The key to lasting love is more than just chemistry, it's really knowing how you (and your partner) handle conflict. It's communication, emotional intelligence and how you handle stress that builds a lasting connection and relationship  In Episode 394 of The Charisma Quotient, "Stop Dating the Wrong People: Decode Your Conflict Style with Dr. John Elliot,” Kimmy is joined by Dr. John Elliot, an acclaimed psychologist, conflict resolution expert, and co-author of "How to Get Along With Anyone." With a career spanning consulting for NASA, the US Olympic Committee, the Mayo Clinic, Fortune 500 companies, and appearances in outlets like The New York Times and ESPN, Dr. Elliot is uniquely equipped to reveal why true relationship success depends on how you both show up when the going gets tough—not just when it's smooth sailing. Together, Kimmy and Dr. Elliot break down the five conflict personality styles—the Avoider, Competitor, Analyzer, Collaborator, and Accommodator—explaining the habits, triggers, and communication patterns that come out when tension rises. You'll hear actionable advice on how to identify your own (and others') conflict styles, why some personality pairings struggle while others thrive, and how to turn moments of tension into lasting intimacy instead of drama or distance. They discuss why your "must-have list" should go beyond looks or job titles, and how picking up on someone's conflict style early can save you heartache down the road.  You'll hear: The “five conflict personality styles”—discover if you're an Avoider, Competitor, Analyzer, Collaborator, or Accommodator (and why it matters so much!)  How mismatched conflict styles sabotage romantic chemistry—and what style pairings work best for long-term happiness Real stories from pro sports, high-stakes business, and dating that illustrate these personality clashes and how they're resolved Simple, practical tools and mindset shifts to help you attract, connect with, and keep truly compatible partners If you've ever felt stuck repeating the same painful patterns, or want to break free from being an overgiver, people-pleaser, or the “nice guy,” book a FREE private breakthrough call with Kimmy:  https://meetme.so/kimbreakthrough⁣ Charisma Quotient Podcast is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and many of your other favorite podcast channels. ************************************************⁣ Kimmy Seltzer is a Confidence Therapist and Authentic Dating Strategist implementing targeted style, emotional and social intelligence to your life. ⁣ ************************************************⁣ Would you like to connect with Kimmy?⁣ Website:  https://kimmyseltzer.com/⁣ Chat:  https://meetme.so/kimbreakthrough⁣ Instagram: @kimmyseltzer Twitter: @kimmyseltzer Join her FREE Facebook Group Love Makeover Insiders:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/lovemakeovers Take her Flirt Quiz to see what kind of flirt you are www.flirtover40.com

How to Get Along with Anyone: The Playbook for Predicting and Preventing Conflict at Work and at Home by John Eliot, Jim Guinn Theconflictdocs.com Amazon.com Defuse any heated conflict by learning which of the five conflict styles you are and how to resolve even the most sensitive dispute with this must-read guide. The average American worker spends 156 hours a year engaged in the kind of moderate to intense workplace conflict that adversely impacts both performance and health. Managers spend twenty-six percent of their time addressing and resolving conflicts on their team—the equivalent of chewing up one full workday each week. But what if it didn't need to be like this? What if there was a way to spend less time in stressfully interpersonal interactions and more time on the things that really matter? Through three decades of building and facilitating team chemistry for Fortune 500 companies, professional sports franchises, schools, government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and families—Drs. Jim Guinn and John Eliot have reduced the time and cost of conflict resolution. With this on-the-ground experience combined with industry-leading science and research, Guinn and Eliot discovered people respond to conflict in one of five ways: avoid, compete, analyze, collaborate, or accommodate. Because our responses are ingrained byproducts of the subcortex in action, they are predictable. If you can predict how someone will behave in a given circumstance, you can formulate a game plan. The secret is knowing which of the five patterns someone is wired to use when smacked by a stressor. How to Get Along with Anyone is a pragmatic hands-on book to help you determine conflict types so you can navigate the arguments that emerge in day-to-day life. You'll learn the formula for identifying your coworkers' and loved ones' conflict styles and how to use this information to foster better communication and more effective, collaboration. Filled with fun, engaging examples and actionable techniques, How to Get Along with Anyone teaches you how to predict and prevent escalated conflict, arming you with practical tools for flipping the script on sticking points to nurture stronger and more meaningful relationships.ABOUT THE AUTHORS DR.

