Podcast #19 – Health, Wellness, THEN Performance

One of the biggest challenges Coach Robb faces on a daily basis when working with clients around the world, is that he emphasizes the importance of health, wellness THEN performance.  He has gone on the public record both here on his own podcast as well as DMXS Radio, numerous online magazine articles and blogs that he is willing to risk being terminated because he will not push a person beyond the threshold of health while trying to improve an athlete’s strength, speed and/or endurance.

During this podcast, Coach Robb outlines what he evaluates when working with a client to ensure that the foundation of health is established prior to building a performance program.  The evaluation elements will surprise you, so grab a piece of paper and take some notes!

Listeners topics include: Sleeping aids during muti-day races; how to handle hitting the ground when you have more racing to complete; heat & humidity while living in a motorhome; anemia associated with a heavy menstrual cycle; what does an exhausted hormonal system mean?
