    Brendan Hansen is a three time gold medalist Swimmer who showed up at the University of Texas at 18 years old and wrote “Man on a Mission” on tape and placed it on his gym locker. Why was he a man on a mission? He had just lost in the two events at the  Olympic trials and was not going to represent the USA at the Olympics in 2000. That failure motivated him not just as a freshman at Texas but for the next four years. In the four years between 2000 - 2004, he would become the fastest breaststroker in the world and break the world record in the 100m and 200m events.

    In this interview, Mindset Forge host Barton and Brendan discuss how failures can be so motivating, how when he was surrounded by elite swimmers at the University of Texas it brought the best out of him and how we can do that in our own lives to bring the best out of ourselves. And finally, he talks about how  the culture of a great team can be the secret sauce that helps everyone level up to their maximum potential because of peer to peer accountability.

    Established Mindset

    From childhood, the concept of failure was already known to Brendan. He got used to failure quickly because he hung out with his brother’s friends, who are three years older than he is. His parents would describe his mindset as very much like the underdog. So when Brendan got into swimming, he quickly pushed his capabilities to the limit. He had an excellent developmental coach who was there to make every failure a learning opportunity. Whenever Brendan does something wrong, his coach would pull him to the side and tell him how to do it correctly. Having this foundation of mindset was what made Brendan ready to take head-on whatever challenge there is. Being told that he is going to fail his way to success was perceived positively rather than negatively. It was perceived as a way to grow from the experience, and that helps Brendan understand how to tweak moving forward.

    Foundations Episode: Understanding the Importance of Mind and Body Considerations to be our Best.

    In this Solo-cast episode, Barton talks about how we have to consider the body as well as the mind when striving for our goals.  Willing ourselves toward a goal with the best of intentions will only take us so far and we must understand that the body has to be prepped properly to be able to do what we ask when the time comes. 

    Barton discussed mistakes he's made and how he is still reminded that a strong mindset will only take us so far.  We must do the little things to energize the body and promote healthy recovery if we expect our bodies to achieve the level of success we are striving for with our goal.

    IFBB Pro Renee Jewett: This Beauty is an Animal

    Thanks for listening to another episode of the Women’s Maximum Fitness Podcast! 

    We begin season 3 episode 61 with the most requested guest nominee IFBB wellness pro Renee Jewett! This was an amazing conversation jam packed with sarcasm and fitness information as the humble and gorgeous Renee openly speaks on her whole life up until this point. From growing up in Hawaii, to her haphazard first gym experiences, to finding truth and direction in bodybuilding and life when she met her husband 212 Olympian IFBB pro John Jewett. At 3 weeks out from her pro debut, I’m honored to have spent a couple hours with this wellness gem of a human. Renee attributes her success to “just being herself” and continues to prove day after day that beauty is a beast.

    Train Like a Girl: Introduction to Natural Bodybuilding

    Thanks for listening to another episode of the Women’s Maximum Fitness Podcast!

    This is the premier video about training for 2021 providing an overview explaining the evolution of my training style. With this base of information, the goal of this video is to help you evaluate your current training and goals and design training according to your level of athleticism, time, and capability. Please share any questions to my social media Instagram (@buffcake22 or @womensmaximumfitness) or in the comments on Youtube (buffcake22) I will answer them in another training podcast. My intent with this podcast was to provide a good mix of education and personal experiences (both mine and others, but mostly others). The education equips you with knowledge to apply, the experiences and personal stories provide motivation and relatability. I believe both are important for successful behavior change.
