Eric Dahl joins Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson on Beast Over Burden to share how he continues getting stronger with age, setting major PRs in his mid-40s while balancing work, family, coaching, and recovery. Eric has been part of the Barbell Logic family since 2017 and has built an impressive strength resume, including a 507-pound bench press and a 628-pound deadlift at 46 years old. But this conversation is about more than big lifts. Eric shares how strength training became his version of a midlife crisis, why hard training provides purpose, and how he has learned to adjust recovery, competition, and programming as life has changed. He also discusses his long-term coaching relationship with Caleb, his experience becoming a coach himself, and the powerful story of helping his mother-in-law begin strength training after an osteoporosis diagnosis. This episode is a reminder that strength is for everyone. Whether you are chasing PRs, training for independence, or simply looking for a meaningful outlet for hard work, getting stronger with age is possible.

Mother of two, Joanna Simpson, was brutally killed by her estranged husband, British Airways pilot Robert Brown, on 31 October 2010. Brown smuggled a claw hammer in to Joanna's home and bludgeoned her to death before burying her body in a pre-dug grave. Despite this, Brown was acquitted of murder and convicted of manslaughter. He would serve just 13 years before becoming eligible for automatic release.    Laura's forensic analysis of Joanna's case, together with Joanna's extraordinary mother, Diana Parkes CBE, and best friend, Hetti Barkworth-Nanton CBE, ignited a grassroots movement that successfully prevented Brown's automatic release.    But that was not the end.

Ross McGraw has had one of the more interesting career arcs in the outdoor industry — from Nike's NYC Run program to Vice Media and Viacom, to helping build Hammerhead through its acquisition by SRAM, and now leading commercial efforts at CORE, the company changing how elite athletes think about heat. In this conversation, Ross breaks down the science of heat training in plain language — why 80% of the energy athletes generate is thermal, how heat zones work, and why the world's best cyclists and runners are training in heat suits before major races. He also gets into what it felt like to go from being a cog in a media machine to betting on himself in sports tech, why triathlon taught him more about business than any corporate job, and how to know when you're doing the "social run" version of your career.

Training data is the raw material of the AI industry. Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and the rest are built on top of oceans of stuff. What is that stuff? Books. Blog posts. YouTube videos. Reddit comments. All of it and more, in virtually incomprehensible quantities. Alex Reisner, a staff writer at The Atlantic who has been investigating training data, explains how AI companies get all this data, why they'd really prefer you not know what's in it, and whether training data could ever be a fair trade.

Xavier’s Blueprint for Winning Big Brother Today, in this special “How to Win Big Brother” episode, host Taran Armstrong welcomes BB23 winner Xavier Prather to break down the art of outsmarting, outplaying, and outlasting in the BB house. As secrets swirl and power shifts, smart players are working overtime to balance competitive fire, social bonds, and the risky game of keeping secrets. This week, Taran and Xavier dig into BB26's real-time action: how the players are preparing for— or deciding to throw—key competitions, where the social pecking order stands after a tense HoH, and how some houseguests are navigating jury management even before the votes. The discussion spotlights why studying past seasons (not just relying on AI tips!) can be the real edge, and how knowing what competitions to take seriously, and when to step back, can make a winner. They also highlight how revealing or hiding secrets—about your alliances, your showmances, or your own background—can swing trust in your favor or paint a target on your back, especially deep into the game. Xavier warns that relying on AI advice is lazy—true BB students watch and learn from previous seasons Positioning and perception are everything: players weigh when it's smart to win a comp or throw it without tipping off the house Building genuine social connections—and knowing which secrets to keep or share—can decide your fate and the jury's final vote Messy gameplay versus careful strategy: should players play for the drama or stick to the path of least resistance? The late-game challenge: Xavier reveals why the last evictions can shape the whole jury room, not just the finale chair As alliances shift and deals get cut, one misstep can turn the house upside down. Will BB26’s houseguests take Xavier's advice and control their own fate, or let paranoia and loose lips ruin their game? Tune in for the ultimate strategy guide to BB26—get inside the game, pick up winning tips, and see which houseguests might have what it takes to claim the $750K!

