Vibrant Potential with Dr Chris Frykman
Anxiety, The Mental Game of Endurance Sports, & How To Know if Your Racing is a Health LifeStyle of an Obsessive Behavior
Today’s Guest, Brock Armstrong, is a podcast veteran. I first learned about Brock on the first podcast I listened to, Ben Greenfield’s show. Now I listen to a number of shows, in fact I like so many different shows for different reasons that when I pile my audiobooks on top of them, I rarely have enough time in a week to listen to everything I want to. But as I said, back then Ben’s show was the first one I listened too and I enjoyed it. Brock, I later learned, was editing the shows as well but he was also the co-host. And he and Ben sorta hammed it up in a casual way but spoke about some really cool topics if you’re into fitness and recovery and such like I am. I reached out to Brock some time later and found out he’s worked with a lot of the great podcasts in the fitness and nutrition area with names like Mark Sisson, Endurance Planet, Dave Asprey (if you don’t don’t him by name, he’s the bullet proof coffee guy) and others. So brock has been on tons of podcasts as well as behind the scenes. and he’s soaked up a ton of info in the areas of fitness, nutrition, and recovery. He’s now running Skywalker fitness and helping athletes with programs ranging from triathlon to running, to strengthening.
