Shrud family this week on Barbell Shrug David Bidler from Physiology First is coming in.

You know this show is something that is just near and dear to my heart. We had Matt

Boudreau on maybe two months ago talking about the Apogee school system and since we had him

on the show I have actually looked at many options locally to me there's an Apogee school that's starting in my town, which is very, very cool that I am very excited about potentially having my kids go to and one of the coolest parts where I was actually introduced to Physiology First

was through that podcast with Matt Boudreau.

When David comes in today and he's really talking a lot about how we can start to build the

habits of physical and mental health.

Of course everybody understands that there's like a massive crisis of just creating healthy

human beings and how sick our kids are and if you're paying attention to any of it

which if you're listening to the show you definitely already are.

We've got to figure out a way as a society that we can start making healthier children and a lot of that just by the time kids get to 18 years old and they're making their own decisions in the world.

They don't have the tools of understanding how to eat healthy, how to work out.

They've been doing whatever it is, whether it's staring at a TV or an iPad or video games or

they just don't have an understanding of what

movement is how great it feels they haven't built those patterns into their life and

physiology first is the program that inside the apogee school system as well as just in many

other places just that's just the one that's closest to me and closest to home

but they they're building these curriculums they're they're showing kids what it means to actually be a healthy, how to eat well, how to get into cold tubs,

how to deal with hard workouts, saunas, and layering the curriculum laying the education system around

mental and physical health so that by the time they are on their own they have

an understanding of what it means to truly be healthy, having some tactics that they can use on a daily basis to improve their lives, and hopefully, over time, we can start to change the conversation so that we're not just sending people out into the world hoping that they can just figure it out,

but actually empowering them with being able to make healthy decisions and having the education behind all of it.