Founded in Indianapolis in 2006, RSB is built on the belief that individuals with Parkinson's can fight back against the progression of their disease through rigorous, targeted exercise   The RSB program is multimodal and incorporates boxing techniques, strength training, balance work, and cognitive challenges to address the motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's. Backed by growing evidence that high-intensity exercise can slow symptom progression, RSB has become a leader in exercise-based approaches to managing the disease.   Today, Rock Steady Boxing supports a global network of more than 800 affiliate programs that deliver its training in local communities, including gyms, rehabilitation centers, and community organizations. Through comprehensive coach training, ongoing education, and a strong support system, RSB ensures that its programs are accessible, adaptable, and effective for individuals at all stages of Parkinson's.

In this episode, Joe D. explains why one of the most common warm-up mistakes is actually making lifters weaker before their work sets even begin. He shares a smarter approach to programming warm-up sets for better strength, more muscle, and improved performance -- while revealing the exact warm-up progression he used before hitting a recent PR with the 100-pound dumbbells. Joe then breaks down the biggest superset programming mistakes that sabotage workouts, along with simple adjustments that can make them more effective. He wraps up the episode with an often-overlooked shoulder health tip that could finally help eliminate those nagging aches and pains. If you've ever wondered why your shoulders still hurt despite doing "twice as much back work," this episode explains what's probably missing from your program -- and how to correct it! *For a full list of Show Notes + Timestamps visit www.IndustrialStrengthShow.com.   IMPORTANT LINKS Lean Bastard VIP List Team Forever Strong [1-Week Free Trial]

Xavier’s Blueprint for Winning Big Brother Today, in this special “How to Win Big Brother” episode, host Taran Armstrong welcomes BB23 winner Xavier Prather to break down the art of outsmarting, outplaying, and outlasting in the BB house. As secrets swirl and power shifts, smart players are working overtime to balance competitive fire, social bonds, and the risky game of keeping secrets. This week, Taran and Xavier dig into BB26's real-time action: how the players are preparing for— or deciding to throw—key competitions, where the social pecking order stands after a tense HoH, and how some houseguests are navigating jury management even before the votes. The discussion spotlights why studying past seasons (not just relying on AI tips!) can be the real edge, and how knowing what competitions to take seriously, and when to step back, can make a winner. They also highlight how revealing or hiding secrets—about your alliances, your showmances, or your own background—can swing trust in your favor or paint a target on your back, especially deep into the game. Xavier warns that relying on AI advice is lazy—true BB students watch and learn from previous seasons Positioning and perception are everything: players weigh when it's smart to win a comp or throw it without tipping off the house Building genuine social connections—and knowing which secrets to keep or share—can decide your fate and the jury's final vote Messy gameplay versus careful strategy: should players play for the drama or stick to the path of least resistance? The late-game challenge: Xavier reveals why the last evictions can shape the whole jury room, not just the finale chair As alliances shift and deals get cut, one misstep can turn the house upside down. Will BB26’s houseguests take Xavier's advice and control their own fate, or let paranoia and loose lips ruin their game? Tune in for the ultimate strategy guide to BB26—get inside the game, pick up winning tips, and see which houseguests might have what it takes to claim the $750K!

