You've done the work. You've built the career, gone to therapy, read the books. So why does love still feel like the one area where your brilliance doesn't translate?Annie Lalla is a relationship cartographer with an Honors Science Degree in Biology and Philosophy, a minor in Buddhism, and professional certifications in Coaching, NLP, and Clinical Hypnotherapy. Her work weaves evolutionary psychology, integral theory, intergenerational family systems, and therapeutic sexuality into a framework that actually works. She helps singles done with dating find their person—and couples in love resolve the conflicts that keep them stuck. Her mission: help you build a relationship that's a trampoline for your dreams and a sanctuary for your heart.In this episode, you'll discover:→ Why women are actually the visionary leaders of relationships—and what happens when they wait to be rescued instead→ The reason your partner triggers you so intensely (hint: you've time-traveled back to childhood)→ How to know if overwhelming emotions are actually yours—or inherited pain you've been carrying for someone else→ The simple practice that releases feelings that aren't yours back to their rightful owner→ Why conflict is actually a collaboration trying to happen—and how to use it to strengthen your bond→ The "WTF to MLK" method that transforms criticism into an invitation your partner can't refuse→ What your partner is really doing when they challenge you (think Michelangelo carving David)→ The one question that reveals whether a relationship is worth the growth it demandsHere's the truth: The love you're looking for exists. But it won't come from rescue. It won't come from finding someone who finally "gets it" so you don't have to feel your feelings anymore. True love is the emotional CrossFit of human existence—and it's rare because most people are chasing happily ever after instead of alive ever after. The fantasy says love should be easy. The truth says love is the highest game you can play as a human being. You have everything you need to lead.

What if the pressure you feel before a big moment isn't a lack of confidence - it's proof you're alive and engaged?Most of us wait to feel confident before we act, but elite performers know the truth: confidence isn't a feeling, it's a choice you make through your actions.In this conversation with Laura Ianello, head women's golf coach at the University of Texas, we explore the practical mental skills that separate those who perform under pressure from those who collapse.You'll learn a simple four-step protocol to recenter yourself when the stakes are high, why losing can be exciting, and how to build routines that carry you through moments when motivation fails.

What happens if you strip the 2025 CrossFit Games down to its rawest form? This podcast takes on the challenge of reprogramming the 2025 CrossFit Games—no machines allowed. No rowers, no bikes, no SkiErgs—just barbells, bodyweight, dumbbells, odd objects, and classic CrossFit tests of strength, stamina, and skill. This episode breaks down how removing machines changes athlete separation, event flow, and the overall test of fitness. We debate what's gained, what's lost, and whether a machine-free Games would better define the fittest on Earth.

Perimenopause doesn't have to mean fatigue, stubborn belly fat and training that suddenly stops “working”. In this episode, Angela sits down with exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist Dr Stacy Sims to unpack how women should really be training through their 40s, 50s and beyond - from sprint intervals and strength work to what actually happens to your muscles, joints and recovery as hormones shift. They dive into why most “zone 2” and VO₂ max advice is based on male data, how to use sprint interval training for mitochondrial health and metabolic flexibility, and why perimenopause and the first 5 years after menopause need a very different training and recovery strategy. You'll learn how to structure your week, how to periodise your year, and how to adapt popular classes like F45, CrossFit or OrangeTheory so they work for your physiology, not against it. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN • How training needs to change in perimenopause, early post-menopause and late post-menopause • The key differences between HIIT and sprint interval training - and how to do SIT safely • Why most zone 2 research is based on men, and what women should focus on instead • How to structure your week with sprints, lifting and just enough cardio • Smart ways to modify group classes for female physiology • How to tweak carbs and protein across your cycle and in the luteal phase for better recovery • The most useful evidence-backed supplements for midlife women • Why menopause hormone therapy is a supportive tool - but can't replace lifting, protein and good training Timestamps 00:00 New Science for Women's Training 04:40 Training in Perimenopause While You Still Have a Menstrual Cycle 08:10 Recovery, Morning Workouts & Rethinking the Cardio Habit 10:04 Zone 2 Myths for Women 16:59 The Moderate-Intensity “Black Hole” & Soul-Food Cardio 21:57 Sprint Interval Training (SIT) & Mitochondrial Health for Women 25:59 HIIT, Orange Theory & Making Group Classes Work for Your Hormones 31:40 Ovulation, “Power Phases” & Why Every Woman Must Track Her Cycle 35:03 Fueling the Luteal Phase: Carbs, Protein & Training 36:32 How Much HIIT & SIT Women Need in Perimenopause and Postmenopause 40:55 Periodizing Your Year for Midlife Women 43:40 Resistance Training for Women's Strength & Longevity 47:59 Supplements That Actually Support Women 53:34 Creatine, Whey Protein, Water Retention & Acne: What Women Need to Know 56:37 Menopause Hormone Therapy: A Helpful Tool But Not a Magic Body-Comp Fix VALUABLE RESOURCES A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: • Timeline – Supercharge your energy and upgrade your mitochondria with Mitopure®

