    The Art and Science of Change: Chris Gaurin on Modern Performance Therapy

    Send us a text This week, I sit down with Chris Gaurin.  Chris is a San Diego–based performance therapist whose unique journey blends athletic performance, rehabilitation, education, and artistic storytelling. Growing up in a deeply creative family of musicians and writers, Chris sees movement as a universal language—an expression of human potential. After developing an early passion for training during his high-school football years, Chris spent over a decade navigating the fitness and performance world. His path included mentorship from industry leaders, immersion in corporate wellness environments, and hands-on experience collaborating with speed and performance specialists. As a Director of Education, Chris has taught and mentored practitioners at multiple levels, and has spoken for organizations including Google, where he makes complex performance principles accessible and actionable. His evolution from fitness coach to integrative therapist led him into the clinical setting as a San Diego referral for the Postural Restoration Institute. Today, Chris works to blend manual therapy, neuromechanics, and athlete-driven change into a non-siloed model of performance care—grounded in curiosity, informed by neuroscience, and shaped by his creative approach to learning and teaching.

    The Physiology of Excellence - Trevor Cottrell on Power, Coaching, and Longevity

    Send us a text This week on the Leave Your Mark podcast, I sit down with someone whose influence on our industry is truly profound — Dr. Trevor Cottrell. Recently retired and now serving as a Professor of Instruction in Physiology at Texas State University, Trevor brings more than three decades of wisdom, research, and applied practice to this conversation. For 21 years, he helped shape the future of Kinesiology, Athletic Therapy, and Osteopathy as a Professor and Program Coordinator at Sheridan College. His research spans the entire spectrum of human physiology — from cellular biochemistry to applied human performance — with a unique specialization in how warm-up strategies can directly manipulate and elevate power output. Beyond academia, Trevor spent over 30 years coaching in professional, Olympic, and collegiate environments and was a co-founder of the Canadian Strength and Conditioning Association. He built and ran a successful private performance facility, coached thousands of athletes, and became a sought-after expert in power and speed development, especially in contact sports. Today, he continues to give back by mentoring coaches at every stage of their careers and leading the Texas State University Olympic Weightlifting Club. He’s also a devoted husband of 30 years and father of two grown children — someone who has lived a life of service, curiosity, and contribution. This episode is a deep dive into longevity, leadership, high performance, and the evolution of our field.  If you’re a coach, therapist, educator, or simply someone who cares about human potential, you won’t want to miss this one.  If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston.

    Leadership, Longevity, and Leaving a Legacy with Zdeno Chara

    Send us a text In this episode of Leave Your Mark, I’m honoured to welcome one of the most iconic defenders in NHL history — Zdeno Chara. Zdeno, born in Slovakia, played 24 seasons in the National Hockey League with the New York Islanders, Ottawa Senators, Boston Bruins, and Washington Capitals. Standing at 6'9", “Big Zee” is the tallest player ever to compete in the league — but his impact stretched far beyond physical stature. As Captain of the Boston Bruins for 14 seasons, Zdeno led with humility, discipline, and purpose. He won the Norris Trophy in 2009, appeared in three Stanley Cup Finals, and raised the Cup in 2011 — becoming one of only five European-born captains to ever do so. Over 1,600 NHL games, he built a reputation for professionalism, integrity, and a relentless work ethic. Internationally, he represented Slovakia with pride, earning two silver medals at the World Championships. In 2022, he retired as a Boston Bruin and will have his number, 33, raised to the rafters in January 2026. Most recently, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. Beyond the accolades, Zdeno is a devoted husband to Tatiana and a father to three young children — and in this conversation, he opens up about leadership, resilience, growth, family, and what it means to evolve beyond the game. This is a special one. Enjoy.

    Send us a text For Episode 450, I had the privilege of sitting down with an exceptional group of performance practitioners gathered for the ALTIS Masters Residency. ALTIS has built a Master’s program that blends world-class education with real, applied mentorship from some of the best minds in human performance—and this week was no exception. In the room were Performance Therapy Practitioners Danny Foley and Chris Gaurin, sharing their integrated practice approaches; lead educator Rich Clarke, whose work in change-of-direction research is second to none; Performance Coach Nick Ward; and several other members of the ALTIS team who were onsite to upskill the Master’s cohort. I was honoured to be invited in as a mentor for this residency, and it’s been a genuine pleasure to contribute to such a high-level learning environment. In this episode, the five of us dive deep into human performance—training, therapy, movement, coaching, and the philosophies that drive great practitioners. It’s a dynamic conversation with a ton of insight. I think you’ll really enjoy this one.

    Resilience, Relationships and the Human Spirit with Yosi Knecht

    Send us a text EP 449 | Yosi Knecht – Resilience, Relationships, and the Human Spirit This week’s guest is Yosi Knecht — a man defined not just by what he does, but by who he is. A husband, father, son, and friend, Yosi turned a simple love of working out into a lifelong career in the human performance industry. For more than 20 years, he’s been a leader in performance equipment and sales, known for his integrity, energy, and ability to build authentic relationships that last. But Yosi’s story goes far beyond business. In 2010, his 5-year-old daughter was diagnosed with leukemia — an experience that would test every belief he held and reshape his understanding of strength, resilience, and what truly matters. This is a powerful conversation about family, perspective, and the human capacity to endure and grow. You’ll come away with a deeper appreciation for what it means to lead, to love, and to live with purpose.