Bryan opens this conversation with Ty Branaman, Head of Training at the GRIT Foundation, by digging into a question that anchors everything else in the episode: what is trades education actually for? Ty's answer is unambiguous — it's about people, not information. He describes his own struggle with traditional, reading-heavy instruction and explains how that personal experience shaped his teaching method, one built around making concepts visible, relevant, and hands-on. Bryan builds on the idea, arguing that education is too often treated as a simple transfer of information when it's really a deeply human exchange, a kind of gift passed from one person to another through real, physical, kinesthetic experience rather than passive reading or watching. From there, the conversation turns to artificial intelligence, the central topic of the episode. Ty is careful to clarify that he isn't anti-AI; he uses it daily to clean up grammar, soften prickly emails, and refine images. His concern is specifically about AI replacing the human elements of teaching — the mentor a student looks up to, the instructor who visibly cares whether someone actually learns. Bryan adds a related warning about AI confidently producing false information, citing examples from law and HVAC alike, and introduces the idea of an "AI human sandwich," where human creativity starts the process, AI assists in the middle, and a human vets and rehumanizes whatever comes out the other end. Much of the discussion circles back to Ty's long-standing frustration with PowerPoint-driven training, and how AI threatens to make that problem worse by adding a synthetic avatar to read slides aloud instead of fixing the underlying issue. He recounts being written up at a previous job for skipping a PowerPoint lecture to take students into the lab, and shares a favorite teaching memory from Kalos, where an instructor named Burt used the Socratic method to walk trainees through assembling Unistrut by hand. Stories like the blower-wheel, set-screw lesson — where students learn far more by struggling through a mistake than by hearing the right answer recited to them — reinforce the episode's larger argument: hands-on repetition simply cannot be replaced by slides or scripts. The episode closes on the mission of the GRIT Foundation and the broader case for investing in human mentors rather than administrative shortcuts. Ty and Bryan talk about the cost and effort behind genuinely human-made training videos from creators like Craig Migliaccio and SkillCat, contrasting that investment with how easily AI could fake the same content for far less. Bryan shares a personal story about teaching basic electrical work in Haiti and the unforgettable reaction of an elderly student who lit up the moment her circuit worked, while Ty reflects on the mentors who shaped his own career. Both agree that AI can support trades education, but it can never substitute for a person who genuinely cares whether someone learns. Topics Covered Why trades education is fundamentally about people, not the transfer of information Where AI genuinely helps: grammar and tone, reassembling ideas, image editing, and basic legal or HR research The line Ty draws — using AI to assist a person is fine, using it to replace one is not The risk of AI confidently presenting false information, and why everything still has to be fact-checked Bryan's "AI human sandwich" framework for using the tool responsibly Ty's long-running critique of PowerPoint-heavy training and how AI avatars make the problem worse Classroom stories: getting written up for skipping a PowerPoint, the blower-wheel set-screw lesson, and Bert's Socratic-method exercise with Unistrut at Kalos The GRIT Foundation's commitment to hands-on, mentor-led learning over app-based or AI-generated content The human effort behind training videos from creators like Craig Migliaccio and SkillCat Personal mentorship stories, including a memorable lesson in Haiti and the mentors who shaped both guests' careers   Learn more about the GRIT Foundation at https://www.thegritfoundation.com/.  Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

Today is part 2 of listener questions and we spend a lot of time talking about the monumental nature of doing an Ironman. Is it absurd, simply a conquest, or a means to an end? There are tons of little training nuggets weaved inside of this cast, including, how to build an effective swim training package, is it worth the time and effort to be your absolute best in this sport? Triathlon vs. other priorities, and Taper combined with race week stress. We definitely hit on many interesting topics including weak feet and Lionel Sanders syndrome. Topics: Weak feet . . . make weak men . . . make weak times? Lionel Sanders syndrome Skill, speed, strength as a combo Swim technique sessions Giving up the watch in the pool Training to train or get better? Training for what's on top of your chin When does the absurdity of Ironman go away? Why people come back to this sport over and over Thoughts on leaving performance on the table What's your best potential at your age? What is your real goal Two priorities at a time Taper week decisions Race week stress Relieving stress or getting more tired? It's easy to forget how many Ironman questions there really are.

In this episode of the Uploft Interior Design Podcast, I shared what's been happening in both my professional and personal life, from feeling disappointed by the latest season of America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders to searching for new shows to watch during the reality TV lull. I talked about the challenges of juggling multiple client presentations, including the frustrations of sourcing commercial furniture and balancing bold design ideas with client expectations. I also reflected on training a talented new designer and answered several of her thoughtful questions about communicating effectively with clients, emphasizing my favorite approach of asking them to "tell me more" to better understand their needs. Finally, I shared a couple of funny stories about putting my foot in my mouth with clients, reminding myself—and other designers—that when an idea doesn't resonate, the best thing to do is pivot gracefully and focus on creating solutions that truly work for the client.

