Podcasts about Individualization

In this episode of the Supporting Champions Podcast, I'm joined by the brilliant Kate Spilsbury—a former colleague, friend, and leading performance physiologist. Kate's journey from nutrition to physiology is both inspiring and instructive, and I couldn't be more thrilled to welcome her to the show. We explore the critical moments in athlete preparation—particularly tapering and peaking—and why getting them right can lead to breakthroughs or breakdowns in performance. Drawing on her experience in both British athletics and now high-performance sport in Australia, Kate shares deep insights into how training systems compare, how to support athletes through the nerves of tapering, and how individualized approaches are key to unlocking potential. This conversation is rich with reflections from her research (including Kenyan vs. British runners), her experience leading into the 2032 Brisbane Olympics, and her wisdom on monitoring, recovery, and pacing strategies that really work.   ✅ Key Topics ✔️ Tapering and peaking for optimal performance ✔️ Transition from nutrition to physiology ✔️ High performance systems in the UK vs. Australia ✔️ Managing training loads and athlete readiness ✔️ Monitoring tools: HRV, pacing, and athlete feedback ✔️ The psychological side of tapering ✔️ Individualization in endurance and team sports ✔️ Environmental factors: heat, altitude, geography ✔️ Recovery strategies and their effectiveness

In this episode, we welcome back Nick Norwitz for Part 2 of our deep dive into metabolism, food addiction, and dietary nuances. We cover everything from broken metabolisms to the role of hormones in weight regulation, the impact of glycemic load, and the ongoing debate about fruit, dairy, olive oil, and the carnivore diet. If you've ever wondered about food science versus food fear-mongering, this is the episode for you! Key Topics Discussed: 1. Understanding “Broken Metabolism” The difference between metabolic dysfunction and metabolic perception. The role of insulin and other hormones in fat storage and hunger regulation. Why glycemic load matters more than calorie counting in weight loss. The importance of patience in metabolic healing, especially after years of processed food consumption. 2. Why Weight Loss Can Plateau Metabolic adaptation and how fat cells retain memory. How food labels can be misleading and the importance of tracking glycemic response. The role of continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) in fine-tuning nutrition choices. 3. Fruit and the Fear of Fructose Debunking the myth that all fructose is bad. How the small intestine processes fructose before it reaches the liver. The importance of context: different fruits have different effects on blood sugar. Recommendations for lower-glycemic fruits, such as berries, for those with insulin resistance. 4. Olive Oil and Muscle Health The role of oleuropein in mitochondrial function and aging muscles. How olive leaf extract might help improve muscle metabolism. The importance of choosing high-quality olive oil for maximum benefit. 5. Dairy and Cardiovascular Health New research showing that cheese may actually reduce cardiovascular disease risk. Why saturated fat in dairy is not necessarily harmful. The importance of individual tolerance—some people thrive on dairy, while others find it triggering. 6. The Carnivore Diet: Is It Right for You? Carnivore as an elimination diet rather than a meat-only ideology. How some people experience relief from autoimmune and gut health issues by eliminating plant foods. Why sustainability and long-term adherence matter more than short-term results. Key Takeaways: Metabolic health is adaptable: Your body can heal, but patience and consistency are key. Fruit isn't the enemy: Choose fruits wisely based on your metabolic health and glycemic response. Whole foods matter: The effects of food go beyond macros—consider nutrient density and processing. Individualization is key: Whether it's carnivore, keto, or Mediterranean, the best diet is the one that works for you.

Today's podcast features James Wild, a Research & Development and Speed Consultant with Harlequins Rugby Club and a Lecturer in Sport & Exercise Science at the University of Surrey. With expertise in biomechanics, skill acquisition, and motor learning, James has worked with athletes of all levels, including medal-winning teams at major competitions. He is also an author and holds a PhD in biomechanics and motor control of sprint acceleration. While many approaches exist for speed training, less attention is given to individual movement strategies. Athletes accelerate differently based on sport, movement background, and physical attributes. James discusses his quadrant system, which categorizes acceleration strategies based on flight/ground time and stride frequency vs. step length. He also covers injury trends, plyometrics, sprint technique, resisted sprints, motor learning, and more. It was great having James back—this episode is essential for anyone interested in speed training and individualized performance.

