A common misconception people have about God and religion is that “for God to love me I have to be good.” The truth of the matter is that God loves you just as you are BUT, loves you too much to leave you how you are. When you say yes to Jesus, YOU CHANGE! This sermon looks at how Jesus changes us - not religion.

What is unique about bodybuilding that can cause stress in various relationships? How do you prevent it? Today I'm starting a new series on my show with the main topic being “show prep fails.” The first discussion I'm going to tackle is where relationships can go wrong. I dive into three specific types of relationships in life and the potential issues that can surface when you compete. I provide suggestions on how to maneuver potentially awkward situations and suggestions on how to minimize future issues too. My goal of this show is for you as a listener and potential bodybuilder to always feel empowered in your decisions and to not feel like you are being selfish if you make decisions that will ultimately fill up your cup. I want people to know it's ok to do what's best for you in bodybuilding. And you will always have an unbiased resource here (me! hi! *waving*) shouting from the rooftops, cheering for you, wanting to see you manifest the greatness within you.

I have a new series I'm going to do that is all about show prep fails. In this series I am going to cover common themes and things that go wrong in show prep. Today in Part 1, I'm going to talk about all things regarding relationships and things that go wrong. If this podcast hits a chord with you, feel free to share your thoughts in the group I have on Facebook called the “Everything Else “in Bodybuilding Podcast Insiders. Throughout our lives we try to make friends and build meaningful relationships so that we have people to share our experiences with. At some point we come into our own and start new paths that take us in completely different directions. This can mean the end of a chapter and the beginning of a new one. Often there are friends in our lives that don't understand our new paths and don't want you to change. They don't understand that you are evolving and growing. They might even say or do things that are hurtful to try to keep you in their life as they know you. I remember one time I was in grade school and I was starting to make new friends in school. These girls were part of the “cool” crowd. I had a friend that was not part of the cool crowd who lived on the same street at me. Growing up we hung out a lot and always created dance routines together to music on the radio. The 80s was all about dance scenes in movies and I embodied this to the max. I was always dancing and creating choreography either by myself, with my cousins, or with this friend. When I started making new friends, my old friend got jealous. One day, I was at her house playing again and got hungry. By the way, I don't know about you guys, but there was always food at my house and my grandparents houses. My grandmother would feed me a stack of waffles and when I got through one of them, five more showed up. So I never understood when I would go to friends houses there would never be food. Like ever. It would come time for lunch and I'd end up with a piece of bread or something. I mean does no one eat? So anyways, here I am making dance routines and I'm freaking hungry. I ask for a snack and she goes and gets this coffee cake thingy her mom made. I mean really, coffee cake. I'm like, mmmm YES finally something good to eat. So she goes to hand me the piece of cake and then pulls it back and says, I am only going to give you this if you promise you will never change. That you won't be friends with these new people and you will stay the same person. I was really young but I knew this wasn't right. I didn't know it was blackmail at the time, but I knew it wasn't fair. I mean, really, I'm freaking hungry and am being served an ultimatum by a close friend while a piece of coffee cake is being waived in front of my face. I left her house that day and felt funny about the whole situation. I felt deceived and I couldn't shake the feeling. That was the last day I went over her house to play. Walking away from friends that don't align with your path is never easy. It becomes harder when you actually do evolve, and they don't like the new you. You might be more confident, you might have a physical transformation that they don't like, or you might be overall spending less time with them and they feel left out. I think after that friendship I distanced myself from all friendships. I kept people at arms length so that I wouldn't be cornered again. I didn't see it coming and I never wanted to be backed into a corner like that again. It wasn't until I was 20 and got into bodybuilding that I met my best girlfriend Shelley in the gym while she was getting ready for a bodybuilding show at 47 years old. She became my closest girlfriend and is still near and dear 20+ years later. Why? I don't know. There is something about the friendships you make in bodybuilding the are different. There is like this unspoken code amongst competitors. It's like when you see two motorcycle riders pass by each other and they wave to each other and nod. It's a thing. With bodybuilders I think it has to do with having gone through show prep and knowing what it really takes to do a show. You will never really know unless you do one. I think it also has to do with how alone you feel in the environments around you unless you are in a bodybuilding Mecca or something. Most people don't have that luxury and prepare for shows in their local gyms where you might even be the only bodybuilder in the whole facility. So when you meet people at the shows often times you make friends back stage and these friendships carry on long after the show. I think this is why teams have become so popular because they provide a support system that many do not have anywhere else, including at home with their families. Cathy Savage pioneered the concept of teams before anyone in the industry. I remember meeting Cathy in 2004 at one of her camps and then by 2007 there was literally hundreds of competitors flying in from all over the world to her annual Camp Savage event. It was in the middle of January in Boston so there was zero weather incentive to be there. But people came anyways despite 20 degrees and windy temperatures. That's how much people wanted CONNECTION. Since then the team concept has exploded and now you have teams everywhere, all around the world. The irony of the “team” concept is I think they can become quite isolating for competitors, and can even bring on a feeling of peer pressure. Sounds weird, I know, but hear me out. Remember that idea of evolving I was talking about? Think about what happens when a competitor who started on a team and now wants to try something new and the team or the coach doesn't approve. They feel a pit in their belly because they don't want to leave the support system of their team, but they also don't want to be limited on what they can do with their competition career either. “Can Do.” Those words. Geez, just verbalizing it irritates me. I honestly don't understand why grown adults allow themselves to be told what they can and can't do with something that is a hobby. That's like being a golfer at a particular golf club and deciding that you want a change. So you find a new golf course to spend your thousands of dollars at, but when you tell your friends at the old golf club about