  • Podcast has turned into an advertisement for becoming a member

    Used to be a staple of my triathlon and fitness education and was a former PP athlete but I feel that podcasts as of late are just advertisements for becoming a PP athlete.

  • Used to be better

    I was a big follower and also bought the books. However in the last year or so, this seems to have become a commercial platform pushing testing companies and other products. Has become a lot like Triathlon Taren (Motiv). Hopefully can come back from this…..

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

394 - Kona-Bound on 6-10 Hrs/Wk: A Busy Doctor & Mom Just Rewrote the IRONMAN Training Playbook
Q: So why don't you just give the listeners a little grounding of who is Stephanie, your upbringing, where you grew up, your family now, education and everything that shaped you?
Stephanie shares growing up in Portland, early athletic life, a medical education path, and how she shifted from being a self-described nerd to a physician who uses structured, focused training to manage a busy life. She explains balancing family, career, and sport while staying motivated.
393 - Female Performance Through Perimenopause and Menopause with Rachel Schaefer
Q: What is the dominant theme of this conversation?
The dominant theme is reframing menopause as a developmental phase that can be managed with a tailored toolkit of nutrition, recovery, and strength training to sustain or elevate performance.
390 - The Way Of Excellence With Brad Stulberg
Q: How should athletes think about motivation when it rises and falls?
Motivation is overrated; starting creates momentum. If motivation flags, focus on consistent action and the process, and use that as a cue to re-engage rather than waiting for motivation to appear.
390 - The Way Of Excellence With Brad Stulberg
Q: What does excellence look like for an endurance athlete on an ordinary day?
Brad describes it as showing up consistently with intention and integrity, aligning actions with values, and executing the workout or practice with discipline, so that the ongoing process builds the athlete and the person.
388 - Burnout to Sub-3 Marathon: Trusting the Process with Coaching
Q: What would be your one piece of advice for someone stuck in a similar situation?
Give yourself some grace during this difficult period. You're not alone, and be patient with yourself.
