Podcast appearances and mentions of Mike Barwis

Katie had an idea to combine photography, film and philanthropy into a business called Fotolanthropy. Yet, she became weary of being in the middle ground of knowing the business needed to launch or the idea needed to die. So, she and her husband cried out to the Lord asking Him to help them know what to do. Less than 30 minutes after praying together, she received a phone call that changed her life. Special Guest: Katie Norris.

Mike Barwis is a strength and conditioning guru. He’s trained Olympic athletes in over 40 sports, works with pro teams such as the Red Wings and Mets, and is the CEO of Barwis Performance Centers.  On this episode, we focus on the work Mark did with Brock Mealer.  Brock was involved in a car accident in 2009 and was paralyzed from the waist down.  After 2 years of physical therapy, Brock was unable to walk. Then he met Mike Barwis.  Tune in to hear the full story.     Find out more at https://spartancombat.com/   SUBSCRIBE: Apple Podcasts: http://bit.ly/SpartanUpShow YouTube: http://bit.ly/SpartanUpYT Google Play: http://bit.ly/SpartanUpPlay   FOLLOW US: Spartan Combat: https://www.instagram.com/spartancombat/ Spartan Up on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/spartanuppodcast/ Spartan Up on Twitter https://twitter.com/SpartanUpPod   © 2020 Spartan  

Brock Mealer grew up in Wauseon, Ohio, and graduated high school in 2003. He went on to receive his undergraduate at Ohio State University. Brock spent much of his time working at a family construction company, but also enjoyed playing basketball, flying airplanes, and being with family. A tragic car accident on Christmas Eve 2007, in which a 90 year old man ran a stop sign, left Brock paralyzed from the waist down and took the lives of his father and brother's girlfriend, Hollis. He was told by the doctors that he only had a 1% chance of ever walking again. He has persevered through this situation by clinging to faith, and relying on God. Brock started rehabbing with the physical therapists at the hospital for two years after the accident. After that period, Brock was only able to move his hip and quad muscles, which allowed him to walk with the aide of full leg braces and a walker. He was still far from where he wanted to be, and God had a new opportunity awaiting him. Brock's brother, Elliott, played for the University of Michigan football team, allowing Brock to connect with their coaching staff who had offered to work out with him since the accident. After insurance had run out for rehab, he started rigorous workouts with Mike Barwis and the rest of the football strength and conditioning staff at the University of Michigan. Since then he has learned to walk with two canes, and in fall of 2010, Brock completed his goal of leading the Michigan Wolverines onto the field for their home opener accompanied with his mom, Elliott and oldest brother Blake. In December of 2012, he was able to stand at his wedding and walk down the aisle with his bride, Haley, without the assistance of canes. Currently, Brock and his wife are living in Wauseon Ohio, and has plans to help others in their own journey through life's challenges. He continues to work out so he continues to improve, as well as, share his faith, and motivate others to strive for their goals. He has since been able to walk without assistance of any kind, walking up to a half mile at a time. Join the 1% today, and face adversity head on. Brock's message is about persevering against overwhelming odds; no matter what the challenge is.

Mike Silva discusses the Mets return on the Jeurys Familia trade and why it’s not as bad as everyone is making it out to be in light of what the Orioles received for Zach Britton. Listen to his thoughts on the media tantrum, agenda and outrage over the last week as well as Mike Barwis’ role in communicating the severity of the Cespedes injury, and the Mets front office response.  Does the Cespedes injury change his mind on a rebuild? Tune in and listen.

Hi! This week the Good Fundies fellas chatted about social media algorithms and the correct pronunciations of things (06:00), the Wilpons and their malfeasance for the past 15 years (12:30), Ken Rosenthal letting them down (27:30), the Mets paying more for shorter contracts (33:00), Adrian Gonzalez's departure (50:00), how they think Dominic Smith will do this time around (52:20), if the Mets season is uh, over (58:00), how they continue to mess up player position injuries (01:15:00), and Jose Reyes and retirement parties (01:21:45). Then in the mailbag segment, they pontificate on Amed Rosario's offensive improvements (01:35:50), what one thing they wish could have burned in Citi Field's display case (01:39:30), if David Wright is Hall of Fame worthy (01:42:00), who is to blame from #LOLMets (01:44:00), if there's any chance in hell the Mets sign Bryce Harper (01:48:00), and if Jeurys Familia will be back in Queens in 2019 (01:53:30). It's probably worth the price of admission just to hear Brian's bad Mickey Callaway impersonation (01:11:00) and Roger's excellent Mike Barwis impersonation (01:13:00).

Strength and Conditioning guru Mike Barwis takes us behind the scenes of Michigan's "Rich Rod" era and the Free Press investigation of the football program.

On a very special installment of Good Fundies, Brian revealed the results of his deep soul search and discovered he isn't sure if it makes sense to be a Mets fan right now (06:50). Then Roger and Brian discussed whether or not the Mets are treating Terry Collins right by hoping he retires (25:00), the return of Noah Syndergaard (33:10), what the Mets should do with Matt Harvey (40:00), if Dan Warthen should be invited back (48:30), if Mike Barwis is to blame for all of our problems (49:10), if Jay Bruce proved he was responsible for framing Kevin Plawecki (59:20), if Rafael Montero still sucks (01:02:40), and if Asdrubal Cabrera and/or Jose Reyes will be back (01:05:30). Then, the boys try to figure out if Brandon Nimmo is Soup...or Savior (01:12:50). Note: There's some moments of static from Roger's audio. Roger also at one point says "Light at the end of the rainbow" instead of "Light at the end of the tunnel." Allergy season is rough.

NJ's own Todd Frazier hits his first HR as Yankee. 5-1 last 6 after win over Reds yesterday. Yoenis Cespedes got the hydration down now going to be a lean, mean fighting machine. Layshia Clarendon gets 6th WNBA triple double and then gets it rip from her clutches the next day. Loses 2 assists. Hot damn.

The Mets are almost 20% of the way through the season so why not open up the phone lines to see what the fans think? Mike Silva will talk about his thoughts on the Noah Syndagaard injury, the concerns with Mike Barwis, how long the team should wait to promote Amed Rosario and Dominic Smith, as well as the lack of progress with the starting staff.
