Steve Redgrave gives a unique look at the mindset of a champion, the challenges of maintaining success, and his personal struggles with insecurity and depression. Rob and Steve's conversation gives valuable lessons on perseverance, teamwork, and the importance of mental health in high performance environments. Steve Redgrave REVEALS: Why he attributes so much of his success to preparation The importance of team unity and accountability How to push through mental and physical barriers His struggles with insecurity and self-doubt, even after achieving Olympic success The challenges of retirement and subsequent depression The evolution of rowing as a sport How he used visualisation and tactical thinking to maintain a competitive edge throughout his career. His experience with Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) and its positive impact BEST MOMENTS "The more I practice, the luckier I seem to be." "When I won my first Olympic gold medal, in LA is that the previous gold medal in rowing was a journalist at that time from 1948 and he came up to me shook my hand he said you're world champion for one year you're Olympic champion for life." "If I lost because I didn't prepare properly and put everything I possibly could into achieving the results that we hit, we had, and then got beaten by somebody, you've got to put your hands up." "I drive myself forward on the failures, not on the success." "When you're trying to do what hasn't been done, doing what people have been doing to get there may work, probably won't, but probably won't. You've got to find different ways of doing it.” VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team Episode Sponsor - AG1 Claim your exclusive offer of AG1 at the link below drinkag1.com/disruptors ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

"Come on you little fighter & Get back up again!" Supertramp sang - and perhaps the rise of Manchester United is only around the corner! For INEOS and Sir Dave Brailsford, Carrington and Old Trafford is the next stop as the multi-sport organisation looks to enhance the performance of the teams at Man Utd. And while being famous for the 'Marginal Gains' mantra at British Cycling and TeamSky, Brailsford is now taking on a beast with huge global standing in Manchester United. But it's not the first football club to explore using other sports and practitioners to influence their organisations. From Sir Clive Woodward and Steve Redgrave to MSG group and Barcelona many organisations have pooled knowledge across sports. And as its winter in Northern Europe, the cold snap has returned and provides more challenges for clubs in simply trying to train  - and then there's the games too! Wind, rain, snow, ice and, believe it or not, even sun have caused games to be postponed or curtailed. So what's there to do... well small areas of pitch are decimated, stadium steps are conquered and professionalism rains down - until we all get too cold and go back inside!

The SPOTY award is the main prize of an annual ceremony organised by the BBC. It was created in 1954 by Paul Fox, who was the editor of a sports magazine show called Sportsview. The idea was to honour the sportsperson who had achieved the most that year, as voted by the public. The first winner was Christopher Chataway, a runner who beat Roger Bannister, the first man to run a mile in under four minutes. Since then, the award has become one of the most prestigious and popular awards in British sport. It has been won by legends such as Bobby Moore, Daley Thompson, Steve Redgrave, Kelly Holmes and Andy Murray. The award is open to any sportsperson who is British or who plays a significant amount of their sport in the UK. The winner is chosen from a shortlist of 10 nominees, selected by an expert panel, and announced live on TV in December. Who won for 2023? Why was this person chosen?

Welcome back one and all to Broken Oars Podcast - the Rowing World's best and most informative podcast (bar Crossy's Corner - we'll hear no bad words about that man. He's a legend).   As you know, while the Southern One finishes up a professional qualification the Northern One has been taking his brain out for a spin to talk about poets and poetry.   (Yes, it does sound remarkably like listening to paint drying, doesn't it ... ?)   But fear not, this is the Northern One - a man incapable of uttering a snooze-inducing sentence, finding a subject he can't make a quip or point about, or being boring generally. And it is in that capacity that he's created the perfect series for people to dip into while the nights are long, the air balmy, and the weather perfect for sitting out in the garden and doing some culture.   Yeah.   Cultchah! Having whistle-stopped through Thomas Hardy and A.E Housman, detoured into how a Brian called Geordie (should that sentence be the other way 'round ... ? Ed) is to blame for guitar heroes and all of their widdle, and then leapt back to look at Charles Dickens ... a theme is emerging ...   That's right:   How did we get here from there.   Or to put it more simply, why Britain today is largely the same as Britain then?   (Isn't this fun? We're learning all about caesuras and enjambments and what happened when and where and to who and asking cool questions! Who said no, when's the rowing stuff coming ... ?).   In this episode we engage with one of the most problematic writers in the canon: Rudyard Kipling.   An Anglo-Indian, with a deep apprehension of the realities and mythologies of Empire, Kipling was more famous in his day than Steve Redgrave (largely because Steve Redgrave hadn't been born then) but is rarely read now.   We learn why; explore why it's a short step from denying or revising books to burning them; and look at why should and what we can learn from engaging with a racist, and imperialist ... and the most important English writer since Shakespeare. We explore how Empire was not a benevolent force for good, or a civilising mission but instead always and forever an economic enterprise; and illustrate how its expansion ran alongside technological expansion - something Kipling was keenly aware of.   Examining Kipling's status as an Anglo-Indian, and thus a second-class person, we look at the way he explored and exposed the myths of Empire to show its realities: the overt racism of The White Man's Burden, the sham of Britain standing alone given its reliance on its connections to the world in Big Steamers; and the people who work alongside or create the technology that sustains the whole endeavour in McAndrew's Hymn and The King. We reclaim Mandalay from Boorish and see how Kipling's wide-ranging work in poetry, short stories, children's stories and novels should be engaged with if we are to overcome our cultural amnesia and beliefs about the missing 300 years of our history that we don't talk about or teach.    And that's before we get to Tommy - as pertinent now as it was then.   And it's out in time for the weekend? And there's a rowing episode coming out too?   Get some!   Bow? You're a jelly-bellied flag-flapper. Take a tap.

