Ep 24 – latest news, don’t debate me, elder training, when to eat carbs, smith machine, should you do sets and reps, lessons from dad
Welcome to episode 24 of Coach Taylor Radio!
Sorry for the long delay in a new podcast – no excuse! Just got busy with life and put it on the backburner!!!!
This is a great episode, in my humble opinion, and there are a couple of really personal messages in here. Please listen to the first segment, Don’t Debate Me, and the last segment, Lessons from Dad. Both of these are highly personal and messages I think are important to get out there!
My dad had a hear attack last week and was rushed to the hospital. A stent was put in right away but so many other blockages were found that a triple bypass has been scheduled for 5 weeks from now. It is this situation that really inspired some of this podcast. And I want everyone to really hear those two sections!
Overview
Just a quick overview of everything health and fitness I have been chatting about over the last while!
Don’t debate me
This topic I am passionate about. Very. There is a lot of non-PR language and some other hard to hear stuff that may ruffle some feather. Oh well. They are feathers that must be ruffled.
Training the elderly
It is being done terribly. We treat the elderly like fragile eggs and I really believe that we are doing more harm than good!
When to eat carbs
One of the more hotly debated topics in fitness nutrition and something that I think is uber filled with really bad and anecdotal reasoning. I will clear some of that up!!!!!
Smith Machine
It sucks. Get off of it. Melt it down. Scrap that piece of shit. And all machines. But WHY? I try and answer that for you.
Set and reps
This is how almost ALL fitness is tracked. But is there a better way? Where did the sets and reps come from? It is something that we are changing with the way we train!
Lessons from Dad
This is important. Skinny DOES NOT equal healthy. And while I have been preaching this for a long time, this past week as REALLY demonstrated just how important this message is. I hope that this segment can really make a difference in how some people think.
As always – know that I truly appreciate you taking the time to listen to my podcast. I hope that the information I provide is able to positively influence at least a few people and help to change the lives of many!
