Customer Reviews
Fantastic podcast, content
Loved your conversation with Jay Alderton about how to master your mind and change your body. What really resonated with me was his candid discussion of mindset and how it affects action or inaction. Tons of amazing takeaways in this episode! 🙏
Love Lucy, but…
I really enjoy the topics discussed in this podcast and am super inspired by Lucy, in particular. However, I feel deeply uncomfortable and off-put by how often Ben talks over Lucy and/or cuts off what she’s saying. Lucy is an incredible woman and if you’re going to be her husband, you ought to shut up and listen to what she has to say! Obviously it’s not my place to comment on their relationship itself, BUT when it comes to the podcast it really distracts me from the content of the episodes a lot of the time. And that’s a shame, because I would otherwise 10/10 enjoy them.
I hope this is well-received. I don’t mean to be so harsh, but I also feel it’s an elephant in the room that no one has addressed, so wanted to voice this as a concern.
Truly grateful for all the effort y’all put in!
Fitspiration + suggestion
Been following Lucy on YouTube for awhile, new to the podcast and love it too for fun fitness inspo. Thanks for the seemingly endless content!
Would love if you did an episode on something that is seemingly natural for you guys and every other athlete: thoughts on how to cultivate a “killer instinct”. Put another way: how to get pumped up / locked in as a result of friends pushing you at the gym or a crowd cheering for you on the sidelines, instead of what happens to me (and I’m sure others) which is crumbling under the pressure. I think it’s a mindset thing, like a weak instinct that I can’t do it. I feel i can push myself when im alone, but if someone else says “ya, one more rep!!!” I want to drop the weights and punch them in the throat 🤣 Food for thought! 🤷🏻♀️
