How to Compete in the Sport of Life w/ Special Guest Ben Charles
This episode of The UFFDA! Podcast welcomes back a special guest to the show. Ben Charles is a coach with at Unity Fitness and brings a unique perspective to training from his experience with high school and college athletes, military, and adult clients.
Introduction to the Episode - 0:46 --> The mess of an introduction that welcomes everyone to the show and gives an overview of what's to come - training for the sport of life.
Who is Ben? What is his background? - 2:10 --> Ben shares his background in the field and how he came to work with Unity Fitness.
What is the difference between sport, military and general population? - 7:53 --> With his experience in multiple areas, we wanted to dive into Ben's experience with each population and how he approaches programming differently for each group of people.
Does mindset differ between populations? - 12:00 --> Athletes, military, and general population clients often start training for three very different reasons. What is that difference outside of the weight room for people?
What does training look like when you have a population (military) that has to always be ready? - 22:01 --> Military is a unique population in that they can get called away at any moment. We wanted to dive into what that was like.
What's something we should've asked but didn't? - 31:31 --> Are you holding yourself back in your own training? Ben dives into, not one, but TWO surprisingly fresh takes and how you (as mostly general population listeners) can take your own training to the next level by paying attention to lessons from athletes and military populations.