In episode #275, we're revisiting one of the highlights of last year's TCS Live conference. International speaker, best-selling author and Founder of the Changing the Game Project John O'Sullivan took to the stage to share how to take your coaching from transactional to transformational. O'Sullivan has dedicated his life to enhancing the experience kids have with youth sports by educating and inspiring the adults in the equation, namely their coaches and parents. He's been featured on CNN, ESPN and NBC Sports, along with speaking at TEDx, and to the US Olympic Committee, US Soccer, USA Wrestling, USA Swimming, US Ski and Snowboard, Ireland Rugby and Australian Rugby League. And with that in mind, Our team at The Coaches Site are excited to announce that we have collaborated with John on a course focused on the How To's of Transformational Coaching. You can learn more about the course here. Listen as he shares why great coaches win the relationship game, why we must be outcome aware but driven by process, and why every coach has the ability to change a person's life for the better.

Youth sports are more than just games—they foster personal growth and shape future success. They teach values like teamwork and resilience that impact both personal and professional development. For parents, it's a balancing act between supporting their child and trusting the coach's role in building character. These shared experiences strengthen family bonds, while also preparing young athletes to navigate challenges both on and off the field. In this episode, I am joined by Dr. Jerry Lynch and John O'Sullivan, the authors of The Champion Sports Parent.  Our Guests John O'Sullivan is a TEDx speaker and founder of the Changing the Game Project, which he launched in 2012. He's the author of two bestselling books, Changing the Game and Every Moment Matters, and hosts the popular Way of Champions podcast.

He serves on advisory boards for the Positive Coaching Alliance and the National Association for Physical Literacy. Dr. Jerry Lynch is a former Nike-sponsored athlete and national champion who transformed his experience into a career coaching elite athletes. He has worked with NBA teams, Major League Soccer, and top universities like Duke and Stanford. Dr. Lynch, author of 15 books, founded the Way of Champions, a performance consulting group. Recognized as one of the top in his field, he focuses on leadership, culture building, and personal growth in sports and life.

I'm a Canon shooter… I shoot an R6 and an R5. So, I have been curious about the new Canon R1, and a little less so about the R5 Mark II. Still, I had written off watching the announcement, because it was at something like 3am my time… but, I happened to be up anyway so I watched it, and I ended up with some serious opinions on both the new gear and the presentation itself. There's no question these cameras are in demand, even though the R5 Mark II retails for $4,300 and the R1 for a whopping $6,300. The R5 Mark II is already backordered to early Sept, and B&H says the Release Date for the R1 is estimated as Nov 26th. Very few people have had the chance to try out the R5 Mark II and R1, and those that have didn't get much time with them. A few photographers were given pre-release bodies to use at the Olympics, and luckily for us one of them is a friend of the show. I knew Jeff was going to be using the R5 Mark II and R1 at the Paris Olympics, it was semi-public knowledge, so before he left I asked if he would come back on the show to give us his thoughts. He agreed to do a recap, and so today we will dive into his experiences under the real world pressure of photographing the Olympics for Team USA. Jeff has been on the show a few times before. First for the episode Capture the Action, and then to talk about his experiences at the Tokyo Olympics for the show on Real World Use of the Canon R3. On the chance that you didn't see either of those shows, let me introduce you to my friend Jeff Cable... Photographing the Olympics has got to be the pinnacle of a sports photographer's career, and for Jeff Cable it's one he's reached many times, having now photographed the last 8 Olympics for Team USA. I am always amazed by how many photographers either come from, or are in some way involved with, the tech industry. For more than 25 years, Jeff was a marketing executive at companies like Symantec, Magellan, and Micron, but while traveling the world for his corporate job, his interest and passion for photography grew quickly. He left the corporate world in 2016 to dedicate himself full-time to his photography. Since then, Jeff has earned respect around the globe for his creative images, and for sharing his love of photography with others. He's best known for capturing photos for the US Olympic Committee, photographing the last eight Olympic games, in Beijing, Vancouver, London, Sochi, Rio de Janeiro, PyeongChang, Tokyo, and Paris. As an educator, Jeff also leads photo tours where he teaches photo enthusiasts and professionals around the world. He has taught in Africa, Australia, China, Europe, Central and South America, and across the United States, and has upcoming tours, through 2024 and 2025, to San Francisco, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam, Tanzania (African Safari), Japan, Botswana, and Alaska. Join me in welcoming Sports and Event Photographer Jeff Cable back to the show, as we talk about his real world experience at this year's Paris Olympics with a pre-production Canon EOS R1 and pre-production R5 Mark II, on this episode of Behind the Shot. CORRECTION: Thanks to Mike in the YouTube comments for pointing out that I was incorrect when I referred to the R5 II as having cross-type AF. The R1 does, but the R5 II does not. Sorry about the mistake. How Did the Canon R1, Canon R5 MKII and new lenses REALLY do at the Olympics?

