103. A Return to Performance with the Bulgarian Bag
Episode 103
In this conversation, Mike and his client Shekhinah Cluba start off by discussing the concept of using "food as medicine," namely bee pollen and its impact on females. The heart of the show dives into Shekenah's return to performance with the Bulgarian Bag, as she is in town from across the country to work with Mike for two weeks to get Bulgarian Bag Level 1 & 2 certified. We cover her transition from being an active athlete to becoming a mother of two daughters and now reclaiming her athletic potential. We also discuss the importance of training coordination and neuromuscular patterning with the Bulgarian Bag. The Bulgarian Bag is a training tool with numerous applications for nearly any population and fitness or performance goal you'd like to achieve.
Topics Covered:
- The Healing Power of Bee Pollen
- Transitioning from Motherhood to Athletic Training
- The Importance of Trust, Self-Care, and Respect in Relationships
- Bulgarian Bag Training
- Training Coordination and Neuromuscular Patterning
- Living a Fulfilling Life: The Top Five Principles
