Send us Fan MailWhat does it take to carve out a place in professional sport when your profession isn't yet fully accepted?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Alan Palmer, a chiropractor whose career has spanned nearly four decades and whose work has helped shape the role of chiropractic care in professional sports.From a back injury that changed his path… to working with organizations like the San Francisco Giants and Phoenix Coyotes… to founding and leading the Professional Baseball Chiropractic Society and Professional Hockey Chiropractic Society…Alan's story is one of persistence, professionalism, and playing the long game.We talk about:• How one injury led him into chiropractic and sports medicine • The realities of earning trust inside professional sport environments • The importance of staying in your lane while contributing at a high level • Building organizations that outlast your own career • Balancing family, practice, and ambition over decades • What it really takes to elevate a profession within elite sportThis is a conversation about more than chiropractic.It's about credibility. It's about relationships. And it's about doing the kind of work that quietly moves an entire field forward.If you're a practitioner working in the grey area between rehab and performance… this one will resonate.If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston. You can find all things LYM at www.LYMLab.com, download your free Life Lab Starter Kit today and get busy living https://lymlab.com/free-lym-lab-starter/Please take the time to visit and connect with our sponsors, they are an essential part of our success:www.ReconditioningHQ.comwww.FreePainGuide.com 

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Leave Your Mark, I sit down with Coach Johnny Parker, a true pioneer in the world of strength and conditioning whose career has shaped generations of athletes and coaches alike.From his beginnings as a high school football coach in rural Mississippi to becoming the first strength coach in the Big Ten, and eventually spending two decades in the NFL with organizations like the New York Giants, New England Patriots, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and San Francisco 49ers, Johnny's journey reflects the evolution of an entire profession.But what stands out most is not the titles or the championships.It is the standard.Johnny shares the defining moments that shaped his philosophy, including an early coaching failure that forced him to confront the responsibility that comes with leading others. From that point forward, he committed himself to mastery, not just of training, but of people.We explore his model of leadership, built on progression from fear, to respect, to belief, and ultimately to self-driven excellence. He reflects on lessons learned from iconic figures like Bill Parcells and Bob Knight, and offers a grounded perspective on what truly separates good coaches from great ones.This conversation is a powerful reminder that coaching is not about control; it is about connection, accountability, and helping people become more than they believed possible.If you work with people in any capacity, this one will stay with you.On a personal note, this was one of the great honors of my life in human performance. Johnny influenced me when I was a young S&C coach, and he didn't even know it.  I never knew the man; I just knew the legend, and to finally speak with him was a great privilege. Johnny is in the battle of his life, and if this session or his personal impact on you has meant anything, letting him know would surely mean a lot to this incredible man.  ScottyIf you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston. You can find all things LYM at www.LYMLab.com, download your free Life Lab Starter Kit today and get busy living https://lymlab.com/free-lym-lab-starter/Please take the time to visit and connect with our sponsors, they are an essential part of our success:www.ReconditioningHQ.comwww.FreePainGuide.com

The next era of player development will be shaped by the brain—how it actually works and how we communicate with it. This episode dives into shifting from more drills to smarter inputs the brain can use under pressure. We unpack the move from: · conscious analytics to subconscious recognition, · from coach‑dependent instruction to neuron priming, · from outdated reps to brain‑based techniques that transfer on game day. We make the big ideas simple and actionable: Explicit vs. implicit training and when to use each. Accuracy vs. precision and how it changes practice design. How to coach arousal and attention so athletes perform without overthinking. The “brain budget”—what drains it, what restores it, and how to plan around it. Technical and tactical coaching is strong. Physical prep is better than ever. Mental skills are improving. The next edge is learning the brain's language so decisions, confidence, and performance hold when it counts. I'm joined by Krush Favorite: Tim Nicely—researcher, inventor, and founder of V‑Flex Sports—to map how brain‑based training upgrades athlete and player development for coaches, athletes, and parents. This is the paradigm shift behind Creating more Coachable Players. There's a change coming. The question is where you'll be when it arrives. The 20th season of Krush Performance is in full swing!

If your sport doesn't allow you to bring primary reinforcers onto the competition field with you, then at some point you need to work through removing those reinforcers from your training. This week Shade and I talk about the process of reducing reinforcement while minimizing frustration on the part of both dog and handler.

