Today's guest is Bill Smart. Bill is a sport scientist and physical preparation coach specializing in elite fight-sports performance. As the founder of Smarter Performance and the Strength & Conditioning lead for the CORE MMA team, Bill integrates cutting-edge evidence with real-world high-performance systems to enable combat athletes to show up on fight day in optimal physiological condition. Much of the conversation in sports performance hinges on speed and power development, or conditioning, as a stand-alone conversation. Sport itself is dynamic and combines elements of speed, strength, and endurance in a dynamic space. Training should follow the same considerations to be truly alive and effective. In the episode, Bill shares his journey from cycling and rowing to combat sports. He discusses how long isometric holds develop both physical and mental resilience, and their implementation in his programming. The conversation dives into muscle-oxygen dynamics, integrating ISOs with conditioning, and how testing shapes his approach. Bill also explores flywheel eccentrics, fascicle-length development, and why sprinting is a key element for maintaining elastic power in elite fighters.

Watch athletes move in multiple contexts before prescribing anything. Look for how they transition between patterns, not only the end positions. Use video less for judgment and more for curiosity. What is the athlete trying to do? 11:35 – Identifying limiting factors Athletes plateau when coaches overemphasize one metric or capacity while ignoring the real constraint. Look beyond the weight room; technical or psychological factors often drive plateaus. Use minimal testing data to narrow focus rather than justify complexity. Sometimes the limiting factor is overcoaching. Let athletes fail and self-correct. 20:42 – Strength that transfers Transfer happens when strength work complements, not competes with, the sport's rhythm and intent. Prioritize strength that preserves elasticity and timing rather than just force output. Rotate exercises often enough to keep athletes adaptive, but not so often that they lose rhythm. Load movement patterns, not just muscles. Treat every lift as coordination under resistance. 30:01 – Variability and play in training Bill describes play as a teaching tool that restores creativity and problem-solving in athletes. Use small games, uneven surfaces, or timing constraints to build adaptable movers. Variability should be purposeful. Expand coordination bandwidth without losing technical intent. Schedule “uncoached” time in sessions where athletes explore movement freely. 40:36 – Coaching communication and connection Great coaching depends on trust and empathy before information transfer. Deliver feedback as collaboration,

Robert O'Brien served as Donald Trump's national security adviser from 2019 to 2021. O'Brien's predecessors in that position left the administration to become some of the most vociferous critics of their former boss. O'Brien, in contrast, remained a staunch defender of Trump's foreign policy through the Biden administration and into Trump's second term. And perhaps as a result, he can help make some sense of the thinking behind Trump's approach on key national security issues, drawing out the objectives and assumptions driving policy on China, Ukraine, the Middle East, Venezuela, and much else. Shortly before the 2024 election, O'Brien wrote an essay in Foreign Affairs called “The Return of Peace Through Strength: Making the Case for Trump's Foreign Policy.” Last week, he published a follow-up to that essay, giving Trump high marks for his approach to the world over the past ten months. O'Brien and Dan Kurtz-Phelan spoke on Monday, November 10, about the second-term policy so far, about where he sees continuity and where he sees change from the first term, and about where Trump's foreign policy may be going from here.

Gentle Strength: The Quiet Power of Non-discrimination, Dharma Talk, Kathy Abeyatunge

The first sprint after birth can feel like your body forgot the map. We get honest about that moment, then build a smarter route back to running, lifting, and sport with real tools you can use today.We start with the emotional shock of early returns: missing your old speed, feeling awkward under a bar, and wondering where your core strength went. From there, we lay down clear buoys—simple checkpoints that guide when to push, when to hold, and how to pivot without fear. For CrossFit athletes, we map a practical path from 2–3 weeks of breath, bracing, and light circuits to 4–6 week barbell reintros, low-impact metcons, and gradual intensity in just one or two domains. Expect specific weights, movement options, and what “normal” feels like when grip and shoulders wake back up.Strength timelines get real too. Many dedicated lifters hit 85–95% of pre-pregnancy numbers by nine to ten months, with sleep, fueling, and nursing shaping the curve. Then we tackle running head-on, cutting through scary anecdotes with what the evidence actually supports: a personalized, symptom-led return. You'll get a time-based interval template (not mileage), how to check for leakage, heaviness, or rebound soreness, and the three strength staples every runner needs—staggered-stance deadlifts, loaded lunges, and resisted lateral work—to improve impact tolerance and reduce shin and knee issues.Throughout, we tie in pelvic floor nuance, delivery factors, and why stories of prolapse don't prove running “too early” caused it. We talk fueling, community, and mindset, because performance after birth isn't just physical—it's logistical and emotional. If you've been waiting for permission to move on your terms, with data and compassion, this is your map.If this helped you build your plan, follow the show, share it with a friend who's returning to sport, and leave a quick review so more moms find evidence without the fear.___________________________________________________________________________Don't miss out on any of the TEA coming out of the Barbell Mamas by subscribing to our newsletter You can also follow us on Instagram and YouTube for all the up-to-date information you need about pelvic health and female athletes.

