The Strong Coach — Understanding Your Client's Needs w/ Aleks Rybchinskiy — 2 Jun 29, 2018

Show notes

Aleks Rybchinskiy is a Neurosomatic Therapist with nearly a decade in the field working to heal clients by applying integrative and holistic therapies and methodologies mastered through accelerated completions of the prestigious practitioner programs at CHEK Institute in California, and Neurosomatic Educators Institute in Clearwater, FL.

Aleks works with clients from all ages to address weight loss, muscle gain, pain, physiological imbalances, TMJ, frozen shoulder, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, carpal tunnel, headaches/migraines, visceral massage, cranial alignment, and many more. He also has a roster of clients all over the country, and is available for services and care outside of the Chicago & Austin area per schedule availability.

After spending the morning together, chatting and doing the podcast I hired Aleks to be my coach. If you're in Austin, that's great, as you can work with him in person. If you are not, I work with him remotely myself, so you can do the same.

In this episode, Aleks talks about how he began trusting himself as he started learning about what he's interested in, how subconscious beliefs impact coaching and health, why typical SMART goals are only the surface and aren't going to lead to long-term client satisfaction, how to live authentically and present as a coach, how to create compliance with your clients, how to create a network and work with other coaches and trainers, and more.

Feed Me Fuel Me — Your Message is in Your Mess w/ Tony Grebmeier - 93 Jun 28, 2018

Show notes

Tony Grebmeier (@tonygrebmeier) is a partner and co-founder of ShipOffers and host of the Be Fulfilled podcast. Originally from Santa Cruz, California, Tony had begun a journey training for the Olympics in water polo before a knee surgery derailed his plan. During his rehabilitation, Tony would find himself addicted to pain medication and alcohol which would lead him down a dark path. Despite his eventual commercial success, he describes it as a process to hide his pain and addiction from the world. One fateful day, alone, and contemplating taking his own life, he received a phone call from a friend who would interrupt him and inadvertently change the course of his life.

Over the past 17 years, Tony and two childhood best friends have built an extremely profitable business, and Tony has used the resultant resources to spread a message of prosperity and fulfillment. He has coined the phrase, "Your Message Came From Your Mess". He leads his guidance with a singular question, "Are you willing?" Are you willing to leave "life's dumpster" behind and move forward towards what you truly want from this life. In this episode, Tony walks us through the "Smile Exercise", a part of his daily routine that facilitates his GROWTH (Gratitude, Reality, Open-mindedness, Willingness, Teachability, and ultimately his Happiness).

While honing his GROWTH philosophy, ShipOffers has become a Inc 5000 company for the past 4 years. Tony's life philosophy is centered around three fundamental principles: Chase the Wins, Study the Lessons, and Never Quit.

The Strong Coach — Secrets to Overcoming Distractions and Being The Best Coach w/ Jeremy Thiel — 1 Jun 22, 2018

Show notes

Jeremy Thiel has been successfully running his box, CrossFit Central for 13 years! As a box owner, he kept focus on challenging himself and those around him to consistent excellence.

Blessed with the heart of an athlete, mind of a leader, and an entrepreneurial spirit, Jeremy is not only effective in his approach to business, but also extremely gifted in motivating people to achieve their own goals. His intense drive and dedication to succeed in the life has laid the foundation for his innovative approach to leadership.

In this episode, Jeremy shares his story about getting into CrossFit early in 2005, and how he established himself early by attending the L1 seminar every 6 weeks. He also talks about his career as a competitor, and when his CNS hit a point that removed him from competition, and led him to take over a year off from training, until he found the Wim Hof Method.

Jeremy soon underwent a mindset shift that turned his gym into an explosive business. He explains that his awesome team of coaches is formed not through training, but on instilling in them ideas of mental growth and responsibility. He also talks about his strategies to continue his own learning in how the human body works, and much more.

Enjoy!

Barbell Shrugged - Mindset of a Champion w/ 2x UFC Champion Dominick Cruz -320 Jun 20, 2018

Show notes

Dominick Cruz is an American mixed martial artist. He fights in the Ultimate Fighting Championship and is a two-time UFC Bantamweight Champion. Cruz was also the final bantamweight titleholder of World Extreme Cagefighting.

Known as one of the top pound-for-pound fighters in mixed martial arts, Cruz is noted for his unorthodox movement, powerful wrestling base, quick striking, and his tendency to attack from angles in a unique fashion unlike any other fighter on the UFC roster.

In this episode, Dom compares maintaining the body of a professional athlete to having a 40 hour/week job. Work needs to be done on the body to keep growing whether or not there are injuries. Dom stresses how importance is it to keeping up conditioning for fighters when they are injured, as they need to be ready to perform when the injury heals. He also discusses how he continues to get better as an athlete while enduring age and injury, and much more.

Enjoy!
