Strength Chat

In this weeks Strength Chat, I was joined by registered dietitian, personal trainer, and competitive powerlifter, Dan Feldman. As more people start to participate in strength sports and training, it’s only natural that they look at information on nutrition as well. However, there can be a lot of misleading information out there to filter through. Therefore, in this episode, we chatted about the misconceptions around strength athletes’ nutrition, health vs performance, and losing and maintaining weight.

It was great to catch up with this guy in this weeks Strength Chat after last speaking with him back in episode 107. Today I was joined by The Barbell Physio, Zach Long. The content and information that Zach puts out there is awesome. He strikes that balance between still getting his clients and athletes to still train hard, but also work around, manage, and progress from their injuries or niggles. In this episode we chatted about adding mobility into your training, working on weak links to get stronger, as well as training around injuries.

I last spoke to this guy back in episode 57 and 101, which were really popular episodes. This week I caught up with the one and only, Jordan Syatt. Having followed Jordan for some time, I really buy in to his approach to coaching. He doesn’t beat around the bush and says it how it is, even if that means that some people may not like it. With that in mind, in this episode, we chatted about why working out isn’t all about burning calories, why being 100% all the time isn’t sustainable, and how to adjust your goals.

In this week’s episode I was joined by 4x Paralympian, winning a silver medal at the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games, Ali Jawad. The success Ali has had in Para Powerlifting is awesome, competing at the highest level and breaking numerous world records, so to be able to chat with him and hear his story was great. Therefore, in this episode, we chatted about how he started Para Powerlifting, his career and mindset around training, as well as life after competing and his new app venture.

It was an absolute pleasure to be joined this week on Strength Chat by strength coach and the Co-Founder of Jailhouse Strong, Josh Bryant. With the entry level to start to strength training being so low, and the benefits to a persons physical and mental health being so great, it’s sometimes surprising how overcomplicated it can be made. Ultimately, what we talk about in this episode, there are some key principles that we must follow consistently to get strong. This was a great chat where we covered the fundamentals of strength, functional vs barbell strength, and how to keep getting stronger.

In this week’s Strength Chat, it was a pleasure to be joined by one of the worlds leading authorities on strength and power training for sports athletes, as well as the former President of the Australian Strength and Conditioning Association, Dan Baker. To be able to chat with someone of Dans experience, knowledge, and success was awesome. From working with a variety of sports to the success he then had at the Brisbane Broncos, it was great to hear his thoughts on implementing and progressing strength and conditioning strategies.

In this week’s Strength Chat, I was joined by an athlete and coach who has competed in strongman, powerlifting, and bodybuilding, Brittany Diamond. Having competed in such a variety of strength sports, it was great to hear the lessons that Brittany had learnt from them all and how she has applied those lessons to her own training, but also to the work she does with her clients. Therefore, in this episode, Brittany’s experiences competing in strength sports, the impact on how she felt, as well as all things training and nutrition.

I last spoke to this guy way back in Episode 170 and it was great to catch up with him again in this week’s Strength Chat. In this episode I was joined by the creator of Compound Performance, Kyle Dobbs. I have followed Kyles content for some time now and buy in to a lot of his coaching and training philosophies. There’s a lot of information out there and sometimes, for clients and coaches, it can be hard to filter out the noise.
