Zone 2 training is often labeled as “fat burning,” but what does that actually mean in real-world performance? Should athletes, hunters, and endurance enthusiasts be eating more fat during long efforts? Or is the body primarily relying on stored energy systems regardless of what you eat? In this episode of the Valley to Peak Nutrition Podcast, we break down one of the most misunderstood concepts in endurance nutrition: fat as fuel. We explore whether the body is using dietary fat or stored body fat during low-intensity exercise, how carbohydrates still play a critical role, and why it's never as simple as “fat vs carbs.” You'll learn how energy systems actually interact during Zone 2 training, multi-day efforts, and long-duration mountain objectives—and why relying on a single fuel source can limit performance. If you've ever wondered how to properly fuel Zone 2 training, ultras, backcountry hunts, or long mountain days, this episode will give you the clarity you need.   Download the cheat sheet Check out Valley to Peak and other Resources.  In this episode: What “fat as fuel” actually means in Zone 2 training The difference between stored body fat and dietary fat How the body actually breaks down and uses fat for energy Why fat and carbohydrates are always used together (not separately) The role of intramuscular triglycerides in endurance performance Why muscle glycogen still matters—even at low intensities The real timeline for dietary fat to become usable energy Why higher intensity changes everything about fuel usage How carbohydrate supports fat metabolism (“fat burns in a carbohydrate flame”) Why calorie balance—not macronutrient manipulation—drives fat loss Key Takeaways: Zone 2 training is not 100% fat-burning—it's a blend of fat and carbohydrate use Most fat used during exercise comes from stored body fat, not what you just ate Dietary fat takes hours to become usable fuel during activity Carbohydrates are essential for higher intensity and mental performance Fat and carbs work as a system—not competing fuel sources Great listen for those interested in:  Endurance athletes Trail runners & ultrarunners Backcountry hunters and hikers Cyclists and hybrid athletes Anyone training in Zone 2 or long-duration efforts  

In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with Kurt Krueger, a true "Renaissance man" whose life story reads like an adventure novel—from record-breaking All-American swimmer and water polo coach to a high-stakes survivor of a 1977 airplane hijacking. As the author of "Winning Ways for Living: Get Smarter ~ Perform Better," Kurt shares how 45 years of researching peak performance led him to a startling conclusion: the ultimate "peak" isn't found in a trophy, but in a global vision of peace. Throughout this gripping conversation, Kurt reveals the "Peacemaker's Miracle Meditation"—an elegantly simple practice he used to transform gang-heavy inner-city schools and transmute his own life-threatening experiences into a mission for harmony. He challenges the notion that peace is a passive state, instead presenting it as an active, creative force that can be scaled from a single classroom to the world stage. If you've ever felt paralyzed by the conflict in the news, Kurt's journey from elite athletics to the Peacemaker Circles Network offers a radical, science-backed shift in perspective that proves "peak peace" is the highest performance level of all.

Discussions around high-performing teams tend to gravitate toward the end results, the metrics, the milestones, the victories. Yet what often goes unexamined is the journey that leads teams there. Rather than focusing on performance as an outcome, it's far more valuable to explore what lays the groundwork for it. And why things tend to fall apart even when everyone means well. To shed light on this, we have with us Kanu Priya, Chief People Officer- India & APAC at Credera. Kanu Priya brings rich experience in driving people and culture transformation within high-growth organizations.

In this episode, Erin Carson, one of the most respected strength coaches in endurance sports, breaks down why movement quality is the foundation of performance, injury prevention, and long-term athletic success. She explains how many athletes are already “strong enough” but are limited by stiffness, poor mechanics, and inefficient movement patterns. From simple at-home routines to the concept of “easy speed,” Erin shares practical strategies to improve mobility, unlock better performance, and train for longevity, so you're not just faster today, but still moving well decades from now.Key TakeawaysMovement quality = efficiency. Better movement reduces energy cost and improves performance quickly.Many athletes don't need more strength—they need better mobility and coordination.“Easy speed” comes from improved mechanics, not just fitness gains.Tightness in the front of the body inhibits strength in the back (reciprocal inhibition).Most endurance athletes are overly tight in hip flexors and chest due to training posture.Overhead squats are a powerful diagnostic tool for mobility limitations.Ankles, hips, and thoracic spine are the three key mobility areas.Strength training should support movement, not compromise it.Small, consistent routines (“four things”) are more effective than complex programs.Multi-directional movement reduces injury risk and improves durability.Elastic energy (bounce) is more efficient than muscular force.Variety in training (especially for youth athletes) is critical for long-term success.Longevity training starts now: how you move today determines how you age.Use the Code: COMPASS to get a discounted membership for $19.99 per month.ECFIT - 2 Week TrialPaul Warloski - Simple Endurance CoachingMarjaana Rakai | Nordic Performance Lab

