Most people at some point experience demotivation, where they lack interest and enthusiasm about something that they have once really enjoyed. This episode #189 is for you if you have reached that point, or if you are experiencing a loss of form or a performance plateau. Today, I share an approach which is connected to goal-setting and performance profiling and often yields positive outcomes, where athletes frequently feel a lot better about their situation and experience being re-energised as a result. Enjoy! Key Learning Points On performing at your best some great questions to ask yourself include: What do I think about? What emotions do I experience? What will other people notice in my actions and behaviours? Aim to note down 25 qualities that are associated with your best performances, then whittle the list down to the 5 most impactful, that can help you turn around your form or the situation that you find yourself in. Goal setting can be an overwhelming process for some people. Use a SMART approach when creating action plans for the 5 most impactful areas.

Welcome to the Chomp Pod, a podcast that brings city and statewide perspectives to SF State news. Arman Archouniani, staff reporter, and Steven Rissotto, copy editor talk to mental performance coach Grant Parr, and Jim Afremow, Sports Psychologist, about mental health for professional and college athletes.
This week on the show I am stoked to welcome back back highly sought after Sports Psychologist and best-selling Author, Dr. Jim Afremow. Dr. Afremow has spent the past 20 years assisting numerous world-class athletes and teams in major sports including NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, UFC, PGA Tour, WNBA, as well as several Olympians. Dr. Afremow's first book titled,”The Champion's Mind” is a best seller and one of my personal all-time favorite books. Topics-Dr. Afremow's most memorable comeback story-How the best athletes in the world are able to turn a setback into a comeback-The 7 L's of the comeback code-4 C's of Mental Toughness-Improving self-talkIf you found this conversation valuable, please leave a rating, review, or share it on your social medias. Your 5 star feedback helps the show grow and bring on more amazing guests like Dr. Jim Afremow.
We ended part 1 of our conversation with sports psychologist Dr. Jim Afremow with him quoting Bill Russell as saying, “Commitment separates those who live their dreams from those who live their lives regretting the opportunities they have squandered.” Now Jim's back to share how you can develop this key attribute and other mindset skills. The good news is it only takes a few minutes a day, and that with practice, everyone can build a true champion's mind. This is what Jim has seen since his earliest days as a sports psychologist, when he saw the rise of Tom Izzo and Nick Saban at Michigan State.Connection is another “C” of mental toughness that Jim has found is essential to bringing athletes and coaches together as a unit. He then explores how serving others and selflessness are traits common to most great leaders. In contrast, Jim reveals the wedges that can drive people and locker rooms apart and undermine a team's culture, which is another core pillar of team-level mental resilience. Hear Jim share:· Why purpose and consistency are the keys to becoming totally committed · How Steve Kerr's core values fueled the Warriors' title runs· What he learned about teamwork at the San Francisco Giants· Why you should create a goal card and look at it daily· Which exercises coaches and players can use to get to know each other betterGet more insights on the mental game from Jim in his classic book The Champions Mind and on Twitter @goldmedalmind.
En el episodio # 186, conversamos con *Sara López*, una mujer risaraldense admirable, que ha conquistado ocho campeonatos mundiales, doce récords mundiales y cinco Guiness récords de tiro con arco. Para los especialistas, con estos logros no solo se ha convertido en una de las mejores del mundo sino en la mejor de la historia de este deporte.Sara es una mujer perseverante, determinada, creativa, amorosa y fuerte. Actualmente, es la mejor atleta de tiro con arco en Colombia y a nivel mundial es, definitivamente, una leyenda. Sara nunca deja de sorprender a su familia, amigos y seguidores. Ella sabe que uno de los retos más grandes en este deporte, y en la vida, es el desarrollo de la fortaleza mental. Esto es lo que ha hecho de ella una campeona de talla mundial, pero también un ejemplo a seguir en otras áreas de su vida.En este episodio Sara nos contó que a los 13 años llegó al tiro con arco porque era el deporte que su hermano practicaba. Le encantó desde el primer momento y rápidamente su entrenador notó en ella un talento excepcional. Tan solo después de 3 meses de entrenamiento logró ganar su primera copa mundial cuando nadie creía en ella.También nos habló sobre varios aspectos que ha tenido que desarrollar en su deporte y cómo esto le ha enseñado a sobrellevar otros retos de la vida. Por ejemplo, ha aprendido a generar bloqueos en momentos de gran tensión para aprovechar únicamente lo que le puede aportar; ha desarrollado la tranquilidad de vivir siempre en el presente y controlar lo que sí está en sus manos; y ha entendido que a veces puede tener malos momentos, pero esto no define lo que puede llegar a ser al final.Los libros recomendados son: la serie de Harry Potter de J. K. Rowling y The champion's mind de Jim Afremow.Cada una de las anécdotas que nos contó Sara están llenas de sabiduría y de lecciones que pueden ser de ayuda para todo aquel que la escuche. Te invito a conocer la historia de Máximo Desempeño de esta deportista increíble que es Sara López.