your switch, you are faced with little to no support and a lot of push back. Sounds ridiculous, right? But, how is bodybuilding any different? Unless it's your literal career, bodybuilding is a hobby where you will ABSOLUTELY spend thousands of dollars to participate. From suits, entry fees, travel, tanning, contest prep coach, and posing coaches, it is absolutely going to rack up into the thousands. Just my clients alone, when I was doing 1 on 1 sessions, I went through their accounts recently and added up how much they have spent with me over time. YUP, THOUSANDS. Part of why I made the Posing Wins Shows program. It is a curriculum that you have lifetime access to no matter when and where you compete. It's a one time cost. Want to compete in NPC? OCB? WBFF? WNBF? Fitness Universe? NANBF? I could go on you know…plus what's cool is includes a community that is like an ongoing posing lesson and accepts everyone, men and women, all divisions, all federations. The unique support system that is growing in the group because of the diversity is incredible. I just did one of our group classes the other night, yes there is weekly face time with me included, and there was a moment we talked about different federations. I told the group that the cool part about being a part of this program is you can compete anywhere, and you will have not just the support, but the education from the only person qualified to teach the posing for all federations and divisions. Someone in the group is doing her first show in the NPC federation and wants to switch to OCB or WNBF in the future. Guess what, she not only feels empowered to make those changes, but has the support from the group, and will receive the proper instruction to make those changes to her posing when the time comes. Another person is doing an OCB show coming up, but in the future is thrilled by the idea of the glam and over the top concept of the WBFF federation. When the time comes for her to make that switch, she can make those changes effortlessly from someone who can help her. She won't feel peer pressure to stay in a federation. She won't feel like she needs to go seek out a whole new teacher to help her with the posing and stage presence requirements either. She has a one stop resource for life that encourages her and supports her no matter where she wants to compete. And another person in the group, one of our male competitors, got served some awful news last week. The competition he was planning to do got canceled and he was left spinning wondering what to do. You know what he did? He knew he could ask me for guidance on what to do next. He knew he was going to get an unbiased answer on where and when to compete. He has pivoted and now has a brand new show to focus on. I think the team concept has blinded people to the fact that bodybuilding is not a team sport. It is an individual sport. And that the team should be the support system lifting you up no matter what your goals are. What I loved about Cathy Savage and her team concept back in the early 2000s was that she never told someone they couldn't compete in one federation or another. She was very honest about her opinions on the various federations and would freely tell people what she thought, but ultimately, she never disallowed a competitor to compete somewhere. She still prepped them no matter where they wanted to compete. I think all teams should be supportive and not suppressive. Having a support system is a must and teams do fill that void, but from a career standpoint, when a team is more suppressive than it is supportive, it can keep you from growing as well. Just like that feeling I had when my friend wouldn't give me a snack because she didn't want me to change, if you feel a pit in your belly that you “can't” do what you want to do or compete where you want to compete because your coach says no, then you got things twisted up real good. Let me repeat, bodybuilding is not a team sport. One person gets one trophy. YOU did that. YOU won that trophy. You don't see any contest results that list off the team name, do you? No it's the individual person. You don't hear that Lebron James won the NBA championships do you? No, he wasn't the only contribution to that championship. You hear the Lakers won the championships because it was the efforts of ALL on the team who did the work.. Lebron might win a MVP award that showcases his excellence on the team, but again, it was the efforts of the team that won, so the banner that goes up in the gymnasium with the championship title on it says “Lakers” not Lebron. In bodybuilding, there is no such thing as the contribution of the entire team being the reason You won your trophy. The team is your support system. Your friends. But make no mistake that it was YOU that measured every ounce of food that you put in your mouth, YOU that got up at ungodly hours just to get your training in, YOU that lifted every dumbbell or barbell, YOU that pushed your self in the gym every day, week after week, month after month, YOU that went rogue from your team and contacted me to immerse yourself in my signature program because YOU wanted to do something for YOURSELF to level up your stage presence and increase your chances of winning. YOU did all that. And all this happened regardless of who was on your team. It absolutely baffles me how many bodybuilders, and I mean all of you, from bodybuilding to figure to physique to bikini, how may of you allow your decisions to get better, improve, change, evolve to be controlled by others. Not influenced. Influenced is not the same as controlled. You can ask for someone's opinion or guidance as influence but weigh your options in your head yourself and ultimately make your own decision. I'm talking about control. When it's like you are asking for permission from the people around you on decisions as if you have no say. At the end of the day, I think being on teams can be really fun and produce a camaraderie you might not find anywhere else. But where I draw the line is when the influence of the team environment keeps you from growing. One of my favorite quotes by Einstein goes something like, follow the crowd and you will get no further than the crowd. The person that walks alone is likely to find himself in places no one has ever seen before. Think about that for a second. I mean, really. Think about it. You are influenced by your environment, but you can change your environment at any point. If you are around people who don't support your growth and evolution, you can change that. You are in control of your decisions. And being a part of an individual sport requires you to do what's best for you to reach your highest potential. If you are just looking for friendships, this sport will provide you connections you will never find anywhere else while you are on your individual path to greatness. It's important to keep that distinction. That teams will provide you support, but the team is not responsible for your success. YOU are. But let's talk about relationships of a different kind. Relationships with your significant others. Relationships with significant others aren't so easy to navigate when your significant other knows you one way, and you start to evolve, and one day decide you want to try something like a bodybuilding show. Up until this point so much of your life has been built around this other person. You might even feel like life is passing you by and you want not do something great for yourself. And the affect on the relationship