0:00.0 | Today's podcast guest is Helen Falaveno, HMF Yoga. |
0:04.4 | This is very exciting for many reasons. |
0:06.7 | So Helen is somebody that I found on YouTube and I was just kind of dabbling in yoga and sort of liked it. |
0:15.5 | Kind of liked it. |
0:16.5 | Didn't really know if I liked it for sure. |
0:19.5 | But I knew that I wanted to incorporate yoga and mobility |
0:23.0 | training into our app, our training app. And Helen just boom, it clicked because she made me feel |
0:29.8 | like it was okay that I was this stiff triathlet and that I couldn't get into the positions like |
0:34.2 | she did. And it wasn't all the artsy, fartsy yoga that is a bit of a turnoff |

1:19.2 | Because as a lot, as people are starting to learn, triathlon isn't just swim bike run. There is |
1:23.9 | strength. There is flexibility that are so critical to making you like a well-rounded athlete. |
1:28.9 | And yoga is a great way to get there. |
1:30.8 | So we're really, I think, lucky that you stumbled upon her to begin with and that she responded to your email. |
1:36.7 | Yeah, yeah, it was great. |
1:38.0 | And it was kind of like I felt like fan-girly because Helen does obviously all of the yoga videos that we've done. |
