Men's gymnastics on tap today, and I'm going to be joined by one of the members of the Big Ten Championship men's gymnastics team, and that is Landon Blix.

He'll be up next on Conquering Heroes.

Welcome to your one-stop podcast for all things, Michigan Athletics.

Updates on every team on campus, and interviews with players and coaches are all on the way.

This is Conquering Heroes.

Here's your host, John Chanson.

Well, as promised, I'm now joined by one of the members of the Big Ten championship team.

He has two rings that he can now sport.

The team itself has four in a row, a Big Ten coach of the year.

But Landon Blixt has joined me today on Cochering Heroes.

Landon, thanks for joining me, and congratulations on the Big Ten Championship.

I appreciate that.

Thank you for having me.

I'm very excited today.

Has that always been a part of your preparation leading up to a meet or a competition?