Dr. J once said, “The key to success is to keep growing in all areas of life – mental, emotional, spiritual, as well as physical.” Yet so often, we focus most of our time and effort on that last one. In working with everyone from college teams like Michigan State and Arizona State to NBA All-Stars and Olympians, sports psychologist Dr. Jim Afremow has developed the 6 Cs of mental toughness.In this first of two parts, he shares that being mentally resilient isn't something we're born with, but is a skill that can be developed just like a fadeaway jumper or step-back dribble. Jim also revealed that old-school notions of coaches making players run until they puke or denying water breaks have nothing to do with real toughness – it's more about staying positive and proactive in the most adverse situations. Listen in to learn from Jim:· What you can do to build your confidence up to Michael Jordan's level· How to remain composed when the game is on the line· Why self-talk is so important and how to develop it· Which techniques the best players use to keep their concentration· When it's time to flip the switch before a gameLearn more from Jim by following him on Twitter @goldmedalmind and by reading his latest book, The Leader's Mind.
You Don't Rise to the Occasion, You Sink to… Continuing our tour through Brian Cain's mental toughness fables, let's talk about another Big Idea from The 10 Pillars of Mental Performance Mastery. Remember: Brian has coached an INCREDIBLE number of SUPER-ELITE athletes and coaches. Eight UFC Champions. Four Cy Young Winners. MVPs. Olympians, etc, etc., etc. One of the things he teaches them? The fact that, as he puts it: “You don't rise to the occasion, you sink to your levels of training and habits.” Here's how his guide Coach Kenny puts it in the fable. He tells us: “‘The key is to make your habits so strong and your training so good that when you sink to your worst day, you sink to a level higher than anyone else on their best day,' Coach Kenny said. ‘It's easy to say, hard to do, and only possible if you follow the 10 pillars of mental performance mastery.'” Then he says: “'Everyone talks about raising the roof. In reality, it's about raising your basement so that you have good bad days and are better on your bad days than most people are on their good days—because you can focus better and have better habits and a more elite mindset. It's really about being the best version of you that you have ever been. It's also about not comparing yourself to anyone else but to where you were yesterday. If you can see progress—be better today than you were yesterday and better tomorrow than you are today—and just keep going baby step by baby step, you will get where you want to be.'” That's from a great chapter called “You Don't Rise to the Occasion; You Sink to Your Training and Habits.” There's a LOT of wisdom in there that we could talk about for an entire weekend workshop. For now, let's focus on a few highlights and some parallel wisdom from other brilliant teachers. First, I think of this +1 on Good Bad Days in which we talk about some wisdom from Jim Afremow's The Champion's Mind. Big Idea? Golfers like Jack Nicklaus and Rory McIlroy know it's all about “playing poorly well.” You can only do that when you have an elite mind. Then I think of Lanny Bassham and his son Troy who wrote With Winning in Mind and Attainment. In this +1 on Average vs. Elite, we talk about the fact that AVERAGE performers practice something until they can get it right. ELITE performers, on the other hand, practice until they CAN'T GET IT WRONG. Then there's Josh Waitzkin, the chess prodigy turned martial artist champion. In The Art of Learning, he tells us that we need to make our prior best our new baseline. What happens when we do all that? We raise the basement. Our highs are higher AND (!) our LOWS are HIGHER. On our worst days, we're often better than we used to be on our best days. And that's an incredibly powerful thing. Here's to raising our basement as we DOMINATE THE DAY and give the world all we've got, Hero. Day 1. All in. Let's go! P.S. Lest you think this is just a bunch of peak performance mumbo jumbo, let's remind ourselves of the ancient wisdom from one of the wisest of them all as we make sure we are building our lives on a solid foundation.