Send us a textAdam Virgile is a husband, father, and the Vice President of Integrated Performance Sciences with the LA Clippers, where he sits at the intersection of data, physiology, sport science, and real-world decision-making.In this role, Adam works across departments to help ensure that the information being collected actually informs the decisions athletes and organizations make every day — and, more importantly, that those decisions lead to meaningful action on the floor and behind the scenes.Adam is also the co-author of The Sport Science Handbook, written alongside Marc Lewis, Director of Applied Sports Science for the Houston Texans. The book was created to offer the guidance they both wished they had earlier in their careers — practical, experience-driven insight for practitioners navigating the complexity of modern sport.In this episode of the Leave Your Mark podcast, we explore Adam's journey, his evolution with integrated performance systems, and what it really takes to connect information, people, and purpose in high-performance environments.

Send us a textThis week on the Leave Your Mark Podcast, we sit down with Michael Ouzas.Michael's journey is one many athletes quietly face—but few talk about openly. A former professional hockey goalie, Michael began preparing for life after sports during the COVID-19 pandemic by pursuing his real estate license. What started as a contingency plan became a calling when an injury forced him into retirement earlier than expected.Since then, Michael has rebuilt—professionally and personally. Over the past five years, he has grown a thriving real estate business, found his life partner, Laura, and recently stepped into his newest role: fatherhood.This is a powerful conversation about identity, transition, resilience, and redefining success when the game ends—but life keeps moving.If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston.

Send us a textOn this episode of Leave Your Mark, I'm pleased to welcome Greg Lothian—a man whose life's work has been defined by service, responsibility, and an unwavering commitment to helping others.For nearly three decades, Greg has walked three parallel paths. As an Athletic Therapist and Vitality Coach, he's helped people overcome physical challenges and reclaim their health since 1996. As a firefighter, with 25 years of volunteer and career service, he's shown up for people in moments of real crisis—when presence, courage, and calm matter most. And as a mentor, he supports his children, his clients, and fellow practitioners as they navigate the complexities of work, purpose, and life.Greg is deeply principled. He believes in standing up for what's right—even when the status quo has lost its moral compass—and he holds a clear, grounded view on value: that being compensated well is not only acceptable, but appropriate when it reflects the impact you bring to people's lives.Naturally curious and systems-oriented, Greg has a passion for problem-solving, meaningful conversation, and thoughtful debate. He's endlessly interested in how people think, move, adapt, and change. At the center of it all, he sees parenting as both life's greatest challenge and its greatest privilege—an ongoing balance of structure, mentorship, and the freedom to fail.An unrelenting entrepreneur at heart, Greg is on a mission to elevate standards in the global health industry and help both practitioners and clients achieve outcomes that are not just better—but sustainable.This is a conversation about service, integrity, leadership, and what it really means to make your work—and your life—matter.

Send us a textThis week on Leave Your Mark, I'm joined by Max Lapierre.Max played 11 full seasons in the NHL, spending time with the Montreal Canadiens, Anaheim Ducks, Vancouver Canucks, St. Louis Blues, and Pittsburgh Penguins, with additional years in the AHL and European professional hockey. Drafted by the Canadiens in 2003, Max carved out a career built not on hype but on work ethic, competitiveness, and an edge he had to earn every single day.But what makes this conversation powerful isn't just the resume.It's the honesty.Max shares what it was like growing up in a small town, betting on himself early, navigating trades that shook his identity, and living with labels that didn't always reflect his true capacity. We talk about pressure, confidence, being misunderstood as a player, and how certain environments can either limit you—or unlock you.We also dive into his post-playing transition. Just before retirement, Max co-founded the podcast La Poche Bleue with Guillaume Latendresse—what started as something fun between friends exploded into one of the most influential hockey platforms in Quebec and beyond. Alongside that, Max has built a thriving career in broadcasting with TVA Sports, offering sharp, thoughtful insight into the game he lived.At the center of it all is family—his wife Natasha, their three daughters, and the values Max is now intentional about passing on.This is a conversation about earning your place, adapting through uncertainty, and learning who you are when the jersey comes off.Episode 454 with Max Lapierre.If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston.

Send us a textThis week on the Leave Your Mark podcast, I sit down with someone whose influence on our industry is truly profound — Dr. Trevor Cottrell.Recently retired and now serving as a Professor of Instruction in Physiology at Texas State University, Trevor brings more than three decades of wisdom, research, and applied practice to this conversation.For 21 years, he helped shape the future of Kinesiology, Athletic Therapy, and Osteopathy as a Professor and Program Coordinator at Sheridan College. His research spans the entire spectrum of human physiology — from cellular biochemistry to applied human performance — with a unique specialization in how warm-up strategies can directly manipulate and elevate power output.Beyond academia, Trevor spent over 30 years coaching in professional, Olympic, and collegiate environments and was a co-founder of the Canadian Strength and Conditioning Association. He built and ran a successful private performance facility, coached thousands of athletes, and became a sought-after expert in power and speed development, especially in contact sports.Today, he continues to give back by mentoring coaches at every stage of their careers and leading the Texas State University Olympic Weightlifting Club. He's also a devoted husband of 30 years and father of two grown children — someone who has lived a life of service, curiosity, and contribution.This episode is a deep dive into longevity, leadership, high performance, and the evolution of our field. If you're a coach, therapist, educator, or simply someone who cares about human potential, you won't want to miss this one. If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston.

