    # 24 Overtraining Syndrome: How to Recognize Signs of OTS and Prevent Athletes from Redlining

    # 24 Overtraining Syndrome: How to Recognize Signs of OTS and Prevent Athletes from Redlining. 🎧 Tune in now and learn how to train smarter, not harder! 💡 Get a free month of WHOOP with this link: https://join.whoop.com/us/en/19A088/ As a former college athlete, I learned the hard way how overtraining can derail not only your athletic performance but also your mental and physical health. This is ultimately why I wound up quitting after 2 years of this repeated cycle and it was sadly super preventable. In this episode, I share my personal experience with overtraining—the warning signs I missed, the toll it took on my body and mind, and the moment I realized what was happening. More importantly, I break down what you can do to prevent overtraining, from smarter training principles to recovery strategies and how tools like WHOOP can help you stay on top of your performance. If you’re an athlete pushing yourself to the limit, this is a must-listen. Overtraining Syndrome (OTS) is a condition that occurs when an athlete experiences prolonged physical and mental fatigue due to excessive training without adequate recovery. It is characterized by a decline in performance, persistent exhaustion, increased risk of injury and illness, disrupted sleep, hormonal imbalances, and negative psychological effects such as anxiety, depression, and loss of motivation. Unlike normal training fatigue, OTS is not resolved with short-term rest and can take weeks or even months to recover from.

    #23 Standing Up for Truth: What I Wish Everyone Knew about “Mormon” Culture

    While everyone’s talking about this new (disgusting/ embarrassing ) reality show on Hulu, I thought I’d shed some light about what it’s really like being a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints! I talk about the beliefs that we hold true Why I think the show is mocking our beliefs and why our culture has its flaws just like every other organization. What it was like growing up being a member in California versus being a member in Utah. I dive into America and the beautiful country it is and why we need to protect our God Given Rights! I bear my soul and my testimony of what I know to be true and including how important Jesus Christ is in my life. Check out the Book of Mormon here! https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-book-of-mormon/id547313550 And here more stories about it here https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/comeuntochrist/ps/book-of-mormon-lesson?cid=C15856363587G130524328005A708273172789&adlang=eng&source=google&network=g&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwo8S3BhDeARIsAFRmkONWUx95REws6wqSBqIxV4d_OXDo5HsrEMVlxx7DIKCxxqLtxy55OIAaAkpvEALw_wcB

    #18 The Challenges of Distraction and Creating Stillness in our Life

    This episode dives into a spiritual concept of creating stillness in our lives and why that is so important. Regardless of your religious beliefs I think that you can pull from these concepts and relate it to your life and your spiritual health of staying aligned with your goals and Purpose. I share a journal entry I wrote a while back when I sat down to connect with my intuition and God, and I got a very special response that I recorded, that is so applicable to what we are dealing with in our day. I talk about the root of distraction, and how we can manage our time on our phones to align with our goals, rather than distract us from them.