In episode 139 of Demystifying Mental Toughness I had the pleasure of speaking to the head of The Newcastle United Foundation, Steve Beharall. Steve shared his inspiring journey from being a part time football coach to where he is today. Lessons that he has learned, challenges he's overcome as well as insights into initiatives that the foundation are involved in and what the future holds. Steve also passes on some advice to the future generation of coaches on opportunities for them. Key Learning Points: Whilst as an academy coach at Newcastle United, I realised that all I wanted was to help kids with football. When I decided to take a different direction in the Newcastle United Foundation I spent the first three years of my time here working closely with my predecessor learning valuable lessons. Since I started we've gone from 65 to 240 full time staff and 60 sessional staff. In 2022, we've grown the turnover from £3 million to £6 million and expanded on programs, by 80% in the last three years. Newcastle United Foundation Case Studies NUcastle is an important part of the community and service sector across the North East of England. Whether you're a coach or a leader, relationships have to built on trust, respect and honesty. It's important to be mindful of your mental health.

In sport it is very easy to get ahead of yourself or dwell on past mistakes impacting on your performance levels. James and I go on to unpick how ACT and Mindfulness principles and tools can support you in this regard so that you can perform better under pressure. Enjoy tuning in. Key Takeaways: In psychology a lot of work is focused on capturing unhelpful thoughts and looking to change them, with more helpful and positive thoughts. Using ACT and Mindfulness is different where I teach people to attend to their thoughts and pay attention to their body. ACT and Mindfulness can be difficult to get your head around however it is very beneficial, with research backing up it's use in a range of settings. The six core principles of ACT include; acceptance, defusion, connecting with the present moment, the Observing Self, values and committed action. Mindfulness is where you consciously bring your awareness to the present moment and the here and now. Using ACT and Mindfulness can help you overcome performance anxiety and deal better with nerves. There are simple tools that can help you move on from the inevitable mistakes that we all make in sport. It is a tool that can give you a better chance to find the zone more often.

Are you someone who responds positively to setbacks, knowing that these types of situations provide an opportunity for personal development? Do you recognise that challenges are a normal part of life and welcome the fact that sometimes you may need to shake up your routines? Do you then go on to look forward to these new experiences? Or do you worry more than most people when unexpected events happen? You may hate the thought of making mistakes or failure and simply move on by keeping yourself busy, not acknowledging the event out of fear or habit. You might even fall into the trap of giving less than 100% and consider giving up on occasions? In this episode, I'll be discussing these questions in more depth sharing some resources to help you learn from setbacks that you have come across in the past. I'll also be discussing a range of examples designed to challenge your thinking. Enjoy! Key Learning Points The mentally tough person who scores high in learning orientation will be the type of person who recognises that major obstacles may mean that they need some time to reflect and recover. They will also see the big picture recognising this is a process and will result in them making relevant and desired changes. Often an athlete's view of winning and losing or success and failure can be skewed. The best in the business are not perfect they make mistakes frequently too. Are you guilty of doing the same thing and expecting different results? Getting a balance between being highly goal orientated, seriously driven, and caring too much can mean you become a worrier. It's a skill being able to park events and having a I don't care attitude. When you've invested a lot into a sport or pastime feeling sorry for yourself is completely normal. It means that you care. It's what you do next that counts.

