The Active Life Podcast

Will Skudin is a world renowned big wave surfer. If you don’t know what that means, to simplify it Will rides waves taller than apartment buildings that move faster than you drive through your neighborhood. “You see a pool, I see a horse” is how Will described the ocean. The mindset that goes into what Will does is incredible. In this interview we talk about falling off of a wave and not knowing if he was going to survive as he lost feeling in his arms and legs, starting the largest surf camp in the northeast, and having the patience to wait 8 hours to catch three waves on a great training day. We also discuss culture and what it’s like to consistently be a guest in someone else’s ocean. This conversation got deep, no pun intended. You should give this episode a listen when you can really let yourself relax and take it in.

Dr. William Brady is a disruptor in the soft tissue and joint injury management space. Having graduated as valedictorian in his class from National Chiropractic College, Dr. Brady quickly realized that his education was inadequate as a means to resolving injury. He learned the Active Release Techniques system and became an instructor on their staff only to learn that this system too left him wanting more. This is when Dr. Brady started Integrative Diagnosis – a diagnostic system to determine which soft tissue structures should be treated and how. His system is unparalleled in the management of soft tissue injury. In this episode Dr. Brady discusses the presence of adhesion as a legitimate soft tissue injury – we cover the scientific literature surrounding adhesion, what the skeptics say, how Dr. Brady built his system, and so much more. This is a must listen for anyone dealing with pain or dysfunction.

Logan Gelbrich is a coach’s coach. As soon as we decided to launch a podcast I knew he was at the top of my list for people I wanted to speak with. Logan has created a culture of movement education that is unparalleled and a staff that is completely invested in his mission like it is their own (because in many ways it is). In this episode we speak about topics like servant leadership, growing from failure, CrossFit as a methodology, mindset, writing a book, and so much more. This was an inspiring interview that you will undoubtedly get a lot of value from. Enjoy.