(25:00) “The field hockey players tend to adopt a bit more of a spinner type strategy where the step rate's higher, flight times lower and then with the lacrosse players it's a bit more of a, towards more of a bounder type strategy in, in comparison.” (29:15) "I think it's always useful to know their acceleration strategy. But, but that information alone doesn't mean that you intervene automatically in a specific way." (32:24) “If it was a bounder picking up repeated calf injuries during those, excuse me, during those warm up sprint efforts that they get week after week or even in the speed sessions, then we might try and get them to focus on a slightly higher step rate.” (38:30) “What I have fairly consistently found though is that when meaningful changes to those reactive strength stiffness like qualities have been made, typically through a combination of pliers and isometric work, although more along the lines of plyos, contact times typically become a bit shorter. And as a result, what you see therefore is that those player acceleration strategies often move slightly more towards bouncer or bounder strategies where contact times are short relative to their flight times.” (41:11) "Sometimes it is about trying to identify what might be relatively simple deficits from a strength perspective in an individual and going after those to change their technique as opposed to directly cuing them to do something." (57:00): “If I was gonna use sleds as a means to try and increase step rate frequency, I might generally load up heavier and there and have them sprint in a way where they're havi...

Are you tired of yo-yo dieting and struggling to achieve lasting weight loss? Have you heard about the buzz surrounding GLP-1 agonist medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide but aren't sure how to effectively incorporate them into your journey?    In today's episode, Dr. Gus Vickery and I discuss the effective use of GLP-1 agonist medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide for sustainable weight loss. He emphasizes the need for a mindset shift, viewing these drugs as powerful tools to catalyze positive changes rather than easy fixes or crutches. Dr. Vickery explains that these medications provide leverage to implement foundational healthy habits and that the key to success lies in focusing on nutrient sufficiency, not just calorie restriction.   We also discuss concerns surrounding GLP-1 medications, such as the potential for muscle loss and the risk of regaining weight after discontinuing the drugs. He shares strategies to mitigate these issues, including resistance training, adequate protein intake, and gradual dose reduction when nearing one's goal weight.   Dr. Gus Vickery is an author, speaker, and the founder and directing physician of Authentic Health in Asheville, North Carolina. He established his practice with a commitment to delivering holistic, compassionate, and evidence-based care.   Thank you to our sponsors for making this episode possible: BiOptimizers: BiOptimizers: Go to bioptimizers.com/bionat and enter the coupon code BIONAT to get 10% off your order.   Find more from Dr. Gus Vickery:  Website: https://drgusvickery.com/  Authentic Health Book: https://drgusvickery.com/book/  Instagram: @drgusvickerymd  Youtube: The Family Doctor   Find more from Nathalie: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmholC48MqRC50UffIZOMOQ  Join Nat's Membership Community: https://www.natniddam.com/bsp-community  Sign up for Nats Newsletter: https://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/i7d5m0  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nathalieniddam/  Website: www.NatNiddam.com    Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/biohackingsuperhumanperformance    What We Discuss:  04:00 Understanding the Power of Peptides 07:45 The Underlying Benefits of Peptides 12:59 Addressing Concerns about Side Effects 29:06 The Right Way to Use Peptides 30:06 Hormone Therapy and Peptides 34:12 Nutrient Sufficiency and Protein 41:17 The Impact of Fasting and Gut Health 45:33 Addressing Microbiome Balance 58:56 The Pace of Fat Loss and Patience 59:42 Pushing Through Plateaus and Delicate Nervous System 01:07:13 Managing Hormetic Stress and Resting the Nervous System 01:09:00 Choosing Carbs or Fats and Individualization   Key Takeaways: Peptides can be a powerful tool for improving body composition and metabolic health.

