The Revive Stronger Podcast

I first came across Leigh Peele many years ago on the fit cast, she was one of the co-hosts to what is still one of the biggest fitness podcasts out there. I loved her no BS approach and could tell she was incredibly intelligent. Since I purchased several of her books, including Starve Mode, which we discuss in depth. Leigh is certified through the national academy of sports medicine and delves through research daily. This time, Leigh is talking about how to be a better coach, ie. empathy, empowerment, tracking, etc. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:42 Leigh talks about her new book 20:36 Empowerment of people and dropping the calculators 28:44 Understanding psychological aspects to be a better coach 30:20 When people aren't losing weight in a deficit 40:19 Tracking variables 48:22 Impacts of weight fluctuations 51:06 Sodium and its impact on scale weight 54:24 Peoples trust and relate 56:59 Misconception of "They don't like they lift thus they don't know what they're talking about" 01:02:52 Not dealing with robots Leigh's Website: http://www.leighpeele.com/ Leigh's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leighpeele/ Leigh's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuG-AvCSJDHAOcNB-Fy85wg Leigh's Books: http://www.leighpeele.com/books-2 Thanks, please comment, like and subscribe!

Greg is back for another episode! This time we're talking all about how to improve your sleep. Greg is my go-to guy for all things sleep, for good reason. Greg helps a range of individuals feel and perform better, from elite athletes to CEOs to people who have mood disorders. Since he did his PhD on the topics of sleep, nutrition, and metabolism, Greg spends much of his time helping individuals sleep better, but his interests are much wider than this subject alone. Highlights of Greg's career so far include coaching a sprinter to four gold medals in his category at the European Championships; having his research featured in dozens of international news outlets, including the BBC, Reuters, and The Washington Post; working with the US Naval Special Warfare Command, and helping to prepare two men to break the Atlantic rowing World Record.
