Podcasts about Uphill

Send us a textBroadway marketer turned playwright Cameron Scott came onto Playwright's Spotlight after I received his submission to PLAY Noir to talk about his later-in-life start to playwriting. In this conversation, we delve into what the definition of a writer is, a play being a living thing, audio plays vs stage plays and a play's transition from audio to stage, and setting time aside and finding opportunities to write. We also discuss staging in unconventional locations, being a minimalist playwright, overnight success, and the new trend of streaming Broadway shows. It's great, energetic conversation that proves it's never too late to start. Just write. Enjoy!Cameron Scott has worked with Broadway's top producers to create brand campaigns for well over 100 productions including 17 Tony Award-winning Best Plays, Best Musicals, and Best Revivals.

In this episode of the Uphill Athlete Podcast, host Steve House is joined by in-house dietitian Alyssa Leib to explore the crucial role of nutrition in athletic recovery. They debunk common myths around overtraining and emphasize that under-recovery, often due to poor nutrition, is a very common issue. Alyssa highlights the importance of sufficient calorie, protein, and especially carbohydrate intake, along with timing meals around workouts to optimize performance and healing. They discuss recovery strategies like drinking milk before bed, magnesium supplementation, and using antioxidant-rich foods like tart cherry juice among others. They underscore that good nutrition and quality sleep are the foundation of successful recovery for mountain athletes.Visit us at uphillathlete.com or write to us at coach@uphillathelte.com to connect with Alyssa and learn more about our nutrition offerings.

Running an online business sometimes feels like like walking to and from your destination uphill, both ways. This shit takes a hell of a lot of work and—especially at the beginning of your journey—often the amount of work you're putting in doesn't feel commensurate with the amount of money you're making. I won't lie, all […]

We had a ridiculous amount of fun recording this episode! The main science topic was on a new pre-print study on post-exercise ketones, showing higher carb storage and lower glycemia in athletes taking them. Is it possible that high carb has a special interaction with post-exercise ketones that might be at the heart of recent performances? It's uncertain. We just take them because we like the taste of robot butt.We also had a big breakdown of the cost of high-carb fueling. Megan did calculations on the price per gram of carbohydrates of different fueling sources, from gels to drink to at-home creations. It seems like some companies are giving you amazing deals, and some... are not. We name names.And this one was full of great topics! Other topics: heat training, a promo for the Core 2 sensor, David's post-race knee pain and the uncertainty of being an athlete, total energy expenditure during and after ultras, thoughts on the Cocodona 250, Stephanie Case's remarkable performance at Ultra Trail Snowdonia, plus a Q+A on depletion runs and a how-to on uphill treadmill.May your pantry be full of carbs and your secret drawer be full of SECRET hair.We love you all!

In this podcast episode, Lukas Furtenbach, founder of Furtenbach Adventures, and Steve House discuss Lukas' work in high-altitude expedition mountaineering. They discuss the development of hypoxic pre-acclimatization techniques and how technologies like xenon gas are being used to reduce expedition durations. The conversation addresses the ethical debates around these technologies, commercialization of Everest, and the reasons behind Lukas' decision to utilize xenon gas in a ground breaking expedition beginning in May. This is part two in the Uphill Athlete podcast series surrounding the discussion of the use of xenon in mountaineering.

Cellulite is a disruption of the connective tissue and fascia under your skin. Cellulite typically occurs only on the thighs and buttocks and doesn't occur on the stomach, arms, or breast tissue. An enzyme involved in menstruation is often responsible for this disruption in collagen. If you only focus on losing weight without rebuilding the collagen in your legs, you will still have cellulite!Consuming collagen will provide the raw materials, but will not correct the problem. To reduce cellulite, you must restore the connective tissue. Green coffee bean oil, which is often formulated with retinol, collagen, and green tea extract, can help reduce cellulite. The connective tissue responsible for cellulite formation is highly responsive to mechanical stress. The best exercise for cellulite is intense, so it's important to gradually ease into it with lower impact cellulite exercises.These cellulite exercises stimulate new layers of connective tissue to tone legs and reduce cellulite. Slow squats and step-down lunges are two of the best leg and glute workouts for reducing cellulite. You can also perform box jumps or jump rope, depending on your fitness level. The best exercise for cellulite also burns subcutaneous and visceral fat. To start, look for a hill that's a bit uneven. Start by walking up the hill and finish by sprinting uphill for about ten to twenty seconds. Uphill sprinting significantly stimulates new connective tissue because it requires intense stabilization from your body. It takes time to get rid of cellulite because your body needs time to regrow collagen and connective tissue. To see results, expect to perform these cellulite exercises for six months to a year. Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting. He is the author of the best-selling book The Healthy Keto Plan, and is the Director of Dr. Berg Nutritionals. He no longer practices, but focuses on health education through social media.