Zig appeared with Dan Abrams on NewsNation to address these concerns about Biden and relied on his "Internal Clock" to close out the segment (1:00-21:00).

This is our 200th show anniversary and we couldn't do anything more special than this. It is happening again! A McBryde sister is being denied an opportunity she rightfully earned. Jamilah McBryde, the oldest of the three McBryde Sisters who wrestle, is the reigning 143lb Women's Freestyle NAIA National Champion. With that amazing accomplishment comes the opportunity to compete for a spot on the US Women's Olympic Wrestling team. If allowed to attend the Olympic Qualifiers, Jamilah could be the first woman in the world to compete as a wrestler at the Olympic level in hijab. However, Jamilah is being denied the right to compete, and a McBryde sister is once again being robbed of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - one that she fairly earned. I will have Jamilah her father and hopefully a UWW spokesperson on the show (I wouldn't hold your breath) If you want to help sign the petition below. If your as mad as me you can write everyone on Email list below https://www.change.org/p/urge-usa-wre... Please share this petition far and wide. Share it with friends and family. Share it on social media. Tag news outlets and sports influencers. We want the world to know what UWW, USA Wrestling, and the US Olympic Committee are doing in 2024.

So World Athletics made an announcement this week that will no doubt send ripples throughout other global sporting organisations - and give ammunition to those who claim the Olympics aren't worth the bother anymore - by announcing they would pay track and field gold medallists at the Paris Olympics $50,000 (USD). Understandably, the first question asked was if this move violated the Olympic spirit? This is, after all, the first time in the 128 years of the modern Olympics that athletes will receive prize money for topping the podium. Now, once upon a time when sport was truly amateur, I may have agreed prize money was not in the Olympic spirit. But in 2024, when many professional sports people perform at the Olympics - think golf, tennis and basketball - I'm more inclined to say, why not? Why shouldn't the athletes take a share of the revenue the International Olympic Committee (IOC) distributes to World Athletics? Track and field is a massive drawcard. Surely those who provide the entertainment should benefit from it? They‘re not being paid to train for four years, so nothing changes in the lead up to the Olympics. While it's no doubt nice to get, I doubt it will be the overwhelming motivation for athletes. I'm making an assumption here - I'm no Olympian - but the work and sacrifice it takes to compete against the best at the Olympics is likely enough in itself for most. If you asked New Zealand track and field athletes if they do it for money I'm guessing the answer would be no. If they were about the money they'd do better to get other jobs; one's with a salary. The IOC was blindsided by the announcement and quick to issue a statement reminding us it's up to each sport's governing body to decide how to spend their share of Olympic revenue. Apparently, up to 90 percent of all the IOC's income is redistributed to help athletes and the development of sport. If World Athletics believe they can support their sport and rewards gold medallists, good on them. Many gold medallists are already renumerated for their performances – by either their country, their Olympic and Paralympic Committees, or sponsorships. The US Olympic Committee paid gold, silver and bronze medallists between $37,500 (USD) and $15,000 (USD) at the last games. Some countries offer more. Hong Kong offered roughly $638,000 (USD). Here in NZ, High Performance NZ hands out $60,000 to gold medallists, which is pretty good, and you may also get to help flog some lamb. Some countries offer nothing. So why not share the profits with those who reach the top, as long as the sport in general is also being supported? While there is a list of criticisms about the Olympics, such as how they manage drug cheats, which sports are added or removed, and whether triathletes should have to swim in dodgy waters - I just can't wait for the games to begin on the 26th July. It's almost impossible not to get drawn into the drama that will unfold over the roughly 16 Olympic days. We'll get to share the highest of highs and the lowest of lows, heart-warming underdog stories and heart-breaking missed opportunities. It will give us a wonderful distraction in the heart of winter.

