole30 Co-Founder and CEO, recovered addict, New York Times best-selling author, mother, podcast host, nature churchgoer, and rucker. From a “good kid” in New Hampshire through trauma, addiction, recovery and now an entrepreneur with a large platform and living a life of a “healthy person with healthy habits,” Melissa has eschewed perfectionism in pursuit of finding the light. And yet still has a “go hard” streak. Melissa talks about growing up in a huge, tight-knit Catholic-Portuguese family where “if you didn't talk about it, it didn't happen.” With hard vulnerability she shares about her sexual assault at 16 and how not talking about it not only didn't make it go away but led to her drug addiction. She now, after years of self-work and recovery, accepts that trauma will never be “done.”  An introvert who “liked books more than people” growing up, Melissa has dedicated her life to habit research and the reset offered by the Whole30 program she developed. She shares some of the lessons she has learned as a somewhat-reluctant business owner and dedicated community builder who tries to make Whole30 accessible to as many as who want to do it. She talks about what it is like to be the face of a brand, the challenges of building community particularly in online spaces, and how she and Whole30 have made decisions about the brand. A former crossfitter and student at Gym Jones who is an avid hiker (her church) with her dog Henry, through Michael Easter's The Comfort Crisis she found rucking and talks about what being that kind of “badass” has brought to her life.  Through years of therapy and learning to set boundaries, her recovery and decision to change everything in her life, overall Melissa shares how she found grace and empathy for her younger self -- and the strength in softness.

“What we were built to do can inform a lot of what we should do today.” Michael Easter joins Jason and Emily for Episode 041 on embracing discomfort through putting ourselves in extreme situations to appreciate what we have and find better health. Michael is known in Heath Journalism as the guy who interviews interesting people doing interesting things. For his new book “The Comfort Crisis” he went on a hunting trip in remote Alaska for 33 days to write about how the most uncomfortable, vulnerable and challenging situations reset our perspective and make us better people in our daily lives. Michael attributes his endurance and toughness to his “badass” single mom. His natural curiosity and experience traveling while young made him the guy who would go to “get the good stuff.” He likes to fully embed with experts and subjects, not just do interviews behind a screen, and laughs with Jason and Emily about living with them for a few days to better learn about rucking -- even if it meant early chaotic wakeups.  The through-line for the interview, as with his book, is the Alaska trip and the real-world lessons he brought back with him. He talks about the importance of research and listening to the experts, but also just trying things to see what works. With candor he says that his biggest challenge to date is getting and staying sober, but that from Gym Jones to the Alaskan Wilderness he continues to challenge himself in hard ways. Michael repeatedly returns to simplicity and “the Oatmeal rule” of getting back to the basics of what makes us healthy humans.  Links: “The Comfort Crisis” by Michael Easter Michael’s Real-Life Mountain Man, Badass Mom and Rucking Articles in Men’s Health “Why Humans Are Born to Ruck”  Donnie “Who We Are” Hunting Video Dr. Marcus Elliot and Misogi Learn more about GORUCK and Tribe Glorious Professionals podcast website

Andrew Tracey, Mens Health UK Fitness Editor, founder of Farm Fitness and all round training machine sat down with Chris and I before we headed to the gym to indulge in some sweaty pushing and pulling back at the start of the year. We've orbited in similar circles as Andrew so it felt only a matter of time before we sat down and press record. If you watch him on instagram his means of fitness generally involve a lot of lifting, and commitment to putting in the time, regardless of where he is, what time it is and how busy his day was. Inspired by the original Gym Jones, the facility created by Mark Twight to put in the work, we share similar visions as to what the world of fitness can be. A place to learn about your Self if you are prepared to get into the shadows and dark corners of the psyche and inquire into the capacity and potentiality of our capacity and capability. I wasn't expecting Andrew to be so gentle, and it was lovely to hear him talk about being inspired, inspiring and putting into the world his efforts in order for them to inspire others and be improved upon for the greater good. We cover his being non sporty as a youngster but possessing as he calls it “Toerag” fitness, accumulated through hours of playing, doing and being to his first job in a proper gym in Harlow Essex, a place full of doormen and bodybuilders, where you were celebrated for the effort you put in regardless of the weight you lift and then onto the downfall of the Personal Trainer, chasing the career which in actual fact spring boarded Andrew to become who he is today with the breadth of knowledge and pure enthusiasm for fitness and becoming more complete. Lifting weights isn't what it is perceived as, strength is important, it teaches us many things and shows us what we can do if we are not afraid to lose in the short term.

