081: Murph...Swim WOD and the Strongtown Summer

And we’re back - with the summer coming up we have a bunch of gym events on deck. In this episode, Mikey and I sit down to catch up on what’s currently planned as well as chat about a couple of events that haven’t been set yet that we’re looking to try and do. We squeezed in the recording in between classes so it’s a bit of a shorter episode for us. I hope you all enjoy.

080: Flander's Field & Forest 5k with Heidi Ball + Heather Dever

And we’re back - this week’s episode is a sit-down conversation with Heidi Ball + Heather Dever. Heidi and Heather both volunteer their time to help the Flander’s Nature Center. They are involved in the organizing and planning the Flander’s Field + Forest 5k which is happening Friday, June 3rd. This is a race that we have participated in and sponsored every year since its inception in 2015 and we’re looking forward to another successful year. The race is not your average 5k and it’s one of two fundraisers that Flander’s puts on each year. All of the proceeds will benefit the Flanders Nature center & Land Trust. It’s a family-friendly event and after the race, there’s live music, food trucks, and it’s just a great time all around. I need to thank Heidi and Heather for being willing to sit down and talk about things and hope you all enjoy. Before we get into the show I just wanted to highlight the event sponsors that help make this race happen. Starting with the Ultra-Marathon level sponsors we have Ion Bank, and Showcase Realty, Inc. Moving to the Marathon level we have Michael Friedman Orthodontics. Next up at the Half Marathon level, we have my personal favorite - Strongtown Fitness, as well as Aquarion Water Company, the Law Offices of Dana D’Angelo LLC, Homes by Heather, Moore O’Brien & Fonti Law Firm, Rich & John’s Complete Chimney Service, and Woodbury Fitness on Main. Moving to the 10k level we have Connecticut Home Navigator, Gager, Bower & Scalzo LLP, Kenneth Lynch & Sons Inc., Manzi Insurance & Real Estate, Senich Law Firm LLC, Stone Veterinary Hospital, Dr. Gary Westerman, and Woodbury Brewing Company. Finally at the 5k level we have Ken’s Hardware Inc., the Savings Bank of Danbury, and the Southbury Printing Centre. Thank you all. https://flandersnaturecenter.org/5k/

079: Dr. Courtland - Scientist, Teacher, Coach, Martial Artist, Gamer

And we’re back - we’ve had a few episodes that were recorded towards the end of last year and this week’s episode is one that was originally recorded around the new year’s Holiday. This episode is a sit-down conversation with Dr. Hayden-William Courtland. We have had the pleasure of knowing Hayden since sometime around 2015. He’s from New York City and has family in the Southbury area so he’s been a regular visitor throughout the years. He has a plethora of coaching certifications and academic credentials which I do my best to list off while trying to introduce him on the show and feel like I still fell short. He is a certified Starting Strength Coach, has achieved his CrossFit L-3 certification and he has recently stepped into the world of gym ownership and is the new owner of Solace New York, also known as CrossFit Solace. I have to thank him for taking the time to talk with me and hope you all enjoy. @dr.courtland @scienceforfitness @solacenewyork

078: Talking with Kelly - Symmetry Nutrition, Look Good + Feel Good Challenge

And we’re back - this week’s episode is a sit-down conversation with our Coach Kelly who recently completed her Precision Nutrition certification. Kelly is my sister-in-law and Mikey’s wife so it’s safe to say she has been a part of the Strongtown community since the beginning - if you’re interested in hearing more about what brought her and Mikey together they were originally featured on Episode 28 back in April of 2020. She is an incredibly knowledgeable Coach and I have always admired her dedication and determination…you can follow her nutrition coaching on Instagram @symmetrynutrition. In this episode, we talk about her experience getting certified and the upcoming “Look Good + Feel Good Challenge” that will be kicking off this month. I’m very grateful that Kelly has taken the reins and decided to offer this to the gym and am excited to see how it works for people. The challenge officially begins Saturday, April 16th and in order to set the teams and have everyone complete the initial intake form the deadline to register is Saturday, April 9th. If you’re interested in the challenge you can register through the member’s app under “pre-orders” or you can let Mikey or myself know when you see us in the gym. I have to thank her for taking the time to sit down and talk with me and I hope you all enjoy. https://www.instagram.com/symmetrynutrition/

077: DNR Donnie - Part 1

We’re back and working through the archive of episodes that were previously recorded and never published. I believe this show was actually recorded sometime between Halloween and Thanksgiving since there are a few references to the haunted hayride. In this show, Mikey and I get a chance to sit down with Donnie of DNR Laboratories aka DNR Labs. Donnie has been a member of Strongtown since the beginning. He is genuinely one of the most interesting people I have had the pleasure of meeting and his breadth of knowledge never fails to impress me. Anyone who knows Donnie knows that he’s always on the go, he’s always willing to help and he also seems to know just about everyone. He has been the MC at our Battle for the Bell competition multiple times and he’s genuinely the reason our gym sounds as good as it does. We were a little tight on time during the recording so the conversation focuses on his personal background and what brought him to start DNR Labs. We’ll be getting him back on here in the future to discuss some of his hobbies which include flying planes, sky-diving, volunteer fire fighting, and creating a stand-alone radio network. I have to thank him for giving up his time to talk with us and if anyone is looking to follow him there are links to his company's info in the show notes below and you can find him on instagram @donnie_dimmer.

076: Carol Cho

And we are back! I believe it has been just about 5 months since our last episode and I’m sorry it has taken so long to get back on the wagon. I’m embarrassed to say this episode was recorded right before Thanksgiving and at the time I told Carol it would be out in a few weeks. Carol - we miss you, Troy, and Mischka...I hope all is well and thank you for your patience, generosity and friendship. Thank you again for being part of Strongtown and if anyone is looking to follow Carol on her adventures you can find her on Instagram @chomama13. I hope all enjoy the show.