can go one of two ways. Either your significant other will be genuinely excited for you and want to see you do something for yourself. Orrrr, your significant other will dislike your attention going elsewhere and not support you at all. Just the other day, I had someone reach out to me to join my signature program, Posing Wins Shows. I had never met her before so I didn't know anything about her or her goals. So we chatted for a bit and she told me how excited she was to do her first show and wanted to get on stage late summer. She wanted to look incredible and give it her best shot and was beyond excited to have the opportunity to work with me through my program. She was like, I need this! and couldn't wait to get started. Next thing you know, I get a message from her saying that her boyfriend told her absolutely not and called her crazy. And then out of nowhere, she blocks me on social media. In my head I said forget working with me, girl, there is nooo freaking way you are ever going to do a show with that kind of attitude at home. Am I right guys? A lot happens during the time you prepare for a show. The show prep becomes life consuming. Food. Training. Sleep. Posing Practice. Add family commitments and children in there, you still have to find time for all of this stuff. And somehow you do! Without a support system from your significant other, it will add a whole other layer of stress to an already stressful endeavor. This person I was talking about is never going to do a show because the ONE person in her life that is supposed to lift her up and encourage her, thinks doing something for her that excites her is CRAZY. How freaking controlling is that?! It's actually quite sad. No one should ever dim your glow. But there is one more thing that happens during show prep. Especially for new people. You CHANGE. And in more ways than just one. You learn a lot about yourself. You discover things about yourself you didn't know before. You grow more confident. Your aesthetics change. Your body morphs into a shape you have never seen before. When you go places people compliment you. And these changes will either bring out the best or the worst in your relationships. I've seen significant others be the biggest cheerleaders. Imagine families wearing shirts with your name on it at your competition to show their support. And then I've also seen these changes cause a strain in relationships because the other person becomes jealous and doesn't like that the new you is getting this attention and that you are delegating some of your focus onto yourself. Unless you are becoming an arrogant ass, their disapproval is usually because this new you means you are dedicating some time to filling up your cup instead of pouring yourself into everyone else's cup, including theirs. This is not support. And this eye opener doesn't often come until you are deep into your show prep. So the girl who wasn't allowed to make a decision for herself because her significant other called her crazy, isn't even into show prep yet and already has little support for her desire to do something great for herself. This, my friends, is exactly what I mean about a relationship disaster during show prep. The bottom line here is you absolutely need to be in control of your life, and your decisions, or you won't make it through prep. And if you actually do putter your way through and somehow make it on stage, the strain on the relationship won't go away until you return back to the “old” normal or the other person has a come to Jesus moment seeing you on stage, starts to acknowledge all your hard work and your joy from it, and then evolves WITH you. You need to have a conversation with your significant other before you begin the process. I highly suggest you include this person in some capacity as well. He or she might not want to do a show, but perhaps he or she can be a part of a physical transformation as well. If they are already in decent shape, maybe they can plan to do a photoshoot right around the time of your show with you. Ultimately I suggest you try to include them in some capacity if you can. Or maybe, if they have their own hobbies that they enjoy and simply want to see you do something for yourself, and they don't need to be intimately involved in your show prep process. That's fantastic too, but let's say golf is their hobby. Going to play golf on the weekends as their expensive hobby isn't the same as your expensive hobby of doing a bodybuilding show. Your hobby isn't a weekend thing. It's an every day thing. And I think it's a good idea for them to be in the know on this beforehand. I also think they need to know more than just the specifics on the show prep itself. You should really share how much this hobby means to you. Many might not understand and think competing is all about total vanity at first. And that's ok. Not everyone is really going to “get” bodybuilding. At the end of the day, you don't have to “get' why they love golf and how they can even watch it on tv for more than 2 minutes without falling asleep, right? So he or she doesn't have to “get' why you love bodybuilding. What you both do “get” is that each of you loves your hobbies and you both love seeing the other person happy. You also “get” that you are both allocating money and time towards your hobbies and neither hobby is more important than the other. Relationships are a two way street. And communication is an absolute must. In fact, have your significant other listen to this episode so they can gain a better understanding of what this sport entails. Help them understand more. Ok guys, I hope the biggest takeaway from this episode is to find your voice and communicate your dreams and desires. Whether it's with your close friends who don't get why you want to do a show, your family, your coach, your team, and your significant other, it's important to provide info about what it is you want to do and ask for their support. How about saying, “I really want not do this thing, it means a lot to me, and I would love your support.” Instead of just putting up with naysayers, come out and ask for their support. If they truly care about you and seeing you happy, they will want to support you. You so got this! And by the way if you are ready to do something completely awesome for yourself then go to www.posingwinsshows.com and find out the three secrets that are holding you back from looking your best and winning a show….annnnd what you can do about it. It's never too early to get started. If you want to be great at something your efforts have to be great. Also, like I said before join the discussion in the Podcast Insiders group if you haven't already. I'll see you on the next episode for part 2 of this series of show prep fails! See you soon!

Well, after trying to record this episode over 13 times (I'm not even exaggerating), I finally got it down, and was able to share an adequate monologue about "change." Luckily, this one feels pretty useful, at least I think it is?! “All that you touch You Change. All that you Change Changes you. The only lasting truth is Change. God is Change.” ― Octavia E. Butler Inspired by the work of the incredible late author, Octavia E. Butler, I share a few quotes from Parable of the Sower (1993), intertwined with reflections on alchemy (and the Tria Prima), Mind, Biblically accurate angels, Everyday Amenti, homesickness, the concept of Hiraeth, the preciousness of human connection, the importance of creating boundaries, letting go, and discerning.

