We can't tell you what you should do... but we can tell you what we think we should do... if we could do it over again. This is about as candid as it gets.
GLP1's are on trend and deserve some space in the dialogue. Manda surprised me with her openness and considerate approach to how they can be used with real benefits.
Our Ego can propell us to do extraordinary things - but it can also cause significant issues if left unattended. In this episode Brandon offers a different approach to some things that athletes take for granted.

Endurance sports opened up later in life for Brandon than one might expect. The pathway is relatable and encouraging. - you too have potential beyond what you imagined possible. Sometimes just saying "yes" to the yet-to-be-discovered is the open doorway.

There was more to say about Pain. It's an important topic so we continued the dialogue to unearth more valuable insights for you.
Pain is a signal your body wants change. We explore what to do about it while you are training so you can expand your capacity without hurting yourself.