Ronnie, Skip & Neil discuss all the latest goings on in the Premier League. Another big week in the relegation fight as it closes up near the bottom.Also, are Man City cheats? Does their dominance feel genuine? They also discuss Man City's charge for the treble.

In this week's episode, I'm going to be focusing on how to interview podcast guests. Now, I've been a journalist for 20 years and way back when I worked at ITN, I had to interview all sorts of people, politicians, sports, people, and the same when I ran my magazine for eight years, I've interviewed Steve Redgrave and believe it or not Basil Brush. So, I'm going to let you know the key things to focus on when you're preparing to do your interviews.    Episode Highlights: (01:19) Book an interesting guest (02:13) Do your background research (03:11) Write a nice, flattering introduction (05:36) Don't ask closed questions (06:42) Repurpose your interview  Ep. 59 How To Create A Brilliant Guest Signature Talk: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/ep-59-how-to-create-a-brilliant-guest-signature-talk/id1529616010?i=1000543466958    Connect with Claire:  Here are my 30 Content Ideas in 30 Minutes Download: https://clairewinter.info/freebies/30-content-ideas-in-30-minutes/  Email: claire@clairewinter.info    To find out about 1:1 content coaching go to:  www.clairewinter.info Free Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crackingcontent/ Website: https://clairewinter.info/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/clairewinteruk 

The good news is the leg is on the mend. If the 9,611 steps I've taken today are anything to go by I'm hoping to be back in action, be it careful early next week, at the latest. So, whilst I've been taking time off from training, the Get Fit To Coaching is still carrying on unaffected. Now, I've been giving some thought to “who” if “anyone” would I have on the podcast when I reach 200 episodes. 200 episodes are around 30 hours of me talking about get fit to row, getting fit, rowing, training and anything else that comes to mind is quite a lot. But we're just getting started. Now, here's the thought, I think my rowing hero is Steve Redgrave, I've met him a few times at Henley Royal Regatta, just to say hello, don't think he would ever remember me, but I remember him, the guy is huge, modest and friendly. I've always wanted to ask, “what {did} you think about whilst you trained”, I've always wanted to know what he would have been thinking “at {key} moments” in his gold medal Olympic races, and I've always wanted to ask “what made you {never} give up”. Now I don't know how to get in touch with Steve and I'm not going to try to directly contact him, I don't want to do things like that. I think Steve is in China now as Director of Performance, he was recently named as someone who would not be selected for GBR Director of Performance, I wonder if that was simply a political decision or the powers knew he's not the man for the job, who knows. So if I'm not going to try and contact Steve directly, how can I ever expect to get to talk to him on podcast 200? Well, I thought perhaps I'd leave it to you, one of my super fans who might know Steve or know someone who knows him to perhaps suggest to Steve to listen to my podcast, and If he fancied a chat, about stuff, perhaps he'll reach out? You see I'm trying to build Get Fit To Row as something anyone can try, but to find me you have to spend some time discovering me and learning about the Get Fit To Row idea, and if it's right for you you might get in touch if it's right for you it's right I'd love to talk to Steve Redgrave, he's a hero of mine, I don't know what I'd ask first, but I'd love to learn what journey he'll have taken to find me. Because I believe the best fitness endeavours are journeys, if you go on a journey what you find at the end is more valuable, then and for life. Here's today's podcast: https://www.getfittorow.com/get-fit-to-row-podcast/138-feet-up-thinking-day-2-steve-redgrave What about your fitness and rowing, are you ready to get started? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/get-fit-to-row/message

