In Episode 187, the Two Fit Crazies continue their streak of amazing Canadian health and wellness rock stars with the co-owner of Urban Poling, Diana Oliver. Joining the show from Ontario, Diana reveals the powerful fitness and rehabilitation benefits from Urban Poling, most known as “Nordic walking.” First developed by occupational therapist and gerontologist, Mandy Shintani, Urban Poling was born from her avid desire to promote life-long fitness, active living, and her passion for the outdoors. As Diana explains, Urban Poling is not only for the fitness enthusiast who is looking for a more intense walking workout, but also for rehabilitation programs that are suitable for the arthritic population, cardiac rehab, pre/post hip or knee surgeries, balance issues, and more. Diana also shares her personal story of how she used Urban Poling to help rehabilitate a life-threatening heart condition after giving birth to her second child. You are going to be blown away by the endless benefits of incorporating Urban Poling into your life. Not only does it activate 90% of the muscles in your body, but you will burn over 20% more calories than traditional walking.

The Two Fit Crazies cannot wait to start Urban Poling! We are all in and we know that you will be too!

Enjoy!

Logan Muller - 2020 Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast Scholarship Award Winner - Episode 176

Episode 176 - Logan Muller - 2020 Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast Scholarship Award Winner

“I was only 14-years-old, and I was not like other kids...I was diagnosed with juvenile arthritis...I had to rely on medicine…I was not going to give up.”

“...exercise and eating better makes me feel good.” - Logan Muller (18-years-old & Rheumatoid arthritis WARRIOR!)

This episode of the Two Fit Crazies & A Microphone Podcast is very special. Today, you will hear from Logan Muller, who is joined by her mother Linda Muller, for an in-studio interview that will pull at your heartstrings. Logan, the recipient of the 2020 Two Fit Crazies & A Microphone Scholarship, presented through the Brick Township Chamber of Commerce, shares her powerful story of perseverance and determination to overcome and triumph over her juvenile rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis as a young teenager. Logan, a super sweet, intelligent, “old-soul,” as her mother lovingly refers to her, endured years of physical and emotional obstacles and many times of uncertainty. From long trips to and from her specialists, to undergoing various chemo treatments in an attempt to put her disease into remission, Logan was able to remain focused on her schoolwork and even managed to make it to the Cheerleading World Championships three times where she earned an 11th place ranking! Logan is wise beyond her years as she proves while discussing the impact that eating a healthy diet, exercise and a positive mindset has had on her ability to reduce flare-ups and feel good. Everyone needs to take notes on this one!

Finally, the Two Fit Crazies fill in Logan on their 40-mile run for Christine’s 40th birthday to benefit her scholarship and how Logan must now continue her journey to inspire others through her story! Logan will be attending Seton Hall University this fall where she has already been accepted to a 6-year occupational therapy program.

Thank you to the Brick Township Chamber of Commerce and the Muller Family for making this episode so special.

Episode 143 - Medical Fitness Tour 2020 Recap - Christine & Brian Rally for Doctors to Prescribe Fitness & Nutrition 

“We all share the same mission; we want to improve the quality of peoples’ lives through movement and nutrition. Let’s shift the paradigm!” -Christine

In Episode 143, Brian and Christine reunite for a powerful conversation about shifting the paradigm that exists between the current state of medical professionals and fitness professionals around the world.  Christine talks about her recent trip to lecture at the Medical Fitness National Conference at the University of Irvine and discusses her trademarked facial fitness and rehabilitation program, Let’s FACE It Together™.  Both Brian and Christine elaborate on some of the latest research and studies to support the collaboration of both professions. While the traditional doctor “treats problems,” the fitness professional is interested in preventing problems and reducing the onset of diseases.  Let’s geek out on the research and studies that prove a healthy diet that includes movement will naturally lead you to live a more quality life! If you have yet to hear about the MedFit Network and Education Foundation, a non-profit organization spearheaded by Lisa Dougherty, it’s time to check it out and join the movement. 

Let’s Shift the Paradigm!

Episode 95- Dr. Sebastian Gonzales DC, CCSP, CSCS, RMSK Performance Sportscare/Podcast Host/Author ​

“...fitness is the stepping stone toward the other result.”  “...physical therapy...the end goal is to be an athlete again, not just rehab…”  -Dr. Sebastian Gonzales     

 

In Episode 95 of Two Fit Crazies & a Microphone podcast, we had a blast talking with Dr. Sebastian Gonzales of Huntington Beach, California. Dr. Gonzales, an accomplished Sports Chiropractor and Human Movement Specialist, shares how his experiences rehabilitating childhood injuries lead him to re-evaluate the goals of physical therapy. Dr. Gonzales believes that we first need to examine why we believe we are injured or why we believe we “can’t” do something. Only then, we can begin to “unravel the yarn” and work towards standing and lasting results.  Dr. Gonzales also offers a unique perspective on the state of therapy and the way in which you should view rehabilitating injuries. Dr. Gonzales also gives out some awesome tips from his latest book, ​ I Will Beat Back Pain ​as well as awesome advice from his podcast, RESTORING HUMAN MOVEMENT!
