    Ep 43 - Michaela Breeze: It's Not a F***ing Pull

    British Olympic weightlifter and coach Michaela Breeze joins us to talk loose arms, mindset, and why the cues you grew up with might be holding you back. Michaela shares the story of being ranked number one in Britain at 18, stuck at 75/92 for 18 months, and the coach who changed everything by telling her to switch her arms off and trust the legs. What happened on the day of his funeral is one of the most powerful moments we've recorded. We get into: Why "finish your pull" is the wrong cueCoaching the person, not the sportGoal setting that doesn't break youTraining vs testingPEDs and the Enhanced GamesCoaching women through every life stageWhy gymnastics is the best foundation sportFind Michaela: Book: Beyond The Barbell: Train Your Mind To Lift With No Limits — https://www.amazon.com/Beyond-Barbell-Train-Your-Limits/dp/1919361502Website: powerposition.co.ukInstagram: @michaelabreezeEmail: contact@powerposition.co.uk

    Ep 39 - From Olympian to Performance Psychologist with Caroline Anderson

    With Alice away this week, Chris is joined by Performance Psychologist Caroline Anderson, who balanced studying psychology while competing in taekwondo at an Olympic level. Funny enough, she didn’t see those two worlds colliding until much later in her career. The chat dives into old school vs new school psychology, the idea of wellbeing before performance, and why waiting until five weeks out isn’t the best time to start working on your mindset. They also explore how you can build performance skills in everyday settings, even outside of sport. Chris probably talked too much, but it’s a good one.

We chat about what hardiness actually looks like in everyday life, the rise in ADHD diagnoses, and how overbearing parents might be messing with kids’ ability to handle challenge.