You’d know the Tokyo Olympics are just around the corner because for the second week in a row, rowing is the central focus of this week’s podcast. Skibbereen duo Paul O’Donovan and Fintan McCarthy have continued their dominance of the lightweight men’s double sculls after another gold-winning performance on Sunday morning at World Rowing Cup II in Lucerne. Fellow Skibbereen rower Lydia Heaphy also medalled in Switzerland, winning a superb silver in the lightweight women’s single sculls A final on Saturday afternoon. On today’s show we’ll reflect on the club’s continued success with Olympic gold-medal winning rower Martin Cross. Cross, who won gold at the 1984 Games in Los Angeles alongside Steve Redgrave, is also a well-respected rowing commentator, journalist and author. We’re also going to touch base with Ballineen sprinter Joan Healy.  The 60m specialist has been ruled out of the Olympics through injury but thankfully the achilles damage isn’t as bad as originally feared. But before all that, Ronan McCarthy’s Cork footballers picked up their first win of the year on Saturday evening with a convincing 2-12 to 10 points win over Laois in Portlaoise and Kieran was at the game for The Southern Star.

There is a lot you can focus on when getting fit to row, Steve Redgrave knows how important they are, and he's won 5 Olympic golds. I think hands are the connecting element few think about enough. If you use your hands correctly you can gain small margins, but it's those small margins that could make all the difference. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/get-fit-to-row/message

Liverpool's Brian Schumacher was the captain of the 1984 Team GB Olympic boxing team. He rubbed shoulders with the likes of Seb Coe, Daley Thompson and Steve Redgrave. He was also a clearance diver for the Royal Navy and a former ABA champion. He lost to the brilliant Virgil Hill in Los Angeles and at the start of his pro career defeated future WBO world champion Johnny Nelson. But politics and life away from the ring saw him fall out of love with boxing before his fall from grace. He was sentenced to life in prison for the murder of his mother's partner. Here, he recounts his fights in and outside of prison and reflects on one of the most extraordinary tales you're ever likely to hear. Boxing Life Stories is now on Patreon.

Cliona Foley speaks to Irish Olympic rower Frances Cryan about her success at Moscow 1980. Frances competed in Russia, where she just missed a place in the single sculls final by 1600th of a second. She was only 20 at the time and actually trained with Steve Redgrave and the Americans in subsequent years yet, despite going to Dublin to get her Olympic uniform in 1984 - she wasn't sent to the Los Angeles Olympics! The decision on Los Angeles was made only six weeks beforehand and made because those choosing 'didn't think she'd make the final'. It soured her relationship with the sport and she quit some years later but she is still very passionate about rowing and the Olympics. Give it a listen!

Today, I’m joined by the sportsman, adventurer and double Olympic gold medallist, James Cracknell. We first got to know James as part of the coxless four rowing team, alongside Steve Redgrave, that won gold at the Sydney Olympics. Several world titles later, James went on to take part in countless feats of endurance, from becoming the highest ever placed Brit to run the Marathon des Sables, the hottest hardest race in the world, to rowing the Atlantic in a two man boat, and racing to the South Pole with his friend Ben Fogle, who you might have heard on the podcast earlier this season. Then, in 2010, James’s life was turned upside down. While cycling in a race across America, he was struck by a lorry and experienced a serious brain injury that left him in a coma. As we discuss, his journey to recovery has been anything but straightforward, but his story is one of sheer determination and resilience, ultimately leading him to return to university - Cambridge, no less - where he became the oldest ever winner of the famous Oxbridge boat race. Travel has been hugely important to James. Of course he’s spent a lot of time on some of the world’s most beautiful lakes and rivers - and I love being by the water, so I really enjoyed hearing about those. And his Slovenian hidden gem is a spot that I’ve now added to my travel wish list, and I’m sure you might do too.

