    Marcus Clark & Dr. Berger: Sustainable Health/Fitness Plans (and ergonomic home offices)

    Marcus Clark (@mr.clark8_stayready) is a coach, student, and SAXMAN! We had the honor of having a college friend of mine on the podcast to discuss how coaches and individuals can develop a long-term plan for health & fitness (and a little bit of home-office ergonomics since we're still in COVID times). I hope you enjoy, learn something, and more importantly, STAY READY (in the words of Marcus).

    Quarantine-Cast: Fitness, Disease-Prevention, and Critical Thinking During & After COVID-19

    We felt compelled to create an episode solely dedicated to addressing some pressing matters around the COVID-19 pandemic that is currently sweeping the globe. Dr. Berger, Juan Schroth, and myself delve into a variety of topics and ideas around staying healthy during the virus and how to discern quality knowledge from misinformation. I hope you all enjoy and find this useful! Dr. B is behind on the times and doesn't have social media yet but you can find myself at Agoraten.com and J at his Instagram profile here.

    Coaching in the Year 3000 With Andres Vargas

    This is part dos of our discussion with Andres Vargas! Andres is a functional fitness and health coach who I personally believe will be spearheading a movement in fitness coaching towards incorporating the total wellness of an athlete to complement and influence what they do in the gym. We talk about some coaching advice and suggestions from him to new coaches, his story of how he got into sport and exercise and science, and then his unique philosophy and coaching strategy. I think you'll get a lot from this one whether you're an athlete or coach, because we touch on some factors that you may not have considered that may be affecting your training! You can find Andres Vargas on all social media @TheStrengthCave, his website is thestrengthcave.com, and feel free to email him at Andres@thestrengthcave.com.
