Assemble Performance Podcast

In this episode I sat down with Alyssa Ford, aa Doctor of Physical Therapy, running coach, and strength and conditioning specialist who specializes in working with runners. We discussed Alyssa's remote rehab and performance coaching business, her approach to working with runners, and the importance of individualized care and collaboration in the coach-athlete relationship. Alyssa shares insights on the misconceptions surrounding running and its impact on the body, emphasizing the research that supports the benefits of running for joint health. She also highlights the significance of addressing the mental and emotional aspects of injuries and provides strategies for navigating the challenges of injury recovery. The conversation touches on topics such as pain science, load management, and the role of communication in healthcare. Alyssa also talks about her role as a race director for a race in Montana that supports a non-profit organization called Warrior Transition Outdoors, which helps veterans and their families transition back to civilian life through outdoor experiences.

In this episode I go over what I've been up to the last 8 months, where the podcast & business are headed in the future, and give some context around why I believe you need to train for performance.
I discuss the importance of focusing on performance in training and why it is a healthier approach than solely focusing on aesthetics. I share some of my personal journey and how I shifted my mindset from bodybuilding to training for performance. I emphasize the benefits of training for a specific task and how it can lead to a more fulfilling and enjoyable fitness journey. I also highlights the importance of building a community and setting goals to create a snowball effect of wins.
