OCR Underground Show

Episode 60 Show Notes

Well this episode is just loaded with info so let’s get right down to it. Are you ready for an Ultra Beast? If so I have the plan for you. I talk about the 4 month training plan that I created to help clients take on the Ultra Beast and earn that belt buckle. Click here to learn more.

In the Inside Mike’s Mind Segment I talk about altitude training. Yes I know we have discussed this before, but with races like Big Bear coming up I still see tons of questions come up about racing at altitude. In this episode I go in detail on the 3 main things you need to be concerned with.

I have on special return guest CJ Wagner with Gym Jones and Misfit Strength on to give a race recap on the first Honors Series Spartan Race in San Antonio.

In my research review I share a simple trick that will help you jump high and further based on quite a few research studies.

And finally I do a deep dive into core training. Specifically what the core is, the 3 levels of your core, how you can train each one, and how it can effect your movement and performance. Don’t worry we aren’t just going to be talking about planks in this one.

All this plus much more.
