The first Zoom meeting I did that involved our members at Adonis Athletics aswell as members of the public introducing them to Stoic philosophy and how you can use it to bring so much clarity to your life, reduce anxiety and have an ability to make decisions. Listen to where Stoicism came from and my first lesson that makes you get your mind set for the right direction.

Working hard is the cornerstone of achieving anything big and significant. No doubt about it. but at what point does "working hard" become "spinning your wheels"? I delve into this and explore burnout and what working hard really is, or at least should be. I also touch on the magic of the 80/20 rule and how it should be utilised for maximizing efficiency.

Our brain wants to protect us and keep us in comfort, but the seeking of too much comfort and too much luxury get you out of touch with reality and put you out of practice and out of preparation for when the real world comes. It can make one thing to chase bigger things harder. Seeking too much comfort, being too entitled, seeking luxuries too often all can play a part in your own dismantling at some point. You have to keep your mind and body sharp while actively seeking discomfort on a regular basis if you want to have an edge over yourself and over your competitors in whatever field you are in. As always thank you for listening, thank you for your questions and thank you for your support. Send me your questions and feedback on Instagram @the_sportperformancecoach

How individualised does your training really need to be? What does individualisation really even mean and to what degree does it apply to people's programs? Does every single person's program need to be drastically different because they are an individual? Can 2 programs be almost exactly the same and still yield great results? If so does it make it a good idea to do so? I'm going to explore all of these questions and more in this episode. As usual I want to know what you guys think and I want you to share this episode, like the podcast, rate the podcast and tell your friends about the podcast. Thank you for listening

Watching the recent UFC fight between Conor and Cowboy it was clear that Conor is back. Not just the fighting skills but the focus and the drive. I followed all major interviews in the lead up to the fight and the post fight press conference after the fight and there was something Conor himself talked about that put it all together very neatly and that was his perception of the role of commitment. In this episode I talk about my take on what I saw and heard, what I think commitment REALLY means and how you can apply it right now to CRUSH your goals this year. Hey, I want to hear your feedback. I want to hear how you are applying the principles in these podcasts to get after it every day.

The opposite of fear is not courage it's something else that every single one of us can do and has the full potential to execute on. In this episode I go through a conversation I had with a close friend about getting the things we want in life and not letting fear stop us. as usual I want to know what you guys think and how you actually put the lessons in the podcast to real life use. Thank you for listening I always appreciate every single listener and supporter.

What is your purpose in life? How do you find the answer to this huge and super loaded question? Tune in on the first episode of my new segment - The Winner's Mindset where every week I'll be talking about what it means to be a winner and squeeeeeeze more juice out of life no matter where you are currently in your life.

Maybe. Maybe not. Let's talk about it.

Perspective is everything and sometimes giving too much weight to something can prevent you from getting to your goals. Motivation can be fickle because it's just an emotion yet so much of our decisions revolve around whether we have it or not. Maybe it's time for a bit of a change if you want better results. Maybe we shouldn't base the decision to act on motivation maybe you should be based on other more important things. Let me know what you guys think.

Everything really starts in your own mind. You manifest all major goals in your life by what you think. Everything starts as a thought before it becomes a reality or a tangible thing. This is why your belief in yourself is first priority - if this isn't in place whatever program or diet you have isn't going to do what it's supposed to do. And getting people to understand this is one of my main goals and tasks as a coach. Smash the subscribe button and make sure to share the crap out of this because I know people can make use of this.

Learn to listen to your body to balance training hard with recovery. You can tell and therefore measure how recovered you are by asking yourself a couple of questions daily.

Someone who loves to get on stage and perform needs to be approached and dealt with much different to someone who gets anxious just thinking about going to the gym. Both of these types of personality types can achieve world class results - but the right guidance and approach is needed.

The stress response is real and the more you can do to reduce it's effect on your body and energy during competition the better your performance will always be. Always.

Here is how to perform better in comp. Let me know your thoughts. Hit subscribe if you want to get more awesome content and share this with someone who'll find it useful.

Train how you're going to compete. Do your program the way it was meant to be done. The coach influences the athlete.

How important is muscle size and how does it effect performance as a strength athlete? Are you wasting time and hurting long term progress by hanging in your current weight class?

Human psychology and motivation is a part of my job I really enjoy and as a coach you would be doing yourself and your athletes a disservice if you didn't have any interest in it. You are basically a shrink every day and if you know how to get people to motivate themselves by understanding what exactly it is that motivates each of us then you can really make an impact. This episode are some of my thoughts on just this topic.

Feeling fried 2 weeks into your new training program? Hitting plateaus? Feeling tired? You need to understand how stress works and how it effects recovery and your gains.
