Olympic champion Alistair Brownlee strips elite performance back to what actually works, and why going easier, not harder, is often the smartest move.

In this episode, Alistair challenges hustle culture head-on, explaining why sustainable training beats hero workouts, and how compounding consistency over time matters more than short bursts of suffering. He breaks down the fundamentals, building an aerobic base, managing risk, and designing your environment so discipline doesn’t rely on willpower alone.

Alistair also reflects on defining moments from his career, including the brutal honesty of Beijing 2008, where coming up short became a data point rather than a failure. He shares practical insights on fueling, decision-making under pressure, and the clarity that comes from knowing what you can, and can’t, control.

This episode is about mastery without ego, systems over shortcuts, and building performance that lasts.

WHOOP founder Will Ahmed shares how recovery, not effort, became the key insight that reshaped how we understand elite performance and health. From working with the world’s best athletes to building one of the most influential performance companies, Will reveals what truly separates the best from the rest.

How can someone like LeBron James handle back-to-back max strain days and still wake up fully recovered? Will also breaks down what that tells us about sleep, consistency, and the foundations of sustainable greatness. He opens up about the unseen challenges of entrepreneurship, trusting your intuition, facing hundreds of investor rejections, and holding conviction when doubt and data collide.

Will challenges the traditional approach to health, explaining why annual check-ups are broken, why preventative care should feel aspirational, and how continuous feedback can improve performance without obsession.

This episode is all about recovery, resilience, and building systems, in business and life, that allow you to perform at your best, day after day.

Peloton instructor and former finance professional Ben Alldis opens up about the moment relentless ambition collided with reality, and forced him to rethink everything.

In this episode, Ben reflects on life inside a high-pressure corporate world, the burnout that crept in unnoticed, and how a cancer diagnosis became the wake-up call that changed his definition of success. He talks honestly about stepping off the treadmill, rediscovering movement, and why simple, consistent habits, not extremes, rebuilt his energy, mindset, and sense of purpose.

Ben also shares what resilience really looks like when both you and your partner face serious health challenges, and why focusing on what you can control can be life-changing.

This episode is about stripping success back to what actually matters, choosing fundamentals over hype, and building a life where health and ambition can finally coexist.
