Host Brad Kearns welcomes Dude Spellings for an episode that goes deep into the world of personal growth. Listen if you dare to Dude baring his soul and discussing the life-changing experience of his five-day intensive retreat known as “Training Camp For The Soul”. Once the heavy stuff is out of the way, Dude regales the listener with an account of how he did a rim to rim to rim crossing of the Grand Canyon (49 miles) without food! And how, when he finished with his crew and was welcomed at the South Rim with a stack of pizzas to celebrate, Dude instead decided to fast overnight in order to speed recovery. Yes, Dude is the first person to utter the transformational insight that fasting may just be the most efficient way to recovery from strenuous workouts! After all, we know that inflammation, immune function, and cell repair are all optimized when you are in a fasted state. Hard to imagine when athletes associate food with celebration after workouts, but these cutting edge insights will really get you thinking about the best ways to optimize nutrition, peak performance, and recovery.

0:00.0 | Welcome to the primal endurance podcast. Slow down and enjoy the show, where we wrap, literally, |
0:09.9 | about everything you need to know. I'm your host, Brad Kearns. Are you ready? Let's go. |
0:16.4 | Dude Spellings coming back, bringing some more heat, and I cannot wait to get into this fun new |
0:23.3 | stuff. And listeners, beware. This is not going to be all about heart rates and lactate thresholds. |
0:29.0 | We are going to go deep into life improvement and philosophical insights. I like it, bringing the heat |
0:36.1 | after the cold, right? So, yeah, I'm excited to tell you |
0:43.2 | about this personal development retreat I went on where we talked a lot about this, all of this |
0:51.4 | sort of emotional healing and inner child work and, you know, personal development, |
1:01.5 | trying to get self-improvement. You know, it's not all about just the, how far can you run and |
1:08.0 | how much can you bench press. Tell me more about the retreat. I mean, there's people probably listening that are on the |
1:15.9 | sidelines or ambivalent, fearful of exploring. But it seems to me everyone I talk to that |
1:24.8 | returns from something like this has a positive experience, |
1:27.9 | and I can reference back to when I was much younger and did the sequence of weekend retreats |
1:34.3 | that many people are familiar with, these popular companies have done them for years around the |
1:40.0 | country, and you just go deep into self-exploration and also how you relate to others in the |
1:47.0 | world. And I love the facilitators in my case anyway. I don't know about you, but, you know, |
1:52.7 | they would call people out on their bullshit and it was fun and entertainment. And the guy would |
1:58.0 | stand up with his hands on his hips and a scowl on his face. And the |
2:02.6 | facilitator would say, so right now you're being defiant. And everyone in the room is nodding their |
2:07.5 | head. And he's like, I am not being defiant. What are you talking about? And everyone starts cracking |
2:12.6 | up like you just did. And the guy's standing there like, what the, what the F are you guys laughing at? And then, |
2:22.2 | oh, we're laughing, laughing, laugh, and then it's your turn. And, you know, mine comes across differently. I'm not a badass guy staring down some, some poor facilitator who's trying his |