In today's podcast episode, I chat with Dr. Jim Afremow and Phil White who have written an excellent book to be released in December 2021, called The Leaders Mind. I tap into their expertise to help you, where we discuss modern sport psychology as well as different elements of the book and link it to mental toughness. For example, we chat about a pilot, Tammie Jo Shults and how she took control of a stricken plane when there was an engine failure and how she went on to manage the situation and herself. We discuss Nic Gill the All Blacks Strength and Conditioning coach and the All Blacks dedication to continued excellence. Lastly, we talk about Donald Robertson, an advocate of using stoicism to achieve your goals. Key Takeaways include: To think like a champion in your sport you must look to get the best out of yourself. There's no health without mental health, and obviously without mental health you're not going to find peak performance. A common misconception is that you're either born with confidence or you're not. It can be developed and improved upon. Tammie's ability to trust her training and go into “autopilot”, as well as her interpersonal confidence shone through in such a difficult situation. Nic Gil and the All Blacks have a mindset to keep on learning and that they can always achieve more. In Sports Psychology we often mention “controlling the controllables” which is a stoic philosophy.

Matt Fitzgerald is author of the bestseller How Bad Do You Want It? and many other books on sports, nutrition, and mental performance. His writing has appeared in numerous sports and fitness publications, including Men’s Fitness, Men’s Health, Outside, Runner’s World, Bicycling, and Women’s Running. ======================================== Get the Book: The Comeback Quotient What’s the secret to a great comeback? Everyone loves a great comeback. In The Comeback Quotient, bestselling sports journalist Matt Fitzgerald examines the science and stories behind some of the most astonishing comebacks in sport. Why are some athletes able to overcome overwhelming odds and rebound stronger than ever—are they superhuman? No, Fitzgerald argues, their power comes from “ultrarealism,” a mental fitness mindset that allows them to fully accept, embrace, and address reality. From triathletes like Mirinda Carfrae to ultrarunners like Rob Krar to rowers, skiers, and cyclists from across the globe, Fitzgerald delves into stories that are not just compelling but constructive, laying out the steps anyone can take to rebound from their own setbacks in sport and in life. Combining gripping tales with compelling research, The Comeback Quotient will change how you perceive the challenges you face, giving you the inspiration and tools to make the next great comeback you witness your own. “Fitzgerald has been writing about the psychology of endurance performance for more than a decade and is one of the pioneers in terms of trying to take this body of research out of the laboratory and into the field for everyone to try.” —Runner’s World “The Comeback Quotient provides elite-tested mental strategies for loving the comeback more than hating the setback.” —Jim Afremow, PhD, author of The Champion’s Mind ====================== Request to Join the FREE Meredith Atwood Community & Coaching https://meredith-atwood-coaching.mn.co/ ====================== Buy Meredith’s Books: The Year of No Nonsense https://amzn.to/3su5qWp Triathlon for the Every Woman: https://amzn.to/3nOkjiH ======================= Get The InnerU Program!

The Daf Yomi from a Psychological Perspective For Mareh Mekomos Click Below אָמַר רַב חִיָּיא בַּר אָשֵׁי אָמַר רַב: כֹּל שֶׁאֵין דַּעְתּוֹ מְיוּשֶּׁבֶת עָלָיו אַל יִתְפַּלֵּל, מִשּׁוּם שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: ״בְּצָר אַל יוֹרֶה״. רַבִּי חֲנִינָא בְּיוֹמָא דְּרָתַח לָא מְצַלֵּי, אָמַר: ״בְּצָר אַל יוֹרֶה״ כְּתִיב. מָר עוּקְבָא בְּיוֹמָא דְשׁוּתָא לָא הֲוָה נָפֵיק לְבֵי דִינָא. Rav Ḥiyya bar Ashi said that Rav said: Anyone whose mind is unsettled should not pray, as it is stated: When distressed, one should not issue decisions. The Gemara relates that Rabbi Ḥanina, on a day that he was angry, would not pray, as he said that it is written: When distressed, one should not issue decisions. The Gemara similarly relates that Mar Ukva, on a day of a south wind, would not venture out to the court, for this hot and harsh wind would disturb his usual clarity of mind. אָמַר רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר: הַבָּא מִן הַדֶּרֶךְ, אַל יִתְפַּלֵּל שְׁלֹשָׁה יָמִים, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: ״וָאֶקְבְּצֵם אֶל הַנָּהָר הַבָּא אֶל אַחֲוָא וַנַּחֲנֶה שָׁם יָמִים שְׁלֹשָׁה וָאָבִינָה בָּעָם וְגוֹ׳״. Rabbi Elazar said: One who returns home from a journey should not pray for three days while recovering from the hardship of being on the road, as it is stated: “And I gathered them together at the river that runs to Aḥava, and we encamped there for three days, and I inspected the people” (Ezra 8:15), after which it is stated: “Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Aḥava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of Him a safe journey for us” (Ezra 8:21), which teaches that they rested three days before praying. אֲבוּהּ דִּשְׁמוּאֵל, כִּי אָתֵי בְּאוֹרְחָא, לָא מְצַלֵּי תְּלָתָא יוֹמֵי. שְׁמוּאֵל לָא מְצַלֵּי בְּבֵיתָא דְּאִית בֵּיהּ שִׁיכְרָא. רַב פָּפָּא לָא מְצַלֵּי בְּבֵיתָא דְּאִית בֵּיהּ הַרְסָנָא. The Gemara relates that Shmuel's father, when he would return home from his journey, would not pray for three days, as he would have to rest from his journey. Shmuel himself would not pray in a house that contained an alcoholic beverage, as the scent of the alcohol would disturb his concentration during prayer. Similarly, Rav Pappa would not pray in a house that contained small fried fish, due to their smell. Codified and described beautifully by Rambam Laws of Tefilla 4:16-17 Ritva and Rashba אמרו רבותי ז״ל שלא נאמרו דברים אלו אלא בדורת ההם שהיה לבם נכון אבל עכשיו בין כך ובין כך אין מתכוונין ומוטב שלא תתבטל התפלה: On a Practical level, we do not follow this ruling, because if we did we would never pray because we are never in the right State of Mind. Please do not give up on prayer. It takes years and years of practice to learn how to appreciate prayer in philosophy, technique and intention of the heart and mind. It is enlightening to keep in mind the adage from Michael Jordan, and apply it to prayer: “You can practice shooting 8 hours a day, but if your technique is wrong, then all you become is very good at shooting the wrong way. Get the fundamentals down and the level of everything you do will rise.” -- Michael Jordan, The Champion's Comeback: How Great Athletes Recover, Reflect and Reignite (2016) by Jim Afremow
From Notes on Jim Afremow's Champion's Mind: https://www.optimize.me/philosophers-notes/the-champions-mind-jim-afremow/https://www.optimize.me/philosophers-... “Take a minute right now to think about your performance when you did not believe a good or respectable outcome was possible but you still found a way to make it happen. There is beauty in being ugly but effective (UBE) or having a good bad day (GBD) while you are not at your finest. Keep your head in the game and grind it out.” There’s a powerful beauty in being ugly but effective and having good bad days. UBE + GBD. This is big. If we want to cultivate truly intense trust in ourselves, we need to know that we can pull it together when things start falling apart. Jack Nicklaus called it playing poorly well. Afremow tells us Rory McIlroy calls it “scrappy golf.” Step #1 to making that happen is to KNOW that you will have x bad shots per round. It’s the unhealthy perfectionists among us (*waving to my old self!*) who struggle with this the most— thinking they should be able to get thru the day P.E.R.F.E.C.T.L.Y. (but only every day) and that if they don’t, it’s a sign of something being inherently wrong with them. (Hah.) We need to hold our high standards of excellence while embracing the constraints of reality that (tragically!) we will *never* be perfect. Then... when the inevitable bad shot comes along, rather than beating ourselves up, we simply say, “Aha! There’s a bad shot. I knew you’d sneak in at some point. No big deal. Back to work.” So... How’s your ugly? Here’s to being ugly but effective and having good bad days! #UBE + #GBD!

There is far more to being a successful cyclist than pushing the pedals hard, but you already know that! Although being 'fit' is very important, focusing only on this aspect of performance would leave so much of your potential untapped. Developing an Athletes' Mindset, and what author Jim Afremow calls The Champion's Mind, is one of the most important components of performance that has nothing to do with fitness. That is why we are breaking into one of our favorite topics, Mental Skills Training and covering the book The Champion's Mind, How Great Athletes Think, Train, & Thrive in a multi-part podcast. In Part 1 Coaches Brian and Brady cover the opening chapters of the book, Afremow's "Gold Medal Performance" concept and 10 Mental Skills to help you maximize your training.