Quadruple Olympic champion Sir Matt Pinsent is perfectly placed to talk about the role of the teammate.  He traces his incredible rowing partnership with Sir Steve Redgrave from their daunting first meetings and unquenchable competitiveness, through to gold medals in Barcelona, Atlanta and - most famously - Sydney.  How do you sync a rookie with a legend?   How did Matt know his new partner was different class, during their early mornings on the Thames at Henley?  Mark Pougatch joins host Jonathan Overend on Episode Nine, in association with Aldi UK, the Official Supermarket Partner of Team GB.  Roy Keane and Sir Alex get namechecked, Matt goes off on a Michael Jordan tangent, plus more random Essex sports stars of the 80s and 90s.   And who wins at Golf? Redgrave or Pinsent?...

The 2000 Sydney Olympics were a happier time. Steve Redgrave won his 5th gold for Great Britain and Cathy Freeman became a symbol of national reconciliation for Australia. In this episode, we look back on a tennis event which also delivered compelling storylines, including double gold for Venus Williams to cap an extraordinary summer and a 4th place finish for a young Roger Federer. We also hear from men’s singles gold medallist Yevgeny Kafelnikov (starting 23m 27s) about his epic final against Tommy Haas, his experiences in the village, why his gold medal has defined his legacy in Russia, and how he compares it to his Grand Slam titles.* PODCAST LINK *If you enjoy listening to The Tennis Podcast, please spread the word and share our link on your social media platforms - https://podfollow.com/the-tennis-podcast* NEWSLETTER *Sign up to get our news, offers and Matt’s Stat - http://eepurl.com/gbmzRX* EMAIL *We hope that the podcast helps to provide some form of escape during these challenging times.

A physiologist and former British Olympian has unveiled a blueprint for what he describes as the world's ultimate superhuman. It includes the acceleration of Usain Bold's legs (whose fast-twitch muscle fibers can accelerate faster than 99.9% of people), the lungs of British rower Steve Redgrave (whose seven-liter capacity means he can take in a third more oxygen than the average person), the brain of “human calculator” Scott Flansburg (who can add numbers faster than a real calculator), the vision of Veronica Seider (able to distinguish detail from up to a mile away, her sight is 20 times better than the average human), the ears of Daniel Kish (able to navigate his environment by measuring the echo response of clicks made by his tongue), and the voice of Georgia Brown (whose vocal range spans 8 octaves). Well, God is assembling a body greater than that right here – the superhuman body of Christ! A body that has been gifted with such things (as we talked about last week) as: miraculous powers, prophecy, mountain-moving faith, healing power, life-giving mercy, and wisdom from another world. And if you are a follower of Jesus, you are part of that superhuman body. Click here to download the sermon outline

A body that has been gifted with such things (as we talked about last week) as: miraculous powers, prophecy, mountain-moving faith, healing power, life-giving mercy, and wisdom from another world. And if you are a follower of Jesus, you are part of that superhuman body. Click here to download the sermon outline

In this interview we reflect upon Katherine's rowing career and as ever, she is extremely humble, perceptive, honest, thoughtful, driven and resilient. We hope you enjoy the show!     Show noes Reflecting on the moments before the Sydney Olympic final and the physical and mental preparation Katherine adopted on final's day.  Exploring Katherine's transition into senior professional sport and senior training as a rower, an incredibly draining period both physically and emotionally. Also having to transition with professional coaching and sports science support with new lottery funding.  As a youngster Katherine became a sponge when around others, trying to soak up as much experience and wisdom from anybody around her.  Thrown into an unrelentingly physical training programme. Sink or swim moments. The goal to make the podium at the Sydney Olympic games. Any medal would have been deemed a huge success, but the silver might be nice!

Gold medal winners.

Everyone matters, sharing experiences and the huge highs and lows of this level of involvement.  Katherine reflects back on the important others that have played a part in her career and her love for being a part of a team.  Katherine would tell her younger self to enjoy and persist with your own journey wherever that takes you.    Supporting Champions on Twitter www.twitter.com/support_champs Steve Ingham on Twitter www.twitter.com/ingham_steve Supporting Champions on Linkedin, www.linkedin.com/company/supporting-champions Instagram https://www.instagram.com/supportingchampions/ A reminder if you're keen to pre-register for the next wave of Graduate Membership enrolments then you can do so at https://supportingchampions.co.uk/membership/ If you're looking for some coaching support or some virtual team development help to support you to get to the next level in work, life or sport then take a look at https://supportingchampions.co.uk/coaching-mentoring/ or drop us a note at enquiries@supportingchampions.co.uk then you can sign up for a free consultation to explore which package is right for you.
