Scott Mulvaney — Fri, 29 Jun 2018 14:00:00 +0000

Are you aging healthy? How about aging healthy in the CrossFit world?!

This episode we dig into the power of CrossFit and the positive impact on healthy aging. Janet and Mike join us from the membership community of CrossFit Adoration. Let’s give you a little more of some of the behind the scenes of who/what/why CrossFit Adoration where we hosted this LIVE podcast.

Values CrossFit Community and the Foundation of CrossFit Adoration:

HONESTY – At CrossFit Adoration we strive to keep everything out in the open and remain truthful and honest with our members, staff, and community.

INTEGRITY – There are many definitions of Integrity. At CrossFit Adoration we focus on two in particular. The first is regarded as adhering to moral and ethical principles; exhibiting sound moral character; the honesty, accuracy, and truthfulness of one’s actions. “Doing what’s right even when no one is looking”. The second is in regards to structure. A sound, unhindered perfect condition: “the integrity of a ship’s hull”. We remain strong because of our members! Integrity defines our gym both structurally and morally!

COMMUNITY – At CrossFit Adoration we are a community above and beyond anything else. Every decision we make here is for our members. We want this to be a place you can not only get a workout in but also develop lifelong friendships.

DEDICATION – At CrossFit Adoration we are dedicated to what we do. We strive for excellence at all times. This is our passion. Our coaches eat, sleep and breathe CrossFit so they can provide you with the best possible programming and coaching available.

HONOR – We love what we do! All of our coaches are here to help you become a stronger person, both physically and mentally. You are the PRIORITY.

Rules of the Box

Leave your EGO at the door.
Be early, stay late.
Leave the coaching to the coaches.
Respect each other and always be kind.
Introduce yourself to new members.
Keep the chalk in the bucket….it really doesn’t make you stronger.
The WOD is done when the last person is finished. Encourage and support your fellow members until they complete their last rep.
Don’t cheat. You are only competing against yourself.
Clean up after yourself.
HAVE FUN!

045: Strauser Project, Kettlebells, Isagenix, Epidermolysis Bullosa

Scott Mulvaney — Mon, 30 Jan 2017 21:15:00 +0000

Epidermolysis Bullosa gofundme Project Co-Hosting:

This episode was recorded live at CrossFit Adoration with repeat co-host Brian Strauser of The Strauser Project. He has gone through an exciting transformation in life and business since Brian’s last appearance on LIVETHEFUEL. Brian has also been impacting the lives of others through various charity efforts, in particular someone living with Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB). Which you will hear more about on this episode. Brian has been living a life of purpose.

On This Episode You Will Hear:

[spp-timestamp time=”03:00″] Moving in the right direction since Brian’s previous episode
[spp-timestamp time=”04:35″] Opening people’s eyes. Sometimes what you are looking at isn’t what’s actually going on. Don’t be so naive to think when you look at your loved ones everything is great because on the surface things may look great but deep down things may not be.
[spp-timestamp time=”08:02″] Keeping up with the Jones’s. Assuming the worst. Brian tries to make people’s lives better when he is around them. Do something, it’s better than looking on and doing nothing.
[spp-timestamp time=”11:46″] Are we remaining approachable so people remain comfortable to work with you on their goals. We need to be coaching and supporting each other in life. Lead by example.
[spp-timestamp time=”13:54″] Brian has become a voracious podcast consumer. The impostor syndrome. Doing your self-work to fight your impostor syndrome. Since Brian has been using isogenic, he has become the product of the product. Brian had been a personal trainer for ten years.
[spp-timestamp time=”18:07″] Anti-scales. It’s all about the inches. It’s the inflammatory weight leaving your body. Brian in the past 30 days lost 10 inches.
[spp-timestamp time=”19:00″] Bio-electrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a commonly used method for estimating body composition and in particular body fat.
[spp-timestamp time=”21:03″] Nutrient density. Having nutrient dense meals not only to support the body through the transformation but to maintain the existing muscle mass.
[spp-timestamp time=”23:01″] Supported fasting day. You are given a certain amount of snacks and supports along with the cleansing supplement, your body is naturally able to cleanse and detox but many of us are not healthy enough to do it. What Brian took just jacks it up to give you a super a deep cleansing day.
[spp-timestamp time=”23:56″] Fasting has been around for centuries in different forms. The importance of sleep, circadian rhythm, helps you rest, recover and heal.
[spp-timestamp time=”26:40″] It’s 2017, with New Year’s resolutions still a hot topic, you can’t go from couch potatoes to guns blazing because you could cause injury, cause tears in your muscle tissue all these side effects that could end up setting you back and psychologically having a negative impact on you. Build up. Take your time. Whether it’s a nutritional program or your workouts take your time, be smart with your body and it’s transformation. It is a process.
[spp-timestamp time=”29:46″] Mind of the Athlete
[spp-timestamp time=”30:30″] How Scott and Brian met
[spp-timestamp time=”32:06″] Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) is a general term used to describe a group of rare inherited skin disorders that cause the skin to become very fragile. Brian has been helping and raising money for John Hudson Dilgen, a young man from Staten Island, New York who suffers from Epidermolysis Bullosa.
[spp-timestamp time=”33:43″] Skin is the largest organ on our body. These children with Epidermolysis Bullosa are essentially an open wound. Brian had previously raised $1200 for the EBRP by competing in the Wilderness 101 Mountain bike race. Brian wanted to do something for him personally, he couldn’t buy him a video game or a bike, so he was told by his aunt, who is on the board of Epidermolysis Bullosa, what he could do personally for him. Brian made some custom oak steps for John’s service dog. He got to hand deliver this to John which was the emotional and life-changing moment for him. Then recently Brain came across a video on Facebook at 04:30 in the morning. The video was about Johns living conditions, he lived in an old Victorian style house in Staten Island New York which really was not set up for John’s condition. His parents are now looking to remodel the middle floor of their house to accommodate a special bath tub. After tagging his boss and company in a post on Facebook, Brian managed by 10:30 to get the kitchen design, build, delivery and installation absolutely free through sponsorship. The cabinetry for the bathroom free with soapstone counters.
[spp-timestamp time=”41:22″] The company that donated all of the above was Precise Graphix which were featured on the television show The Profit.
[spp-timestamp time=”44:54″] Brian is setting up some fundraisers and fitness classes with Inner Strength
[spp-timestamp time=”48:35″] Kettlebells. When your hurting doesn’t stop. Brian feels back to the way he used to be.
[spp-timestamp time=”52:45″] We all have our highs and we all have our lows. Just take the time out to reach out and let someone know how you are doing and be real about it.
[spp-timestamp time=”54:23″] Final Words

Brian has been on a roller coaster journey in such a short amount of time, his final words are that of Thankfulness and Gratitude. Take the time out, to reach out and let someone know how you are doing and be real about it. Do stuff with purpose.