But what if advocacy didn't have to mean becoming hardened or adversarial?In this episode of The Rising Beyond Podcast, Sybil is joined by Becky Sampson, founder of a subpoena support service and a survivor who turned her own three-and-a-half-year divorce battle into a mission to help others navigate family court with confidence, compassion, and strength.Together, they discuss:Why knowledge is your greatest form of protection — from learning court terminology to understanding your rights.How documentation can make or break your case (and what judges actually look for).The role of subpoenas, when to use them, and why they can be a game-changer in uncovering hidden information.Balancing empathy and boundaries — learning to lead with heart without letting it be weaponized.What self-advocacy looks like for survivors representing themselves in court.Why your worth and your parenting are not defined by the outcome of a case.Whether you're preparing for your first hearing, fighting post-decree motions, or simply trying to stay steady through the process, this episode offers both practical tools and deep validation.Connect with Becky:Website: https://beckysampson.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/divorcingstrongbeckysampsonLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/beckysampson/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beckysampson11/

We're told protein is the key to building muscle.But what if it's also the key to a sharper mind, balanced hormones, and a longer, more vibrant life?This week's episode brings together four of the world's most respected voices in nutrition and longevity to break down the science of protein, metabolism, and healthy aging. Because it's not about chasing more grams or quick fixes. It's about understanding how to nourish your body with intention, quality, and care.In this masterclass conversation, I'm joined by:Dr. Rupy Aujla – NHS GP, author, and founder of The Doctor's Kitchen, sharing how protein supports longevity, energy, and blood sugar balance.Dr. Stacy Sims – exercise physiologist and researcher challenging the myths holding women back in nutrition and training.Simon Hill – nutritionist and host of The Proof, explaining how protein quality, source, and timing influence muscle synthesis and long-term health.Dr. Gabrielle Lyon – functional medicine physician and author of Forever Strong, describing why muscle is the organ of longevity and why protein is its foundation.We explore:How to use a simple four-step formula to calculate your optimal protein intake for energy, recovery, and healthy aging.Why women's protein needs change across their cycle, perimenopause, and menopause, and how to adapt with confidence.How protein timing affects muscle repair, mental clarity, and appetite regulation.What makes animal and plant protein different, and how to combine them for complete nourishment.How building lean muscle mass supports metabolism, bone density, and cognitive health.Why fasting, under-eating, and low-protein diets can accelerate aging and hormone imbalance.What the latest science reveals about protein's role in longevity and brain health.How to design balanced meals that keep you strong, focused, and satisfied every day.This isn't just a nutrition class. It's a reframe of how we view food as fuel for strength, mood, and vitality. Whether you're starting your health journey or fine-tuning longevity habits, these insights will change the way you think about every meal.Love,Sarah Ann

Modern athletes know that strength and endurance alone aren't enough. The ability to generate power efficiently, resist injury, and recover quickly depends just as much on the health of connective tissues—tendons, ligaments, and the extracellular matrix (ECM)—as on muscle strength itself. Yet, these vital tissues have long been misunderstood as relatively static and untrainable. The latest research proves otherwise: tendons and ligaments are remarkably adaptive, capable of remodeling and strengthening in response to targeted loading and proper nutrition. The white paper presented in this podcast distills more than a decade of cutting-edge research into a clear, evidence-based framework for improving connective tissue health and performance. Drawing on the work of leading scientists and sports medicine experts, it explains how short bouts of specific mechanical loading—paired with precise nutritional strategies—stimulate collagen synthesis, enhance tendon stiffness, and accelerate recovery. The paper also details the biological mechanisms behind these adaptations, offering a practical roadmap for both elite and dedicated recreational climbers. Whether you're looking to climb harder, rehab a connective tissue injury, or simply increase your resilience so as to stay injury-free longer, this research-driven guide provides the tools to do it. Listeners (and readers) will learn how to structure brief daily tendon-training sessions, time nutrient intake to maximize collagen synthesis, and avoid common anti-adaptive mistakes that slow recovery. Backed by peer-reviewed science and real-world application, this paper redefines how athletes can train smarter—and perform stronger—through the science of connective tissue optimization.

