Season Review - Podcast Season 3
Season 3 is complete. In this episode, Dr Phil Price and Matt Cheney (Kult Media founder and producer) reflect on the making of the podcast, their favourite bits from season 3, and what listeners can expect to come from season 4.
In this episode, we discuss:
1:20 - The reflection of The progress Theory Season 3
3:48 - What I’ve learned about podcasting
7:30 - How to interview guests
9:50 - Biggest podcasting mistake
11:08 - How I structure a podcast
14:00 - A reflection of some key episodes
14:00 - Ben Lonergan - (Episode 1). When coaches discuss what is needed in a high-performance environment, especially from a coach, and then you speak to the players and they give a different account to what the coach says i.e the coach perceives him/herself as great at developing relationships but in reality, this may not be achieved.
19:25 - Dr Bernie Dancy - (Episode 2). High achievers and their relationship with stress. It’s often ok until it really isn’t ok. It’s also something I feel we’ll never stop trying to figure
25:24 - Dr Luke Hughes - (Episode 8). BFR training can create the same adaptations without the high levels of damage/fatigue. This means people (for performance, healthy individuals) could increase the frequency of training, or reduce the training they’re doing so they’re not fatigued for their sport
31:55 - Steve Griffiths - (Episode 9). Beliefs -> thoughts -> emotions. Constantly re-centre yourself and reflect as the way you perceive your beliefs might be holding you back. Beliefs are not facts, they are your perception of what you believe to be true
36:26 - Adam Mattiussi - (Episode 10). Hearing how much elite ballet dancers train. Do people appreciate how taxing ballet is? Training/performing 6-8 hours per day, all of which consist of a high number of jumps, so how essential physical support is to help reduce the potential risk of injury
40:55 - What to expect in Season 4

Mentioned in this episode:
The Science of Hybrid Training
It was originally thought that you could not effectively train for both strength and endurance at the same time because they required different adaptations which were not compatible with each other. It was claimed that ‘an interference effect’, blunted the adaptations for strength if you simultaneously trained for endurance. However, recent developments in sports which require both strength and endurance have really challenged this idea, with hybrid athletes producing impressive performances in both strength and endurance sports together. This had led scientists, coaches, and athletes to rethink what is humanly possible and suggests the interference effect is not as influential as originally thought. But what is a hybrid athlete? What is the ‘interference effect’? And how can we maximize our training to improve at the same time our strength and endurance performance? In this book, Dr Phil Price provides insight into the misconceptions surrounding strength and endurance training by distilling the past 50 years of research and drawing on the conversations he had with great scientists, coaches, and athletes on The Progress Theory podcast. This book is essential reading for hybrid athletes and coaches who are looking to understand the key training variables and their effect on the simultaneous development of strength and endurance performance.