Rolf is a founder of Clearmind Advisors, a global leadership consultancy specializing in helping leaders from around the world lead with clarity, insight, and confidence.

These adventures provided a virtual laboratory for studying the human capacity for both high and low performance under duress. Rolf has a Masters's Degree in Architecture. Working with interdisciplinary design teams on complex projects, he developed a profound curiosity about what made some project teams come together brilliantly while others failed. Along the way, he was extremely fortunate to discover fundamental principles for how the human mind works - a crucial, almost always overlooked, variable in organizational change and human performance.

Hello to you in Johannesburg, South Africa!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday with questions carefully chosen to help you collect stories in the oral tradition or spark your own writing. Either way, you'll say, "Thanks for the memories."Many of you have shared in my stories about walking the Camino de Santiago - 5 weeks, 500 miles - and the profound change it created in me.How does that change happen? Anthony Bourdain said it well: "So many of the good times traveling this world relate directly to finding a human face to associate with your destination, the food you eat, and the memories you’ll keep with you forever. The best times are when it’s impossible to be cynical about anything. When you find yourself letting go of the past, and your preconceptions; you feel yourself and your basic nature, the snarkiness and suspicion, the irony and doubt, disappear, at least for a time. And then, for a few moments or a few hours, you change.” [Anthony Bourdain - World Travel - An Irreverent Guide (2020)]Story Prompt: Where and how have you traveled and been changed? Write that story!Practical Tip: The magic of stories is also in the sharing. If you wish share your story with someone or something. All that matters is you have a story.This is the place to thrive together. Come for the stories - stay for the magic. Speaking of magic, I hope you’ll subscribe, share a nice shout out on your social media or podcast channel of choice, and join us next time!

Welcome to THIS IS WHERE WE GO, a NEW six-part radio play podcast brought to you by MCC Theater in association with THE PARSNIP SHIP & BUSINESS LUNCH PRODUCTIONS. Written by the inaugural co-hort of THE PARSNIP SHIP's RADIO ROOTS WRITERS' GROUP, AMARA BRADY, JESSIE RIVERA DEBRUIN, GINA FEMIA & NINA KI, and directed by TAMILLA WOODARD, this series is inspired by the OCTAVIA BUTLER quote from PARABLE OF THE SOWER: “All that you touch/You Change.

Kick It With Donna episode 59 – Resolutions Will Work if You Change your Mindset. We all make those resolutions and sometimes they don’t fly. Why? Are your resolutions too lofty? If you took baby steps, would you have a better outcome? Happy New Year friends! With every new year come new resolutions. Do you succeed with yours? If yes, fantastic! If no, why not? Show notes: Margery Miller is my guest today. We talk about how resolutions will work for you if you change your mindset. We are all guilty of making a grandiose resolution that doesn’t have a prayer of succeeding. I use the “I’m going to lose 20 pounds” example. Losing 20 pounds isn’t impossible, but wouldn’t it be more realistic if you tweaked that just a little?. Do you have a plan on how to do it? Do you think it would work in your favor if you planned on losing two pounds a week? Maybe your goal is to lose 20 pounds in 2019. Making smaller weight loss goals can lead you to success instead of failure and disappointment. My resolution this year is to curb my excessive spending habit. This goal is bigger than I am. I’m seeing a cognitive behavior counselor to guide me through this process. Going back in time, this behavior started in my teen years. Wanting to be accepted and having control over something in my life leads me to the pickle I’m in now. Playing Monopoly with my honey was an eye opener. Hadn’t played since I was a kid. I bought every property I landed on and soon ran out of money. I lost my butt, and I was pissed abut it. Losing is not a strength. I just saw my spending life on the Monopoly board! The next day, I realized that being pissed was worthless. Why not play the game again and make more strategic moves. Buy the more expensive properties and buy houses on them. Definitely better than buying everything and running out of money. Margery brought up a great exercise. Pick one word for the year. Write down a few sentences in the first person, i.e. I am … Her word is courage. She suggested that mine be strategic. How perfect is that word for me? Be more strategic on what I spend my money on.