Welcome to the last episode of the Champion's Mindset series on The Impact Entrepreneur Show. Today's guest, Dr. Jim Afremow, is a much sought-after mental game coach and the author of two great books about being a champion: The Champion's Mind & The Champion's Comeback. “No one is born with a Champion's Mind gene, but there's nothing preventing us from thinking, feeling and acting like them – to be our best, and I think that's the ultimate gold medal.” Body language plays an important role in reaching peak performance and developing a champion's mindset. Your body language affects your mood, so it's not just fake it ‘til you make it – it's also fake it ‘til you feel it. Changing your attitude and body language isn't just for show. Your testosterone goes up and your stress hormones go down, so the result is that you will actually be more confident and more focused. “If you sit up straight and put a big smile on your face, it's not going to make everything perfect – but it's certainly going to help.” Socialization also has a significant effect on developing a champion's mindset. We're taught to be confident, but not cocky, and conflicting messages from society can negatively reinforce successful behaviors. In a team environment, the person with the best attitude who is working hardest might be negatively singled out. “When we start to change in different ways, or go outside the norm, and do things bigger and better than before, we get held back a little bit. Socialization really, really affects us much more than we think it does.” We start to separate ourselves from average when we work to master the things we are most passionate about. This can be in a sport, a business or something else entirely, but at the end of the day peak performance is peak performance. You'll never maximize your potential by working for the weekend. When we're pursuing peak performance, we don't receive a lot of positive feedback. It's important to realize that, when you are being tested a lot, you are on the right track. “Life is supposed to test you, it's not supposed to praise you.” In The Champion's Comeback: How Great Athletes Recover, Reflect, and Reignite, Jim explores the powerful experience of a comeback and how it relates to being reborn. Entertainment and social media can give us a skewed perspective on a champion's peak performance, but this book reveals the disappointments and struggles that go along with achieving peak performance. You can be a champion in anything you are passionate about, but it requires effort. Start acting and thinking like a champion, don't stop when you're tested and work hard every day.

We explore: the vision of a champion (and how to fuel it), what mental toughness *really* is, how/why to be ugly but effective, how to evaluate yourself (3 q’s: good + better + best), and creating sustained obsession as you take the champion’s honor pledge.

Jim Afremow is one of the world’s leading sports psychologists. We covered his first book The Champion’s Mind. This one is kinda like part 2 in which we look at how the Champion responds to the inevitable (!) setbacks faced on the road to greatness—using those setbacks as opportunities to bounce back and make a sweet comeback. Big Ideas we explore include seeing setbacks as challenges rather than threats, outperforming our contracts, practicing ’till you can’t get it wrong, and the 3 P’s of peak performance.

Veterinarian and author Dr. Ernie Ward, DVM, CVFT, talks about why all dog breeds may make good running partners, the proper way to run away from a dog if you think he or she is about to attack, the importance of vaccinations, and Lyme disease. Serena Marie, RD, shares some of her favorite unique vegan/vegetarian protein options. Featured Guest and Runner of the Week: Dr. Ernie Ward North Carolinian, University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine graduate, Dr. Ernie Ward, (who also happens to be an Ironman, certified personal coach, surfer, and fantastic dad and husband) stops by to talk about best dog running breed qualities, how to start running with your dog, and more. He wrote Chow Hounds: Why Our Dogs Are Getting Fatter -A Vet's Plan to Save Their Lives. He gives dog owners tips on how to run with their dogs: #1: It has to be the dog's idea. The dog's personality and lifestyle have to match that of a runner. Just because a breed is predisposed to running well, doesn't mean each individual dog will be an amazing runner. He's seen beagles who can outrun greyhounds by leaps and bounds. He's seen whippets that can hold their own against labradors. Short, stubby dogs might not be well suited for all climates or conditions, but don't let the breed be the persuading factor in choosing a canine running companion. #2: Start out slow and easy. Even people try to do too much too fast (which can lead to injury), so the same concept applies to our doggie friends. If you and your dog haven't been running together, start out with a short run around the block of a quarter mile. Then gradually let your dog work their way up in mileage. He has treated dogs for overuse injuries, so be aware that that could be an issue. #3: Evaluate your gear. Develop a system that works