He was one of the first guests on the podcast. I interviewed him for the podcast in episode #5. That was back in 2020 during those lock downs and was on zoom. This time we met up in person and talked about many things he has been up to during these four years and what he has been working on. He talks about the importance of mobility and strength for sport and how one can go about becoming more resilient and healthy human beings. He shares his learnings about training and nutrition for marathon running and ultra distances. We talk about adaptive training plans and their importance in taking specificity to it's logical conclusion and addressing changes to life circumstances of working athletes. He talks about how we can leverage technology not only to take care of some of the more repetitive stuff but also to build communities and knowledge resources for the community. It is always inspiring to see his passion and vision for a better future. I had so much fun with this conversation with him. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did. 0:00:00 Intro 0:06:50 Getting injury without training, focus on mobility and strength 0:17:45 Learnings from focus mobility and strength, joint strength 0:21:10 Functional movement screening protocol, building resilience 0:34:20 Programming for strength and mobility 0:42:00 What excites him now a days in terms of training etc 0:45:30 Learnings from trying Ultra distance, 100k run 0:53:40 Nutrition and race weight 1:00:10 Clean diet, what his daily eating looks like 1:02:00 Leveraging technology to building community and adaptive training 1:13:45 Is AI going to replace a coach? 1:22:30 Closing About the Podcast The working athlete podcast is a podcast with and for working athletes from all walks of life and various sports.

Someone working fulltime/part-time, entrepreneur or anyone who has to work to make ends meet and doesn't let being busy to stop him/her from pursuing an active lifestyle is a working athlete. I consider stay at home moms/dads who pursue a sport, as working athletes because homemaking is a full-time job. If you like this, share with friends who could be interested.