Summer training has a way of turning simple runs into big questions: Why is my pace suddenly slower, how do I stay safe in the heat, and what actually matters in the first weeks of a runDisney build? We sit down with our friend Coach Chris Twiggs to get real answers you can use right away, whether you're gearing up for Wine & Dine, Marathon Weekend, or dreaming about Dopey.Chris takes us from the mountains to the sidewalks, starting with the Hard Rock 100, a legendary 100-mile loop in Colorado with 33,000 feet of climbing, high-altitude reality, and the famous finish-line rule: you kiss the rock. From there, we move to the training most of us are doing now. We talk consistency over speed, how to stop comparing yourself to last season, and why “pixie dust” is not a training plan even when the races are full of magic.The heart of the conversation is heat training and performance. We break down what heat does to your body, how to acclimate on purpose, and how to cool yourself during runs. Chris shares clear red flags to stop a workout, plus hydration and electrolyte cues that too many runners miss. We also cover treadmill strategy, long-run pacing as a speed limit, and why your treadmill is usually more trustworthy than your watch indoors.We also spotlight the Miles To Go 5K in Orlando (with a virtual option) and celebrate race weekend stories, including Nannah's first marathon at Grandma's Marathon and her mom's half marathon PR.

Socks are the #1 most requested item at homeless shelters. Dave Heath turned that single fact into Bombas — a one-for-one apparel brand that's donated over 200 million items of clothing and built a billion-dollar business along the way. What makes Dave a builder worth studying isn't just the scale; it's the discipline behind it: reverse-engineering an exceptional product from a mission, learning to test before betting, and protecting a brand as it grows.In this episode, I sit down with Dave to break down:• How he reverse-engineered an "exceptional product" from a donation mission — and brought athletic-sock innovation to the mass market• The Shark Tank breakout: from $800K to $2M in revenue in the six weeks after airing — and why ~20% of customers still affiliate Bombas with the show• The expensive lesson of expanding into adjacent products too fast — and the MVP-testing discipline that replaced it• Why the "obvious" extensions (underwear, t-shirts) underperformed while a sleeper bet (slippers) became 20% of the business• Radical-ish transparency: telling the whole company about a planned IPO and trusting adults to keep it quiet — and they did• The mark of a great founder: the self-awareness to evolve his own role as the company scaled, and how he screened his successor for humility• How Bombas is approaching AI — getting the whole company trained on Claude and Claude Code, and why building AI as a competency beat chasing shiny enterprise toolsBig thanks to Dave for coming on the pod and sharing the playbook — and the mindset — behind Bombas.⏱️ Chapter Markers:00:00 — Intro.

Host Lindsey Elizabeth Cortes interviews Brittany Miller, a certified sports nutritionist with SwimStrong Dryland who supports swimmers worldwide through a largely virtual program offering strength training, nutrition, wellness, mentorship, and mental skills for athletes from age group to Olympians. Miller shares her personal history of underfueling in softball, later developing restrictive and binge patterns before improving through Precision Nutrition and ASPDA connections, emphasizing scope and referrals to sports dietitians when needed. They discuss swimmer-specific challenges including hidden sweat/hydration, indoor training and low vitamin D, non-weight-bearing bone density risk, early morning two-a-days and underfueling, short recovery windows, nervous stomach at meets, and using interactive, competitive education activities to make nutrition engaging for youth athletes. Brittany Miller is a certified sports nutritionist through Precision Nutrition and the National Academy of Sports Medicine, and is an allied health professional through the American Sports and Performance Dietitians Association. She's been working with swim athletes for over 7 years, from age groupers to Olympians. She and her team at SwimStrong Dryland inspire and change the lives of competitive swimmers through strength training, nutrition & wellness, mentorship and care. As a lifelong athlete, she loves to equip young swimmers with practical knowledge and tools that lead to better performance, more fun, and lifelong habits. Brittany lives on the northside of Indianapolis with her amazing husband, two kids and maltese poodle.