Send us a textIn this episode of Leave Your Mark, I'm honoured to welcome one of the most iconic defenders in NHL history — Zdeno Chara.Zdeno, born in Slovakia, played 24 seasons in the National Hockey League with the New York Islanders, Ottawa Senators, Boston Bruins, and Washington Capitals. Standing at 6'9", “Big Zee” is the tallest player ever to compete in the league — but his impact stretched far beyond physical stature.As Captain of the Boston Bruins for 14 seasons, Zdeno led with humility, discipline, and purpose. He won the Norris Trophy in 2009, appeared in three Stanley Cup Finals, and raised the Cup in 2011 — becoming one of only five European-born captains to ever do so. Over 1,600 NHL games, he built a reputation for professionalism, integrity, and a relentless work ethic.Internationally, he represented Slovakia with pride, earning two silver medals at the World Championships. In 2022, he retired as a Boston Bruin and will have his number, 33, raised to the rafters in January 2026. Most recently, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.Beyond the accolades, Zdeno is a devoted husband to Tatiana and a father to three young children — and in this conversation, he opens up about leadership, resilience, growth, family, and what it means to evolve beyond the game.This is a special one.

Send us a textFor Episode 450, I had the privilege of sitting down with an exceptional group of performance practitioners gathered for the ALTIS Masters Residency. ALTIS has built a Master's program that blends world-class education with real, applied mentorship from some of the best minds in human performance—and this week was no exception.In the room were Performance Therapy Practitioners Danny Foley and Chris Gaurin, sharing their integrated practice approaches; lead educator Rich Clarke, whose work in change-of-direction research is second to none; Performance Coach Nick Ward; and several other members of the ALTIS team who were onsite to upskill the Master's cohort.I was honoured to be invited in as a mentor for this residency, and it's been a genuine pleasure to contribute to such a high-level learning environment.In this episode, the five of us dive deep into human performance—training, therapy, movement, coaching, and the philosophies that drive great practitioners.

Antonio Squillante earned a Ph.D. in Exercise Physiology from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. With over a decade of experience as a strength and conditioning coach at both the collegiate and professional levels, he now works as an Assistant Professor of Kinesiology at Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego. In this role, he teaches evidence-based practice in the graduate program in Strength and Conditioning. Antonio is the Head of Sport Performance and Training for the USA Cycling National Track Sprint Program and serves as a member of the National Strength and Conditioning Association Board of Directors. In addition to his academic and professional roles, Dr. Squillante is also a published author and an internationally recognized speaker and lecturer. QUOTES “If we look at the field of research, minimum effective dose is more technically called a dose response effect, meaning how much training load is necessary to see a significant increase in strength. So if I'm training someone, what's the minimum amount of volume, and intensity that is needed to drive adaptation?” “I just don't want the idea of the word minimum to ever trick anyone or leave anyone to believe that it's very little volume by default. Minimum just says that among all possible combinations of load and intensity and sets of reps and frequency for any individual at any point in their career, we're going with the bare minimum that works.” “The notion of strength and conditioning can be somewhat deceiving because it makes it sound like when it comes to the neuromuscular side of things, our goal is strength. Our goal is never going to be, and it's not supposed to be strength. Our goal is speed and power. We build strength because strength supports speed and power.” “That velocity will tell me throughout the week, from week to week, and all year round, when it's time to go up in volume, when it's time to go up in intensity, and when it's time to go up in frequency.” "The single biggest change, biggest in the sense that added both the greatest impact on results, but also the biggest paradigm shift in the way I go about training was reevaluating the importance of aerobic conditioning in resistance training and strength and power athletes” SHOWNOTES 1) Antonio's back story and how his experience playing American football in Italy brought him to S&C 2) The concept of minimum effective dose and its background in dose-response models 3) The influence of volume and intensity on minimum effective dose 4) Feedback loops and monitoring dose response and fatigue with athletes 5) Using velocity based training (VBT) to prescribe and monitor training adaptation 6) How to use VBT to decide whether to add volume or intensity to an athlete 7) The positive impact of aerobic conditioning on strength and power and its relationship with athletes ability to handle greater resistance training volumes PEOPLE MENTIONED Dr. Brent Alvar Carmelo Bosco Keijo Häkkinen Fred Hatfield

