Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!What if your training career wasn't limited by a sales quota or a noisy gym floor? We sit down with Moroccan coach Abdul Jalil Guemra to map his leap into a five-star medical spa where fitness coaches work alongside doctors, physical therapists, and dietitians to design true longevity programs.Abdul pulls back the curtain on a model that starts with comprehensive consults and flows into personalized plans built on five pillars: metabolic function, nutrition and diet, sleep and recovery, physical fitness, and stress management. You'll hear how each guest gets a tailored path—whether that means more structured recovery and performance work for athletes or deeper focus on sleep, stress, and nutrition for high-burnout executives. The result is a collaborative system where coaches stay within scope, clinicians lead diagnosis and treatment, and clients see measurable, life-changing progress.We also dig into the career skills that actually win elite roles. Abdul credits mentorship and internship-style training for giving him the confidence to communicate with clinicians and the judgment to know when to refer. He makes a strong case that soft skills—presence, listening, hospitality—separate great coaches from the pack, especially in luxury wellness environments. And he breaks down how the resort's business model removes sales pressure, allowing coaches to focus on delivery, service quality, and outcomes that go beyond PRs to include better sleep, lower stress, and stronger daily function.If you're a trainer aiming for a high-end or clinical setting, you'll leave with a clear playbook: invest in real mentorship, master scope, and treat communication as a core skill. Enjoy the conversation, share it with a coach who needs a nudge, and don't forget to subscribe and leave a quick review so we can keep bringing you practical, career-changing insights.Want to ask us a question?

Today on the Stay Tranquilo Podcast, Andre sits down with Donny Joshua-Felix — performance coach at DBC, lifelong runner and former Howard University soccer player — for a real conversation about identity, faith, discipline, and the mindset it takes to actually become the person you say you want to be.From growing up in a Haitian Christian household (grandfather a pastor, dad a church musician) to chasing PRs, missing them, and learning not to attach self-worth to results, Donny breaks down the habits and reframes that changed his life: “I don't have to — I GET to.” We get into stillness, gratitude, journaling, the “no snooze” rule, teaching youth athletes, and why choosing the harder right (over the easier wrong) builds real self-trust.If you're into mindset, performance, faith, running, or just need a reset on your daily standards, this one's for you.In this episode you'll learn:The power of “I get to” — turning discipline into gratitude-driven actionWhy perfection is a trap and how to detach identity from outcomesSimple daily wins that stack confidence (no-snooze, make your bed, move your body)How to use stillness/meditation to hear your intuition againReframing self-talk: replacing limiting labels with identity statementsCoaching youth athletes to be resilient humans first, players secondWhat to do when you're “doing everything right” and still not hitting goalsHighlights & TopicsFaith & family roots → leadership and serviceHoward University soccer → performance coach at DBCRunning mindset: smiling through pain, training without egoThe “future you” filter: will you be proud of this choice tonight?Social media courage: sharing your story to help one person is enoughGuestDonny Joshua-Felix — Performance Coach at DBCIG: @donnyjoshuaCoaching/Bookings: https://www.dbcfitness.com/Connect with Stay TranquiloSubscribe for weekly episodes on growth, culture, and communityTimestamps (add after upload)00:00 Intro — “Life is a blessing”00:xx Faith & family foundation00:xx Howard U, soccer & music00:xx DBC coaching & daily routine00:xx Running, PRs & resilience00:xx Gratitude, stillness & mindset00:xx Coaching the next generation00:xx Final takeaways & challenge  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

When Elizabeth Blair began lifting postpartum, she had no idea that strength training would one day become one of her most important tools in fighting cancer. In this powerful episode, Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson sit down with coach Nikki Berman and her client Elizabeth to explore the transformation that comes not from chasing PRs, but from choosing to show up when life hits hardest. Elizabeth shares her journey from new mom learning to deadlift, to receiving a diagnosis of aggressive triple-negative breast cancer, to lifting through chemo, surgery, and recovery. She and Nikki walk us through adapting training around a chemo port, managing energy and nausea, and redefining what "success" looks like when your goal shifts from performance to survival — and then back again. This conversation is about strength in every sense: physical, emotional, maternal, and human. It's a story of refusing to quit, of lifting through chemo to maintain dignity and control, and of building a body and mindset capable of meeting life's hardest challenges. Whether you're a lifter, a parent, or someone navigating your own fight, this episode shows that the path forward is through the obstacle — one rep, one day at a time. What You'll Learn How strength training supported postpartum recovery Why small wins and consistency matter more than perfect programming Adapting training around chemo ports, nausea, fatigue, and post-surgery rules The emotional and mental resilience built through training How lifting can be an anchor during uncertainty and fear Returning to the barbell after treatment — and hitting new milestones PS - IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN TAKING ONLINE COACHING FOR A TEST RUN, CHECK IT OUT HERE.  Connect with the hosts Niki on Instagram Andrew on Instagram Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram Podcast Webpage Barbell Logic on Facebook Or email podcast@barbell-logic.com

