On this lively episode of Podcast Network Sandbox's “Random Fit,” hosts Wendy Batts and Ken Miller dive into an unexpectedly trendy topic: the health, fitness, and environmental benefits of seaweed. Inspired by Wendy's son's curiosity at the grocery store, the duo unpacks everything you never knew you wanted to know about this ocean-grown superfood. Wendy and Ken kick things off by discussing seaweed's booming industry—did you know seaweed farming is growing at 7% annually and requires no pesticides or fresh water? Ken brings his personal experiences to the table, sharing his love for seaweed salad and its popularity across Asian cultures, while Wendy, ever the skeptic, admits she's still on the fence with the flavor. Beyond the taste debate, the co-hosts highlight seaweed's impressive nutritional profile. Rich in vitamins A, C, E, K, and B-complex, as well as vital minerals like calcium and magnesium, seaweed offers much more than a crunchy snack. The conversation explores its cardiovascular, digestive, and metabolic benefits, making a compelling case for fitness professionals and health enthusiasts alike. But it's not all rainbows: Ken cautions listeners to be mindful of sourcing due to potential ocean contaminants. Plus, they share practical tips and meal ideas for integrating seaweed into your diet—whether you're a foodie or a reluctant first-timer. Tune in for a fun, informative journey that might make you rethink your next snack run—and discover why seaweed might just deserve a place in your healthy lifestyle toolbox!

From the Streets to Significance: Ken's Incredible Journey of Redemption In this powerful episode, I sit down with Ken—a remarkable individual whose life journey redefines perseverance, transformation, and the human spirit. Born into hardship as the son of a teenage runaway and a pimp in New York City, Ken's early years were marked by instability, foster care, and adoption. Despite earning his way to Dartmouth and achieving academic success, he faced a decades-long battle with addiction, homelessness, and multiple felony convictions. But Ken's story doesn't end in darkness. In September 2024, he proudly celebrated 20 years of sobriety. Now a thriving business owner, Ken channels his energy into uplifting others and paying it forward. The Turning Point: Choosing Growth Over a Life Sentence Ken opens up about his time in prison, sharing a raw and honest perspective on the prison system, recovery, and the choices that can change everything. He identifies three common paths among inmates and the pivotal mindset shift that ultimately saved his life. During his third incarceration, Ken committed to rebuilding every part of himself—mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. That commitment led him to a halfway house, a dedicated sponsor, and the intentional decision to reconnect with society in a meaningful way. "Becoming Ken": A Story of Hope, Healing, and Humanity Ken's book, Becoming Ken, is more than a memoir—it's a blueprint for transformation. We dive into the book's core themes: understanding personal motivation, embracing pain as a teacher, and the critical importance of self-awareness and growth. Writing this book was no small feat, and Ken's transparency about the process is both inspiring and empowering for anyone facing life's hard chapters. Hard Truths, Bold Choices, and a Call to Action Ken and I also unpack the importance of courage in making life-altering decisions. He reminds us that pain isn't something to avoid—it's something to navigate. And when you face it head-on, healing becomes possible. Ken urges listeners to seek support, make bold choices, and above all, give back. His book launch is right around the corner, and he welcomes anyone who wants to learn more or connect directly.

We're back on the Cricket Matters podcast, and this time, we're going deep into throwing mechanics with none other than NASM Master Trainer Ken Miller. From near-death experiences in Serbia to world-class insights from baseball legends, this episode is packed with wisdom and laughs.You'll Learn:How baseball throwing mechanics apply to cricket. Ken breaks down how elite baseball pitching techniques—like hip-shoulder separation and ground-up force generation—can revolutionize how cricketers throw. The overlap between sports is far deeper than most think.How the lead arm acts like a shield that maintains balance, power, and accuracy. “Bite the burger” becomes your new mental cue for form.How many throwing injuries are due to problems in the core and lower body. A targeted warm-up and mobility work can transform both safety and performance.How to coach youth and adult athletes differently. Whether it's a 12-year-old or a 40-year-old weekend warrior, Ken shares practical drills and adaptations to get the best out of every body type and experience level.Key Takeaways:If you've got a shoulder problem, you've got a body problem Ken emphasizes that pain or dysfunction in the shoulder often stems from the hips, core, or even the feet. Effective throwing starts with a full-body check-in.Front side mechanics are a game-changer Dropping your front arm ruins your throw. Keeping the elbow up and pulling through ("biting the burger") helps maintain rotational integrity and prevents spinal and shoulder injuries.Movement quality beats aesthetics A six-pack won't help if your spine can't rotate or your hips don't move. Ken urges athletes to focus on quality foundational movement first.Elite throwing relies on disassociation The ability to separate lower-body motion from the upper body is key. Ken explains that most amateur athletes lack this and that it's critical to train for that “lag” in movement.Preparation must be individualized Everyone has different postural and mobility issues. Custom warm-ups and drills based on individual needs beat cookie-cutter routines every time.Quotes:“If you've got a shoulder problem, you've got a body problem.”“Don't train like an elite athlete—move like a human first.”“Your shoulder is only as good as your spine, hips, and footwork.”Find Ken on:Instagram: @kjfitlabFind James on: Instagram: @jamesbreese Twitter: @_jamesbreese To learn more about Cricket Matters and download your FREE copy of The High-Performance Handbook, please visit www.cricketmatters.com
