Barbell Shrugged

Jeremy Thiel has been successfully running his box, CrossFit Central for 13 years! As a box owner, he kept focus on challenging himself and those around him to consistent excellence. Blessed with the heart of an athlete, mind of a leader, and an entrepreneurial spirit, Jeremy is not only effective in his approach to business, but also extremely gifted in motivating people to achieve their own goals. His intense drive and dedication to succeed in the life has laid the foundation for his innovative approach to leadership. In this episode, Jeremy shares his story about getting into CrossFit early in 2005, and how he established himself early by attending the L1 seminar every 6 weeks. He also talks about his career as a competitor, and when his CNS hit a point that removed him from competition, and led him to take over a year off from training, until he found the Wim Hof Method. Jeremy soon underwent a mindset shift that turned his gym into an explosive business. He explains that his awesome team of coaches is formed not through training, but on instilling in them ideas of mental growth and responsibility. He also talks about his strategies to continue his own learning in how the human body works, and much more.

Taylor is currently training at Crossfit Jaakarhu under Michael Winchester. She is a passionate athlete and coach with high expectations for her athletes. She grew up struggling with wanting to be really skinny. She was completely obsessed, and even went through a bad drug problem. After being in a rough spot, she decided one night to change her life around, ditched her dream to be skinny, and decided to show herself how strong she can really be. Since 2007, she have been training, coaching, and competing in the fitness industry. She has been hands on training for 10 years, and takes a balanced approach to fitness combining intense and varied workouts with nutritional and dietary support. Taylor draws inspiration from many workout styles, including CrossFit, bootcamp, plyo, yoga, gymnastics, and fighting. In this episode, Taylor talks about her journey in the fitness world, transitioning from bodybuilding to CrossFit, and her experience competing on a team at regionals and the games.

Kambo is an extraction from an Amazonian frog, which some people think is poison, but it's a collection of peptides, which humans use for cleansing the body and spirit for thousands of years. The episode is broken down into three back-to-back separate interviews. The first one is with Simon Scott, the kambo medicine practitioner and provider, and two more interviews with the participants in the ceremony, including previous guest, Mark England.