This episode is taken from our most recent trip to the US. Every time we go away it's a new trip with new insights and new perspectives. Increasing our awareness of the connections between the methods and ideas of the creators. Relentless in their pursuit of the creative endeavor. Their art form if you will. This was the midway point of our road trip having come from Colorado, through New Mexico and then across the mid West to Salt Lake City Utah to meet Mark Twight and Michael Blevins. For some these names will mean nothing, for others who were climbing in the 90's Marks name will ring a bell and for others who are fully in the deep end of physical culture Mark created Gym Jones. An idea and philosophy of training, constantly asking questions and testing ideas formed from the depths of pushing and suffering in the mountains. Mark met Michael through Gym Jones and these two went forward creating something purer, deeper and richer in the world of physical culture with Nonprophet, an evolving stable of mediums, from publishing and photography (Raze & Refuge),  the Dissect podcast the Fitness is Fucked symposium and where we met, the physical space in Salt Lake City. Combined and individually the mediums have the power to influence and change those who connect and are prepared to do ‘the work'. Since we first saw the zine they produced under the title Raze “a fistfight with nature” at Barbers Gym we have wanted to sort this trip out, we are listeners of their Dissect podcast and it's the perspective and opinions they take, looking through different lenses to most that piques our interest. They are defiantly individual yet share much common ground with the other vanguards we are meeting. So we arrived in Salt Lake City and sat with them in their studio and talked. We talked about the common ground we share, of creating manifestations of ideas we have had and the importance of continuously evolving our Selves and the mediums with which we put ideas out in to the world. The latter often being a point of contention for those who are comfortable in staying put and not evolving. This is highly principled non dogmatic dogma.We change over time and with the right environment we grow and that is the richness of creating and putting ideas out in to the world supported by an environment, which holds us accountable to do the things we need to do but so often put off because they feel uncomfortable. As Michael said: “We need someone to push us in the direction we are not willing to go in order to create the change we say we want.”Change, adaptation, transformation. All create discomfort, all can foster suffering but through the other side we are more than the person we were when we went in.

Mark Twight is a former pioneering mountaineer, climber, photographer, author, podcaster, and Hollywood trainer. During his climbing career, he made multiple first ascents of some of the most challenging routes in the world, and achieved the fastest known times (FKTs) on Denali and Mount Hunter in The Alaska Range using bold, innovative training and climbing methods. His lightweight, single push approach to alpinism solidified his legacy as a pioneer of the sport, and changed the face of mountaineering. Following his retirement from climbing, Twight founded Gym Jones, a private training facility where his success with professional athletes and military personnel led him to training actors for nine different Hollywood movies. He defines his current project--NonProphet--as the intersection between art and action but it is difficult to assign a title to what he does. Now he works as a writer, podcaster, speaker, and photographer. Payson caught up with Mark in Moab, UT to attempt to scratch the surface of Mark's career. They discuss radical approaches to breaking speed records, Mark's legendary 60 hour ascent of Denali, and why a balance between hubris and humility is key to achieving anything great. In the process, they realized there was just too much to talk about, and came back for round two a few months later. Part II of their conversation will be published next week.

The rise in boutique gyms gives each owner the opportunity to express their perspective of movement and fitness with the clientele that frequent the space. Stepping through the industrial garage doors at Barbers you notice that a good amount of the space is taken up with what can only be described as beautiful climbing installation. Darrens background into this world started with board sports, which led onto a career in strength and conditioning, with the goal of getting people ready to get more from their physical performance and life in general. Getting outside and putting your gains to the test. This is where the climbing wall comes in and puts Barbers firmly at the intersection of the training facility for people that are wanting to add dimensions to their practice, be they seasoned athletes or raw beginners from climbing, or another practice.This isn't the largest wall in the world but biggest isn't always best. Inspired by Mark Twight @wfmft and his, at the time ground breaking Gym Jones ideas and his latest work of RAZE and Dissect podcast (worth checking out). This is more like the underground venue that when you know, you know.
