The Active Life Podcast

Lindy Barber is one o the most decorated CrossFit Games athletes in history having competed twice as an individual and twice as a team athlete. She has taken first place and second place in the affiliate cup with Team Mayhem. Five years ago Lindy had a catastrophic spinal injury that put all of these accolades in major doubt. On this episode we discuss overcoming adversity, coaching for populations with injury, and what the mindset of training for at team is like as compared to the mindset of training to compete individually. In listening to this episode you will be blown away by the person who Lindy is the same way that we have been. It is a must listen.

Dr. DeBell is a self described adult who has a formal education in chiropractic. He refuses to identify himself as a profession, he prefers to think of himself as the sum of life experience applied (a thought process I relate to). Dr. DeBell travels the country delivering workshops at an unbelievable clip of 30+ per year. He has created digital continuing education content for athletes and coaches, and in this workshop we talk very casually about everything from how to maintain a successful marriage with such a crazy travel schedule to how an athlete can better prioritize their training. This was an enjoyable episode to record and we will most definitely be doing another one in the future. Enjoy!

Dr. Horschig is a physical therapist, a weightlifter, and the author of “The Squat Bible”. The massive growth of his social media account is just one way to quickly recognize that Dr. Horschig is delivering valuable content that people need to hear. In this episode we talk about topics like where your feet should be during a squat, how to design your program, when pain is a problem, and many other topics, my favorite of which was “squat shaming” and how you can avoid being a victim or a bully as it pertains to the topic.   Dr. Horschig can be found at: @squatuniversity   We can be found at: @activeliferx www.performancecarerx.com

We're back from our CrossFit Games break. A diagnosis is great because it can drive an intervention. A diagnosis can also be a disaster for people who begin to identify as their set of symptoms. In this episode I talk about taking off the bubble wrap and getting back to enjoying your life.   We can be found at: @activeliferx www.PerformanceCareRx.com www.youtube.com/theactivelife

Many people would look at the opportunity to take on elite CrossFit athletes with high exposure as a chance to boost their career. Max looks at it as a privilege and a responsibility. Coach to Noah Ohlsen, Travis Mayer, and many others, business owner, and staff developer are just a few of the hats that Max wears. I found Max by stumbling onto his content on the Training Think Tank youtube channel and I was immediately drawn in. I found myself breaking out a pad and a pen to take notes and learn. This man is smart, humble, and passionate. In this episode he provides practical advice to new and experienced coaches and athletes. There is truly something in it for everyone who takes fitness seriously.   Max can be found at: @trainingthinktank www.trainingthinktank.com www.youtube.com/trainingthinktank   We can be found at: @activeliferx www.performancecarerx.com