Most of us have heard that we need to exercise more, but today, exercise physiologist Dr Stacy Sims digs into what kind of training actually moves the needle for women — and why longer, slower workouts may be leaving results on the table. We get into the real difference between high-intensity interval training and sprint interval training, why the Norwegian 4x4 is one of the most efficient tools for building VO2 max, how to structure a full week of training across just three days, and why your wearable's heart rate zones are probably misleading you more than helping you. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why high-intensity and sprint interval training are not the same thing — and why the distinction matters What the Norwegian 4x4 actually is and why it's so effective for VO2 max How to combine strength, sprint, and cardio work into just three sessions a week Why resistance training and high-intensity work should be prioritised over Zone 2 if you're short on time The truth about BDNF, brain health, and why you need both a seed and the miracle grow Why wrist-worn heart rate monitors consistently fail during high-intensity efforts What Zone 2 actually is — and why most people are training too hard to be in it Why 10,000 steps is a marketing figure, not a science target Why "Zone Zero" has no basis in exercise physiology VALUABLE RESOURCES Watch the full podcast here: https://youtu.be/2SWU8_KDFmc Take the BioSyncing Quiz to help you understand what's actually happening in your body — and how to fix it.

Joined on this episode by the one and only Steve Prziborowski, retired Deputy Chief with the Santa Clara County Fire Department who continues to shape the fire service as an instructor with Chabot College and the National Fire Academy. A respected mentor to many, Steve spends much of his time coaching and developing firefighters and officers at all ranks.Steve has spoken across the country, authored multiple career development books, and has become a recognized voice in the fire service on leadership, succession planning, and preparing the next generation of fire service professionals.On this episode, we will get into what it truly means to be here for "them", the people we serve and the people we lead. We will discuss building and maintaining relationships, mentoring, passing the baton to those coming behind us, and why every firefighter is both a leader and a follower regardless of rank.We will also dive into leadership versus management, strategic versus tactical thinking, and why understanding the expectations of the ranks above you matters, even if promotion is not part of your plan. Which will lead us right into promotion... why not everyone needs to promote, and why those who choose that path should do it for the right reasons.The live audience helps drive the discussion and we dive down all the rabbit holes their questions open up!Episode 360 made possible by our incredible sponsors:  FireStationFurniture.com  -  Snap-Tite Hose   -  and Flame Decon

