When a young Eva Kollisch arrives as a refugee in New York in 1940, she finds a community among socialists who share her values and idealism. She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self. In addition to Eva Kollisch’s memoirs Girl in Movement (2000) and The Ground Under My Feet (2014), LBI’s collections include an oral history interview with Eva conducted in 2014 and the papers of Eva’s mother, poet Margarete Kolllisch, which document Eva’s childhood experience on the Kindertransport.

"It's time to make the Donuts." In a few recent polls, we found that about half of you say you move on from a training program when it gets boring. Given that repetition is basically requisite to any physical training, we thought we’d tackle this topic and vouch for the grind of donut making. Boredom is part of the process. Whether you learn to get interested in the details or just accept the repetition and cruise through it, sexy results come from unsexy efforts. As do delicious donuts. Key Points: Who Gets Bored? – most of us do at many points, but learning how to continue is essential to real progress How to Define Boredom – assess first why you think you’re bored Goals & Expectations – figure out if you are making values-based intrinsic goals vs. failing at arbitrary external goals or expectations Staying Engaged is a Learned Skill – we can develop the capacity to notice nuance and grow our capacity for boredom Progress Is Non-Linear – we often can’t see our progress while we are in it or without an external marker Know Yourself, Plan for What You Need – set up what you need so you have support for when you do plateau Progress Is Not the Next Step – why progress isn’t the next progression, movement, or fancy add-on The Future : Help us decide which episodes to record next Resources: How We Keep the Basics Interesting – Our episode on the two things that’ll help you give the basics the love they deserve Fighting Boredom in Your Workouts – Our other episode on working through the grind How to Build a Training Routine – Our article on how to make an exercise plan you actually look forward to A Not-Boring Article on Walking – Our article on how “boring walking” can lend itself to integrating movement, awareness, and breathing The GMB Method – A breakdown of why skills-based fitness is more efficient and interesting Want to Stick to Your Training? – Our article on how to tap into your long-term internal motivators Avoid Exercise Burnout – Our article on how to autoregulate your training so you can stay on course Support the show 👉 Try a free strength and agility workout…

Nike says that "if you have a body, you're an athlete." That's BS, and it can lead to poor decisions and wasted energy that don't benefit you. Of course, you may be an athlete. We've worked with clients competing at all levels in just about any sport or activity you can name. But the vast majority of people we work with are definitely not athletes. What does that mean? Are we saying they're not good enough? Serious enough? No. Simply that their lives don't revolve around their training. This episode talks about the choice to become and athlete - and the choice not to. The latter gives you freedom to make different choices and to enjoy your practice in the best way for you. Key Points: Why We’re Not Athletes : Calling yourself an athlete can be destructive and limiting How to Differentiate : The difference between hobbies, sports and workouts; Andy gets spicy about CrossFit and Cupcakes Freedom & Fun : By not being an athlete, you get make the best decisions for you and enjoy your activities Resources: Physical Autonomy – Our favorite topic, figure out what to do to meet your own needs The Fundamentals for Success – learn the foundational attributes necessary to be successful at any sport How to Develop the Athleticism You Need – be prepared and train for any level of activity or sport What We Teach – what, why and how we teach, and how these principles can help inform any training you do How to Make the Most of Your Time – make choices not compromises in training and everything else in your life Tap Into Your Long-Term Motivation – make sure your training is driven by motivations that are meaningful to you Support the show 👉 Try a free strength and agility workout…
Play is a topic that is often left out of the conversation in fitness. This is in spite of the fact that experimentation, exploration and going off script is at the core of many physical training disciplines—dance, martial arts, acrobatics, any sport you play . However, play is not just free form improvisation or what children do on the playground; it requires a foundation in what you are practicing. In this episode, we get into a subject that is near and dear to our hearts and some of our other parts: how to play with yourself. Key Points: What Play Is : It’s not just what kids do, what Play is in the context of training and skill acquisition How to Play Effectively : Play with what you already know; examples of how to explore what you are practicing Safety & the Unknown : Learn specific ways to maintain safety while doing something new Other Tips : Keeping an open mind and noticing opportunities can help you create more options The Future : Help us decide which episodes to record next Resources: The GMB Method – A breakdown of the 5 P’s including Play Balancing Goal Oriented Training with Movement Exploration – Our article with strategies to work exploration and play into your routine Why All Adults Should Play – Our article on why Play should be part of an exercise routine Playing with Movement – Our video on adding movement exploration to your practice Transcript of this Episode Turning Unconventional Play into Lifetime of Fitness – Our episode with Mark Smith of Asylum Fitness about Play as fitness Play Your Way to Any Skill – Our episode with Josh Vogel about mastery through Play Learning to Incorporate Play – Our episode on why anyone can play and how Support the show 👉 Try a free strength and agility workout…

