    Ep 070 - Tested Belief: What Happens When Things Go Wrong? | Part 2

    Welcome back to Ep 070 of The TrainAnything Show! This week, Dylan and John continue the Belief Is Everything series with Part 2: Tested Belief. If borrowed belief is what gets us started, tested belief is what determines whether we keep going. The conversation dives into what happens when setbacks challenge what we believe about ourselves, our fitness, and our potential. From getting dropped in training and race-day disappointments to injuries, missed goals, and moments of self-doubt, Dylan and John explore how athletes often create limiting stories from temporary setbacks. They discuss the critical difference between experiencing a setback and making that setback part of your identity, and why a bad outcome doesn't have to become a bad future. Along the way, they share personal experiences, lessons learned through adversity, and what strong belief actually looks like when things aren't going according to plan. The takeaway is simple: belief isn't the absence of doubt. It's continuing to take action despite doubt. Every athlete faces moments that test their belief, but growth comes from moving through those moments rather than avoiding them. As always, it's a fun ride with some good nuggets, squirrels, and a little jingle... only on The TrainAnything Show. Please like and subscribe!

    Ep 069 - 5 Reasons Camps Accelerate Grow

    Welcome back to The TrainAnything Show! This week, Dylan and John fire up another Sauna Talk episode to explore a simple question: Why can six days at camp sometimes create more growth than six months at home? The answer isn't more miles, bigger workouts, or heroic training sessions. Instead, they break down the five growth accelerators that make training camps such powerful experiences: environment, accountability, feedback, confidence, and community. The conversation explores how stepping into the right environment can make good decisions easier, why being surrounded by driven athletes raises your standards, and how a single coaching insight can unlock months of progress. They also dive into one of the biggest misconceptions in endurance sports: confidence doesn't come before action, it comes from collecting evidence through experience. Beyond the training itself, Dylan and John discuss why so many athletes leave camp feeling different, not just fitter. From building belief through shared challenges to creating relationships that last long after the final workout, they unpack how camps accelerate growth both on and off the race course. The takeaway is simple: the best training camps don't just improve fitness, they improve the conditions that make fitness possible. As always, it's a fun ride with some good nuggets, sweat, squirrels, and a little sauna wisdom... only on The TrainAnything Show. Please like and subscribe!

    Ep 067 - Doubt: How To Deal With It

    Welcome back to Ep 068 of The TrainAnything Show! This week, we bring you another DG Pro Talks episode as Dylan takes us behind the scenes of his recent race at Ironman 70.3 Boise. From the highs and lows of the past year to the lessons learned along the way, this episode is a candid look at what it takes to navigate the realities of chasing big goals in endurance sport. Dylan walks through the journey from the end of last season into 2026, including the injury that derailed his momentum in February and the long road back that followed. The conversation dives into the physical and mental challenges of rehabilitation, rebuilding confidence, developing high-end power despite training limitations, and staying committed when progress isn't always visible. Dylan also shares race-day thoughts and decision-making, what surprised him most in Boise, where his fitness currently stands, and what's next on the road toward bigger goals later this season. Whether you're working through an injury, rebuilding after a setback, or simply curious what goes on inside the mind of a professional athlete, this episode offers a transparent look at the process, patience, and persistence required to keep moving forward.

    Ep 067 - Doubt: How To Deal With It

    Welcome back to Ep 067 of The TrainAnything Show! This week, Dylan and John tackle a topic every athlete experiences but few enjoy talking about: doubt. They explore why doubt isn't a sign that something is wrong, but often a sign that you're pursuing something meaningful. From bad workouts and race setbacks to injuries, comparisons, and big goals, they unpack where doubt comes from and why even the most successful athletes experience it. The conversation dives into the stories we tell ourselves when things don't go as planned, how doubt can distort reality, and what to do when uncertainty starts getting loud. Rather than changing the plan or seeking constant reassurance, Dylan and John discuss the importance of returning to the process, focusing on what you can control, and continuing to move forward. The takeaway is simple: confidence isn't the absence of doubt—it's continuing anyway.