What if sending one Instagram DM could completely change the trajectory of your life and business? In this episode, Braxton Kilgo, Founder & CEO of I Believe In You (IBIY), shares his incredible journey from a small town in Texas with just 200 people to building a global movement that's touched lives in over 20 countries and 100+ cities. After a career-ending football injury forced him to reimagine his future, Braxton discovered his true calling when a middle school principal's phone call led him to create stickers that said "I believe in you" - sparking a ripple effect of kindness he couldn't ignore. From frantically rewriting a speech 24 hours before delivery to receiving stories about lives saved, Braxton reveals how one bold DM to a stranger in Scottsdale introduced him to his business partners Joey and Dylan, who brought him into a world of entrepreneurs that transformed everything. Through the power of "big belief leading to big action," Braxton built IBIY - a tech-enabled bracelet movement where small acts of kindness create measurable waves of impact, with partnerships including Tony Robbins' Mastermind.com and Recovery Unplugged that happened before they even officially launched their B2B offering. Braxton shares why "show up to serve, not sell" will 10x everything you're doing, how being kind and asking "how can I help you?" creates an army of people ready to connect you with anything you need, and why the person giving the bracelet might experience something even more powerful than the person receiving it.   [00:05:19] What Braxton Does: Building a Kindness Movement with Technology Founded I Believe In You (IBIY) - a movement centered on one core belief: small acts of kindness can make big waves of impact Flagship product: Bracelets with "I believe in you" message that you wear with the intention to give away Each bracelet contains an NFC chip synced with mobile app - tap your phone to see personalized video/photo messages and track the bracelet's journey Track every city, country, and person impacted - watch your ripple effect spread around the world even after you give it away Mission: Create an army of "wave makers" to make impact as individuals and businesses [00:07:40] The Origin Story: From Football Dreams to Purpose Grew up in May, Texas - a town of 200 people where his whole family lived on one farm Thought his only path out was playing in the NFL Got to college on a football scholarship but struggled with injuries, limping off the field every day after practice Strength coach Coach Ramey pulled him aside: "I think you were made for something bigger than this, and I think you also want to be able to run around in the yard with your kids one day" Eventually dropped out, went back to the farm and oil field, returned to school and started a clothing company called Vision about defining your version of success [00:10:41] The Pivotal Moment: A Principal's Phone Call That Changed Everything Got invited to speak at a middle school (about 10 schools in, wasn't very good yet) Principal called 24 hours before: "I wanted to remind you what some of the kids are going through at home and at school so you really know who you're talking to" Spent 10 minutes breaking Braxton's heart with stories Braxton told his brother: "I wrote the wrong speech. I'm not qualified" [00:12:37] The Unexpected Impact: When Kindness Goes Viral Principal called days later: Kids were being nicer to each other in hallways and to staff Parents called thanking them for the speaker because of conversations kids started at home Local businesses called asking "what are these ugly ass stickers these kids are sticking on everything?" At 19 years old, shipped bracelets to 16 different countries, appeared on TV channels and podcasts [00:15:01] The Long Journey: From 19 to 30 and Back Again Realized he didn't know any entrepreneurs - "the only person I knew that was maybe a business person was the guy who had more cows next door" Put IBIY on pause to learn how to be a business person and build the technology Built another company (Hours Global - business consulting) that he used to fund IBIY Worked with 1,000+ clients in sales, branding, and high-level partnerships over the decade Now ready to launch IBIY to the world at age 30 (turns 30 next week) [00:18:29] The Million Dollar Question: A Life-Changing Introduction Who Changed Everything: Joey and Dylan (his business partners) [00:19:25] Pivotal People: Joey and Dylan - The Instagram DM That Changed Everything Was planning to move to Fort Lauderdale with his best friend/brother Two friends convinced them to move to Scottsdale instead - "at least come for a little while" On the drive to Scottsdale in a U-Haul, looked for people doing cool stuff on Instagram Never had true friends who were also entrepreneurs before meeting Joey and Dylan They introduced him to Devon who runs Arizona Entrepreneurs, which is where he met Nico [00:21:18] The Scottsdale Effect: From 10 Months to 5 Years Original plan: Stay in Scottsdale for 10-12 months then leave Reality: Stayed for 5 years and was the last one there after all his friends moved Joey and Dylan are now his business partners in IBIY They're the reason he brought IBIY back when he did [00:23:20] The Arizona Entrepreneurs Connection: Opening Doors Everywhere Joey and Dylan introduced him to the Arizona Entrepreneurs community Became the official marketing partner of the entire Arizona Entrepreneur group His first investor for IBIY came from one of those stages Got to sit on stages with "some of the top entrepreneurs in the world" even though they'd done "astronomically more" than him" [00:31:42] The Three Pillars of IBIY Direct-to-Consumer: Bracelets sold online to anyone in the world; each collection gives back to a charity Culture Shift Tour: Speaking at hundreds of schools around the country every year (led by partner Jared), recreating the original sticker moment with real bracelets B2B Partnerships: Custom co-branded bracelets for nonprofits, churches, retreats, conferences, and businesses with custom messaging and packaging [00:32:40] The Partnership Program: Impact You Can Track Organizations get completely co-branded bracelets and packaging Can leave a custom message on the front of all bracelets (video from founder/leader appears first time it's tapped) Working with major companies BEFORE officially launching: Recovery Unplugged, Mastermind.com (Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi), Dick's Sporting Goods meeting scheduled, ClickFunnels reached out All from texting friends and reaching out through personal relationships - no marketing yet [00:38:59] Braxton's Advice: Big Belief, Big Action, Big Results "You have to believe you are before you are and you have to believe like absurdly" "Big belief leads to big action, which is the only way to get those big results" "Little belief leads to little action, which then basically just has you re-solidify in your mind that you couldn't do it" "If you want the magic, you gotta take some risks. There's no risk, there's no magic" [00:41:00] The Giver's Gift "It's really awesome for the people that receive the bracelet, but I think it might still be more powerful to the person that gives it away"   KEY QUOTES "Small acts of kindness can make big waves of impact." - Braxton Kilgo "You have to believe you are before you are and you have to believe like absurdly. Big belief leads to big action, which is the only way to get those big results." - Braxton Kilgo "If you show up to serve, not sell, it will 10x everything that you're doing." - Braxton Kilgo "If you want the magic, you gotta take some risks. There's no risk, there's no magic." - Braxton Kilgo CONNECT WITH BRAXTON KILGO