Reagan informed us that his original marathon race boat was the first glass boat constructed by Bob Patterson of Patterson Boats. The flatbottom was equipped with a V-drive and a single overhead cam Ford engine built by Holman and Moody. In the early '80s, Reagan collaborated with Larry Smith, the owner of Scarab boats, and initiated a series of endurance runs as fundraisers for charitable organizations. Reagan's most notable achievement was his "Assault on the Mississippi" where he broke the record for the 1,027-mile run from New Orleans to St. Louis, making the trip in 25 hours. With financial backing from sponsors Bud Light, W.R. Grace, Descente Clothing, and Justice Brothers, the run raised $500,000 for the US Olympic Committee. Reagan's 38 ft. Scarab was powered by three of the newly released 430hp V-8 Evinrudes. Following an illustrious career as a conservative radio talk show host, bestselling author, and political speaker, Reagan now serves as the president of the Reagan Legacy Foundation, which he established to commemorate his father's achievements and to educate and inspire people worldwide to cherish freedom and liberty.

Remember, you can watch the Superpowers for Good show on e360tv. To watch the episode, download the #e360tv channel app to your streaming device–Roku, AppleTV or AmazonFireTV–or your mobile device. You can even watch it on the web.We recorded this episode in anticipation of airing it on Giving Tuesday; we had to postpone it due to my injury.Devin: What do you see as your superpower?Kishshana: My superpower is the ability to see you. So, one of my strengths is individualization.Kishshana Palmer, founder and CEO of ManageMint, a consulting practice that supports social enterprises, nonprofits and governmental entities, especially schools, joined me to discuss her work.She shared insights across a range of topics, but I particularly valued her thoughts about a vexing problem I see occasionally in the impact sector. Changemakers–including me, if I'm being honest–sometimes excuse poor activities in one area as justified by the pursuit of the mission.For example, it isn't that uncommon for climate change-focused folks to get caught failing to adequately consider the impact of their work on disadvantaged communities. Solar panels are commonly sold to affluent folks who can afford it. It makes perfect sense on the one hand but excludes or ignores less wealthy folks' desire to go green, too.Kishshana says, “When you design for marginalized groups, you almost always design for everyone.” By working to help those who might have the most difficulty being a part of what you're doing, you ensure that everyone can. You expand your audience.She likes to apply the principle across the board, from volunteers, employees and board members to the folks you serve and others who may be impacted directly or indirectly by your work.Kishshana has built her success in part by leveraging her superpower–her ability to see individuals.AI Episode Summary* Kishshana Palmer is a leader in the world of nonprofit social enterprise and the CEO, founder, and leader of ManageMint.* ManageMint is a people-focused, equity-centered change management consulting firm that helps organizations run better, achieve their goals, and take care of their employees.* Kishshana emphasizes the importance of celebrating Giving Tuesday by supporting and investing in local nonprofit organizations.* She believes in the power of seeing and understanding individuals, which is her superpower.* Kishshana coaches organizations to cope with the inherent stress of working on big problems by helping them focus on their purpose and long-term plans.* She encourages organizations to include equity and inclusion in their mission and to design for marginalized groups, as this often benefits everyone.* Kishshana shares a specific example of using her superpower to turn around a challenging organization by getting to know the team and their needs, redesigning job descriptions, and promoting from within.* She advises people to focus on their own wellness and understanding their own strengths and weaknesses before trying to see and understand others.* To learn more about Kishshana's work, visit managemint.co or connect with her on social media at @KishshanaPalmer.