The "Netflix" of Defensive Line: www.bigdawgfootball.com Question or On-Air Topics: trenchtalk@fivestarlinemen.com At Big Dawg Football, we're all about making you a tactician in the trenches. Your progress is our success. On this episode of Big Dawg Trench Talk, we're going to open it up for trench question. This question comes from Big Dawg Christian Foltin. He asked a great question that a lot of nose tackles actually wrestle with. The question is, "what are the best pass rush moves for a nose tackle in a 3-4 defense?". All right, Big Dawg Foltin, great question. Now, let's talk trenches. So, 3-4 defense. So, we're looking at three big dawgs in the trenches. You got your nose, who's in a zero technique. You have your defensive ends, that might be in a 4, which is head up over the tackle. Or they actually might be in a 5, which is outside shoulder of the offensive tackle. Depending on the Defensive Coordinator, he may line those guys up in a 4 or 5. Either way, you only have three defensive linemen and you have five offensive linemen. Now, it's supposed to be advantage offensive linemen, five against three. Three defensive linemen should never beat five offensive linemen. However, if you have three dawgs at d-line, those three dawgs will get to that quarterback and that's a fact Jack. So, let's look specifically at what Christian asks. He's saying, nose tackle. How can a nose tackle be successful in a situation he's in? Well, what is he talking about? Right now, the challenge for a nose tackle in a 3-4 defense, assuming that the guards are uncovered, assuming that there's no blitz coming from the linebackers, assuming that there is no defensive end that's slanting or long sticking inside, assuming that those ends are rushing outside and that nose tackle has a two way go. Assuming that, there is a challenge. There is a challenge because you have a center and you have two guards there. You have potentially three guys blocking you. You are being tripled team and the job of those guards is to make sure that you do not as a nose tackle, actually rush up that "A" gap. They have to close that off. There is no way that those guards and that center would ever or should ever allow a nose tackle to rush up the "A" gap. If anything, they'll close off the "A" and force that nose tackle towards the "B". The problem with that is that now if you're dealing with a quarterback that doesn't mind pulling that ball down and taking off, you're giving him a huge lane. So, as a nose guard taking the "B" gap like that, it's definitely not recommended unless again, there's a defensive end that's long sticking to the "A" or a linebacker actually rushing the opposite "A" or "B" gap. But, let's assume there's none of that. Defensive ends not coming inside, linebackers not blitzing of the opposite "A" or "B". It's just you Big Dawg, it's you. You're in the zero technique and you got three hogs, well I call them hogs. You have three offensive linemen sitting there waiting on you to take either side and whichever way you go, you're getting triple team. That's the challenge for a nose tackle in a 3-4 defense on a pass rush. Well, here we go, Big Dawg. Here's your answer. There's always an answer. Always. Let me pull out my Big Dawg Bible and I'm going to turn to a chapter I call, The Art of Rushing for Nose Tackles. And, the proverb reads, "In the trenches, you don't get space. You create space." When the guards take away your space, take the center's place. Let me say it for you again Big Dawg, in case you ain't catch it. When the guards take away your space, take the center's place. What you talking about Big Dawg? Glad you asked. Let's flip sides for a second. The offensive guard's job is to make sure that he lends a helping hand. He's got to lend a helping hand to a center. So, while he's punching and stepping to close off that "A" gap, he's punching with his inside arm and he's looking for work. He's looking to see if there is a backer or there's a defensive end coming across threatening his "B" gap. That's what he's doing. So, he's going to close off that "A" gap while he looks towards the "B". And if that nose tackle is threatening that "A" gap, he's going to put both hands on him and shut him down. That's his job. So, potentially what you have is, you have three guys closing off the "A" gap and forcing you to work laterally as opposed to working vertically. That's their job. You have three guys sitting there and they have taken away your "A". They have taken away your "A" and they're forcing you, potentially passing you on to each other, making sure you don't penetrate the "A". They're taken away the "A", that's the job of the guard. So, the gaps are tight and you can't see no sunlight. What do you do? This reminds me of a movie that I watched. One of my favorite movies of all time, hands down, is Rocky. All the Rocky series. I've watched every single one of them, like more than 10 times a piece, I'm telling you. I've seen them over and over again. I love them. Everyone of them. Rocky 4 is definitely one of my favorite out of all of them. So, if you're not a Rocky fan or you just haven't seen any of the Rocky movies, then you don't know which one I'm talking about. So let me explain. Rocky 4 is where Rocky fights Drago. Drago is a beast, okay. He's a Russian boxer and he is very strong and very powerful. Big Dawg, he was a monster. I'm telling you. So round one, ding ding. Here we go, Drago on Rocky, like white on rice. I mean Rocky can't go nowhere, ain't no peace in the ring. Every throw Drago throwing is landing like heat missiles, they landing. Drago throwing a jab,landing. Hook. Uppercut. Hook. Jab. Landing. Like all of them, all of them landing. So, I'm sitting there watching like, oh my God. I guess Rocky 4 is when Rocky finally gonna die because that's what it looked like Big Dawg. It looked like Rocky was going down, but he kept getting back up. Ding. Bell rings, round one is over. Rocky goes back to his corner. So, his coach says, "all right, what's happening out there?" And Rocky says, "he's winning! I see three of them out there." So, Paulie's behind him and he says, "hit the one in the middle." And his coach, Tony says, "right, hit the one in the middle." Big Dawg, that scene is classic and this question reminds me of that scene, you a nose tackle and a 3-4 defense. You actually have three guys you got to deal with. You know what my answer is, hit the one in the middle. Remember in the trenches, you don't get space. You have to create space. You have to make space for yourself. When the guards attempt to take your space away, hit the one in the middle. Attack the center and take his place. A nose tackle in a 3-4 defense has to be able to create space. Creating space as a nose tackle is one of the most important elements to the art of rushing the passer. So, what do I specifically mean when I say take the center's place? Well, you can't go left and you can't go right? What you want to do is hit the one in the middle. You want to now attack that center and you want to put them on a different level. Now, putting him on a different level can mean a numerous amount of things. What's going to make it difficult for you to work right or left, is that you're working