 There was a time when our guest was a diversity skeptic.  He actually believed that Justice Clarence Thomas’s thinking on the matter had some validity.  Then he began to explore the history of the concept and became a true admirer of the benefits that diversity brings to academic settings, the workplace, science laboratories and all manner of activity.  From that he began a thoughtful examination of the science behind the benefits of having previously excluded groups as part of the conversation and decision-making process.  And while some argued that simply by using the Socratic Method of challenging convention you could get enough diverse opinions, he began to recognize, as other scholars like Wilhelm von Humboldt and John Stuart Mill did in the 19th century and Charles Eliot, Archibald Cox and Lewis Powell did in the 20th century, that you actually needed people with different backgrounds and life experiences to provide the rich diversity of thought that resulted in better scholarship and outcomes.  America’s adaption of diversity in action over the last 50 years seemed to suggest we understood that, so now why the backsliding?  We discuss this all today with Berkeley law professor, David Oppenheimer.  He is the author of the new book, “The Diversity Principle: The Story of a Transformative Idea.”

In this episode of The Kirk Miller Podcast, Kirk sits down with stress specialist Charlotte Stebbing-Mills to explore a reality many high performers face but rarely talk about — becoming addicted to stress. For entrepreneurs, leaders, and ambitious professionals, operating at high intensity often becomes the norm. But when stress becomes your baseline, it can quietly drive burnout, poor decisions, and long-term health consequences. Charlotte shares her personal journey through burnout and the lessons that shaped her work helping high performers understand their stress patterns, regulate their nervous system, and build a life that supports both performance and recovery. This conversation reframes stress, not as something to eliminate completely, but as something to understand, manage, and channel in a healthier way. In this episode, Kirk and Charlotte discuss: Why many high performers become addicted to stress and urgency The hidden cost of operating in constant "go mode" How early life experiences shape your stress patterns and behaviours Why awareness and reflection are the first steps to change The importance of learning to pause and listen to your body Practical strategies for managing stress and improving recovery How boundaries, environment, and lifestyle choices impact wellbeing Why managing stress isn't about slowing down — it's about sustaining performance This episode is for business leaders and ambitious individuals who want to maintain high performance without sacrificing their health, energy, and long-term resilience.

Dear Dental Hygienists, If your patients keep coming back with the same amount of calculus, this is the episode for you. In this Op Talk edition of Tooth or Dare, Irene and Victoria take one of the most misunderstood tools in modern periodontal care and pull it apart clinically, practically, and honestly. Desiccation therapy is often described as “drying,” “etch-like,” or “just another add-on.” In this episode, we explain why none of those descriptions are quite right — and why that misunderstanding is exactly why so many clinicians either misuse it or underutilize it. Using real Instagram questions and real operatory experience, we walk through what desiccation therapy is doing at the tooth, tissue, and biofilm level, how it changes the feel and efficiency of scaling, and how to integrate it into everyday periodontal appointments without disrupting workflow, patient comfort, or ethics. This episode is supported by the folks at Young Specialties, the company that brings PerioDT to the American dental market. Their efforts to expand the reach of this innovation led to this episode and the use of this product nationwide. To learn more about this therapy, visit this link for a FREE 1-hour webinar: https://yng.ink/4qClAef If you've ever wondered whether desiccation therapy is “worth it,” if you've used it but never felt confident explaining it, or if you want to tighten up your perio workflow without adding chaos — this episode is for you.

You were probably taught to fear masturbation. I see this every day in my work with men and women. The problem is not self pleasure. The problem is guilt, misinformation, and nervous system disconnection. In this episode, I break down the biggest masturbation myths and explain what actually supports sexual health, erections, confidence, and pleasure after 50. I talk about porn use, erectile dysfunction, testosterone fears, technique, frequency, and shame. I also explain why orgasms act like pelvic floor training and why mindful self pleasure strengthens partner sex instead of replacing it. This is a no shame conversation about choice, awareness, and reclaiming pleasure as part of wellness.In this episode: 0:00 You were lied to about masturbation0:28 What masturbation is really linked to1:10 Why people feel guilt and anxiety around self pleasure1:55 Orgasms and pelvic floor health2:35 Why masturbation supports sexual function3:05 Myth one porn is the problem3:55 Myth two masturbation causes erectile dysfunction4:40 Myth three guilt is harmless5:15 Myth four technique does not matter5:55 Myth five masturbating too much6:25 Testosterone fears and final reframing of pleasureWant a deeper look?

