You ve never seen a person of tremendous influence who didn t have some sense of control over their energy.
Ever wondered how to maintain peak physical and mental health amidst life's challenges? In this compelling episode of the Alpha Quorum Podcast, host Derik Johnson chats with two remarkable health professionals, Gavin Hillman and Tanner Smith. Gavin, a Doctor of Physical Therapy, and Tanner, an emergency room Physician’s Assistant, bring decades of experience to the table as they share their insights on running, making smart health choices, and overcoming life's hurdles.
Gavin emphasizes the importance of structured physical activity, having dedicated over 25 years to his own fitness through running events, hiking, biking, and resistance training. Tanner shares gripping stories from his career, including his heroic actions during the Route 91 mass shooting in Las Vegas and a dramatic life-saving moment during the Boston Marathon. Despite these intense experiences, he still finds time to promote fitness by coaching aspiring runners and leading group runs.
Together, they discuss common mistakes men make with their health, the balance between nutrition and indulgence, and the critical role of quality sleep for recovery. They also delve into stress management and mental health, offering practical tips for maintaining a balanced lifestyle. As Tanner wisely notes, 'If you don't give that to your body, then you can't recover and you can't be performing or doing things at that level'.
