  • Death to Beast Mode: Why You’re Not Getting Faster or Stronger
    2025/07/25

    Send us a text

    You’ve been told to hustle harder. To grind every day. To live in beast mode. But what if that mindset is actually killing your progress?


    In this episode, James breaks down the myth of “no days off” and exposes why maximum effort all the time doesn’t lead to maximum results. You’ll learn the truth about progressive overload, the 10% rule of progression, and why periodization and consistency are the real secrets to lasting strength.


    Whether you’re a HYROX athlete, an OCR warrior, a distance runner, or just someone trying to level up in life—this episode will challenge your thinking and help you train smarter, not harder.


    The goal isn’t just to get strong—it’s to stay strong.

    Because when you change your mind, you change your life.

  • The Problem with Easy Runs (It’s Not What You Think)
    2025/07/18

    Send us a text

    Is the 80/20 method just for advanced runners logging 50+ miles a week? In this episode, we push back on that popular belief and make the case that runners of all levels—from first 5Ks to marathoners—can benefit from 80/20 training. We’ll explain what the method is, why it works, and how it builds aerobic strength, discipline, and long-term durability.

    We’ll also tackle the real question:

    Are your easy runs actually easy—or just less hard?

    If you’re tired of running on empty, getting injured, or stalling out in your progress, this episode is for you.


    ✅ Learn how to structure 80/20 into your week

    ✅ Spot the signs your “easy” runs are still too hard

    ✅ Hear why slowing down might be the smartest move you