* Kishshana's work makes a difference by helping nonprofits and social enterprises be more effective in their work, ultimately benefiting the people they serve.How to Develop Seeing Individuals As a SuperpowerKishshana shared the story of working with a troubled impact organization. Folks hadn't had raises in years, turnover was increasing, and disengagement was rising.She came into the organization with an eye toward getting to know each person and helping to find or define a role that would suit them, allowing them all to feel greater self-actualization in the work.That story illustrates the power of seeing individuals. The organization benefited from having everyone individually fill a role that matched their skills, passions and abilities.To learn to see others, Kishshana says a key is to see yourself more completely and objectively, recommending that you form a personal board of advisors. You need to learn to see how your own behavior contributes to challenges in team dynamics.As you begin to look at others, it is essential to look past the surface and focus on motivations, like dreams and passions, that underlie people's actions. Kishshana says that when you adapt your approach to individuals, you can be more effective.By following Kishshana's example and advice, you can see individuals more effectively. With time and practice, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

For sports fans, there's nothing like being at the stadium and experiencing the roar of the crowd. On the other hand, it's hard to beat your favorite armchair, a big-screen TV, great commentary and a well-stocked fridge. But what if you could have the best of both worlds, and more? In this episode of Connect, we are fortunate to host Dr. Lou Marciani, Director and Co-Founder of the Innovation Institute for Fan Experience (IIFX), to discuss how cutting-edge technology is changing the game for stadiums and creating new, immersive experiences for sports fans and concertgoers alike.

How do you know which athlete plate to choose for your run training? When we refer to athlete's plates, we are talking about using a nutritional tool which helps you decide what and how much food should be on your plate, related to your training and everyday activities. We use athlete plate graphics with our clients to help them plan their food on a day-to-day basis and we often refer to everyday plate balance and athlete plate balance during our conversations on the podcast.Today we'd like to share a little more about the background to the development of the athlete plate concept and explain how you can use them to support your run fueling so you have a sound nutrition foundation for every level of running.This will help your performance, your recovery and support injury prevention. Often people aren't sure which athlete plate to choose so we aim to help you with that today.The key areas we are going to talk are:1. Why were athlete plates created and how using them as a nutritional tool may be supportive to your nutrition and running goals and performance?2. Our interpretation of athlete plates and how we use them with our clients.3. An example of how a runner training for a marathon uses athlete plates for fueling training.Download our FREE E book TOP Running Snacks and Nutrient Timing to Fuel Peak PerformanceSHOW NOTES(05:11)Who created Athlete Plates and why?Athlete Plates were designed as a visual tool by the UCCS - University of Colorado/Colorado Springs (UCCS') Sport Nutrition Graduate Program led by a research scientist Nanna Meyer in collaboration with the US Olympic Committee's (USOC) Food and Nutrition Services.Their aim was to help sports dieticians and athletes to adjust their nutrition to variable training loads when following a periodised training and competition plan. They developed and designed athletes plate graphics for EASY/MODERATE and HARD TRAINING.https://swell.uccs.edu/theathletesplateMore recently they have developed a Vegan/Vegetarian Athletes Platehttps://swell.uccs.edu/vegetarianvegan-athletes-platehttps://swell.uccs.edu/sites/g/files/kjihxj2576/files/2020-10/Airi_Research_Poster-compressed_0.pdf(08:15)What are the main components of the athlete plates? There are 3 main aspects of the traditional athletes plate – Lean PROTEIN, WHOLEGRAINS/GRAINS and VEGETABLES alongside basic information regarding healthy fats, fluids, flavours (herbs/spices/condiments). The concept is to help athletes to choose the correct balance of these food groups to support the level of training they are undertaking.So the base for EASY Training is to eat ¼ plate PROTEIN, ¼ plate whole grains, ½ plate vegetables.For MODERATE training – protein remains the same but whole grains increase to approx. 1/3rd plate with the remainder being vegetables.For HEAVY TRAINING – protein remains the same – ½ plate of grains and ¼ plate vegetables. Note the change from whole grains to grains – this is due to suggesting use of more quick release carbohydrates.(10:11)How does the athlete plate for plant based athletes look?The protein element is approximately 1/3rd plate for each of the athlete plates and this is because you're likely to need a bigger portion of plant protein