Start with a sunrise 5K in costume, add a social 10K with better photo flow, then stir in a half marathon that put course design under the microscope. That's the arc of this Wine and Dine weekend—equal parts magic, logistics, and heart. We walk you through the expo's new rhythms , a refreshed core runDisney merch line with some questionable shirt cuts, and the small tweaks that make or break a big weekend when sleep is scarce and plans are tight.From Moana-and-Maui family fun to smart walk-run comebacks, the 5K and 10K reminded us why these miles feel so welcoming. We share how the 10K's streamlined finisher photos and steady water stops kept the vibe smooth, even without electrolytes on course. Then we get candid about the half: the narrow out-and-back to Blizzard Beach that packed two-way traffic on one side, frayed tempers, and raised safety concerns. We talk heat, hydration gaps inside the parks, and where an extra aid station near Tower of Terror could change the day. Along the way, we spotlight wins that matter—stomach issues managed with grit, an age-80 finish powered by training and belief, and PRs earned in sticky weather.What tied it all together? Community. Our Disney Springs meetup turned buttons and cookies into new friendships, and Myra's legendary bus energy somehow wrangled a flawless group photo. Out on the course, familiar cheers, shared pacing, and quick humor turned long miles into memorable ones. If you care about runDisney tips, course strategy, expo intel, and how to build a better race weekend, you'll find plenty here to steal for your next start line.Also Emily from hollarhype is back on the podcast and brought along two Friendly Randos, Debbie and Troy. Emily gives us some updates on some new features in hollarhype.If this recap helped, follow the show on your favorite app, share it with a runDisney friend, and drop us a quick rating or review.

In this episode, we sit down with Paul Klein IV, Founder & CEO of Browserbase, to explore how his team is redefining the foundation of AI-driven browser automation. Browserbase provides the web browser infrastructure for AI agents and apps, and its open-source SDK, Stagehand, lets developers write automations using natural language - adapting seamlessly as websites evolve.Paul shares his belief that browser automation is a critical but underinvested primitive that future AI applications will depend on for years. He traces the journey from the limitations of traditional headless browsers and brittle RPA tools to the emergence of a cleaner, more adaptable framework built for the AI era.We dive into:Stagehand's design philosophy: minimal feature bloat and strong abstractions.Developer-first community: TypeScript and Python support driven by user demand and open-source contributions prioritized through community PRs.Director, Browserbase's new layer for non-technical users: “if v0 was for building websites, Director is for building automations.”How open source investment fuels both innovation and integration, and why Browserbase believes the next billion-dollar company will be built on top of its framework.The evolving relationship between AI agents and the web, touching on Cloudflare, automation ethics, and where the line lies between automation and scraping.Paul also reflects on inspiration from figures like Jeff Lawson, the importance of great abstractions for new developers, and the “moment of magic” when AI begins to work on your behalf.

In this week's mini episode, I'm tackling a question that came my way recently: “What's the point of running a race if you're not measuring progress by time?” After four marathons, I've learned that progress isn't always about pace or PRs. It can show up in the way you fuel, how you handle the tough miles, or how you keep your mindset strong when things don't go to plan. If you're training for your first marathon or just need a reminder that growth comes in many forms, this episode is for you. Follow along with the show:

Send us a textEver wonder how a small team pulls off big results without burning out? We go behind the scenes after hours and walk through the real systems that keep Fortis moving: how we split creative and operations, why delegation beats heroics, and what it takes to turn a rebrand from a file on a screen into a painted logo on a gym wall. You'll hear how a simple choices, can save hours and prevent the quiet leaks that drain momentum.From there, we dive into our apparel workflow, where design and craftsmanship meet checklists and counts. Nate handles the creative vision and final press work; Liz turns orders into precise production runs; Tanner stages prints so print days fly. That same clarity powered our switch to TrainHeroic: one of us mapped the coaching needs, the other engineered the migration and client comms so members felt a clean handoff. It's a pattern we rely on, strategy paired with process, to start scaling services without sacrificing quality.The biggest stress test is meet day. Coaching five to twenty lifters across multiple flights demands more than hype; it requires a shared playbook. Liz builds a live Google Sheet with flights, lifter order, planned attempts, and contingencies. Nate studies the plan early, then calls game-day jumps based on bar speed, confidence, and goals. System plus intuition lets us move fast and keep athletes calm. It's how we hit more PRs and reduce chaos.We close with a practical answer to a hot question: clean foods or flexible foods for muscle growth? Clean, whole-food-forward eating typically feels better and curbs accidental overeating, but adherence decides the outcome. A flexible plan that consistently hits protein, macros, hydration, and sleep will outperform a strict plan you abandon. Aim for mostly whole foods, add smart convenience where needed, and let consistency do the heavy lifting.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves training, and leave a quick review to help others find us.