for you and your dog. Consider using the following: A handheld, short, four-to-five-foot leash (don't use retractable leashes for running—think “lanyard of death”) A running belt attachment Collapsable water bowl for longer runs—account for your dog's ability to stay hydrated and take a rest break every thirty minutes (dogs don't perspire like we do) He believes that all dogs have the potential to make great running partners. For both runners and cyclists, sometimes dogs may appear ferocious or like they're about to attack. In these instances, Dr. Ernie gives the following advice: Steer clear, and avoid the situation. Do not approach dogs. Move to the opposite side of the road or trail. Most often dogs react out of a fear response. Forward-posturing behaviors (elevated stature, erect ears or tails, hypervigilant posture) signal fear. Don't try to run away. If you do, try to seek protection like a nearby house or a car if possible. Stand still, be like a tree, and avoid eye contact. Most dogs will rapidly approach you and then stop inches away from you. If the dog tries to bite you, focus on getting out of the situation and causing as little harm as possible to the animal and yourself. Some people try to strike the dog if it's biting, and he suggests not doing so. Ninety percent of all potential harmful situations are avoidable in his opinion. What if you're running with your dog, and you're approached by another oncoming dog? Optimism bias: This is a mindset that says, “My dog is a nice dog and likes other dogs. Therefore, all other dogs like my dog.” Try to remain as calm as possible, and try not to provoke the dog. Put as much distance between you and the dog as possible. Keep your dog restrained. If you're running near swamp lands, alligators, like most reptiles are very docile. They're not looking for a fight. Accessibility: If you have access to calorically dense foods, you'll be more apt to overeat. If you have access to safe trails or sidewalks or a nearby gym, you're more likely to exercise. The same thing applies to our pets—do you have access to safe areas to exercise like a dog park? Ernie is passionate about vaccinations and end-of-life care for pets. There's been an ongoing debate in pediatric and veterinarian circles about how many vaccines are absolutely necessary. There's a concern in cats with a devastating form of cancer that is believed to be related to the rabies vaccine. This led Dr. Ernie to question the old adage of vaccinating every year for everything. He suggests making sure that your cat is only getting the distemper vaccine every three years. Ernie mentions Leptospirosis, which is a disease that raccoons, deer, and rats carry. It causes kidney failure, and your dog can give it to you. There is a vaccine that has to be administered once a year. When you visit your vet, ask these three important questions: What are we here for? Is that necessary? Why is that necessary? Lyme disease is more of a threat for humans than pets. If you're trail running, protect yourself against ticks (especially deer ticks). For dogs, there are vaccines out there. Ask your vet to explain each type of vaccine on the market. If you have a dog, this year will be terrible for fleas and ticks. If your dog is a reservoir for ticks, and those ticks detach in your home and make their way onto you, they can transmit Lyme disease. There are newer preventatives out there that will last more than a month at a time. Kari asks about hypoallergenic dogs and allergies. He says there's really no hypoallergenic dogs. Dogs shed hair and skin cells, so until we have a dog that doesn't shed those, there will always be some type of issue for folks with allergies to dogs. There are dogs that are less likely to cause allergic reactions, such as Havanese. Allergy shots are a series of injections (weekly, then bi-weekly, then every two to three months or so) that work for some people (about 50–60 percent of the time), but it's not a great solution. He founded the Association for Pet Obesity Awareness, because he saw in his clinic an alarming rate of overweight dogs and cats. About 54 percent of dogs and 58 percent of cats are classified as obese. Type II diabetes and osteoarthritis are both highly influenced by your pet's weight. Find out why Dr. Ernie will never encourage anyone to do an Ironman! He's found through experience that in his 20s, he focused on building strength, in his 30s, he began to develop endurance, in his 40s, he pushed for ultra endurance, and in his 50s, his focus is on developing a strong core (long-distance ocean paddling) and enhancing flexibility (like yoga). In his 60s, he'll start to dial things back to focus mostly on yoga and pilates. He discusses the telltale signs of overuse injuries in dogs. If you're on a run, look for sudden shifts in pace, belabored panting/breathing, limping, or refusal to continue to run. Dogs recovery considerably faster than humans, due to muscle mass and they're more adaptive to cellular injury and repair than humans. Kari asks if bearded dragons are really the dogs of the reptile family. (The Big Kahuna has a bearded dragon as a class pet.) Sometimes their environments can get too hot or too cold.

