endurance athletes

Busy endurance athletes have the best of intentions when it comes to mobility and yoga, but it's often the first thing to go when our schedules get packed or when training picks up. But that's exactly when marathoners and triathletes need it the most! In this episode of Coach Quip, we break down the differences between flexibility, mobility, and yoga, and discuss five benefits endurance athletes see from adding a mobility or yoga practice to their training.

He has trained 30 CrossFit Games champions, along with a series of Olympians, professional surfers, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu world champions.

What would you do if your business caught on fire and you lost everything? How would you respond?

Our guest on this episode, Aubrey Janik, shares her story about how her restaurant franchise caught on fire and forced her to "pivot" before it was even a thing.  She has taken that lesson and has now created multiple income streams.

Aubrey has an impressive background by having been the youngest franchisee in a franchise system, she has built a social media following of more than 34,000 followers on YouTube, she is a franchise consultant with Big Sky Franchise Team (we love her), and she has a side-hustle with a car rental company.  Oh, and by the way, she has done all of this by the time she turned 27!

Amy Christian took it just a little bit further than the average human. Amy has completed upwards of 20 marathons, countless 50-mile trail runs (literally, she can't remember how many she has done) and even an almost impossible to comprehend 100-mile mountain climbing trail run. This woman has some serious grit! Amy throws out some serious life-lessons about just putting one foot in front of the other, focusing on forwarding progression at all times, and making small adjustments that yield huge results. Amy sincerely believes that any physical feat is possible for any person. If you want to be inspired to start on that bucket list marathon or figure out how to push yourself a little bit beyond your comfort zone.... listen to this episode.

Happy Friday Everyone!

David here to announce that we are launching a new component of The Essential Strength Podcast today called Fit & Healthy Friday!!

Every Friday you will get a bite sized podcast covering a health and fitness topic that you can apply to your own life. Think of it as a little gift at the end of a long week, and something to take with you into the weekend as motivation to keep moving in the right direction - THE HEALTHY DIRECTION!

Today, we're reviewing an article that was originally published in Outdoor Magazine's online platform titled - To Delay Death, Lift Weights (click the title to read the full article)

This article was also shared on the Reading List at https://www.strongerinmotion.com
which is the home of my personal training and nutrition business, Stronger In Motion.

In this mini-pod you'll learn about how two different research studies looking at large groups of adults found indicators that would suggest strength training and developing muscle strength may reduce your chance of death when compared to similar but untrained individuals. It definitely motivated me to get in the gym today, and I hope it motivates you to either keep hitting the weights, or to start training for strength as it appears to have some solid anti-aging benefits!

Hope ya'll have a GREAT weekend, and until next time - We wish you STRENGTH and GOOD HEALTH!

There have been plenty of headlines over the years about the supposed dangers of endurance sports. Starting back in 1984 when Jim Fixx, the author of The Complete Book of Running died of a heart attack in his mid-50's, the suspicions about the supposed dangers of endurance sports have made for great headlines. What doesn't generally hit the news is the full story (e.g., that Fixx was a life-long smoker and his father died of a 2nd heart attack in his early 40's). But the fears are legitimate. Many of us have friends who are incredible athletes who have experienced heart issues, the dramatic headlines continue, and physicians, without exact answers to the question "what should I do," often defer to the (understandably) conservative answer of "stop."

Fortunately, the research community is beginning to take a deeper dive into this issue. They are looking at whether these heart issues are anomalies or cause and effect. On this week's episode, we were extremely fortunate to have two of the researchers who recently completed a study looking at the heart risk in long-time, serious endurance athletes. Their findings may surprise you - and they're likely to add a critical piece to this puzzle around the athlete's heart risk
