In this episode, we dig deep into how to build athleticism that lasts — not just for the season, but for a lifetime. From foot mechanics to chaos training, we unpack the fine details that separate elite performers from the rest. We also break down the mistakes that sabotage nervous system adaptability, how to train the brain to handle pressure, and what modern strength programs often miss.

You’ll hear stories, strategies, and science from the trenches — blending real athlete experiences with the latest nervous system research.