Serena Marie, RD Serena Marie, RD, answers listeners' questions about building muscle by using vegan or vegetarian protein sources. Even if you are a meat eater, it's always nice to have variety in your diet! Serena shares some unique ideas, such as the following: Powdered peanut butter like PB2: Because the manufacturers have removed the fat from it, it's now a food where most of the calories are coming from protein instead of fat. While peanuts are a healthy source of fat, if you're someone who doesn't have a problem getting enough fat but do have a tough time getting enough protein, this could be a good option for you. Warning: It has added sugar, so consider the Jiff powdered peanut butter. Add it to smoothies, oatmeal, desserts, cottage cheese, and so on. Hemp seeds: Most of the calories come from fat, but for 3 TBSP, you get 11 grams of protein. It has all nine of the essential amino acids (the amino acids that our bodies cannot produce on their own). Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. You need to eat them in order to get them into your body, and your body needs these amino acids. They work almost like a puzzle to fit together and build protein. Edamame: Add this to stir-frys with rice, quinoa, or with vegetables. Most of the calories are from protein and fat. One cup has about 17 grams of protein. It also has the essential amino acids. Buy organic if you can so that it's not genetically modified. Add some salt if you're looking for a salty snack. Seitan: This is a gluten-containing source of protein. In terms of alternatives to meats like tofu and tempeh, seitan is by far the highest in protein and lowest in fat and carbohydrates. Three ounces of seitan has 18 grams of protein. You can make gluten-free versions using buckwheat. After a hard workout or run, you want to ideally eat 20–30 grams of protein, and these four options are something new or different to try! Kari asks how often Serena likes to eat soy personally. If you're eating it from a whole-food source, you can't consume so much phytoestrogen (a molecule that mimics estrogen) to cause hormonal disruptions or damage. If you're consuming it in a processed form (soy milk, soy protein bars, soy nuggets), the protein, fat, and fiber are stripped, and you're apt to consume more of it. In that case, she recommends staying away from it, because your body can't regulate the amount of phytoestrogen you're being exposed to. Kari mentions that soba noodles are very expensive and asks listeners if they know why. Kari also talks about sundaes that she makes that include defrosted strawberries and blueberries, chia seeds, hemp seeds, and sometimes some Navitas cacao or coconut, and she thinks that might be another good alternative as a yummy protein source. Serena answers why omega-6s aren't the greatest. The body needs a balance of omega-3 fatty acids and omega-6 fatty acids. Omega-3s are the anti-inflammatory fats, and omega-6s are the pro-inflammatory fats. We need to go out of our way to eat omega-3-rich foods. Examples include tuna, salmon, seaweed or kelp, anchovies, nuts (macadamia and walnuts), grass-fed, fatty meat, and grass-fed pastured yogurt or butter.. Gratitude Jar (Woot! Woot!) This week, Kari is grateful for the opportunity for the first time to eat a grass-fed burger at a restaurant called Harvest Seasonal Grill & Wine Bar. She's also grateful for Siggi's 4% yogurt. Serena is grateful for experiencing her first Passover. She made some great memories with her friend Jane's family and got to try gefilte fish. She also found the hidden afikoman, which is is a half-piece of matzo which is broken in two during the early stages of the Passover Seder and set aside to be eaten as a dessert after the meal. Kari announces the three upcoming books for the TRL Book Club! May 2016 The Champion's Comeback: How Great Athletes Recover, Reflect, and Reignite by Jim Afremow, PhD June 2016 Super Mind: How to Boost Performance and Live a Richer and Happier Life through Transcendental Meditation by Norman E.