In this solo lecture episode, I journey into the luminous teachings of Manly P. Hall as we listen together to a rare recording from September 17, 1961. This lecture titled, 'Cosmic Mind in Action: Adjusting Personal Consciousness to Divine Purpose', is a transmission of higher wisdom -- an exploration of the universal, spiritual mind that exists as the silent foundation beneath all creation. This field of infinite intelligence is not somewhere “out there,” but alive within each of us, waiting to be recognized and remembered.Through his words, Hall illuminates a truth both simple and profound: the evolution of our consciousness does not depend on bending the outer world to fit our personal desires, but on the inner work of attunement. It is through refinement, humility, and alignment with this greater cosmic current that we find our rightful place in the vast, divine order. An incredible recording! Drop In!www.prs.orgManly P. Hall Bio:Manly P. Hall Bio:Manly Palmer Hall (March 18, 1901 – August 29, 1990) was a renowned philosopher, author, and mystic who delved deeply into esoteric traditions and spiritual knowledge. Born in Peterborough, Ontario, Hall moved to the United States at a young age and soon became a prominent lecturer on occult and metaphysical topics. His curiosity and passion for ancient wisdom culminated in the publication of *The Secret Teachings of All Ages* in 1928, Over his lifetime, he authored more than 150 books and delivered over 8,000 lectures. His teachings spanned subjects such as Hermeticism, Rosicrucianism, astrology, comparative religion, and the symbolism found in sacred texts.In 1934, Hall founded the Philosophical Research Society (PRS) in Los Angeles, a center dedicated to the study of philosophy, comparative religion, and personal development. The PRS continues to preserve his vast collection of manuscripts and teachings.Hall's work has had a lasting impact on those seeking spiritual growth, often serving as a bridge between modern spiritual seekers and ancient wisdom traditions. Despite passing away in 1990 under mysterious circumstances, Hall's influence remains significant among students of esoteric and philosophical studies. Hosted on Acast.

In this conversation, Samson speaks with Ant Blubello, a physical therapist and strength coach, about his evolution from a self-critical athlete to a coach guided by faith and emotional intelligence. Ant dives into his early struggles with body image, the power of positive self-talk, and how spiritual growth has influenced his approach to both rehabilitation and performance. He offers honest reflections on working with high-level athletes, collaborating with military personnel, and balancing the demands of therapy and strength coaching.Key TakeawaysAnt's journey from overweight kid to respected coach is deeply inspiring.Relationships are the foundation of effective coaching.Positive self-talk fosters both athletic and personal growth.Faith and purpose guide Ant's approach to performance and rehab.Coaching requires empathy, patience, and understanding of human behavior.The art of rehabilitation is as much emotional as it is physical.Balancing physical therapy with coaching provides a holistic athlete view.Quote:“The problem with that was that it worked. Me beating myself up did lead to new PRs and better grades—but that negative self-talk bled into relationships and friendships.” — Ant Blubello

In this episode, I dive into the management mantra that "what is measured is managed" and explain why this simple assertion often leads to a complex trap. We discuss why the act of measuring team productivity is never neutral—it's an intervention that immediately changes behavior, often resulting in unintended consequences like gaming the metrics. We'll explore how to collaborate with your team to find measurements that truly drive desired behaviors.Understand why the phrase "what is measured is managed" means that measuring something triggers management of that thing, in varying degrees.Learn why the act of measuring something is an intervention, especially when done with the intent of turning it into a target (e.g., increasing PRs or decreasing bugs), and how this action is shown to change behaviors around the thing being measured.Discover how measurement can lead to unintended consequences, such as when tracking velocity via story points causes team members to inflate or deflate their estimates, making the measurement itself less meaningful.Explore why giving ownership of metrics to the people acting to improve them makes sense, and how you can collaborate with your team to determine what kinds of measurements should be taken.Recognize that if you want something to survive—such as paying down tech debt—you must feed it with time, resources, and attention, ensuring your actions line up with what you claim to care about.Understand that since your calendar and dashboards will get crowded if you measure everything, the exercise of choosing metrics is as much about accepting that you have to choose what you will actively manage and invest in.