I can't believe I have put out 100 episodes.  I truly hope that you have enjoyed listening as much as I enjoy creating them.  Hopefully over these 100 shows you have found a few helpful tips to help you train for your next obstacle course race.  As always I have a great one lined up for you today. It has been a whirlwind week spending spring break in Hawaii and then hopping on a flight to Houston to watch UCONN with the Men's National Championship. It was a great time but I'm definitely feeling it this week trying to catch up. In my research review this week I share an study comparing to training protocols and measuring their effectiveness for muscle size, strength, power, and body composition.  The two strategies used were block periodization and mixed session periodization.  Which one came out on top?  You will have to listen in to see and how you may want to adjust your training plan. In the Inside Mike's Mind segment I share my 3 step process to improving mobility.  If you are like me  you have to work hard to get better mobility.  If you want to see improvements that last, just follow these 3 simple steps. In this episode I interviewed Former Harvard professor and world-renowned clinical researcher Dr. Robert Wolfe. He is also the Co-founder and lead scientist at Amino Co. which was founded by world leaders in amino acid clinical research for the purpose of conducting cutting-edge medical research on amino-acid based products. Amino Co's  research, first funded by NASA, was developed by Dr. Robert R Wolfe and Dr. Wolfe's studies have been conducted with support from competitive research grants from the National Institutes of Health, National Space Biomedical Institute, US Department of Defense, The US Department of Agriculture, as well as the US Olympic Committee, and the International Olympic Committee. We had an incredible chat discussing the role of essential amino acids and research he has conducted in a variety of populations.  We covered older individuals that have issues consuming enough protein and preventing muscle loss, research on army ranger training and dealing in an incredibly stressful and undernourished situation, as well as muscle recover and performance.  I know you will get a ton out of this interview and I was grateful to have Dr. Wolfe share his expertise with me.

