Jump in and listen at any time for any episode. You'll never be lost or behind. Not a place where you come for instructions or a "How To", but a place to relax, open up your mind, and hear some guy ruminating over the mic. Vibe check required
Mike has been working with me for a little over a month and a half and I wanted to ask him questions about his experience working with me. Hope you enjoy
This episode is a special one to me. Travis is a good friend of mine and definitely someone I could spend hours talking to about anything. I hope you enjoy our talk about his recovery journey and more.
Here's what I think you should do if you've taken a long break and are coming back to the gym
Wife and I talk about a bunch of stuff behind the perspective of competition and what it's like to do your first meet
My long winded origin story and thoughts on my experience with powerlifting and bodybuilding
Man I really went on a tangent but this episode is featuring my wife. We kind of just ramble on. I promise that everything is relevant, but particularly if you're interested in basic training and mentality principles, comparing yourself to others, or just don't know how to find any guidance or resources.
Brief talk about venting vs dumping.
Bottom line, spend time becoming stronger than your problems and doing something about your issues. Talk about things with people if you need to but do so with the intent to solve the problem, not just to get your feelings out there.
How much do you let your emotions affect your ability to move forward and focus on improving yourself and the situation?
Do you have trouble expressing your emotions in a healthy way?
Do you want to STAY in your emotions and STAY feeling upset/angry/frustrated/sad because you don't actually want to do the work to change yourself or your circumstances?
On the first episode of Sampai Speaks, I talk a bit about why I got in the gym in the first place and how my motives have changed over the years and invite my good friend Blaine to do the same.