n this episode of The Unbroken Podcast, we sit down with Kristin Hook for a powerful conversation about discipline, service, and finding purpose through movement and helping others. Kristin shares how her fitness journey began—what first drew her to running, how CrossFit became a defining part of her life, and how physical challenge shaped her mindset well beyond the gym. Fitness wasn't just about performance for Kristin; it became a foundation for resilience, confidence, and growth. We also dive into her path into medicine, including what motivated her to attend PA school and pursue a career where she could directly impact people's lives. Along the way, Kristin opens up about her unique professional journey—from serving in the Army as a police officer, and ultimately finding her calling as a Physician Assistant in the medical field. This episode is about more than career changes—it's about answering the pull to serve, adapting when life evolves, and staying grounded in your core purpose no matter where the road leads. Kristin's story is a reminder that being "unbroken" doesn't mean unchallenged—it means continuing to move forward with intention.

This week we sit down with longtime CFGV member Saundra Watson, who's been part of our community since 2013. Over the years, Saundra has trained in our CrossFit classes and spent time in personal training, using targeted strength work to support her passion for running and marathon racing.After a serious fall at home that resulted in an unhappy triad knee injury (ACL, MCL, and medial meniscus) — including 6 weeks of non-weight bearing — Saundra didn't just return to training… she came back strong. Since then, she's completed multiple marathons and is actively pursuing the Abbott World Marathon Majors, with Tokyo, Boston, London, Berlin, Chicago, and New York City all on the list.This episode is a powerful reminder of what long-term coaching, smart strength training, and resilience can do — at any stage of life.

Winter is upon us and the big overhead doors are closed for the season. Training as a team in close quarters indoors has led to an uncomfortable problem: stinky people in the gym. In this episode, we dive into the hilariously awkward reality of addressing the fact that some of y'all need to wear deodorant, shower more often, wash your knees sleeves, and invest in some new gym clothes. This leads to a broader conversation about the importance of self-awareness and the value of having hard conversations. Doing hard things and a culture of feedback is what we're all about in CrossFit. We've got lots of fun things lined up for 2026! Including a sweet Yeti Rambler for all our annual members and a series of challenges throughout the year to keep you tuned in to showing up and trying to level up your fitness (and it doesn't even require wearing a sash!)00:21 Addressing the Smelly Situation10:21 The Value of Hard Conversations22:49 Maintaining Range of Motion24:43 Dealing with Mortality27:21 Planning for 202643:36 Year-End Reflections and Goals

We confront the 'Inclusivity Illusion', which is the dangerous assumption that simply believing 'CrossFit is for anybody' makes your gym accessible. Alec Zirkenbach explains why most affiliates are failing adaptive athletes by default, and gives you the actionable steps to turn your passive inclusivity into actual preparedness.--Ready to your develop your coaching, advance your career, and level up your credential?

In this episode, I break down the biggest lessons I've learned this year — from the power of stillness to redefining what revenue really means. I talk about resilience, health, energy management, and why slowing down is sometimes the most productive move you can make.Key Highlights:- Stillness is power: Not responding is sometimes the highest form of response.- Energy is access: Not everyone deserves immediate attention — or any attention.- Hustle isn't the solution: You can't out-earn the conversations you're avoiding.- Revenue ≠ resolution: Money helps, but it won't fix what you refuse to face.- I'm stronger than I thought: This year stretched my resilience beyond anything I expected.- Health changed everything: Showing up daily at 5 a.m. CrossFit has elevated every part of my life.If this episode hit home, send it to someone who needs the reminder that slowing down, looking inward, and choosing intentionally is its own kind of strength.

We've built entire industries around physical pain — gyms, trainers, Crossfit boxes, protocols, recovery routines. We understand the formula: rip → repair → strengthen. But emotional pain? We panic. We avoid. We rescue. We numb. We silence the truth to “protect” people from discomfort… …while pretending that's kindness. In this episode, Leah dismantles the biggest emotional lie we've been taught: that feelings are fragile and must be avoided. You'll learn: • why emotional pain is the REAL gym • the difference between kindness and comfort-seeking • why avoiding discomfort is actually selfish • how emotional resilience is built (and how it's destroyed) • the parent trap of protecting kids from necessary adversity • why teams need honest emotional reps • and how taking responsibility for your thoughts changes everything If you want to grow, lead, parent, love, and live with more honesty, strength, and confidence— this episode will give you the blueprint.