This month, we're bringing you the ySUMMIT talks on the podcast! You'll hear from speakers who spoke to students who attended the March for Life in Washington, D.C. in January 2023.This first episode features Laura, whose talk was split into two parts. One about doing life our own way, and one about doing like God's way (this episode is a cohesive blend of both her talks!). The gist of what she hits on is why it is so important to think deeply and rely on God's guidance about the choices we make; without the guidance of God and the Holy Spirit in our lives, we wander into unhealthy relationships, selfish behaviors, and because of our sin nature we make choices that end up harming us more than benefiting us. The second part of her talk features the "redemption" of leaning into relationships the way God would call us to AND practical ways to do this.  Laura was the Director of the Pittsburgh Essential Speakers program at Women's Choice Network, Pittsburgh, PA before the COVID-19 pandemic. To keep getting the “Healthy Relationship” message out to teens during COVID, she authored the video curriculum REAL TALK, which is a video series designed to equip young people with the skills to combat relationship challenges they face in adolescence. She is a native Pittsburgher, graduated with a BS in Psychology/Business from Penn State University, and in her more ‘youthful' days, she was a resident archery athlete at the US Olympic Training Center in CO, made the USA World Archery Team, National Team, and was Archery's Athlete Representative to the US Olympic Committee. After raising two daughters and working in the family manufacturing representative business, she continues to be active in her church and follows closely the sexual challenges teens face in today's culture. Her passion for the abundant life that Christ calls us to is evident in who she is AND the work that she does. Here are some things we mentioned in the podcast:What is the ySUMMIT?Essential Speakers & Real TalkBe sure to stay up to date with Abundant Life: You Were Made for More by visiting our blog - and if you're loving the podcast, send guest recommendations to us or leave us a star-rating/review on your favorite listening platform to spread the word about the you were made for more message.You Were Made for More Social Media: FacebookTwitterInstagram

BIO: Cam F Awesome is a multi-time National Champion Heavyweight Olympic boxer and former USA National Boxing Team Captain. STORY: Cam invested so much time and effort chasing his dream of going to the Olympics. An avalanche of events stole this dream from him, and now he doesn't stand a chance of ever going to the Olympics. LEARNING: There are ups and downs in investing. Persevere and be willing to pivot.   “Just because the goal looks a little different in reality doesn't mean you should stop chasing it.”Cam F Awesome  Guest profilehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/camfawesome/ (Cam F Awesome) is a multi-time National Champion Heavyweight Olympic boxer and former Captain of the USA National Boxing Team. After retiring as the Winningest Boxer in US history, Cam hung up the gloves and picked up a microphone as a Motivational Speaker, Diversity Consultant, Event MC, and Standup Comic. Worst investment everCam's goal had always been to go to the Olympics. Unfortunately, in 2016 he lost in the finals on a split decision and didn't get to go to Rio for the Olympics. After that, Cam bought a van because he now had to build a career for himself. He started traveling around the country, speaking at schools, and training for the next Olympics. After he'd built a nice business for himself, the US Olympic Committee told him they wouldn't allow him to box now that he had a speaking business. So he had to give up boxing or his speaking business. So Cam flew to Trinidad and Tobago (his dad's home country), got dual citizenship, did one of their Olympic trials, and qualified. But he got suspended. Then in 2020, Cam again won the Olympic trials, and then COVID happened. Then April of this year, he woke up with a detached retina and was told he could never box again. And just like that, his dream of going to the Olympics was dimmed. Lessons learnedThere are ups and downs in investing. And if you can just, if you're willing to ride out the down long enough, you can least come back up to at least break even. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Andrew's takeawaysYou've got to persevere. Be willing to pivot. Set your dreams and your goals. Sometimes, what you set as your goal or dream is not what you're going to get. But what you're going to get along the way is really what life's all about. Actionable adviceIf you have no dependents, take bigger risks. Put all those eggs in the basket. Even if the basket drops, the experience you'd learn will give you more success. Cam's recommended resourcesCam recommends going to the public library for free access to thousands of books. No.1 goal for the next 12 monthsCam's number one goal for the next 12 months is to make motivational humor a more well-known thing.

These programs usually advise the cutting out or lowering of carbohydrates, the use of fasting techniques or recommend dietary supplements. But what if you could manipulate your diet and food intake to help you increase the amount of fat your body uses as fuel throughout the day? In this podcast, I speak with Exercise Physiologist and Sports Dietitian Bob Seebohar, on how to become more metabolically efficient at using fat as a fuel source. We also discuss macronutrient needs for strength vs endurance athletes, fat burning zones, the best ratio of carbohydrates to protein for blood sugar control, and why carbohydrates are demonized.

