Street Parking Podcast

Don’t let a calendar dictate your consistency. Don’t look for the reasons you “can’t” commit to being your healthiest self NOW rather than later. And while you’re at it, don’t let anyone tell you Die Hard isn’t a Christmas movie. Join us for the ANTI-New Year, New Me Challenge as we commit to our consistency.

Join coaches Bill Anthes and Daniel Hong, as they we explore the five essential psychological skills that can elevate your mindset and drive success in any area of life.

Join Miranda in talking about the 10 general physical skills and also 5 essentials of mindset that we can intentionally build into our training to ensure a fitness that prepares us for whatever life throws our way!!

What is your belief around isolation or "bodybuilding" type movements in your training? Are bicep curls and triceps extensions blasphemy? Or do you see these movements as critical? Can you gain aesthetics, fitness, or consistency without them??? We have some thoughts...so     Dive in with Miranda and Julian as they are joing by our newest Street Parking Coach, Danny Lopez.

Great programming requires both science and art. It's a balance of understanding movement, intensity, and the mental side with creatively and elegantly designing workouts that deliver real results and allow for engagement and consistency. And I love it. Spent over an hour today talking about variance. Why it's critical to well rounded - "ready for anything" - fitness, and how you can start to look at your workouts through that lens. True variance cannot be "random", but must be carefully crafted to fill in gaps, expand the margins of our experience, and (as best as possible) prevent bias in any one area. Load, reps, time, equipment, scheme, movements and movement combinations - all like ingredients for a recipe. It all boils down to - what are you trying to make?

Everyone works out with a goal in mind: get stronger, get faster, etc.. In this podcast, Miranda talks about the ~key~ to optimal results: intensity. Buckle up and listen in on how intensity is an important ingredient in your fitness routine. 

RUCK-Tober is upon us! In this podcast, Bill and Karianne Anthes (Between the Ears) walk us through the mindset of RUCK-Tober: what's in your ruck--literally and mentally. Join us for a talk about how to approach the monthly focus and what kind of growth comes from accepting the challenge of adding some more gravity to your routine.

Rucking - could there be anything that fits the #SimpleNotEast mold better? RUCK-TOBER is Street Parking's October challenge/focus for our members. It's all about expanding the marigins of our experience and acheiving something new and fun together.

One last push and the Sisyphus Gauntlet is over. For the fourth and final workout in this series, we bring you an hour sled push. In this episode, Bill and Karianne Anthes talk resistance: sometimes it's a life season, sometimes it's pushing a fully loaded sled on turf. Regardless of what you're facing, don't run away from it. 

We talk about the “WHY” when it comes to selecting the most effective movements for our daily workouts. There are many ways to “look fit” - but it’s undeniable that certain movements and movement patterns are just way more effective and critical to actually improving your ACTUAL fitness and quality of life. Spoiler - they are also the most efficient use of your time and most effective choice for aesthetics as well. There is a time and a place for all sorts of training - but if you want the biggest bang for your buck, and best use of your (likely limited) time - come hang out and let’s talk about why MOVEMENT CHOICE MATTERS.

The third week of Sis-tember is The Effort: an hour of burpees. In this episode, Bill and Karianne Anthes discuss the mindset of this challenge and how growth and willpower is found in the unknown. 

CrossFit. It’s not The Games (or training like a Games athlete). It’s not blacking out. It’s not lifting followed by an intense met-con. It’s probably not at all what you think it is. Join me LIVE from my car - where I rant a bit about the misunderstandings I see around the methodology, and why after 17 years it’s what I still choose as the foundation for my own training and the SP program.

Welcome to the second week of Sis-tember! This week Bill and Karianne discuss The Carry and a few things to keep in mind while partaking in the challenge, from weighted object to "The Carry" mentality. 

Kicking off the first week of Sis-tember, we have first challenge in the Sisyphus Gauntlet: The Hill. In this episode, Bill and Karianne give insight into the first week of the Gauntlet and the importance of turning and facing the challenges we face head on

The month of September at Street Parking is all about the Sisyphus Gauntlet. As a community, we put a lot of effort into becoming the best physical versions of ourselves, but what about the best versions of ourselves in the mental capacity? In the Street Parking community, we grow the most through hard things. The month of Sis-tember is all about putting ourselves into a position to grow, even though it's uncomfortable. In this double-episode, Miranda gives some perspective on growth and reintroduces the Between the Ears duo, Bill and Karianne Anthes, on the importance of physical and mental effort. 

The concept of accountability is nothing new to the Street Parking community. That being said, what does accountability look like when it surpasses the individual level? How does your individual accountability shift when you're not the only one aware of your goals?