Pitts sets the market Detroit must face The Atlanta Falcons just changed the tight end economy. They signed Kyle Pitts to a three-year, $54 million extension with $36 million guaranteed. It is the richest three-year deal ever for an NFL tight end. That number immediately matters to the Detroit Lions and Sam LaPorta. Recent comps drive negotiations. The Detroit Lions Podcast digs into what this means. By annual average value, George Kittle and McBride sit at the top tier. Pitts now lands at $16 million per year. The next band is where Detroit will hunt comps for LaPorta: Isaiah Likely at three years and $40 million with $26 million guaranteed, Mark Andrews at roughly $13.9 million per year, Dalton Schultz at $12.6 million, and Cole Kmet at $12.5 million. As much as Detroit likes LaPorta, he has been roughly in that neighborhood with Kmet. Will he take that number to stay in Detroit? Expect him to aim higher after the Pitts deal. Usage and value in Detroit's offense Context matters. McBride earned heavy usage in Drew Petzing's system in Arizona. That led many to assume a similar spike for LaPorta under Petzing in Detroit. It could happen, but the situations are different. McBride was the best player on that offense. In Detroit, LaPorta is not even the third-best offensive piece. Jahmyr Gibbs and Penei Sewell are central pillars. Jameson Williams offers higher peak plays even if the week-to-week is still building. That distribution of talent can cap volume and, in turn, price. LaPorta brings real value beyond catches. His blocking stacks up well, better than Pitts in this discussion. Pitts also aligns outside as a receiver often, while LaPorta plays a more traditional tight end role. Those distinctions will surface in negotiations as both sides frame what they are paying for. Numbers, guarantees, and timing A practical floor sits around Likely's deal: three years, $40 million, $26 million guaranteed. A target from the player side could be three years, $50 million with $35 million guaranteed. A logical counter from the team lands near three years, $48 million at $16 million per year. With the Lions, guarantees are the meat. Expect creative structure with void years to spread cap hits. That is how Detroit handles these mid-length veteran deals. Health will guide the calendar. LaPorta is working back from the back injury that ended last season. He was on the field last week but not yet full go. The staff also wants Brian Branch healthy and contributing. If that holds, do not expect an immediate extension. Training camp will be the first checkpoint. A more natural window sits near the bye or toward the end of summer. September 21 feels like a soft boundary. By then, Detroit should know LaPorta's role and output in Petzing's offense. The hard choice no one wants One prevailing viewpoint around the league is that if Detroit must let someone walk among pending extension candidates, tight end is the easiest to replace. That argument has merit on roster-building grounds. Even so, the intent is to keep LaPorta. Pitts' new deal just sharpened the pencil. Now the Lions must decide how far they will go to match it. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #samlaportacontract #kylepittsextension #tightendmarket #lionscontracts #overthecap #treymcbride Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the best time of the year, and we brought that energy into this great episode! We started by bringing out our big predictions and hot takes for the Western States 100. The hottest take: everything about our understanding of endurance physiology is going to change on Saturday. We tell you why.We also talked about a new study asking a fascinating question: does the intensity of easy training matter for adaptations? The answer: not really, if overall stress is equalized. Our main conclusion is that no pace is too slow for aerobic development. And this one was full of awesome topics! Other topics: switching heart rate monitors with a training partner, our complex thoughts on AI coaching, AI body scans, new data on trail supershoes crowning a possible champion, the perils of optimization based on studies, a cool study on human-wildlife conflict, competitiveness v. ego, burping in races, and a beautiful Listener Corner message. Whenever you're having a bad day, remember: there might be a thicc zebra waiting for you on the carousel of life.We love you all!

Spartan Race started as an idea written on a napkin during a financial crisis. No business plan. Limited money. No guarantee any of it would work. Brian Duncanson, one of the original architects behind Spartan, sits down with Joe De Sena to walk through the real origin story: a meeting in Hartford in December 2009, the decision to fire before aiming, and a ragtag team that turned mud and barbed wire into a global brand operating in 45 countries.   They break down the Fenway Stadium gamble Joe did not want to take, the pandemic pivot that forced DECA into a box, and why the strongest ideas at Spartan came when resources were thinnest. Brian also introduces his book, Becoming Spartan: Leveraging Friction to Forge, Scale, and Outlast, and explains what seventeen years of building under pressure taught him about action, constraint, and the 1% daily grind. Things You Will Learn: Why the strongest business innovations at Spartan came from resource constraints rather than abundance. The fire-ready-aim approach that turned a napkin sketch into a global endurance brand during a financial crisis. What breaking a massive goal into checkpoint-sized commitments does for focus, execution, and follow-through. Tools & Frameworks Covered: Two Bike Math: When you lose a resource, the team that adapts fastest wins. Constraint forces innovation you would never find in comfort. Fire Ready Aim: Stop planning. Launch small. Test in the market. Adjust under pressure. The plan improves only after contact with reality. Checkpoint Navigation: Break the hundred-mile goal into five-mile segments. Solve the first one. Then move to the next. Momentum compounds.   If this episode moved you, do not just listen. Do something about it. Sign up. Show up. Do the work. Spartan.com. No more excuses.

Having competed in more than 50 adventure races while producing over 150 race events, Brian has built a life around resilience, leadership, and taking on difficult challenges. His story highlights endurance, adaptability, and the mindset required to keep showing up when things get hard.