Many women dont realize that as we age, our training and fueling routines need to change with us. But how do we do this when there are so many nutrition trends out there that are so easy to get sucked into? The answer is in this 2 part episode where we dive into the research beyond how to fuel and move your body in peri-menopause, menopause, and beyond. Key Takeaways If You Are Looking to Change Your Training Routine as You Enter Your 40s, You Should: Remember that women are not small men and most guidelines out there need to be adjusted for your changing body Drop the moderate intensity crap and focus on high-intensity speed and power to see the results you want Take a step back to re-learn the difference between being tired from exercise or tired from stress Women Are Not Small Men with Dr. Stacy Sims Stacy T. Sims, Ph.D., is an applied researcher, innovator, and entrepreneur in human performance, specifically sex differences in training, nutrition, and environmental conditions. She is a regularly featured speaker at professional and academic conferences, including those hosted by US Olympic Committee, High-Performance Sport NZ, and USA Cycling, she is a Senior Research Associate at AUT University and resides at the beach in Mt. Maunganui, New Zealand with her husband and young daughter. Listen To Your Body and the Research When a woman enters her 40s, her body composition starts to change. Many people associate the symptoms of these changes with low sleep, high stress, and try to do more training to counter it. None of these are the appropriate types of stress that your body needs in order to mitigate these changes. Women need specific changes to their training routine, along with nutrition, to support their bodies throughout their 40s and beyond. Proper sleep, high-intensity workouts, and polarizing your training in order to recover are key. Change Is a Good Thing Often as women are approaching peri-menopause they are nervous about getting bulky or are told to switch to moderate intensity workouts. Dr. Stacy is here to say that is absolutely not the case. Physiologically women respond better to speed and power, and if anything we should be increasing the intensity of our workouts when we can, and bookending them with softer workouts for our recovery. This is just one example of the necessary ways you need to change your training routine in order to support your changing body and hormones. Are you excited for Part 2 of Dr. Stacy Sims' knowledge and experience? Share which of her tips you loved most from this episode with me in the comments section of the episode page. In This Episode Why the phases of your menstrual cycle should impact how you train (11:35) Some of the changes that you can expect to see when entering peri-menopause (14:49) How to shift the way that you strength train as you enter your 40s and beyond (18:42) Why the ‘moderate intensity' for women in their 40's is the exact opposite of what you should be doing (26:22) Tips for changing up your training and eating routine in order to stress your body and see results (33:52) Quotes “They attribute it to life stress, but it's not. Well, some of it is life stress of course. But when we pull it back to physiology and we see this change over these ratios, and our bodies are also trying to adjust.” (16:26) “What we are trying to do when we get into our 40s is look for an external stress that is going to help support what the hormones used to do, or augment what the hormones can do.” (19:55) “You need to work with someone who knows how to do proper movement.” (23:26) “We don't know what it is like to be uncomfortable. We have air-conditioned houses, we have heating in the winter, we go outside in the summer, and we don't know what it truly means to be uncomfortable, so our bodies never adapt.” (32:05) “We are really trying to get people to understand what it feels like, and teach themselves because we have lost that. We have lost what it feels like to be tired from physical activity, versus being tired from stress. So we are trying to teach that.” (37:41) Featured on the Show Join the Strength Nutrition Unlocked Group Coaching Program Here Next Level: Your Guide to Kicking Ass, Feeling Great, and Crushing Goals Through Menopause and Beyond with Dr. Stacy Sims Women Are Not Small Men TED Talk Check out the full show notes here!

Keith Frostad wasn't out publicly in the media around the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, but he was known to be gay in the elite swimming world. When he talked about all of this with Zachary Draves of Nuts & Bolts Sports, he shared publicly for the first time intimate details of being harassed repeatedly by male swimmers on Team USA and at the University of Texas. He also found strength in the support he received from some swimmers, including many on the women's teams. And his attempt to reach the 1996 Olympics gave him a heart-warming story of support that remains with him to this day. He shares with us details of his experiences, including apparent pressure from representatives of the US Olympic Committee to stay quiet about being gay at the Olympics.
