In this episode, I sat down with Chris Soto and Joe Dzubak to discuss the importance of strength training for different populations, including general population individuals, performance athletes, and tactical athletes. We emphasize the need for a well-rounded approach to strength training, focusing on hypertrophy, slow speed strength, and resistance training. We provide insights into how to educate and guide individuals who are new to strength training, emphasizing the importance of finding a program that fits their schedule, providing feedback and modifications, and building a strong coach-athlete relationship. We also address common misconceptions about strength training, such as the fear of becoming too bulky, and highlight the benefits of strength training for overall health, body composition, and injury prevention. We discuss the specific considerations for performance athletes, such as endurance runners and field sport athletes, and how strength training can complement their training programs. Lastly, we touch on the importance of leg development, work capacity, load carriage, and concurrent training for tactical athletes preparing for selection courses.

Today we have the legend himself Danny Martinello back on the podcast for his second appearance! His first one was one of my favourite podcasts of all time (VDC #164) and if you haven't heard it you should definitely go check it out before or after this one!  So I was super pumped to get Danny back on to hear about his Summer making money up in the patch before he leaves us for the bright lights of the big apple come the new year! No comic is more deserving and I can't wait to see Danny do some serious damage in the New York scene but i'm also super appreciative to have him speak on where he is mentally leading up to such a big change and it sounds like he is confident and ready to kick some ass! Go follow Danny on Instagram at @dannymartinello and don't miss the amazing show he has at the grindstone theatre Oct 25th.

I also did a long ass intro where i broke down the latest developments with the greatest comedy show in Edmonton Trish's Asylum at @themoonyeg inclduing our record breaking 9hr show we did this last thrusday that had crowd members from 8pm show start to 5am when we called it quits.  So many people told me this idea was crazy or how it would never work and to see it produce magic week after week makes me so proud.  I think it goes to show just what an amazing comedy scene Edmonton has so go out and support it yall!