    Ep 066 - Borrowed Belief: Who Helped You Believe? | Part 1

    Welcome back to Ep 066 of The TrainAnything Show! This week kicks off a brand-new three-part series built around one of the core beliefs behind TrainAnything: Belief Is Everything. In Part 1, Borrowed Belief, Dylan and John explore a simple but powerful idea—before we believe in ourselves, someone else often believes in us first. They reflect on the coaches, friends, family members, training partners, and mentors who helped make difficult goals feel possible, from first races and marathons to triathlons and Ironman finish lines. The conversation dives into the power of seeing what's possible through others, why community plays such a critical role in growth, and how belief spreads through relationships. Along the way, Dylan and John share stories from their own athletic journeys and challenge listeners to think about the people who helped shape theirs. The takeaway is simple: before belief becomes our own, it's often borrowed from someone willing to say, "I think you can do this."

    Ep 065 - Trust The Process (Before the Results Show Up) | Part 3

    Welcome back to The TrainAnything Show! This week wraps up our three-part Commit to the Process series with Part 3: Trust the Process (Before the Results Show Up). Dylan and John dive into one of the hardest parts of endurance training: staying committed when you're doing all the right things but the results haven't shown up yet. They explore why endurance sport is a delayed-reward game, how today's instant-feedback culture works against long-term progress, and why some of the biggest breakthroughs happen long before they're visible. Along the way, they share personal stories of race builds, unexpected breakthroughs, and lessons learned from trusting the work when confidence was low. They also discuss common athlete mistakes like plan hopping, chasing fitness tests, comparing timelines, and treating every workout like a report card. The takeaway is simple: the process is often working long before the results become obvious.

    Ep 063 - Boring Is the Work (Why Consistency Beats Motivation) | Part 2

    Welcome back to The TrainAnything Show! This week continues the Commit to the Process series with Episode 2: Boring Is the Work. Dylan and John dive into one of the most overlooked truths in endurance training and life—progress doesn’t come from exciting moments, it comes from consistent, repeatable action over time. They unpack why so many athletes and individuals struggle to stay committed once the initial motivation fades, and how chasing novelty, intensity, or constant change can actually stall progress. The conversation explores the “middle phase” of the process—the part where nothing feels new, results aren’t immediate, and the work starts to feel routine—and why this is exactly where most people fall off. They emphasize that the goal isn’t to stay motivated, but to stay in motion, and that true progress comes from showing up on the days that feel flat, not just the ones that feel inspired. Along the way, they share practical ways to stay consistent, protect routine, and measure success through execution rather than outcomes. The takeaway is simple: if it feels boring, you’re probably doing it right—the real work isn’t flashy, it’s repeatable.

    Ep 061 - The 5 Key Swim Sets You Need to Get Faster | Part 1

    Welcome back to The TrainAnything Show! This week kicks off a brand‑new three‑part series, Commit to the Process, with Episode 1: Commit Before You’re Ready. Dylan and John dive into a simple but powerful idea—most people don’t struggle with knowing what to do, they struggle to commit to doing it. Instead of waiting for the perfect moment, the right plan, or enough motivation, they unpack why progress actually begins when you take action before you feel ready. The conversation breaks down the common traps that hold people back—overthinking, listening to too many outside opinions, chasing the perfect plan, and fear of doing it wrong—and reframes the idea that readiness comes before starting. They emphasize that no one feels ready at the beginning, the first reps are always messy, and real clarity only comes after you begin. Along the way, they share personal experiences, including commitment moments like signing up for big races, and highlight how simple, binary actions can eliminate decision fatigue and create momentum. The takeaway is simple: commitment comes before confidence, and action is what builds belief—so don’t wait for it to feel right, start so it becomes right.
