| 0:00.0 | This episode is sponsored by Team Builder, yet another company that's doing great things for the first responder community. |
| 0:07.0 | As a strength and conditioning coach myself who also trains tactical athletes, dissemination of wellness information is one of the biggest challenges. |
| 0:16.0 | Now, TeamBuilder is the premier strength strength conditioning software for tactical athletes. |
| 0:23.8 | And there are several features that really impress me. |
| 0:29.7 | Firstly, there is a full exercise library so you, the personal trainer, does not have to create that within your own department. |
| 0:32.1 | Secondly, you can send out programming, but also individualize, which I love. |

| 1:29.1 | listen to episode 132 with Melissa Macardo or go to team builder.com. And I'll spell that to you |
| 1:37.3 | because it's not as you think. T-E-A-M-B-U-I-L-D-R.com. |
| 1:48.4 | Welcome to the Behind and Shield podcast. As always, my name's James Gearing, and this week I have an extremely powerful conversation for you. |
