Today Adrian runs a solo episode that helps highlight, in his opinion what the differences are between "training" and "working out". Both have their place and he has dabbled in both, mostly working out at this point in his life now. But the key takeaways are how to understand the application of both and who should consider changing their mindset around how they approach things in the gym based on what they want to get out of it.

In this episode Adrian begins a series about destroying obstcles that often exist between our optimal health and well being and where we currently find ourselves. Essentially everyone creates excuses and reason for themselves not to get to work or not to improve. Sadly, many of these reason seem justified but it's simply due to ignorance. Adrian removes the obstacle by removing the ignorance and reminding us that "training" is quite simple and that we all have ample resources and time to do...

Today Adrian dives into the essential perspective of programming and training. More is not better, better is better. And the harsh truth is that each day in the gym doesn't have to punish you or leave you feeling exhausted.

Not all training is created equal, and you know that if you listen to this podcast on a regular basis.

There is a distinct difference, be sure you listen to the full episode to get all...

Today Adrian dives into the common use of the New year for pivotal actions. He also explains it's limitations and how often this time of the year, as we enter the holiday season in America is the biggest time for set back. Food and nutrition are the foundation for both high performers and everyday humans who want to enhance their quality of life. We have 24 hours in a day, and even for the committed normal humans we typically spend 22-23 of those hours NOT TRAINING. You can't out train a bad...

Today Adrian discusses his thoughts on the qualifier that just finished up last weekend. Was it thorough enough? What did he like about the 5 workouts, what he didn't like about the 5 workouts and everything in between. From a general perspective the opinion is, No. The test overall was not thorough enough to allow only 40 athletes to qualify between the Elite and RX categories. Had this been the first stage of a multi level qualification process then it was awesome. Great workouts to thing...

Ever struggle with performance goals in the gym? The trap is that you do MORE, or go HARDER. Typically most athletes that hit plateaus need rest and recovery. More sleep, more fuel, less stress, then with the introduction of proper training the results can flow. This is the case in life as well. We often need to step back, recharge our batteries and then strategize new approaches. Rest more.

Easier to teach an animal, "Whooaa, now..." than it is to teach "sick 'em!" Today Adrian speaks on aggresor vs. responder and how it is much easier in any walk of life to deal with a human that wants to do too much vs. one that wants to do too little. Many of us are aggressive to the point of set back or failure, but it can be corrected with good coaching and mentorship. On the other hand it is much harder to evoke the opposite response in someone who is timid, soft or faithless in their own...
