My name is Phil Hueston, and I am not your average pretty trainer. I've spent 20 years in the fitness profession and made enough mistakes to know I don't know squat. After working with high-level athletes, busy moms and dads, kids of all ages and even Autistic and special needs clients, I've learned that it's not all about sets, reps and meal prep. I explore all 4 Pillars of Fitness (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual) with my clients, and I'll do the same right here. Join me for a sometimes irreverent journey through the "fit-mosphere!"

    Overeating? Here's Six Reasons To Stop

    Do you find yourself indulging in high-calorie, high-fat and -sugar foods a bit too often? We all crave "comfort foods" or treats now and then. During the pandemic craziness, some of us even turned to these foods to relieve stress, while others saw their nutrition habits laid waste by the lockdowns and other "new normal" nonsense. But there are reasons to stop overeating, if you are now. Those same reasons apply to avoiding overeating, if you don't right now. Today, I'm sharing six really good reasons to stop or avoid overeating and get your nutrition habits on track. Join me!

    On Solitude and the Opinions of Others

    Do you spend time in solitude? I don't mean by yourself, scrolling through your social media feeds looking at what all your "friends" are doing. Real solitude. Disconnected from everything but the sound of your own thoughts. Making your way through days without the background noise of social media, news and nonsense. You might be surprised what you learn about yourself when your internal voice becomes the one you hear the loudest. On today's episode, I'm sharing some of what I discovered when I took off, set up camp and shut out the rest of the world. As always, I hope what I've learned will help you become better in all four pillars of your fitness and health. Give it a listen and don't shy about sharing your thoughts!

    Coach Feedback Is Brain Food For Athletes

    Feedback is important to the training process. Whether your athlete is learning a new lift, honing speed technique or developing a new sport skill, feedback can improve the process. It can sometimes mean the difference between failing and succeeding. But what if feedback is even more important than that? What if feedback, done well and done right, can actually improve an athlete's brain? Join me for a look at how coaching feedback impacts the developing brains of young athletes. We'll look at how emotion, perception and experience influence the "wiring" of an athletes' brain. I'll also offer some practical ideas for improving your feedback and communication as a coach, fitness pro or even a parent.

    Youth Sports and Kids Emotional Health: A Study Review

    Youth sports, especially in the US, has taken a lot of criticism lately. Not so much for the actual playing of the sports themselves. The criticism usually involves the behaviors, attitudes and actions of the adults involved. Generally, it's always been thought that playing sports is good for kids. Most people who've played youth sports would likely agree. In today's episode, I review a study out of Montreal that links playing youth sports between 6 and 10 with better emotional health outcomes at age 12 and beyond. Is this true? Can they back up their claims? Listen in and get the low-down!
