Hometown FC Podcast EP #18- Chong Xei (Secret of Athleticism)

Chong Xei, known online as @SecretofAthleticism, is one of the most forward-thinking voices in human performance today. His approach challenges mainstream strength and conditioning by shifting the focus away from muscles — and toward the body’s true performance system: the fascia.

In this episode, Chong breaks down how training the fascia can unlock natural speed, power, elasticity, and flow — the qualities that define elite athleticism. He explains why most traditional programs fail to produce truly fluid, explosive movers, and how understanding the body’s connective network changes everything about how we train.

We go deep into biomechanics, rhythm, posture, and the importance of rewiring movement from the ground up. Whether you’re a coach, player, or athlete looking to move differently, this conversation will reshape how you think about performance forever.

From local streets to global stages, this episode explores the real secret of athleticism: it’s not just strength — it’s connection.
