Ep. 246: Rahmat, Clarking, & Philosophical Weightlifting | Max Aita & Declan Smithies, PhD Philosophical Weightlifting Podcast

    • Sports

Have you ever wondered what bats, zombies, and epistemology have to do with weightlifting? If so, that's odd... But if you haven't, let's change that. 

In this episode of the podcast, Max and I sit down with Declan Smithies, who has a PhD in philosophy, to discuss the bridge between the mind and weightlifting. We discuss the blow up with Rahmat in Thailand, skill acquisition, a theory behind choking in competition, and more.

Enjoy.