Jess McClain has become the new face of American women's marathoning: a symbol of resilience, balance, and belief in one's own path.A former collegiate standout at Stanford, she stepped into the pro ranks with Brooks, only to face years of injury, transition, and even stepping away from full-time running to build a life outside the sport. Jess never left the track mentally. In 2024, working full time and largely self-guided, she shocked the field by placing 4th in the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials, narrowly missing the team by seconds.Not content to be defined by near misses, she went on to win the USATF 10K title (setting a course record), she ran a breakthrough PR of 2:22:43 as top American at the Boston Marathon in 2025, and earned her place on Team USATF for the World Championships.In Tokyo this past summer, she finished 8th overall in the marathon, which was a stunning result on the biggest stage of all. This finish wasn't a random burst; it was built on her modest-mileage, high-quality approach.As of 2025, Jess blends stride sessions, strength work twice weekly, and intentional rest; she also rejoined a coach-athlete relationship with David Roche in 2025. Her story isn't solely about PRs and race placings, it's also about redefining what's possible when you craft your own path and control your narrative.Tap into the Jess McClain Special.  If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

The countdown to Wine & Dine is on, and the energy is real. We swap last‑week training moves, practical travel advice for 2026 bookings, and a surprisingly useful shoe debate: are Brooks' Stitch-themed Glycerines a smarter buy than limited race-weekend drops? Then we bring in a conversation that will change how you see your run, your city, and your next trip to Disney.Author and advocate Doug Gordon (Life After Cars) joins us to explore a world with fewer cars and more options—walking, cycling, transit, and micro‑mobility that actually fit everyday life. Doug uses Disney's transportation web—monorail, Skyliner, ferries, buses—as a live model for moving huge crowds smoothly without private cars. We talk runner safety and the power of systemic fixes: lower speeds, protected lanes, better crossings, and design that invites lingering, not just passing through. He connects Epcot's original vision to what we crave today: places that feel good to move in.We also spotlight the Chicago Marathon with a stacked roundtable. Hear an expo that hums, a 5K with countries on bibs, and race-day stories that span sub‑three breakthroughs, 60‑minute PRs, back‑of‑the‑pack grit as the course comes down, and a tribute run that turned grief into a 15‑minute PR. Charity teams like American Cancer Society, Ronald McDonald House, and Achilles International show how big-city chaos becomes community. The crowds? Electric from start to finish.We wrap with meetup details (find us by the bleachers), the short‑fuse Disney gift card reminder, and a race report that tours PRs, spooky sprints, endurance milestones, and firsts worth framing. If you love runDisney, safer streets, and finish-line feelings that last, this one's for you.

Send us a textThis is part one of this episode as we had a technical error and only one mic was recording during the second half. We will be re-recording the second half and including a spot for questions. So if you have any questions about your bodyweight and how to master it hit us up in the DMs!What if the number you're chasing on the scale is the very thing holding you back? We unpack the obsession with target weights both in life and in powerlifting. As coaches and competitors, we've seen the same pattern for years: people tie identity to a weight class or an old “best” number, only to stall, burn out, or get hurt. We get practical fast. You'll learn how to set outcome-based goals, use progress pictures the right way (same light, same time, same clothes), and track signals that matter: strength PRs, sleep, steps, and weekly weight averages. We dig into body composition realities too: muscle weighs more than you think, and many folks need to weigh a bit more to look stronger and leaner. Genetics, frame size, and training age all shape the result, so comparison is a losing game; the win is building a body that performs and endures.We also zoom out to the cultural noise: pressure to be smaller, the rise of GLP-1s, and the drastic pendulum swing between extremes. The antidote is simple and powerful: consistent training 3–5 days a week, protein-forward meals, good sleep, and patience. Consistency beats intensity every time, and the “overnight” progress people notice later is usually months of quiet, steady work.