Send us a textSpecial Forces- The Human Side of StrengthSummary — Special Forces S4: “Composure” (Day 7)Day 7 whittles the group down to six recruits and tests everything they've learned — physically, mentally, and emotionally. A medical withdrawal (Christie) leaves the team shaken; another recruit (Mark) is pulled for serious ear damage. The core of the episode is an intense hostage-rescue operation that exposes failures in leadership, communication, and decision-making: one team panics and brings a hostage into a gas-filled room, another team performs cleanly, and a third succeeds. In the aftermath the DS instructors call out poor choices, force accountability, and push recruits to show vulnerability rather than numbness. Personal backstories surface (Shawn's stoicism, Brianna's drive to make her dad proud, Kody's complicated family past), and recruits are pushed to own mistakes, repair relationships, and bond — even writing “death letters” to open up emotionally before more operations. The episode ends with recruits exhausted but more exposed — physically injured, chastened, and challenged to become better teammates.Key beats / takeaways1640 / Day 7: 8 → medical withdrawal reduces number; Christie leaves in tears.Mark is warned about potential long-term ear disfigurement and pulled for medical care.Hostage-rescue operation: multiple pairings with mixed results — one team's panic causes a near-fatal mistake; other teams show strong communication and pass.DS debriefs highlight leadership failures (Kody), lack of communication (Cody & Shawn), and the cost of “going robotic” (Shawn).Emotional breakthroughs: recruits confront personal failures, ownership, and grief; DS encourages crying and authenticity as strengths.Death-letter exercise forces emotional vulnerability, creating a deeper bond and setting emotional stakes for future ops.Support the showhttps://www.wewinewhenever.com/