into the guards. The center and the guards are on the same level. What I mean by that is, they are hip to hip. Now, they might sponge set. In other words, they may form a horseshoe around the quarterback to absorb anything that's coming. So, that guard might be slightly behind, slightly behind that center, but that's by design. They're forming a horseshoe around the quarterback, yet they are hip to hip connected. Now, attacking the center, hitting the one in the middle, how does that help? It helps because you have now driven a center back and you place the center on a different level than the guard. Now, remember I said earlier that guard is going to sit in there and lend a helping hand. He's going to close off that "A" gap, punch with his inside hand to make sure that you stay as a nose tackle in front of that center. Well, that helping hand doesn't matter because I'm going to attack that center. I'm going to actually hit the one in the middle. I'm going to put him on a different level. When I attacked the center and I put that center on a different level than the guards, I just replaced the center where the center was standing. Where the center was actually located at the line of scrimmage, I replaced him because I knocked him back and I sat him down. That's why it is so important that you have a great stance and a great start and that you shock and sit that center down. Once you shock and sit that center down and you attack the one in the middle, wherever that center was is where you now are. Why? Because the guards have taken away your space. Well, if the guards take away your space, then you take the center's place. You now shock and sit that center down. So, in shocking and sitting that center down, you've now driven the center pass the guards hip. Now, you have created a crease by shocking and sitting that center down. You have created space or you've created a crease for yourself. So, Big Dawg, visually imagine what I'm saying. Imagine yourself or your athlete, your nose tackle explodes off that ball and he shocks that center and knocks him back. So, imagine a center's toes is on the guard's heel. Now, because they're not hip to hip, you have that space to work. Primarily Big Dawg, that's what you're trying to do. You've got to create a crease. You got to make space for yourself to work. So, first things first, hit the one in the middle and create space. Now that you've got them where you want them, be ready to shock and shed or shock and snatch. By you sheding the center, it's creating more space for yourself to work the opposite "A". So, you get off the ball, you shock him, you sit him down or knock him back, and you shed him right or left. Now, when I say shed, what I'm referring to is that you're actually now playing half a man. Though, you're head up as a nose tackle in a zero and you attack that center, you hit the one in the middle. Once you've driven him back as far as you need to go, whereas now hopefully he's behind the hips of the guards, now look to shed him right or left. So, if you shed him to your defensive right, you're knocking him into that left guard and creating even more space for yourself when it's time to work to your left defensive left. So again, you shock them, you shed them, and you work that gap you just created for yourself. That's you now creating space. Okay, coach, what if he's strong? It's a strong center and I'm having a hard time knocking that center back to even create that space or put that center on a different level. Well Big Dawg, that's a great point because driving a center back is not the only way you can put the center on a different level than the guards. You can also snatch that center forward, that will cause you to now put that center on a different level. No, the center's not behind the heels of the guard, but now the center is in front of the guards because he's top heavy. A lot of times when those center don't want to be moved, they're probably top heavy. Which means that they don't have good posture. Their shoulders are above the hips are slightly in front, but they're top heavy. I mean their backs flat and leaning on you pretty heavy. Perfect opportunity as a nose tackle to feel that through your hands and snatch him forward. When you snatch him forward, you would just put the center on a different level. The center's shoulders and the guard's shoulders are not close in proximity. They are not even close to touch it. You just put now the center on a different level. Once again, he's not behind the guard. You just snatched him in front of the guards. That's another way of putting that center on a different level, but you've got to be smart Big Dawg. The first thing you have to do is attack. You've got to get your hands on the center and your hands, for you now once you hit the one in the middle, have to operate like these "usbs". And, I always tell my Big Dogs, get your hands plugged in like they're "usbs". Because at that point, Big Dog, you can now retrieve information. You can't retrieve information if you don't have your hands plugged in and if your hands not plugged in, you don't know what's going on. You can't do absolutely anything, if you have your hands not on that offensive linemen, on that center. So, first things first, move with the ball, not on the ball. Move with the ball, explode out of your stance, hit the one in the middle. Once you hit the one in the middle and your hands are plugged in like "usbs", you can get a sense and a feel information as to what's going on. If you sat him down real well and you've driven him back, keep driving them back, shed him and work the gap. But, if you get off that ball, you move with the ball, you shock them, get your hands on like usbs, and man he's pretty stubborn. He's top heavy and you feel that in your hand. Snatch him! Shock, snatch over! Pat him on the back, tell him good job. So what's my point? My point is, is that you can attack that center and put them on a different level behind the guards and find work. Or, you can attack that center and put him on a different level in front of the guards. Well, you also can find work. There's always an answer. There's an answer to every question. You just have to work for it and find that answer. All right, Big Dog, so you might be thinking, "okay coach, so is shocking and snatching or shocking and shedding the only way I can pass rush in a 3-4 defense?" Absolutely not. We just getting started. Let's look specifically now at the actual hand mechanics of the pass rush move. As a nose tackle and a zero technique, you can work here two by two or two by one. When I say two by two or two by one, I'm referring to the hand mechanics of pass rush moves. So, let's look at a two by two. A two by two is kinda what I just mentioned before, which was that shock and snatch or shocking and shed. Snatching and shedding are pass rush moves. They are escapes. So, if you punch the center with two hands, you're going to shock him with two hands or you're going to snatch him with two hands. That's what I call two by two. Now, when I say two by one or two to one, which you'll see @ bigdogfootball.com with my passwords moves, two by one means I'm going to shock you with two hands and I'm going to take one hand