Send us a textOver the past eight years, I've had the privilege of sitting down with Stuart McMillan four different times—twice in one-on-one conversations, and twice in duo sessions. Each time, I've walked away with fresh insight into not only his coaching and business practices but also his perspective on life.Stuart is an eclectic soul—artist by nature (once known as Fingermash in the DJ world), lover of literature and the written word, and a man who carried that artistic spirit into the world of sports science and, most intentionally, the world of speed.Restless, curious, and fiercely individual, Stu built his own laboratory for human performance. Today, as CEO of ALTIS, he continues to shake the trees of our industry. One of his favourite quotes comes from George Bernard Shaw: "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world: the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man."In this episode (#443), I've woven together the best of those conversations—an assembly of wisdom, experience, and candid reflection that has shaped me as much as I hope it inspires you.Stu is more than a world-class performance coach and sharp businessman—he's also a good friend. I'm excited to share his voice and his wisdom with you once again.Enjoy the show!If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston.

Send us a textThis week on Leave Your Mark, I sit down with one of the most iconic figures in college hockey history—Coach Jack Parker.Jack's coaching career began in 1968, immediately after captaining Boston University's Terriers. Just a few years later, he stepped behind the bench as head coach, launching a remarkable 40-season journey that would define both his career and the program.Across four decades, Jack led BU to three NCAA titles, 24 NCAA tournament appearances, and 897 wins—the third-highest career total in NCAA history at the time of his retirement in 2013. His loyalty and leadership cemented him as the winningest coach at a single school in NCAA history.He was named NCAA Coach of the Year three times, and in November, he will be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame as a builder, recognizing his extraordinary impact on the game.In this conversation, we explore what it takes to sustain excellence, the lessons Jack learned along the way, and what legacy truly means when you dedicate your life to a craft.

Send us a textThis week on Leave Your Mark, I sit down with Keenan — CEO, entrepreneur, father, and the author of Gap Selling. But this conversation isn't about sales tactics. Instead, we dive into his remarkable life story: growing up adopted in a mixed-race family in Boston, chasing dreams of football and modeling, finding his way into sales, and becoming a father of three daughters.Keenan shares what selling really means (hint: it's about helping, not convincing), how curiosity shapes his life, and why teaching — not protecting — has been his guiding philosophy as a parent. We also unpack how sales thinking translates into human performance, coaching, and leadership.This episode is full of lessons about resilience, curiosity, and creating your own path.Keenan is the CEO of a sales training and consulting company, widely known for his best-selling book Gap Selling. Beyond business, he's an entrepreneur, speaker, and father of three daughters. Adopted into a mixed-race family in Boston in the late 1960s, Keenan has built a life defined by curiosity, courage, and an uncompromising commitment to living on his own terms.This is where you can find anything and everything he's into!https://salesgrowth.com/keenan/If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston.

This week on the Science for Sport podcast, host Richard Graves welcomes back Michael Carolan, a performance coach and subject lead in sport rehabilitation at the University of Salford.

Ever wonder what a world-class performance specialist eats to fuel his day? You might be surprised to learn it includes wild game like elk, deer, and yes, even bear meat! In this episode of Habits and Hustle, I talk with Dr. Andy Galpin, a leading expert in human performance who works with elite athletes across multiple sports. Dr. Galpin cuts through the noise of trendy diets to share fundamental nutrition principles that drive performance. We dive into why calorie balance, whole foods, and adequate protein (about 1g per pound of bodyweight) matter more than following any specific eating schedule. We also discuss hunting, eating bear meat, and how nutrition needs differ based on activity. Overall, Dr. Galpin emphasizes individualization, finding what works for your specific body, goals, and lifestyle rather than following one-size-fits-all approaches.

Are you optimizing your performance or leaving gains on the table? In this week's Habits and Hustle podcast episode, I sit down with Dr. Andy Galpin, a renowned human performance scientist, to discuss the science behind optimizing physical and mental performance. We dive into how the body actually works versus common fitness misconceptions, why basic blood work often misses the bigger picture, and reveal why many people's obsession with fitness data and tracking might be counterproductive. We cover everything from individualized training approaches to the science of sleep, recovery, and performance optimization. So tune in because Galpin shares insights from his work with elite athletes while making the science accessible for everyday fitness enthusiasts.  Dr. Andy Galpin PhD is a tenured full Professor at California State University, Fullerton. He is the Co-Director of the Center for Sport Performance and Founder/Director of the Biochemistry and Molecular Exercise Physiology Laboratory. He is a Human Performance scientist with a PhD in Human Bioenergetics and over 100 peer-reviewed publications and presentations.