In this episode, host Steve House sits down with Dr. Peter Hackett, a pioneer in high-altitude medicine, to discuss the potential use of xenon gas as a performance enhancer for mountaineers. Xenon, once used as an anesthetic, is a noble gas that may briefly stimulate erythropoietin (EPO) but lacks solid evidence of improving red blood cell count or performance. Dr. Hackett explains the risks of unsupervised xenon use and stresses the importance of controlled research before drawing conclusions. He shares skepticism around current anecdotal claims, especially without peer-reviewed data. The episode emphasizes safety, science, and honesty in altitude medicine. This is the first part of a two-part series on the use of Xenon in mountaineering.

No matter how many I had walked, there were still more to walk. Uphill, across hot, dry plains, and then the rains in the mountains that turned everything to muck and ankle-twisting rubble. I kept hearing “Just goes to show you, it's always something! If it ain't one thing it's another!” a mantra about life from Gilda Radner's father, for her SNL character Roseanne Roseannadanna.The voice in my head asked: “Well, Diane, what did you expect? You're walking a pilgrimage. Beyond the miles are more miles.”A TIP: I had to learn that the way out is through. Stop thinking that you will enjoy a trouble-free pilgrimage. Dive into the audacity of what you've chosen to do! Let go of trying to get free of the aches and pains, complications, limitations, and disappointments. They are part and parcel of what you said you wanted: to be a pilgrim. These problems are the pilgrimage. Now what? How will you solve them? Don't just start over. Keep starting over. And then look back on what you achieved.  Question: What do you do when faced with “It's always something”?Be well, do good work and keep in touch! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

He emphasizes the importance of understanding intensity zones and how they affect training and racing strategies. The episode is divided into three main chapters: understanding pace management, training strategies for uphill and downhill running, and race day strategies for managing pace. Boyd provides practical advice on how to adjust pace based on terrain and workout type, highlighting the significance of heart rate and effort in training.TakeawaysYou should not hold the same pace when running uphill.The goal is to expose your body to a specific intensity stimulus.Use heart rate as a target for endurance runs.For interval sessions, use pace as your target metric.Effort should be the prescribed metric for hill workouts.Adjust your pace based on the terrain during races.Maintain a consistent effort level throughout the race.Monitor your splits to gauge performance during races.Choose the flattest location possible for interval workouts.Understanding intensity zones is crucial for effective training.

Kadarian ‘KD’ Hill has a powerful testimony as he shares how a little boy with a big dream became a powerful man with an even bigger dream. At a very young age, KD Hill discovered football and passion for the game. With the help of his single mom, who worked hard to provide for herself and her young son, he learned the game and became a powerful force playing defense for an SEC powerhouse! While on that journey, he became an award-winning defensive tackle. Yet, his dream was to play in the NFL. After his final season playing for the Ole Miss Rebels, and with his dream seemingly coming to fruition, he began a targeted training program and garnered the interest of several NFL teams. On and off the field he had proved himself to be the man and athlete he had always dreamed of being. However, in order to provide for his family while continue to train for the NFL draft, KD was driving a truck late one night when the unthinkable happened. On the morning of July 21, 2023 around 4:30 AM, just outside of Cullman, Alabama, everything changed concerning his NFL Dream. In a matter of the seconds that it takes for an accident to happen, KD found himself pinned in the truck with his right leg smashed by the dashboard of the freightliner he was driving. Within 10 minutes the state trooper was on the scene of the accident and more help was on the way, KD was given the news that, for him to be freed from the truck, part of his right leg would have to be amputated. The surgeon arrived on the scene, freed KD from the truck and the dream of a career in the NFL ended. However, KD knew that God was his refuge and source of strength in his time of trouble no matter what came next, as football wasn’t KD’s only dream, and it wasn’t God’s ultimate plan for his life. Today, KD is a successful motivational speaker speaking to football teams and business organizations and sharing his story of hope, overcoming challenges, and finding success after tragedy. He has been a guest on Good Morning America and is loving life while living out a dream bigger than he ever had before. A now author of his memoir titled, The UpHill Climb: The KD Hill Story, KD will be sure to inspire you through today’s conversation with his practical perspective shifts and resounding hope and faith in a God who has EVERYTHING within His control!

While the Department of Government Efficiency looks to tighten the belt on spending, Americans are noticing the speed at which they're working towards making cuts. Former Congressman Garret Graves (R-LA) notes that although DOGE's effort seems aggressive, the U.S. is on an unsustainable financial trajectory.  Through DOGE's recent work, they have uncovered the Biden administrations misuse of taxpayers' dollars, which Garret argues that just because it has merit doesn't mean it needs funding from U.S. taxpayer dollars.  Uphill battle: President Trump has announced that he wants to eliminate the Federal Emergency Management Agency due to its alleged inability to help those recover from major disasters. To avoid potentially being cut, FEMA must find ways to sustain itself more efficiently and cheaper.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