off so I can work the center's hand off and escape. Now, here's where it gets a little bit more detail. Let's talk about the two to one or the two by one. If I'm a nose tackle and I tagged that center and I set him back like I would like to and put them on a different level with two hands and I take that hand off, now coach, which hand should I take off? Okay, let's say you're a nose tackle and you want to work to the right, defensive right. You have an option, you can take your right hand off. Now, if you're working to your defensive right and you take your right hand off, now your left hand stays on. That left hand is still collapsing that center. You're still collapsing the pocket with the center, with what I call the pusher or your pusher arm. So, I'm two to one, my right hand comes off, my left hand still on because it's still pushing, why I call it the pusher. And so, my right hand, I'm going to now work my hand and work that center's hand off of me. So, you've pretty much turned the pass rush into a long arm, two hands to one. You kept your inside hand on because you're going right. You use your left hand and now you're long arming that center towards the quarterback. You are not collapsing the pocket. What are you doing with your right hand? Well, it depends and this is where hand leverage comes into place. What's your hand leverage? Is your outside hand under that center's left hand? Is your outside hand on top of that center's hand? Is your outside hand inside of that centers arm because he's trying to grab your shoulder pad? Where is his hands? That's where you have to feel where you are. That's where the beauty of rushing comes in and now you're being a tactician in the trenches. So, two to one: left hand stays on, right hand comes off, the center's hands under yours. Boom. Quick swim off. Why quick swim? Because a quick swim requires for you to go down. If you have the hand leverage to go down, which means your hands above his hands,work down. Two to one, inside hand stays on, outside hand comes off, but his hands are above your hands. His hands are on the top of your shoulder pad. What do I do? Now we forklift or we "T" lift. Two to one, inside hand stays on, outside hand comes off. But, coach, now his hands are actually inside of my hands. They're hot and inside, what do I do? You "C" swat or "T" swat? Knock his hands inside and work the edge. Let's say you attack the center and the center has grabbed your outside shoulder pad and your hands are inside of his, but his hands are outside of yours. What do we do now? Well, we can wheel out or we can snake through. When you've shocked and set that center down or driven him back, collapsed the pocket, and created space for yourself (now as a tactician in the trenches) you have to feel where his hands are and work. Identifying hand leverage is going to tell you exactly what you need to do. It's not something you look for, but it's something you feel. So, if the center's hands are low, what should you do? You can chop down. You can "T" chop down. You can quick swim down. Why? Because your hands are higher than he's. If the center's hands are higher than yours and your hands are under his hands, what can you do? You forklift and you "T" up. One of those two will get you out of that situation. If the center's hands are inside of your hands and they're on your chest plate, what do you do? You can swat. "T" swat. "C" swat. Knock his hands inside and work the edge. If the center's hands are outside of yours, you can wheel out or you can snake out. You can even punch out or punch and drop to that side. Big Dawg, there is always an answer, always an answer. You just have to be willing to work for it and grind to it. Now, all of those pass rush moves were all two to one or two by one pass rush moves. But, specifically it was the two by one where we kept our inside arm off and that pass rush move turned into a long arm rush. Now, let's talk about the two by one or the two to one pass rush move, where we keep our outside arm on and take our inside arm off. This is what I call the quick release. So, let's go with the same example. I shocked the center as a nose tackle. I sat him down, I drove him back, and I want to work to my defensive right? So, as opposed to me taking off my right arm, I'm going to keep my right arm on. I'm going to take my inside arm off. Now, why would I want to keep my right arm on if I'm going right? Great question, because I want to stack his feet. I want to get him to stack. If I can get his feet to stack, I got a sack. Now, what do I mean by stack? Well, if the center's feet are on top of each other (and I don't mean that literally. I'm not saying that he stepped on his own foot), what I'm saying is that his feet are vertical. That his feet are facing the sideline. He has completely opened his hip or what I call open his "gate". His feet are stacked. When you get his feet to stack or you get him to drop that back foot. You have just created space for yourself. The center and the guard are no longer foot to foot. You kept your outside arm on and you caused his feet to stack or you caused him to drop that foot and open that gate. But, if that gate's open, I'm sure going through it. But, ain't nobody opened it for me. I had to open it myself. You can do that Big Dawg. You can do that with the quick release. You can do that if you keep that outside arm on, lock him out, play low and long, because we know low and long equals strong. Make him drop that foot because you're attacking, right? He drops that left foot and now you got what you wanted. He's opened the gate. His foot has stacked. Now go get your sack. Bring that inside arm now because remember you took that inside arm off. You kept your outside arm on, but you took your inside arm off because you are now ready to rip and run or chop and drop. Now, keep this in mind. None of this works if you are not playing with good leverage. What I call, laser down. Now, what I mean by laser down is, I always like to use this example, if there was a laser in the middle of your chest and you're standing straight up, straight up and down, that laser will be pointing straight out. Why? Because you're standing straight up. But, when I say laser down, what I mean is I want that chest down. I want that chest down towards the ground. I want your flat back at contact because that brings great impact. Flat back at contact, brings great impact. Now, if he can't see it, the center can't strike it. So, laser down. Take away surface, take away any chance that center can have with controlling you. When I teach my offensive linemen as well, I teach them to punch plates. I teach them to block with their feet, but control with their hands. But as a nose tackle, if you don't give them surface, their hands won't land. And if their hands won't land, then they'll never have control. So, laser down, Big Dawg. Chest down, don't give them surface to control. Always play on your 45 drive. So, keep that in mind. All of these things will work if you're playing with great leverage. So, in this discussion, if you choose to hit the one in the middle, this is the best way to go. The two by two or the two by one. If you two by two, you can shock and snatch or shock and