Welcome to the BYI podcast! If you are a fan of training, improving performance and general (semi serious) coaching chit chat then you are in the right place! You know one of those amazing conversations you have that you just wish someone had recorded? Well this was one of those, and lucky for us we had the mics running. This conversation speaks to the very core of how we view coaching and training. We believe coaching excellence is guiding individuals toward the most robust version of themselves. For us its never been about the before and after photos, its always about what happens underneath the surface. Exercise selection in training is certainly important for getting the right training adaptation, but knowing the intention, knowing your why and most importantly knowing yourself is the most powerful skill you can develop. We belief that you can change your entire story through movement. This podcast we go deep into how to change yourself. We sincerely hope you enjoy this episode.

We’ve all made them, some more than others... In this episode we discuss some of the training mistakes we’ve made over the years. From too much training volume to not enough, eating a strict pancake only diet, and doing 1000 wall-balls. This conversation is entertaining and explores the way we can use training mistakes to make better decisions in our training moving forward. “If you’re not making them you’re probably not trying hard enough.”  We hope you enjoy this humorous and insightful riff. —— If you have any feedback or would like to share your thoughts about anything in this episode, you can slide into our DM’s at @instincthealthandperformance @lochiesimpson @davidcrane13 You can find out more about hiring a coach and our programming over at https://instinct-coaching.com/
