We did a contracting episode a few weeks ago where we aired out a few grievances mostly focused on how strength and conditioning coaches in contracted roles with the military are treated. In that conversation we acknowledged that we have limited experience with contracting, and we were open to having an expert come on and set the record straight.  As it happens, this week's guest is exactly the kind of expert we were looking for. Chris Larkin is LMR Technical Group CEO and Cofounder and his background covers enlisted and officer service in Air Force Special Warfare and extensive involvement in military human performance in multiple different roles. Chris spent 28 years total in the Air Force as an enlisted Combat Controller and Special Tactics Officer, starting to advocate for military human performance initiatives even before commissioning. He served as the first Squadron Commander at the Special Tactics Training Squadron and helped establish the Combat Athlete Program (which pre-dated SOCOM POTFF) working with AF Research Lab and USAFA Human Performance Lab. He had HPO specific facilities built at the STTS and 23 Special Tactics Squadron – some of the first built in the DoD and even ran one of the first ever Human Performance Symposiums (bringing in industry, academia, and other military units to help solve HPO problems). He wrote his thesis at the Joint Advanced Warfighting School (JAWS) on “Combat Fitness a Concept Vital to National Defense” and was an Operational Squadron commander when POTFF came to AFSOC and even deployed HPO staff into Afghanistan to expedite the recovery process. His credentials include a bachelors in Exercise Science, Master Fitness Trainer, ACSM Exercise Leader, and USA Triathlon Coach. He's also an accomplished athlete in his own right. He ran Division 1 Cross Country and Southwest Texas State University. He has represented the Air Force in downhill skiing, triathlon, pentathlon, and Ironman - including 3 Ironman finishes. And he has 3,000 parachute jumps – including numerous demonstrations at events including NFL, MLB, NASCAR.

Wesley Johnson is the the Triathlon Coach for the University of Arizona. He has spent the last 9 years as a coach with USA Triathlon, leading teams I the World Championships, Paralympic and Pan American Championships and was named the 2021 USA Triathlon Coach of the Year.  In this episode, he speaks about the necessity of getting fundamentals down first; learning from those you coach and more.

Coach Chris talks with Dr. Lisa Ingarfield  about diversity, equity and inclusion in endurance sports. She's a fellow USA Triathlon Coach and spoke at a recent triathlon conference on this topic. She co founded the Outspoken Women in Triathlon Summit. As a "day job," she does research and evaluation surrounding diversity, equity and inclusion. Hang on to your hat, be a little uncomfortable, set aside your emotions for a moment and listen up. We have a lot of work to do. She calls this a "marathon" and we can certainly work together on this one.Dr Ingarfield defines diversity and brings up many pieces of this complicated puzzle. She talks about the gender pronouns and what they mean. She also talks about the "invisibility of whiteness" and "invisibility of maleness." At the end of the day, the onus is on us to do the research instead of asking marginalized people.Some of her "homework" for us is to:-->Stop making assumptions like "all black people can't swim" or "all moms don't have time for sports" and ask some questions or do your research so you're not excluding people-->If you're in a leadership position, do a needs assessment and ask people about their experiences as well as to have a great starting point. Here's some books she suggested, although there are many out there to help: Lies My Teacher Told MeHow To Be AntiracistIf you want to continue to learn and get insights on this issues, check out her [un]phased Podcast with Dr. Shaunna Payne Gold, designed to help you grapple with the reality of racism, sexism, ableism and many other hard-to-discuss issues affecting triathlon, endurance sports, and our lives. The hosts are both coaches and age-group triathletes, dovetail their work experience in diversity, equity, and inclusion with their love of endurance sports and holistic wellness. For questions, email Lisa at lisa@tritodefi.com and follow them on Instagram here or Facebook here.At The Endurance Edge, we're committed to diversity, inclusion and equity in triathlon and endurance sports, but we need your help.

She is a mother of 4 and prior to joining Strongtown she has competed as both a marathon runner and a triathlete for many years. In addition to competing she is also a certified USA Triathlon Coach so I feel she has an interesting perspective from both the competing & coaching side of things.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2017 - Alex Viada of Complete Human Performance, is a NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and USA Triathlon Coach. A lifelong athlete, he has participated and competed in nearly every sport imaginable (some with greater success than others), since being dragged to his first swim meet when he was four years old. Alex has close to 13 years of personal training and coaching experience with over 300 athletes of all ages and levels, in sports ranging from bodybuilding to ultra-running to triathlon to cycling to powerlifting. He has also prepared close to 40 individuals for Ranger School, SFAS, BUD/s, and other selective military programs.

You don’t have to be in your 20’s to be muscular, lean, and strong. The fundamentals of good dieting and effective training remain no matter what age you are. In this episode with Alex Vianda, he’ll share with you a handful of strategies for maximizing your fitness after 40. Listen now!   Brief Bio: Alex Viada, NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and USA Triathlon Coach, is the founder and co-owner of Complete Human Performance. A lifelong athlete, he has participated and competed in nearly every sport imaginable (some with greater success than others), since being dragged to his first swim meet when he was four years old. Alex has close to 13 years of personal training and coaching experience with over 300 athletes of all ages and levels, in sports ranging from bodybuilding to ultra-running to triathlon to cycling to powerlifting. He has also prepared close to 40 individuals for Ranger School, SFAS, BUD/s, and other selective military programs. His Hybrid Training method is simple — it consists of breaking down the demands and unique stressors of every type of training an athlete requires, and programming to target specific demands, not “labels” (i.e. “strength training,” “conditioning,” “endurance training,” etc.). The result is a style of programming that has produced a significant number of powerlifting triathletes and 300+ pound runners. Many athletes working with Complete Human Performance find themselves setting personal records in strength, speed and distance at the same time–something that was traditionally seen as impossible.