shed. If you decided to go two by one, you can keep the outside arm on, shock him with two, press him with one, quick release. And we can also go two by one, keeping the inside arm on, transitioning quickly into a long arm rush. Shock him with two, keep collapsing with the inside arm and, work off with the outside arm, and the move will vary based on your hand leverage. If you decide to hit the one in the middle, one of those will work. I guarantee it. Now, if you go and work on these moves, you'd have plenty in yards to know to deal with that center and those guards in that 3-4 defense. Now, I can hear somebody asking me coach, which one out of all of those moves is the best? Honestly, Big Dawg that depends on you. You might just be that power rusher. You might not want to go two to one. You might not like the idea of taking a hand off. And if you're a powerful guy with a great get off, you move with the ball, not on the ball. You move with the ball. I probably wouldn't recommend you take a hand off. I say you bull them, collapse the pocket. I say bull them, shed them. I say Bull him, snatch him. I'd probably say, Big Dog, you're powerful work your two by two. If you're a nose tackle with moderate strength, average, not very powerful, but you have really good hands. Well, I'll tell you Big Dawg, try your two by one. Turn that pass rush in to a long arm and work outside arm and get off of me. That's what I would tell you. Some may say, coach, I'm not strong at all, what do I do? Well Big Dawg, you better have the hands of a skilled surgeon, skilled and precise. You can't two by two or two by one, you will be what I call a finesse rusher. When I get a finesse rusher at nose tackle, I'm teaching him to attack the elbows and below. We don't put our hands on the offensive linemen because if we could put hands on him, he could put hands on us and you may not be strong enough to get off. Again, I'm talking to my finesse rushers. The beauty behind all of this is to find your match. Find your weapon, what weapon works well with you? What weapon works well with you and for you? That's the beauty of all of it. Do I have to know how to do 35 moves? No, you do not. You just have to find those three moves that you feel will work for you in this situation. In this 3-4 defense being that nose tackle, you have to work the one that works for you and with you. That's the beauty of it. Find your match, find your weapon. What three moves should you develop? Go back and listen to Episode 2, where we talk about the "go-to", the setup, and the counter. I think it'll help you know. I'm not sure if you caught this, but if you are listening, I think you heard me say if you choose to hit the one in the middle. Well, coach what you mean if I choose to hit the one in the middle, is not the only one I can hit? You probably know the answer to that. The answer is no. The center is not the only guy that you can hit. Now, I absolutely recommend hitting the center first. I agree that you have to hit the one in the middle first, maybe second, and maybe third, but I don't know about fourth and fifth and sixth and seventh. Big Dawg, you getting predictable, and ninth, and so on and so forth. Big Dawg, you ain't fooling nobody. Remember, we're training you to be tacticians in the trenches. One of the key elements of war is surprise. That means change the rhythm of your rush. Change your course. Don't allow him to predict what you're going to do by doing the same thing over and over and over again. Eventually you hitting the one in the middle, ain't gonna work. So again, to answer your question, do I always have to hit the one in the middle? No, please don't always hit the one in the middle. Should I start off by hitting the one in the middle? Absolutely. Start off by hitting the one in the middle and once you hit the one in the middle, change your P.O.A, change your point of attack. Well, how do I do that? Great question Big Dawg. Attack the guard. Have you been listening to anything I've been saying? Let me go back to my Big Dog Bible and it reads again, "In the trenches, you don't get space. You create space." Big Dawg, I'm just messing with you. I know you're listening, but this rush I'm talking about, it's called the ricochet rush. This is where the nose tackle would attack the inside shoulder of the guard. Now, the beauty behind this is that, remember, first you hit the one in the middle. You attacking the center once, twice, maybe even three times. What's those guards going to predict? They're probably gonna predict that you're going to attack the center again, but this time, Big Dawg, you don't. You Change your P.O.A. just that fast. Now, it looks like you lined up the same way and you are, but your point of attack is different. Now, we're going to attack the inside shoulder of the guard. And, when we do that, Big Dawg watch this, the offensive tackle has to kick out on that defensive end. So, you have that space with that "B" gap. You can knock that guard over into that "B" gap and that's going to give you more space and your "A" gap. Now, you're playing like a tactician and that's big dawg football. In summary, you're a nose tackle, you're a Big Dawg, playing in a 3-4 defense. How do I deal with this? Attack the one in the middle. Shock and sit him down. Work your two by two or you're two by one. Or finesse him, attack his elbows and below. Put that center on a different level and create space. Be smart, Big Dawg. Eventually, change the rhythm of your rush. Change your P.O.A. and ricochet. Hey, Big Dawg. I can talk about this all day long. Actually, I think I do talk about this all day long.

LOTL The Comfort Zone Welcomes Lindsey Webster, debuts new CD " You Change " NEW YORK (June 17, 2015) Do you remember that moment when you first heard Anita Baker or Sade; the effortless, sultry, and soaring vocal that captures all of your attention? Lindsey Webster's delicate and powerful voice takes you to that place - an unabashed nod to the greats and yet 100 percent Lindsey. The Soul Songstress is proud to announce the release of her sophomore album, You Change, via Atlanta Records on July 17. The album is an eloquent collection of work showcasing Webster's expressive vocals and uncanny talent and the two lead singles “Fool Me Once” and “Open Up” are out now and available to stream HERE. “"You Change” shows the growth we've made as artists since our first album; in both our songwriting and who we are as artists. From a delicate song like “Bleed”, a song about utter heartbreak, to an anthem like “I'm Strong”, we explore many facets of our songwriting and are extremely happy with the result”, states Webster. In 2009, Lindsey met her partner, Keith Slattery, and started performing professionally. Together, with a band of world-class musicians, they've performed over 600 shows in venues including Bearsville Theater, Levon Helm Studios, Helsinki Hudson, Daryl's House, The Falcon, The Lambs Club, Rockwood Music Hall, The Red Lion, and Groove. The success of her first album and winning “Best Acoustic Song” in the Independent Music Awards caught the eye of Brian Hurst from UK's soulandjazz.com. Hurst brought Webster to Atlanta Records, who signed her to release her second album, You Change.
