Riffing on human potential & rejecting Unidimensionalilty.
Welcome back, Thinking Athletes!
In this podcast, I share my thoughs on what it means to be hybrid. From resistance training to endurance, movement and mobility, and the foundational role of nutrition and lifestyle. Basically everything that gets me out of bed in the morning.
My goal is to unravel the complexities of fitness science and present them in a way that's not only comprehensive but also easily understandable...and applicable.

Glad you are here.

How to progress in the gym for years - Part 1 (Progressive Overload)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most people don't have a real system for progression in the gym
In this episode, I break down a simple progression algorithm you can use for years of progress in the gym.
We talk about how to decide how much weight to lift, how to progress your exercises week after week, and how to avoid the guesswork that stops most people from getting stronger.
I answer questions like
"Should I add weight today?"
"How hard should I go?"
"How do I keep progressing without burning out?"
This episode will give you a clear system you can apply immediately.
In this episode we cover:
• What talk about proximity to failure how it guide decision in the gym
• How to pick the right starting weight
• The simplest progression models that work for beginners
• How to know when to add weight vs reps
• Why most people plateau in the gym
• A simple algorithm for long-term strength and muscle gains
If you're looking for a clear framework you can use for months...or even years...of training progress, this episode will give you exactly that.
