S1 Ep 71STRONG-When You're on the Platform All Alone | IMPACT Q&A Ep. 71

Have you ever gone so deep that you had to put every ounce of effort into overcoming a gut-wrenching challenge, massive adversity, doubt, or even fear? For me, the answer is yes. In today's episode, I share my experience on NBC STRONG (now airing on Netflix) and how that proved to be a very deep and personally transformative experience for me. Some of the stories I have not shared publicly…until today! In today's episode, I share 5 deep lessons, stories, and wisdom discovered while in the midst of battling for not only a half-million dollars on STRONG but what I did to garner the strength when I didn't think I had much left. This includes what I did to overcome nearly passing out of pure fatigue and exhaustion during the Finals, how prayer impacted me during the tough times and what I did on the "Elimination Tower" platform every time I competed to help me find strength that I didn't necessarily know I had.

S1 Ep 62Restoring a Championship Culture at a Former National Powerhouse | Ep. 62 with Miami Hurricanes Strength Coach Dave Feeley

Back in the day, the University of Miami Hurricanes were a dynasty and dominated college football for many years. But the last decade has brought many dark days. A year ago, they hired Manny Diaz to run the once-storied program and be the head coach. However, the man behind Manny Diaz that's turning these young men into national championship-caliber players is a strength coach named Dave Feeley. Interestingly enough, Dave Feeley and I have a lot in common. We are both from Brick, NJ. We both played football for Coach Wolf. We both are in strength & conditioning. And we both LOVE turning people into champions. As someone who has mentored Dave now since his high school days, it's incredible to see the IMPACT Coach Feeley is having on the university, the football program, and these athletes. Let's go down to Coral Gables, FL, now after Coach Feeley just got done training his athletes. Buckle-up your boot-straps and get ready to get better. You're going to get an inside look at what commitment, effort, drive, and sacrifice is needed to not only turn-around a program, but to turn it back into national prominence again. Enjoy the episode and I look forward to hearing your feedback.

We recently had my Mastermind 13th Annual Retreat with 100+ of the most passionate, purpose-driven trainers on the planet in Coronado, CA. The overwhelming response was that it was one of our best retreats yet. And BOTH guest speakers knocked it out of the park. Today's episode is a montage of some of the best sound-bytes/lessons from the Retreat that will bring great value to your life. Spartan founder Joe De Sena shared his story of how the now-famous Spartan runs came into existence, including how his upbringing in New York played a big part in his life story. In today's episode, Joe shares 3 lessons a mob boss taught him that he still applies today in his personal & professional life. Additionally, you're going to hear from Damon West (Episode 56) who also spoke at the Retreat. Damon talks about how to transform the culture in prison, how to like what you see in the mirror, and the moment it all changed for him in prison. Damon will once again captivate your attention as he shares in-depth what it's like inside the prison walls. The theme to the Retreat stemmed from the movie Shawshank Redemption and "Finding your Zihuatanejo." Let's go out to the Retreat now and listen in to 22-minutes of some of the top sound-bytes that I know are going to motivate your mind and inspire your soul.

S1 Ep 52The Road to "The Show"--3 Pro Baseball Players Journey to MLB | Ep. 52

Spring Training is about to begin and the baseball season is right around the corner. The last 15-weeks, I've been in the weight-room grinding and preparing 8 current MLB and minor-league players for their upcoming 2020 season. Baseball is a sport built on endurance, mindset...and failure. Yes, failure. Pro baseball is a long season that requires mental toughness, incredible endurance, massive consistency, good health, and keeping your mind right. In this episode, pro baseball players Stephen Gonsalves (3rd round), Brady Aiken (1st round/1st overall pick), and Daniel Camarena (20th round) share their journey, the mindset needed to succeed in baseball, tips for young athletes today, what they do daily to keep their minds right, and what drives them to be in the "Bigs." Listen to this episode and you'll have a seat in the dugout with these 3 young men on the reality of what the road to "the Show" really looks like. I believe you will glean great motivation, wisdom, and insight to how some extremely high-performers think, prepare, and ultimately perform, regardless if you're in the "bigs" or still in the "minors" dreaming to get to the next level. Special shout-out to Stephen Gonsalves, Brady Aiken, & Daniel Camarena for being guests on today's IMPACT Show. You can follow them on IG at @stephen_gonsalves1; @brady_aiken; & stop by FQ10 to meet Daniel.