The tension between custom, precise, individualization and highly scalable systems in the fitness industry is STRONG. While individualized solutions are recognized as necessary for people with significant problems or goals, they are difficult to implement and scale. Implementing individualized solutions requires highly skilled coaches who can address technical aspects and soft skills. Scaling individualized solutions is challenging due to the time and effort required. As a result, many people turn to systematized approaches that can be more easily implemented and scaled. However, these approaches may not provide the exact solution that individuals need. So what's a person to do? How can coaches make the greatest impact AND make a living? Let's talk about it --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/feel-strong/support

Summary In this conversation, Meli and Liv discuss the concept of unity and whether we are all one. They explore the idea of a liminal space, where we are both individuals and part of a larger whole. They discuss the positive effects of embracing unity, such as a sense of belonging and interconnectedness. However, they also highlight the potential negative effects of bypassing individual experiences and boundaries in the name of unity. They emphasize the importance of finding a balance and recognizing the power of choice in navigating the concept of unity. In this conversation, Meli and Liv discuss the difference between healthy boundaries and distorted boundaries. They emphasize the importance of understanding and setting boundaries that are authentic and not fear-based. They also explore the concept of separation and unity, highlighting that both are necessary and can coexist. They encourage individuals to embrace their individuality while also recognizing their interconnectedness with the collective. They stress the importance of integrity and being true to oneself, rather than blindly adopting ideas or concepts. Overall, the conversation promotes a balanced approach to personal growth and collective harmony. Keywords unity, liminal space, individuality, interconnectedness, boundaries, bypassing, choice, boundaries, healthy boundaries, distorted boundaries, separation, unity, individuality, interconnectedness, integrity, personal growth, collective harmony Takeaways The concept of unity suggests that we are all connected and come from the same source. A liminal space allows for the paradox of being both individuals and part of a larger whole. Embracing unity can bring a sense of belonging and interconnectedness. Bypassing individual experiences and boundaries in the name of unity can have negative consequences. Finding a balance and recognizing the power of choice is important in navigating the concept of unity. Understanding the difference between healthy boundaries and distorted boundaries is crucial for personal growth and healthy relationships. Separation and unity are both important and can coexist. Embracing individuality while recognizing interconnectedness with the collective is key. Integrity is essential in navigating personal growth and adopting ideas or concepts. Being true to oneself and avoiding blind conformity is important. Balancing personal growth and collective harmony requires embracing both individuality and interconnectedness. Setting boundaries that are authentic and not fear-based is essential for maintaining healthy relationships and personal well-being. Sound Bites "We all come from one and we are here with the purpose of having an individual experience." "Unity brings a sense of belonging and interconnectedness." "Unity allows for harmonization and finding a center point." "Is separation a bad thing?" "We can best be one by being more of ourselves as individual ones." "You're not special. You are just as special as everyone else."

Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast - Episode #935. Malissa Clark is an associate professor of industrial/organizational psychology at the University of Georgia and the brains behind the Healthy Work Lab. Known for her expertise in workaholism, burnout, and employee well-being, Malissa has made significant strides in understanding the modern work environment. Her work has been featured in top journals like the Journal of Applied Psychology, the Journal of Management and many more. In this conversation, Malissa dove into the concept of the "ideal worker" and how this can wreak havoc on work-life balance. We talked about how the pandemic has changed our approach to work, pushing the need for flexibility and remote work options into the spotlight. She shared insights on how implementing changes like shorter workweeks and better communication practices can boost productivity and employee happiness. We also touched on the critical role of government and unions in ensuring fair work practices. Malissa didn't hold back when discussing workaholism and the rise of hustle culture. She highlighted the importance of psychological detachment from work for overall well-being and how leaders today need to manage individual needs with empathy. Her thoughts on balancing side hustles and hobbies with work were particularly enlightening, stressing that we need time for daydreaming and mental rest to foster creativity. Malissa's latest book, Never Not Working - Why The Always-On Culture Is Bad For Business - And How To Fix It, tackles the unhealthy relationship many of us have with work. In a world that praises long hours and constant connectivity, Malissa offers a deep dive into busting myths and providing strategies to break free. She explains how overwork and burnout affect both individuals and organizations, and offers practical advice on fostering a healthier work culture.

