Afternoon Snack

This is our very first collaborative episode between Afternoon Snack and What's the Rusch, bringing Rebecca Rusch onto the show to launch our Summer Streak Challenge together. Rebecca is one of the most inspiring people on the planet. She is a true leader in sport, performance, mindset, and philanthropy. There are very few people who accomplish what Rebecca has and still strive to do more in the space - most specifically in giving back to those around her.

In this episode we explore why motivation shows up after you act instead of before it, how the right amount of stress builds growth while too much burns you out, and what happens when training data starts running your life instead of supporting it. We discuss the four types of motivation, the tools that pull you out of a demotivated spiral, and the launch of our Summer Streak Challenge, a joint habits challenge between our coaching business, Tactic Functional Fitness, and the Be Good Foundation. Every dollar raised goes toward the Be Good Foundation's girls and women mentorship program at Rebecca's Private Idaho, pairing young women with experienced mentors in cycling, bike mechanics, and action sport photography and videography so they can build real skills and find their own places in the outdoor and sports industry.

In this episode, we dive into the 5/3/1 Strength Training Program that has been the backbone of the Tactic Fitness program for almost 12 weeks. It was designed by Jim Wendler, a world class power lifter and renowned coach. But just because the 5/3/1 program was developed by an elite athlete doesn't mean it's not for you. In fact, 5/3/1 may be one of the best if not THE best training programs for people of all backgrounds. You will learn about the core philosophies behind the program, how the progression works, and why it combines so well with functional training.

If you've been doing our programming for a while and loving 5/3/1, you'll learn why in this episode. If you are new or on the fence about jumping in, we hope this convinces you to take the leap. If you are just here to learn about strength and conditioning, you will learn a lot too!

To Grit or To Quit? That is the question. Quitting is an essential skill. It takes courage and honesty in reflection to be able to see a long view of where you're going and step off of certain paths, even when it is an uncommon or even taboo decision to make. Today's episode talks about the skill of quitting, when it may be the right decision for you, and how to know the difference between being gritty and just being stubborn.

What a year it was for the most famous gravel race in the world, Unbound. Set in Emporia, Kansas in June, it's not a question of if you will ride in bad weather, it's a question of when. And after two dry years, Unbound was due for a wet one and boy was it ever. The conditions may not have been ripe for speed but they sure were ripe for lessons and opportunities to overcome challenges. Meredith rode the 200 mile distance for the second time this year. In this episode, we talk about the lead in and race day - what went well, what didn't go so well, and what you can come back from if you're just willing to try.

Great job to everyone who toed the line in Emporia, it was an epic, memorable, and challenging day!
