How a recovering perfectionist can find health and balance (and still be fit af) with Jill Coleman — Muscle Maven Radio Episode #18

Jill Coleman coaches fitness coaches on how to build their business, find their passion, and balance their own health and happiness too. Coming from a background of fitness competitions and modeling, she’s certainly not the first fitness pro who’s struggled with dysfunctional attitudes towards eating and exercise and self-acceptance, but she’s done a fantastic job of doing the hard work that it takes to get unstuck from a cycle of shame, self-blame, and overwork to a place where she can help others as well as take care of herself. In this interview, we deep dive into how we can be a contributing, authentic part of the health and fitness industry without becoming obsessive; her experiences from fitness competitions and yo-yo-dieting to finding her version of moderation; how she grew from a scarcity mindset to one based on balance; knowing the difference between ambition and obsession; and how to snap out of a rut, be it in business, life, or fitness.     Jill Coleman’s journey in health and fitness began when she got her first job at a gym at 15 (for the free membership). Jill earned a B.S. in Exercise Science from Wake Forest University and went on to earn an M.S. in Human Nutrition at the University of Bridgeport. While she learned a lot during her years of exercise science and nutrition education, fitness competitions and modeling, and having her work featured in SELF magazine, SHAPE, Women’s Health magazine, and more, she also found herself struggling with food and exercise obsession. Through a lot of hard work and introspection, Jill was able to work on making balance, moderation, and health a priority over six pack abs, and launched her personal brand at JillFit.com in 2010, which has since evolved from a fitness competition prep service to a range of comprehensive online programs and resources for women who want to break the cycle of shame, unsustainable diet, and punishing exercise to create a life they love encompassing mindset, fitness, and business.     Minute Breakdown:   7 - 23  Introduction to Jill and her work coaching and teaching other fitness coaches; her thoughts on how you can be a leader in the fitness industry without being obsessive    23 – 33 Her experiences with fitness and bodybuilding competitions, both positive and negative   33 – 47 A discussion of a key moment in her life (the discovery of her husband’s affair)  and how Jill escaped what she called a “blame culture” and worked on healing through introspection and sharing     47 – 59  A conversation about how to tell your own story: knowing how to market yourself as a coach or trainer by being aware of what you can offer and what people are looking for     59 – 1:07  How she made her way out of a creative rut by writing a full length romance novel – which she doesn’t plan on publishing!     1:07  – 1:19 Finding the balance between ambition, challenging yourself, working hard, and enjoying your life; the importance of goal setting   1:19 – 1:28  Talk about the biggest challenges of fitness coaching (spoiler alert, it’s expectation management) Getting people to just keep showing up to the process.  We are in the trust business, which takes time to earn.   1:28 How to be useful, authentic, and interesting on the internet for your business, and why popularity on social media doesn’t necessarily correlate to coaching success; you have to know how to use it effetively. Why your mindset and approach to challenge is more important than the challenge itself      Learn more about how Beekeeper’s Naturals can support immunity, energy, and health for active people – check out https://try.beekeepersnaturals.com/muscle-maven/ to see some of Ashleigh’s favorite products and use the code musclemaven for a 15 percent discount on anything you buy!   ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Show notes: http://www.shruggedcollective.com/mmr-coleman ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ► Subscribe to Shrugged Collective's Channel Here http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedSubscribe 📲 🎧 Listen to the audio version on the Apple Podcast App or Stitcher for Android Here- http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedApple http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedStitcher Shrugged Collective is a network of fitness, health and performance shows that help people achieve their physical and mental health goals.  Usually in the gym, but outside as well.

Chatting with Tommy Hackenbruck — Real Chalk #78

Tommy Hackenbruck happened to be the owner of the first CrossFit gym I ever stepped foot in. At the time, I didn’t even know what the CrossFit Games were or who Tommy really was. He was always a super humble guy who never even made it a point to tell me that he got 2nd place at the CrossFit Games. He later became the Broken Skulk Ranch Champion, an owner of multiple gym locations (which was rare at the time), and worked out alone most of the time at a place called “Gym Jones” which has always been a famous training spot that requires an invitation to walk through the door. I wasn’t invited for a few years...   Anyway, while I was out in Columbus, Ohio I happened to walk by Tommy as he was getting ready for the “Legends” competition at the Rogue Invitational. I haven’t talked to him in years and wanted to catch up and see what he’s been up to. He had a few things to say about his career and business life. Things he’d do different and things that helped him succeed. It’s always good to hear anything from someone who’s been in the game this long. I hope to enjoy it! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Show notes: http://www.shruggedcollective.com/rc-tommyh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ @Hylete- Hylete.com - RC15 for 15%   ► Subscribe to Shrugged Collective's Channel Here http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedSubscribe 📲 🎧 Listen to the audio version on the Apple Podcast App or Stitcher for Android Here- http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedApple http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedStitcher Shrugged Collective is a network of fitness, health and performance shows that help people achieve their physical and mental health goals.  Usually in the gym, but outside as well.