Few athletes have risen as fast—or raced as fearlessly—as Gary Martin.Now a senior at the University of Virginia, he has evolved into a consistent national contender with personal bests that rank among the fastest in collegiate history. His 3:32.03 1500m at the 2025 USATF Outdoor Championships placed him sixth against the nation's best, while his 3:48.82 indoor mile at the Millrose Games stunned the sport and highlighted his breakthrough season. He also anchored UVA to its first NCAA indoor distance medley relay title with a 3:48.12 split indoors; he is a runner with impressive range, holding PRs of 13:16.82 for 5000m and 1:47.46 for 800m.Affiliated with UVA and Brooks Running through an NIL partnership, Martin credits strength-based training and heavy threshold work as the engine behind his speed. With the cross country season underway, he opened with a 22:51 8k at the Gans Creek Classic and was named ACC Performer of the Week, underscoring his momentum heading into the championship season. At just 21 years old, his trajectory reflects both resilience and the promise of a future star well beyond Charlottesville.Tap into the Gary Martin Special.  If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-BUY MERCH BEFORE IT'S GONE: https://shop.therunningeffect.run-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

As hard as it is for us to hear, the “grind harder” and "bigger, faster, stronger" mindsets that once got us results are now holding us back. In this powerful episode, world-leading perimenopause women's health, fitness and performance expert Louise Valentine breaks down why women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s, especially runners and Type A high-achievers, need to rethink how they train, fuel, and recover. She introduces the idea that “the threshold has changed”. Our bodies, hormones, how we achieve fitness adaptations, and nervous system health evolves with aging, and so must our approach.Listeners will learn how chronic stress, underfueling, male-based nutrition strategies and unexpected overtraining due to male-based running methods stall progress, and how recalibrating with smarter female-specific strength training, fueling, recovery, and nervous system regulation can unlock new levels of strength, holistic mind-body performance, and clarity. Louise shares real client stories showing how doing a bit less with intention and customized female-specific strategies can lead to faster running, better sleep, glowing skin, PRs, and lasting energy.This isn't about slowing down, it's about working smarter with your changing body and female physiology so you can continue to thrive, perform, and feel amazing at every age.Learn & level up with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/ Link to our FullScript where you can see our curated best supplement picks & save 20% off: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-startTake advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products: https://www.getkion.com/pages/maximizingEpisode Highlights:(0:00) Intro(5:07) Discovering the “threshold has changed”(7:57) Why Type A women need new strategies(12:28) The role of cortisol and recovery(16:37) Real client wins from doing less(20:06) Nervous system regulation and breathwork(25:39) The cost of always “crushing it”(28:46) New rules for nutrition, rest, and strength(30:46) Action steps to adapt and thrive(34:41) OutroTune in weekly to "Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause" for our simple female-specific science-based revolution.

The lights are on, the mics work, and the room is buzzing—because we made a big call that changes everything. We brought two locations under one roof, not out of panic, but out of purpose: to simplify, cut stress, and give our community the best hour of their day, every day. That choice reshaped our coaching, our classes, and our energy—and it already feels like the gym we always meant to build.We walk through the why and the how: post-COVID realities that never fully balanced out, overhead that outpaced demand at South, and the unmistakable pull of Midtown. Instead of grinding for years to prop up two addresses, we went all‑in on one. The payoff? Two rigs bolted into a 114‑foot spine, nearly all the equipment put to work, and more classes led by two coaches for sharper cues and smoother flow. The 5 a.m. crew is stacked, the room moves with purpose, and the energy is contagious. Members asked if we're selling gear; outside of a few extra Assault bikes, we're keeping almost everything because we actually use it to make classes better.We also get real about training and health during heavy seasons. Moving a gym and rebuilding systems means the goal shifts from chasing PRs to maintaining sanity and capacity. One of us heads into shoulder surgery, scaling smart to protect the long game. That mindset—adapt, don't quit—sets up what's next for the show: bringing back regular conversations on fitness, nutrition, recovery, and medical insights with Cassie, plus honest takes on trendy supplements and training ideas flooding your feed.If you care about community, coaching quality, and results that last, this is the pivot you'll want to hear.

Feeling stuck under the barbell? This Strength With Purpose episode dives into how to find your why so you can train with consistency and purpose even when motivation fades, life gets messy, or the excitement of chasing PRs wears off. Nikki Sims and Andrew Jackson share how to punch the clock with minimum-viable sessions, bring variety into your training without losing progress, and lean on coaching and community to reignite purpose for the long haul. What You'll Learn in This Episode How to recognize when your training motivation has dipped—and what that really means. Practical strategies to find your why and keep training consistent. The power of “minimum-viable” workouts that hold strength and muscle through busy or stressful seasons. Why variety (hypertrophy, machines, exercise swaps) can renew purpose without derailing goals. When to talk to a coach, remove “buzzkill” lifts, and reset your program with smart structure.
