What motivates you? It seems to me that each athlete is motivated by driving forces that uniquely play to their greatest fears. While the experiences that shaped those fears may be as varied as the individual themself, common themes can be observed across the board. Get John and Tex’s take on motivating factors in this week’s conversation.
Motivation can come in a lot of forms. Some of it is as transparent and shallow as the carefully chosen filter used to promote it. When it comes to consistently driving performance, what sticks? What do the most proficient athletes feed on to commit to their training day in and day out? This week we dive into just that with a talk dedicated to motivation.

What was sport before carefully planned strength and conditioning programs existed? What was it like when the only athletes you saw in the weight room were the injured ones? Few people remember the days when training for any sport was comprised of little more than running long distance. But Boyd Epley not only remembers it vividly, but he was part of a pioneering few who actually reformed this broken system. He’s a god at the University of Nebraska and a founder of the NSCA.
Boyd Epley, legendary strength coach hailing from the University of Nebraska changed the game. Literally. He was able to convey the importance of power over conditioning for football players, which was not an easy fight. What followed was some of the most dominant performances the sport had ever seen and proof that Boyd was onto something big. Soon, universities the nation over would be attempting to replicate his program.

It’s been a long time since we visited the biological principles of strength development. If you are a new coach, a student, or a curious athlete, this episode is vital to understanding some of the more complex concepts of human performance, like rate of force development, compensatory accelleration, hypertrophy, post activation potentiation, and so much more. A huge thank you to our guest, Antonio Squillan for making these digestable even for the Power Athlete meathead.
Exploring the science behind strength and power development is what Antonio Squillan does best. Somehow he was able to make time for John and Tex while getting his PhD at USC. The only thing more impressive than Antonio’s coaching background is his expertise in human performance.

Coach Davis believes we stand on the precipice of where intelligent training meets biological potential. Finally the responsible and effective S&C approach that high school athletes deserve.

Luckily, The Good Athlete Project’s Jim Davis has an optimistic outlook on where things are headed at the high school level.

Happy New Year Power Athlete Nation. This week we’re bringing back Michael Matthews to discuss his new book, Muscle For Life. There is no question that the guy knows how to get people fit, but this book is even more geared to the 40 and over crowd, which, lets be honest, can struggle with maintaining muscle and staying lean. But of course, no PA conversation would be complete without some covid coverage and philosophical banter.
Michael Matthews wants you to have Muscle For Life. Not just the young go-hards, but the middle aged folk who’ve maybe let training take a back seat to their other responsibilities. His simple yet effective approach is what makes him appealing to the masses. You don’t have to be a so-called “athlete” to see results.

How can I sum up this episode? Well, Brett Bartholomew is basically in the drivers seat of a vision quest to be the best coach, person, leader, human, you want to be. The author of Conscious Coaching does allow for the typical Power Athlete detours along the way - movies, politics, child rearing, and of course, Welbourn stories. It’s the guidance you’ve been looking from a guy who has done the research.
Brett Bartholomew is the author of Conscious Coaching and founder of Art of Coaching. He also has a thick beard and a raspy voice…so yes, he meets the universal coaching criteria. But this leader holds more than just a stopwatch. His expertise lies in communicating with athletes to achieve the best positive result. How, you ask, does he accomplish this? Tune in.

Tex talks with Kev Toonen and Owen Franks about the sport’s transition through COVID and the challenges that presented. This amazing discussion gives us insight into the culture, leadership, training, and growth of a team from both player and coach perspectives. And, never underestimate the power of shittalking. With all the cultural shifts occurring, may the ribbing between players never cease.
Coach Kev Toonen and rugby great, Owen Franks join the show to discuss the resilience of the sport during the recent lockdown. It’s a testament to the dedicated players and supporters that teams made massive sacrifices to keep the sport alive. Maybe it’s also why Kev Toonen says that his team has such high standards for character. Teams win when they play with teammates they respect.

Dr Tom is someone near and dear to us who has historically spent most of his time researching how to perform and live forever. Now he’s added tackling many of the common diseases which shorten our lifespan to his list of hobbies. His research has shown that generally, the pharmaceutical approach to curing these issues is far from optimal. Listen to this episode and let the good doctor heal you.
You never want to miss an episode with Causentia’s Dr Tom Incledon. He’s the smartest guy in any room and his only weakness is shirts that combine the style of Guy Fieri and a magic eye poster. His work has spanned from performance, to longevity, and overcoming debilitating diseases with appropriate nutritional treatment. The man is a genius and one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet.

Training to be the best in your sport is one thing, coaching is a whole other animal. Hear how former powerlifter Travis Mash learned to invoke a healthy shittalking environment, his thoughts on the International Olympic Committee, and his struggles adapting to coaching female lifters. And a healthy dose of movie discussion to remind you that Tom Cruise has never made a bad movie and that Mel Gibson played one hell of a tactical Santa.
Travis Mash takes good weightlifters and makes them exceptional. But he doesn’t mince words about how few actually make it to big events like the Olympics. He’s driven by performance and quite frankly, gets all the social interaction he can handle by coaching. It’s obvious he’s dedicated to his athletes because he knows almost nothing about movies that have come out in the last 5 years. But we won’t hold that against him.

Jay Cutler has distinguished himself among greats like Dorian Yates, Arnold Schwarzenegger and of course, his lifelong rival, Ronnie Coleman. Growing up in small town Massechusettes, Jay still pinches himself when he reflects on all he’s accomplished.
One of the biggest names in the history of bodybuilding joins us to talk about what it actually takes to be the best in a highly subjective sport. Jay Cutler’s incredible story of dedication to not only his training but his recovery practices is both the reason for his renowned success and also his ability to live a healthy and fulfilled life long after hanging up the spray tan.

Since a catastrophic injury, he has reshaped himself from the inside out, focusing on accountability and virtue first. These traits have carried him into his current position with Sorinex and no doubt given him life PR’s that can simply not be quantified.

High School athletics is as dramatic as Game of Thrones seasons 1-6, especially when it comes to football. Sport coaches pulling athletes away from being a multi-sport kid dangling (or threatening) a starting position. Kids looking for extra work with a strength or skills coach can be potentially black-balled for not be a "team player". We won't even get started on politics and parents! So where does the private sector coach fit into all this?

We live in a culture where buzzer beater player gets all the glory. Rarely is credit given to the players who set the stage for that shot to even take place. Not in the world of leadership coach, Jamy Bechler. He doesn’t believe in a system where the concept of “TEAM” is constantly referenced, but rarely acknowledged. This is where balance and cohesion are really developed.
