In this episode, I talk with an old friend, Matt Ison. Matt is a competitive Triathlete and accomplished Triathlon Coach. We discuss how to breakdown the triathlon into strategic parts, how to fuel training and racing, how to get tons of media exposure, and why you shouldn't brag about where you're at in a race until you get to the finish. The topics of racing weight, recovery modalities, nutrition, and strategy also make their way into our discussion, as well as how he got his Strava and Instagram handles.

In this episode, I talk with my friend, Ambrose Coleman. In anticipation for a future podcast with another guest to discuss Knee Valgus and jumping, I asked Ambrose to share his experience and perspective on Knee Valgus as it relates to optimal movement, mechanism of injury (specifically ACL/meniscus), and injury prevention screening. Ambrose invents a new word, we crack ourselves up, and I expand my understanding of how the nervous system achieves movement tasks.

In this episode I explain why I don’t have a guest this week (Sorry, technical issues with the recording), why it is so important to know your body’s “Calorie budget,” how to calculate your predicted Maintenance Level of Calories, and the basic setup I use to determine preliminary gram goals for the macronutrients.

In this episode, I talk with my new friend, Elia Oliviero Barbon. Elia is a young, but very hard working and ambitious professional in the Exercise Physiology and Sport Nutrition industry. He is an NSCA and Bayesian certified Personal Trainer, and content creator for Iraki Nutrition (irakinutrition.com), @stepunovenezia, and Body Comp Academy (https://bodycompacademy.it). We discuss his internship with Iraki Nutrition, going back to finish his university degree at Università di Ferrara, and how seeking out answers to questions and looking for opportunities with those who are blazing a trail in this industry is the best and most effective way to become more competent and deliver the most value to those you work with. The bottom line, Elia didn't wait for a good job or education to land in his lap. He sought these things out and is constantly looking to gain more knowledge and experience so he can give back to his clients, content consumers, and anyone looking to improve their physiology.