I'm super-pumped today to share with you one of my great friends and most-respected strength & conditioning coaches in the world, Coach Bennie Wylie. If you recognize his name, we worked and competed together on NBC STRONG (now streaming on Netflix). Nowadays, Bennie is churning out great athletes as the Head Football Strength, Speed, and Conditioning Coach at the University of Oklahoma. I believe the best of the best coaches have the ability to not only teach you what to do, but they have the ability to motivate & inspire you to do it also. Bennie is one of those coaches that can do ALL of that...and then some. He simply makes people BETTER. In today's episode, we talk topics such as: Most important habits in and out of the weight room. Bennie's morning and evening routine. Power of a winning mindset. Adversity, set-back, and injury and how it can make you even better. The importance of relationship building. Bennie's favorite exercises to get stronger and faster. Bennie's ONE piece of advice on nutrition. The one thing that will help all athletes get better. And of course...we had to talk a bit about our experience on STRONG. Listen in to this episode as I know it will get you better and then please share it on your social media so that your team, family, friends, and co-workers can be inspired also.

S1 Ep 475 Ways to Lower Stress & Anxiety | IMPACT Q&A Ep. 47

For today's episode, I am answering 2 great questions that I believe are going to help you be better. Both questions deal with health, fitness, and "getting your mind right." The first question comes from a fellow MindRight Maniac who is dealing with some added anxiety and pressure after accepting a big job promotion in his career. I offer him 5 specific strategies, techniques, and tools to handle his additional stress. The second question comes from Fitness Quest 10 standout member and a soon-to-be 70-year old fire-breathing dragon, Bernie Rhinerson. Bernie asks what else you can do as you age to stay healthy, strong, and fit. Man, I love that tenacious spirit and attitude to keep getting better. Wait until you hear what I have to say on this one! The bottom line is this...everything I talk about on this episode is applicable for anybody, at any age, and I know will get you better. If you have the desire to be stronger, healthier, fitter, and want to truly "GET YOUR MIND RIGHT," be sure to listen to this episode.

Who's ready to amp-up their energy, focus, and nutrition with this episode? When it comes to nutrition, there is so much conflicting information out there.

I also share my "weird" relationship with coffee in this episode and Robert weighs-in with his expert opinion. Robert also shares his "4R" program, talks optimizing sleep, and the one thing everyone must do to improve their nutrition.

S1 Ep 33Happy Thanksgiving--Eating Pie & Pain | Ep. 33

Happy Thanksgiving!! Thanksgiving is a heightened time of year to acknowledge our many blessings. And gratitude doesn't come only during times of sunshine and rainbows. Even the most adversity-filled times can leave us with gratitude overflowing from the lessons learned, the precious time spent that we no longer take for granted, and our new perspective on life (that couldn't have been learned any other way). In this episode, you'll hear from 3 Fitness Quest 10 teammates who have all been with me for 12+ years (Janet Bertrand, Jeff King, and Julie Wilcox). In the last year specifically, they have all faced tremendous adversity that tested them to their core. If you've also faced adversity this year, or ever in your life, you'll hear from these 3 FQ10 standouts that you are not alone in your fight… and that there is beauty and gratitude to be gained through the fight! Tune in to find out how we can turn great pain into abundant gratitude this Thanksgiving season! Have questions or comments, DM me on IG at @ToddDurkin.

I hope you guys have all had your morning workout, coffee, or energy drink because we are going deep today with my man Jeff Bristol, General Manager of Fitness Quest 10. If you are outside of the Fitness Quest 10 community you may not know Jeff, but he has one heckuva story. He has been with me for 8-years and epitomizes what it means to live a life worth telling a story about. Although he was a star athlete growing up, he battled drug addiction for many years and it's a miracle he's still alive. He's been sober 7-years now and has grown from front-desk receptionist to trainer, to Assistant GM, to now running the show at Fitness Quest 10. You do NOT want to miss the wisdom & insight Jeff has to share in this episode. If you have kids, this is MANDATORY listening for them. If you know someone with an addiction, this is a MUST-LISTEN for them. If you just want to be massively inspired, then LISTEN to this episode. And when done, please SHARE it with your community as it helps spread the gospel of positivity, energy, and IMPACT!
