Why "no excuses" isn't discipline with Greg Sutton
In this episode, Nikki is joined by Nutrition & Behavior Change Coach Greg Sutton to talk about discipline, why the fitness industry's "no excuses" version of it can backfire, and the psychological skills that actually help us reach our long term goals. Topics covered: Why discipline isn't a well-defined construct in psychology and why this matters when we apply it to our own lives.

Why self-regulation matters if you want to make progress while dealing with injuries, chronic illness, pain or a body that doesn't always cooperate. The role of acceptance in making progress and why acceptance isn't the same thing as giving up.

Pilates Physics: Springs, strength & exercise science w/ Kaleen Canevari
Ever been told that reformer footwork is the equivalent of a barbell squat? Or that adding a dumbbell to your Pilates workout counts as strength training? In this episode, Nikki is joined by mechanical engineer and Pilates teacher Kaleen Canevari to discuss the physics of Pilates spring resistance and the potential applications of Pilates and strength training through the lens of exercise science. Topics covered: Why springs get heavier the longer they're stretched and how that resistance will change based on the height of your client and the exercise being performed. The math behind a reformer spring vs a free weight (e.g. a dumbbell or barbell) and how that influences the amount of weight that you're moving during an exercise. The difference between progressing movement complexity and progressing in how much weight you can move during an exercise. Why new movers often make strength gains early in their Pilates practice and how this may change as they become more advanced. Why standing on a reformer with a dumbbell is not a good replacement for strength training if your goals are to increase bone density, strength, or muscle mass. Why it's difficult to track Pilates based metrics and what that might look like in the future.