Stress Less, Win More. Lessons From One of The World’s Best Ultra-Endurance Runners, Courtney Dauwalter — Muscle Maven Radio Episode #17

Ultra endurance runner Courtney Dauwalter is pretty chill for a person who can run more than 200 miles without stopping. She’s run plenty of 100 mile + races, often breaking and setting records, often beating the rest of the pack (men and women) by significant margins. Take the Moab 240 race in Utah last year, where she 238 miles in under 58 hours, crushing the male second-place finisher by more than ten hours. In addition to her seemingly superhuman feats of endurance and resilience, Courtney is equally well known for her relaxed, positive, and uncomplicated attitude towards competition, pain, and training. Whether you’re an endurance racer or not, we can all learn something about approaching our own struggles, challenges, and goals with a resilient, focused, and positive mindset like Courtney. Listen as we chat about her background in sports, some of her hardest races and craziest challenges, how she trains, how she eats, and how she deals with failure, and why the path to greatness means approaching challenge and pain as “fun problem solving.”     Courtney Dauwalter is an American ultramarathon runner, who gained mainstream attention in 2016 when she won the Run Rabbit Run 100-miler in Colorado less than one minute off the course record and set the record on the Javelina Jundred 100K. In 2017, she set the record for the longest run in 24 hours, at 155.391 miles during the Riverbank One Day Classic. She also won the 2017 Run Rabbit Run during which she battled temporary blindness for the final 12 miles. In 2018, she ran 279.2 miles in what’s known as Big’s Backyard Ultra, a grueling race during which runners have to complete a 4.16667-mile loop each hour: the last person standing wins. By the third night of that race, only Dauwalter and Johan Steene remained. After going mile for mile with Steene for 67 hours, Dauwalter conceded. At that point, she and Steene had run 33 miles farther in the race than anyone had before. Also in 2018, she finished the Moab 240 race in Utah in 2 days, 9 hours, and 59 minutes, faster than any of the men or women in the pack and beating the second-place finisher by more than 10 hours. Courtney is equally as well known for her baggy running shorts, penchant for beer and candy, and positive, easygoing outlook in the face of near insurmountable challenges. Here’s a short YouTube documentary about Courtney and  article about her in the New York Times.    Minute Breakdown:   4 - 13   Introduction to Courtney and her most recent race, what her training and racing season looks like      13 – 16  Her background in high school cross country and other sports, and what fuels her competitive streak and drive to push and compete, even when it’s only against herself. What kind of strategy does she employ to keep pushing boundaries, even when she’s winning by hours?     16 –24  What does her pre-race week look like? What does her sleep look like? What time does she train, how does she train? Find out why she doesn’t listen to music on her crazy long training runs   24 – 42  A deep dive into her mindset around training and her notably relaxed attitude towards the details: why she isn’t putting a lot of thought into recovery, diet, or new technology      42 – 52 How do ultra runners eat and fuel themselves during training and during actual races?     52 – 59 How she thinks about mental resilience: how she talks about herself, how she deals with failures     59 – 1:04 We talk about some of her scarier injuries and experiences during races, including falls and suffering corneal edema (temporary blindness) during a race – which she still finished   1: 04 – What upcoming races and goals is Courtney working on? Follow Courtney on social media: Facebook and Instagram at @courtneydauwalter, and Twitter @courtdauwalter   Reach out to me on Instagram @themusclemaven to say hi and tell me what you thought of the podcast, head to ashleighvanhouten.com to sign up for my weekly health and fitness newsletter, and if you enjoyed the episode please share on social media and leave me a nice rating and review on iTunes!   ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Show notes: http://www.shruggedcollective.com/mmr-dauwalter ---------------------------------------------------------------------- @Hylete- Hylete.com - MMR15 for 15%   ► Subscribe to Shrugged Collective's Channel Here http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedSubscribe 📲 🎧 Listen to the audio version on the Apple Podcast App or Stitcher for Android Here- http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedApple http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedStitcher Shrugged Collective is a network of fitness, health and performance shows that help people achieve their physical and mental health goals.  Usually in the gym, but outside as well.
