Music, Rhythm, and Movement Development

In this episode, Mark Bell, Nsima, and guest Marshall Jones unpack a spicy claim making the rounds: “When you’re a good athlete and you’re Black, that’s your birthright.” We push past hot-takes to ask what really shapes performance—genetics, culture, environment, reps, or all of the above? Along the way we hit stereotype threat, why “raw talent” can be a backhanded compliment, how music/rhythm cultures translate to movement, and why focusing on work you can do beats obsessing over gifts you can’t control.Follow Marshall Jones: @marshalldavisjonesCHAPTERS:00:00 - Intro02:10 - Reacting to Mike Israetel05:52 - Understanding Stereotype Threat11:36 - Success: Environment vs. Genetics17:49 - The Role of Genetics in Success20:10 - Words and Mindset Impact27:40 - Essential Equipment for Success28:28 - Interview with Mike Israetel28:54 - Your Body's Potential29:18 - Analyzing Gordon Ryan’s Athleticism30:10 - Defining the Word “Athlete”32:40 - Gordon Ryan’s Jiu Jitsu System41:25 - Learning to Dance: A Process43:50 - The Biological Benefits of Music48:36 - Methylene Blue Benefits51:54 - Exploring Unfair Advantages55:43 - Genetics and Racial Factors1:00:50 - Environmental Influences on Success1:03:16 - Expanding the Gene Pool1:04:15 - Was Steve Nash Born Gifted?1:05:48 - Key Takeaways for the Audience1:11:53 - Outro🥩 HIGH QUALITY PROTEIN! 🍖 ➢ https://goodlifeproteins.com/ Code POWER to save 20% off site wide, or code POWERPROJECT to save an additional 5% off your Build a Box Subscription!🩸 Get your BLOODWORK Done! 🩸 ➢ https://marekhealth.com/PowerProject to receive 10% off our Panel, Check Up Panel or any custom panel, and use code POWERPROJECT for 10% off any lab!🧠 Methylene Blue: Better Focus, Sleep and Mood 🧠 Use Code POWER10 for 10% off!➢https://troscriptions.com?utm_source=affiliate&ut-m_medium=podcast&ut-m_campaign=MarkBel-I_podcastBest 5 Finger Barefoot Shoes! 👟 ➢ https://Peluva.com/PowerProject Code POWERPROJECT15 to save 15% off Peluva Shoes!Self Explanatory 🍆 ➢ Enlarging Pumps (This really works): https://bit.ly/powerproject1Pumps explained: https://youtu.be/qPG9JXjlhpM?si=JZN09-FakTjoJuaW🚨 The Best Red Light Therapy Devices and Blue Blocking Glasses On The Market! 😎➢https://emr-tek.com/Use code: POWERPROJECT to save 20% off your order!👟 BEST LOOKING AND FUNCTIONING BAREFOOT SHOES 🦶➢https://vivobarefoot.com/powerproject🥶 The Best Cold Plunge Money Can Buy 🥶 ➢ https://thecoldplunge.com/ Code POWERPROJECT to save $150!!➢ https://withinyoubrand.com/ Code POWERPROJECT to save 15% off supplements!➢ https://markbellslingshot.com/ Code POWERPROJECT to save 15% off all gear and apparel!Follow Mark Bell's Power Project Podcast➢ https://www.PowerProject.live➢ https://lnk.to/PowerProjectPodcast➢ Insta: https://www.instagram.com/markbellspowerproject➢ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/markbellspowerproject
