The Health & Fitness Podcast, By Innerfight

Why do men get paid more than females in sport? How does the female body actually work? Will the female football World Cup be as big as the male version 20 years from now? Who better to discuss these questions with than Steph and Bos! We turn the dial back 15-20 years thinking where sport was and is now and then try and make predictions for the future as well as talk in depth about the female body, what it needs to perform better and how ladies can leverage their cycle for increased performance.

Tech wants you to scroll, the medical industry wants you sick, the food industry wants overweight people....what does the fitness industry want? To pick up the pieces? We are hooked....on tech, on medicine, on food and also on fitness. We are all addicts. Where are we headed? How can we not be hooked? What do we need to think about? What actions do we need to change? A 30 minute podcast cannot deliver all of these answers but it can make you think about it. Enjoy the show!

Why are they so dominant? What's the secret? What are they doing that no one else is? These are some of the most common questions around some of the top performers in any sport or industry around the world. If you run or like sport you have probably heard of Kenyans in running and their pure dominance. Having run since childhood I certainly had and was always in awe of what they could do. I would watch them with intent. I had read books, spoken to people, even ran an ultra in Kenya in 2019. However after a conversation with Shane Benzie in 2020 I made a decision I would go to the home of running....Iten. November 2021 Tom, Rob and I did that. In this show I try and share some key points. The reflection and learning will last a long time still and we will return. Enjoy the show!

Zion Clark was born on September 29, 1997 in Columbus, OH with a rare condition, Caudal Regression Syndrome...born with no legs, and  due to his birth mother's inability to care for him, Zion was immediately  thrust into the foster care system.  Thus, his journey to find a permanent home and a someone to call "mom" began. Over  the course of the next 16 years Zion moved numerous times and found  himself in a variety of circumstances and environments...many of them  unfavorable. There  were situations when Zion was mentally abused, physically bullied, and  underfed...but he remained optimistic (faith in God). Being  physically different from others didn't help, but Zion used a positive  mindset, gracious demeanor, and diligent study habits to make friends  and excel academically. Zion  was introduced to the sport of wrestling while in elementary school,  but initially didn't fare very well...in fact, he didn't win a match for  several years.

Binge eat, binge train, binge watch. There are many things both good and bad in life that we are "binging" on. But why? We are joined this week by Dr. Glenn Livingston who explains to us the how and why of binging and what we can and should do about it! Glenn Livingston, Ph.D. is a veteran psychologist and was the long time CEO of a multi-million dollar consulting firm which has serviced several Fortune 500 clients in the food industry.
