Back by popular demand - Greg Hill Part 2! From BMX icon to business owner, Greg Hill joins Coach Robb for a raw and powerful conversation about humility, resilience, and rediscovering purpose beyond the spotlight. Greg reflects on his rise through the golden era of 1980s BMX: racing for GT, Robinson, GHP and defining what it meant to be a champion before there was a blueprint for success. Greg opens up about the pressure, the fame, and the illusion that came with seeing himself in magazines beside a Porsche, and how life eventually forced him to “murder his ego” to find true peace.

Through stories of personal loss, injury, and reinvention, Greg reveals what happens when the applause fades and the contracts end. He discusses learning to start over, praying for direction, embracing humility, and building a successful epoxy flooring business from the ground up. His journey parallels that of many athletes and entrepreneurs who must pivot from public recognition to personal growth, proving that fulfillment doesn’t come from money or fame, but from faith, discipline, and meaningful work.

Together, Coach Robb and Greg explore timeless lessons on identity, financial discipline, and the power of mindset. They break down how to manage success without losing your soul, why time, not wealth, is life’s most precious currency, and how ego can destroy the very dreams it once fueled. Packed with honesty, wisdom, and humor, this episode is a masterclass in resilience, perspective, and what it truly means to win, on and off the track.

Episode #16 dives into “fueling for health and performance” for vet riders: keep nutrition simple (shop the perimeter), fix the calorie gap first (use Garmin for burn + MyFitnessPal for intake), and remember that macronutrients (carbs/protein/fats) need micronutrients (vitamins/minerals from fruits/veggies) to power energy, immunity, and injury resistance. Extreme diets (keto, OMAD, etc.) may backfire—driving cravings, adrenal stress, and muscle loss—so aim for consistent, quality eating to protect bones, ligaments, tendons, and lap-time consistency.

Hydration gets equal billing: know your sweat rate, avoid hyponatremia from plain water overload, and use electrolytes (e.g., energy fuel) to absorb fluids and preserve muscle contraction. Practical race-day plan: finish a normal breakfast ≥2 hours pre-ride; between motos target ~300–350 kcal/hr (e.g., half bottle of sports drink + half Uncrustable, not both in full) and sip electrolytes before/during/after. Low blood sugar wrecks depth perception and decision-making, which raises crash risk—so keep fuel steady. Finally, watch recovery metrics—Body Battery, stress score, resting HR—to judge readiness; overtraining = exceeding what you can absorb, not a set number of hours.

► Track your calorie burn vs. intake for 4 days using Garmin + MyFitnessPal and close the gap before changing macros.

► Calculate your sweat rate and switch to electrolytes (not plain water) between motos to prevent cramps and maintain lap times.

► Build a simple race-day fueling plan: breakfast ≥2 hrs. pre-ride, then 300–350 kcal/hr. + steady sips of Energy Fuel.

► Audit recovery with Body Battery, stress score, resting HR; if they trend down, scale volume before you tip into overtraining.

► Skip fad diets; prioritize whole foods, fruits/veggies, quality fats (omega- 3s/MCTs) to support immune system and injury prevention.

The discussion begins by addressing the emotional rollercoaster families face at Loretta Lynn’s—celebrating good results or questioning their place in the sport when outcomes fall short. Derek Harris emphasizes that parents often misplace frustration on mechanical issues rather than recognizing the rider’s challenges with new tracks and pressure. Coach Robb points out that expectations should be based on regional performance multipliers, and shifting goals mid-event erodes both confidence and enjoyment. Families are reminded that celebrating incremental progress and setting realistic, consistent goals builds long-term development and confidence.

Mechanical Prep vs. Rider Performance
A recurring theme is the tendency to over-rely on shops and suspension tuners, which creates unrealistic expectations at a national event. When results dip, riders and parents often blame the bike—yet proven regional setups suddenly become “bad” without logical cause. Robb explains the “familiarity principle,” where confidence drops in unfamiliar conditions, and stresses that no amount of horsepower or suspension can replace adaptability, fitness, and rider fundamentals. True confidence comes from validated preparation—dyno runs, heat cycles, and consistent moto testing—not last-minute changes at the Ranch.

Arm Pump, Pressure, and Accountability
The issue of arm pump surfaces as a common excuse. Robb clarifies that if athletes have been fine all season, sudden arm pump at Loretta’s is more often mental strain than physiological failure. Heart-rate data and moto simulations prove their fitness capacity, so struggles usually come from nerves, pressure, or mindset. Accountability becomes critical: athletes and families must debrief after each moto, separate controllable from uncontrollable factors, and avoid emotional finger-pointing. Even professional riders, like Jett Lawrence, model accountability by openly admitting setup mistakes, showing that responsibility fuels growth.

Preparation, Execution, and Long-Term Success
The conversation closes by stressing that real success lies in disciplined preparation and execution. Small details—spare goggles for rain, cooling strategies, consistent starts, and proper clutch care—often separate winners from the pack. Riders must learn to articulate what they feel on the bike, blending feedback with technical data to avoid chasing myths about horsepower or suspension. Robb underscores his “Four Pillars of Success”—preparation, fitness, recovery, and strategy—as the foundation of championship habits. Families are reminded that confidence and results are not bought but bui