Most people treat mental health like an emergency tool, not a daily strength practice. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with Cory Chadwick, founder of Lyceum, to unpack the difference between reactive coping and proactive growth. This conversation is for anyone who's functioning but not thriving, especially busy leaders and high performers who want more clarity, energy, and consistency. You'll learn how to close the gap between where you are now and your personal “10” by building repeatable mental habits, not chasing motivation. About the Guest: Cory Chadwick is the founder of Lyceum, a trainer-led “mental gym” designed to help leaders and high performers build proactive mental fitness. He focuses on practical tools, accountability, and consistent growth through weekly group training. Key Takeaways: Treat mental health like physical fitness: train consistently, not only in crisis Use the “1 to 10” check-in to spot the gap between current self and best self Drop the need for perfection: missing one day is normal, quitting is optional Focus on “do something, not nothing” to keep momentum alive Ask yourself: “What do I really want out of life?” to simplify decisions Build sustainable habits with structure, guidance, and community How to Connect With the Guest: LinkedIn (connect with Cory Chadwick) https://www.yourlyceum.com/  Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

One of the things I love about teaching is that we can draw on many disciplines to make our work better—art, psychology, learning theories, and even neuroscience. Recently, I've been reading about what brain research can tell us about practicing and how we learn, and it's fascinating.Welcome back to our 2-part series on practicing.In part 1, we talked about the art of practicing. I shared what I'm learning from Madeline Bruser's book, The Art of Practicing, and how I'm carrying these concepts and strategies into my practice sessions and studio.In this episode, part 2, we'll explore Molly Gebrian's book, Learn Faster, Perform Better. This book is all about the neuroscience of practicing: how we learn, process, and retain information. If you've been reading along with us in the Musician & Co. Book Club, you likely have some insights of your own, but I wanted to share what stood out to me and how it's impacting my practicing and my teaching.For show notes + a full transcript, click here.Resources Mentioned*Disclosure: some of the links in this episode are affiliate links, which means if you decide to purchase through any of them, I will earn a small commission.

#291 This episode begins with a brief tribute to our friends at Perform Better, following the heartbreaking loss of team member Rob Milani. Rob embodied warmth, generosity, and family-first values — a reminder of what truly matters. From there, Billy shares three eye-opening statistics every gym owner should know. These numbers aren't meant to discourage. They're meant to wake us up to the power of better financial habits and a stronger plan. In this episode: The shocking percentage of gym owners who can't handle a $1,000 emergency Why income doesn't always equal wealth and what to do about it The real reason 80% of gyms don't make it through the first year Three simple actions to break free from these statistics and start winning financially Key takeaway: Money isn't the goal. I's the tool that helps you build a business and life that serve what matters most.

What if the secret to enjoying your job isn't grinding harder but stepping back and rethinking how work fits into life? In this episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Neighbor Doug welcome special guest Shemin Nurmohamed to unpack the Paris Paradox: balancing work and leisure without sacrificing ambition. From cultural perspectives on downtime to the productivity perks of unplugging, Shemin shows why working less might just help you accomplish more. But that's not all. What happens when your financial advisor suddenly jumps ship to another firm? The team digs into what it means for your money, your relationship with your advisor, and how to evaluate whether it's time to follow—or finally shop around. Add in Doug's trivia, a few stumbles down random rabbit holes, and our community's contributions, and you've got a lively mix of practical advice and classic basement energy. Whether you're plotting your next vacation or just trying to figure out how to stop your inbox from running your life, this episode offers real-world strategies (and plenty of chuckles) to help you reset, recharge, and refocus. Why time off is not laziness but fuel for better work and sharper decision-making. How cultural differences around leisure can reshape your own approach. What to do when your advisor changes firms (and how to spot a keeper). Practical ways to build stronger connections and communities. The “Two Beers and a Puppy” test: a surprisingly effective tool for evaluating relationships.

I have recorded multiple episodes on the topic of "Sharpening The Blade." Sharpening the blade is a term used by chefs, lumberjacks and hockey players that means, take the time to sharpen your blade and you will save time and effort while you cut, chop or skate. I sharpen my mental blade multiple times a year. Short trips, hikes, weekends with no cell service and anything else that removes me from the grid would qualify as a STB! This last STB was one for the ages. I trained for it, planned for it and executed it to the highest level. It involved an entire month of travel, new experiences, killer waves, massive wipeouts, sun, fun and romance. (Ahhh ha honey! That's right baby) You don't need to do what I did to get similar results. You just need to have an intention and create an environment that is conducive to that intention. You have Bali in your heart. You have Thailand in your loins. You just need to dig deeper to find it. (That didn't sound right!) Enjoy this episode. I enjoyed recording it for you.