After more than three years, Marlon Azurdia returns to the Terrain Theory Podcast...and he brings with him a depth of lived experience that can only come from someone fully committed to walking the path.A former CrossFit Games athlete who famously competed as a vegan, Marlon has spent the last decade challenging every nutritional and performance assumption placed in front of him. In this episode, he shares how that journey has evolved since we last spoke: from a year as a fruitarian experimenting with the mucusless diet, to a powerful nine-day fast, to the creation and continued refinement of his framework, Phitlosophy: a fusion of movement, mindfulness, and meditation grounded in alchemical principles.This conversation is part of our ongoing series exploring diet and the human terrain, and the question at its heart: Is there one species-appropriate way of eating for humans?Or are we meant to tune our bodies like instruments, adjusting the dial as we resonate with different foods, experiences, and levels of consciousness?Marlon reminds us that diet is more than macros, labels, or ideology. It is information. It is resonance. It is a pathway to inner standing. And when we learn to quiet the noise, break pattern, and return to zero, we may finally be able to hear what our terrain is asking for.If you've ever questioned your own nutritional path, struggled with polarization around diet, or wondered how to integrate body, mind, and spirit through what you consume, this episode offers a perspective both liberating and deeply grounding.Learn more about Marlon by following him on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/marlonazurdiaphitlosophy/Support Terrain Theory on Patreon!

In this episode of the Conquer Athlete podcast, hosts Jason Leydon, Tyler Cooke, and Ryan Bucciantini discuss various topics related to CrossFit, coaching strategies, and the future of fitness competitions. They delve into the reasons behind athlete dropouts from competitions, the importance of effective coaching, and the challenges of scaling workouts for different skill levels.

After warming up, we shift our focus to the state of the tech job market, something both of us have been watching closely and experiencing firsthand.We dive into the challenges developers are facing today — especially juniors — and compare our hiring and job-hunting experiences, the impact of AI on resumes and screening, the slowdown in bootcamps, and why the industry feels different than it did even a few years ago. We also unpack economics, incentives, and business realities affecting hiring, plus what developers should be doing right now to stand out.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/javascript-jabber--6102064/support.

What if the six-week postpartum rule is more tradition than science? We take you inside a smarter, kinder approach to early recovery—one that blends evidence with real life so you can move your body sooner, safely, and with confidence. Christina shares the research on moderate activity at two to three weeks postpartum, explains why vigorous intensity may be too much for healing tissues, and lays out clear “navigational buoys” that turn the vague advice to “listen to your body” into specific, actionable signals.You'll learn why strict bed rest doesn't align with modern rehab principles and how early, tolerable movement can reduce complications and lift your mood. We walk through low-strain exercises that fit busy days—supine core work, side-lying strength, seated upper-body moves—and show how to scale modified planks and gentle isometrics to rebuild pressure control without flare-ups. For lifters, Christina explains when an empty bar might be appropriate, how to progress with tiny plates, and which pelvic floor sensations are normal versus signs to slow down. We also talk about cesarean considerations, scar feedback, and how to set expectations during the fourth trimester.This conversation acknowledges the realities of limited parental leave and the mental load of new motherhood. Instead of fear, we offer a framework that respects your timeline, your delivery, and your goals—whether that's walking with ease, returning to CrossFit, or carrying a toddler without symptoms. If you're ready to replace one-size-fits-all rules with practical steps rooted in pelvic floor health, strength training, and gradual exposure, you'll leave with a plan and renewed trust in your body.If this helped, subscribe, share with a friend who lifts, and leave a review to support more evidence-based guidance for active moms.___________________________________________________________________________Don't miss out on any of the TEA coming out of the Barbell Mamas by subscribing to our newsletter You can also follow us on Instagram and YouTube for all the up-to-date information you need about pelvic health and female athletes.

Their conversation takes a personal turn with Brandon sharing what he has done over this N orthern Hemisphere summer to get shredded, how he has leveraged his model of high energy flux in a fat loss phase to get the most out of his food and his training, the foods that he chose, supplements he takes and how he implemented rapid fat loss days (aka protein sparing days) to accelerate loss - and his approach when things got tough. Brandon normally regales us with the literature and client stories but today it is a mix of his personal practices and how this has been informed by his understanding of the research. Such a great opportunity to hear how the pros do it.Brandon DaCruz at his website https://www.brandondacruzfit.com/, and on Instagram @brandondacruz_Chasing Clarity https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-112-spot-reduction-is-it-possible-to-lose-body-fat/id1619611966?i=1000657394910Brandon DaCruz is an online nutrition and physique coach and sports nutritionist.
