teamE4E Episode 183: Coaching and Health with Rachel Andras
January 01, 2021 02:07 - 33 minutes - 45.7 MBI know it has been a while and I want to thank you all for your patience while I navigated 2020. It has been one hell of a year, but even with all of the bad, there were slivers of good, one being introduced to people like the coach on today's show Rachel Andras. We sat down earlier today on Facebook Live to discuss coaching, health, wellness, and the strange journey that has led me from struggling with my weight all of these years to losing 75 pounds since April. You can also watch the liv...
teamE4E Episode 182: Gaining and Losing the COVID19 - A Discussion with Pete D'Amico
May 29, 2020 17:44 - 1 hour - 83 MBI know it's shocking, but the news of the day makes it onto Episode 182 as Pete joins John to discuss the effect of this pandemic on our mental health, or weight, our training, and our day to day work life. This is the first show we have done since the shutdown and a lot has happened. We now, many of us, work from home, relatives have been lost, the weight has been gained, and cities are on fire. As much as we want to not think about these things, a discussion on how it has affected us is ne...
teamE4E Episode 181: The Mo Jo Sho
February 10, 2020 01:23 - 1 hour - 86.6 MBWe all have things we need to overcome. For some, it might be cancer or some other illness. For others, it might be a big family and an unsupportive partner. When I talk about motivation or "mo jo", I am referring that point where that issue becomes so overwhelming it stops you from doing either what you need to do or what you want to do. John and Karen talk a little about this along with some of the ways they personally deal, and not deal, with that loss of mojo when it happens.
teamE4E Episode 180: We Are Back with Karen Clarke
January 27, 2020 01:43 - 1 hour - 101 MBWe thank you for your patience as we reimagined the show and thought through the direction over the past few months. Tonight Karen Clarke coaxed John out of his self-imposed exile to talk about his plans for the future and continued journey as both a coach and athlete in the endurance world. We even started off with a few discussions about New Zealand, America, some of the differences in how we perceive things when we return home and how the Noom program is helping John with weight loss.
teamE4E 177: Pete D'Amico | No Fear Project | Positive Suggestions | Role Identification
September 28, 2019 02:53 - 54 minutes - 65.9 MBA discussion with Pete D'Amico of Fatman Chronicles and the new "No Fear Project" about the subconscious mind and how we tend to undermine our efforts by assigning roles to ourselves. The belief in who we are, what we are capable of, what we can and cannot do, can be a strong motivator and predictor in who and what we become. If you have parents who constantly hounded you about being worthless, no good, “bound for prison”, often results in an adult who actually turns out the exact way that w...
Endurance for Everyone: Ironman at 60 - EP 1

Swim Calm Bike Strong and Run Steady

teamE4E 174: SPECIAL REPOST OF IRONMAN YEAR ONE EPISODE 20A | MARY SHOMON | MELISSA JOULWAN
March 06, 2019 18:34 - 1 hour - 41 MBIt is amazing how the same issues reappear, so after getting questions on Thyroid issues in the Facebook group I went searching for an episode that Andrew and I had done back in the Ironman: Year One day - Episode 20A to be exact - so a very long time ago. I know the intro, format, levels, etc are different, but this was always one of my favorite episodes. Thanks to Andrew for saving these things!

Yes, please Jumping Rope: Not for little kids anymore! What do "Atomic Habits" and "How to Fail at Everything and Still Win Big" have in...

The Rob and Karen Stone talk about riding bikes for a reason other than competition and planning for a ride vs a competition.

February 03, 2019 02:23 - 1 hour - 89.5 MBA lot coming at you in this show.

As usual, please join us on the Facebook page, Twitter, and Instagram (s...

January 23, 2019 01:03 - 33 minutes - 45.7 MBEpisode 169 starts out a bit philosophical with an actual bible verse (wait ... what??) but it does lead to something, a discussion about what the 80/20 rule is in business and how it applies to training, and then a short talk on using a 5x5 method with body weight and how to determine how much "weight" you are actually lifting in a push-up and air squat. Big difference between a 2-hour show and this one, but the points get across I think ;-)
teamE4E 168: IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER | ANDREW WEAVER | THE JOURNEY CONTINUES
January 15, 2019 03:35 - 1 hour - 163 MBMy old podcasting partner Andrew Weaver joins me tonight for a long show on his history with Endurance Sports, when and how it came off the rails, and his recent successes with diet, nutrition, and coming back into events slowly and with a better sense of purpose. We slid right back into how it was in the past. For people new to the show, Andrew and I started this podcast over 5 years ago as "Ironman Year One". The evolved into "BAck of Pack Endurance" and then Andrew decided to leave it t...

teamE4E 163: FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN RACE RECAP with ROB and KAREN

Sounded like it was a great experience, so let us know what you think and maybe next year we can get a bigger contingent up there representing teamE4E (or, if you're game, join John at The Endurance Society's Infinitus in June).
teamE4E 162: CHICAGO RECAP | HIATUS ANNOUNCEMENT
October 15, 2018 23:51 - 43 minutes - 60.6 MBThis episode might be a surprise to some, especially those in the Facebook group. As we mentioned in the group, the show is going on a little hiatus until December 3rd. I have been doing this show in various versions non-stop for 4 years and it's time to take a break, recharge the creative juices, and come back stronger (we have actually started brainstorming on new show ideas). But that doesn't mean that if the move strikes either Rob or me we won't just record something and put it out. Bec...

June 04, 2018 16:00 - 49 minutes - 67.6 MBAs it does to most of us at some point, Rob is having a bit of an identity crisis this year. As lives change, training changes, due to demands on time by work, life, family, so how do you change with it and still maintain the identity you have clung to for so many years? Sometimes it's just a matter of letting things go and realizing that you are not a Triathlete, or a Runner, or anything of the sort; you are an Endurance Athlete at your heart.

June 02, 2018 12:00 - 12 minutes - 16.6 MBEvery coach has a guiding set of principles and beliefs that they have developed through training, both their own and the "book learnin'" received as part of the certification process.