Like us, you want to focus on just the essentials in order to help you better enjoy the things you love to to do like practicing your martial arts and being active with your families. In this episode, we were happy to be able to chat with Philip Chubb, otherwise known as the Mindful Mover, in which we discuss how to minimize the time you spend training while maximizing the range of gains you make. This is not just the cliché of "less is more," but practical things everyone can apply to their training to get a life beyond the gym. Key Points : Do Fewer Exercises : We are mortal and have limited time, do exercises that have carry over to other ones Do Less Reps Less Often : Learn how to use Accommodating Resistance to maximize every movement Stop Over-training : Training injuries aren’t worth it, find the minimum effective dose Cardio : Sprint drop sets are miserable but you only have to do them once a week Get a Life: Training is fun but it shouldn’t be everything Resources : The Mindful Mover – Philip and Martina’s website @the_mindful_mover – Philip on Instagram Mindful Mover – Philip on YouTube Body by Science – a book by John Little and Doug McGuff on complete fitness in 12 minutes a week Breathing Exercises – Learn how to make your workouts better and help you recover faster 3 Steps to Autoregulation Training – How to not burn out How Many Reps, Sets, Exercises, and Workouts You Should Be Doing – Our episode on how much is enough Our Articles on Injury Prevention – Our best posts on recovery, prevention, and building resilience Support the show 👉 Try a free strength and agility workout…
Martial art has its history in combat, so as a company founded by three martial artists, Rule #1 (Don't Die) is fundamental to GMB. If you die, you don't get to do anything else. It's over. That's the end. It might sound dramatic but self-preservation is key to making any kind of progress. While this seems like a fairly basic and obvious fact, it is one that often falls to the wayside when we start taking on new challenges. In this episode, we talk about how everything comes with a trade-off and how to assess your training in order to not make irreversible decisions. Key Points: Don’t Die: It’s a metaphor, don’t do anything that has lasting or permanent negative implications What to do Instead : Reassess what you’re doing, how you’re doing it and why Challenge Doesn’t = Pain : Don’t conflate pain with progress, there are many ways to make gains Our Advice : Examples of avoidable mistakes + two tips to use for any movement Irreversible Decisions : Challenges are good, but don’t go past the point of no return The Future : Help us decide which episodes to record next Resources: 3 Steps to Autoregulation Training – How to not burn out The GMB Method – A breakdown of how to Assess, Address, Apply to make progress on anything you’re working on DOMS – They Suck! – Our episode on Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness Breathing Exercises – Learn how to make your workouts better and help you recover faster Transcript of this Episode How Many Reps, Sets, Exercises, and Workouts You Should Be Doing – Our episode on how much is enough Our Articles on Injury Prevention – Our best posts on recovery, prevention, and building resilience Support the show 👉 Try a free strength and agility workout…

We get it - you were born before the turn of the millennium, so much of your knowledge of health and fitness comes from the Jane Fonda Workout VHS and watching interviews with Arnie in junior high PE class. But you’re a grown-ass adult, and you’re still capable of learning new things. It’s time to learn how to prepare your body for a productive training session. “But I heard warming up is a waste of time!” I’m sure your buddy with the bad back who told you this helpful tidbit had your best interests in mind, and we completely agree that warming up like a recreational jogger in 1983 isn’t going to help you much. But if you spend most of your day in a low exertion environment and try to immediately transition into a high-exertion training session, you’re going to have problems. This episode is about the right way to prepare yourself for training - how to get your mind in the right place, how to prepare your body to maximize the benefits of training, and how you can organize your environment for productive training. Is it OK to skip prep and just start training? Sure, and you can also eat a frozen sausage without taking the wrapper off. But you’d be acting like an idiot, so cut it out and learn how to do things right. Support the show 👉 Try a free strength and agility workout…

"Just squat!" "Just do intermittent fasting!" As sentient beings in the 21st century, we all have pretty solid bullshit detectors by now, but when we're facing challenges, it's still tempting to believe the easy answers. And why not? Mostly, they're offered in earnest from friends with the best of intentions. But sometimes, there's an insidious bias behind the rec. In either case, "just X" is usually masking a litany of gotchas and caveats that you should understand before jumping in. This episode is about investigating claims without wasting time researching beyond your necessity as a layperson. If you're gonna trust someone as far as you can throw them, you better learn to throw! We'll look at veracity, context, and incentives as heuristics for casual analysis of "maybe too good to be true" claims. In other words, it's a tune-up for your bullshit detector so you can skip the crap and start using the solutions that suit you best. Support the show 👉 Try a free strength and agility workout…
It's easy to get overwhelmed by all the possibilities out there. Decisions are hard, and we can't make them for you. We can, however, show you how we make a lot of our decisions. In this episode, we revisit the framework "Hell Yes or No," give examples of how to apply it in both your life and training, and explain how it can free you up from indecision, inaction, or overwhelm. Learn how to practice saying "No" so that you are spending time doing what you really want to. Support the show 👉 Try a free strength and agility workout…
"Boredom, I think, protects the individual, makes tolerable for him the impossible experience of waiting for something without knowing what it could be." Here's the deal: you will get bored. We all love that new-car smell and sense of novelty when we start something new. The first couple of weeks on a new program or routine usually feels like you're really making progress, but then the honeymoon ends, and you find yourself knee-deep in The Grind. The Grind is the inevitably boring middle part of a training plan when things stop feeling exciting and fun, and you might even wonder whether you're making any progress at all. And that's why most people quit or program hop sometime in the third or fourth week of a program. Unfortunately, the grind is super-important. It's where you cement your learnings and really start making headway. Without the grind, you don't build to the eventual results you want. The Grind can suck, but we'll show you how you can learn to love it. Support the show 👉 Try a free strength and agility workout…
"Progressive overload" is a principle in training that says you need to continually add greater stimulus to an exercise to keep seeing a training effect. And it makes sense. To get stronger, you need to continue pushing your body. But the history of popular fitness has instilled a bias here that overload can only be achieved via a handful of training variables, primarily load and repetitions. So once we get to a certain point, we naturally start looking at adding weight to our training. It works great for exercises like pull-ups and dips, but in others, it's a recipe for injury... or at least for poor results. When it comes to bodyweight exercise - and especially skill-based training - complexity and sophistication of movement are often neglected as pathways for progression. This episode hopes to change that. We'll explore why adding weight works and when it's the wrong choice. We'll also cover examples of sophistication instead. We know that making the right choices is tough! There's a lot of nuance involved, and this episode will provide the context you need to figure out what'll work best for your goals.