This week's music: David Usher 'St. Lawrence River'. Takeaways The concept of the ideal worker, who prioritizes work above everything else, can be detrimental to employee well-being and work-life balance. The pandemic has highlighted the need for a more flexible and adaptable approach to work, including remote work options. Implementing changes in the workplace, such as shorter workweeks and improved communication practices, can lead to increased productivity and employee satisfaction. Government regulations and the involvement of unions may be necessary to ensure fair and equitable work practices. Work-life balance is a challenge in the modern work environment, and the concept of a mandated 40-hour work week may not be feasible in the US. Psychological detachment from work is important for overall well-being and has been linked to positive outcomes such as work engagement and restful sleep. The rise of hustle culture has led to the monetization of hobbies and side hustles, but it is important to find a balance and avoid obsession. Leaders in the modern work environment need to manage individuals and their unique needs, which requires empathy and understanding. Taking time for boredom, daydreaming, and being alone with one's thoughts is important for creativity and well-being in a constantly connected world.

This week with Alex Bush: Focus on the key principles of training, such as proper form and technique, rather than getting caught up in minor details. Hypertrophy training is beneficial for individuals of all backgrounds and goals, not just bodybuilders. Patience is crucial in training and nutrition, as results take time to manifest. The gym should be seen as a place to build up the body rather than just burn calories. Individualization is key in training and nutrition, considering factors such as body structure and exercise execution. Short-form content on social media can be contradictory and lack context, making it challenging for consumers to navigate fitness advice. Coaches should prioritize serving their customer base and providing individualized guidance, rather than seeking validation from other coaches. Home gyms can be convenient, but commercial gyms offer a better environment for hypertrophy purposes and variety of equipment. When it comes to nutrition, tracking food intake and prioritizing protein are key for achieving fitness goals. Recommended supplements include magnesium, vitamin D, and fish oil, but individual needs may vary. Low-fat diets can be challenging and may require careful tracking and monitoring of fat intake. Extreme dieting and restrictive eating practices are not necessary or healthy for the majority of people. Eggs are a good source of micronutrients but should not be relied upon as the sole protein source due to their high fat content. The 'What I Eat in a Day' trend can be misleading and may not be applicable to everyone's dietary needs and preferences. Instead of focusing on exact macros, it is more helpful to use recipes as inspiration and learn how to combine different food sources. Following someone else's diet without considering individual differences and preferences may lead to dissatisfaction and lack of results. Excuses and results are mutually exclusive - to achieve desired outcomes, one must take responsibility and take action.

What's the last self-help book you read? These days, whatever life change you're hoping for, there's a self-help guru and their associated memoir eager to explain how they did it and you can too. The problem is that most of these books are written by the people for whom our capitalist society was built.In this episode, I speak with Sharon Podobnik, a seasoned executive leadership coach and former self-help fiend whose questioning of the industry led her to write her new book, It's Not (All) Your Fault: Self-Help and the Individualization of Oppression.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, Ph.D., a Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University who is a world expert in the science of emotions. She explains what emotions are and how the brain represents and integrates signals from our body and the environment around us to create our unique emotional states. We discuss the relationship between emotions and language, how our specificity of language impacts our emotional processing, the role of facial expressions in emotions, and how emotions relate to sleep, movement, nutrition and the building and reinforcement of social bonds. We also discuss actionable tools for how to regulate feelings of uncertainty and tools to better understand the emotional states of others. This episode ought to be of interest to anyone curious about the neuroscience and psychology underlying emotions and for those who seek to better understand themselves and relate to others and the world in richer, more adaptive ways.
