Coach PJ Nestler and I talk about the integration between breath, movement, mindset, nutrition, and connection. Learn how you can look at everything in your life as performance, and actively improve your wellbeing with high performance principles and habits no matter where you’re starting from or what your goals are.

0:39.2 | Please do not apply any of this information without first speaking with your doctor. Now, let's head to the show. Hey everyone, today I spoke |
0:45.6 | with PJ Nessler, who is with XPT, layered Hamilton's outfit called Extreme Performance Training, |

0:57.3 | midstream in their health journey. So I want to make sure to clarify that even if you're not |

2:20.5 | conversation and one of the main premises is there's a bleed over from athletic or sports |
2:28.5 | performance into improving one's health. And I make the analogy or the observation that I see both of these |
2:38.3 | existing on the same continuum. When you're not feeling well, you need some of the same |
2:44.6 | framing and perspective around self-talk to get through that and the ability to expose |
