  • Celebrity Death Match but influencers?

    Celebrity Death Match but influencers?
    Jul 17 2024
    Well, maybe not precisely “death” matches, but can we build a brand new, fun, competitive sport from existing sports and fitness elements?

    Dean Saddoris (@deansaddoris.ck) joined us for this exercise/thought experiment.

    Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) joined and ran the board.

  • Creed (2015) | A 50% Facts Review

    Creed (2015) | A 50% Facts Review
    Jul 10 2024
    Thirty-nine years after Rocky, and nine years after the last Rocky sequel, director Ryan Coogler served up a continuation/reboot of the Rocky story. This time, Balboa is not the center of the action. He reluctantly takes on the task of training Apollo Creed’s unknown love child, Adonis. Did he know about this kid before he was killed in the ring? (We never found out.) Does this kid possess the skills, the fight, and the heart his father did? (Would this be a Rocky-verse movie if he didn’t?) Do those American flag boxing shorts make an appearance? (You bet!)?

    Is this is better film than any of the other Rocky films that preceded it? You decide.

    This is one of Sebastian Brambila’s (@sebastian_brambila) favorite movies. He jumped in and also ran the board.

  • Rocky (1976) | A 50% Facts Review

    Rocky (1976) | A 50% Facts Review
    Jul 3 2024
    You don’t have to be wearing a pair of American flag boxing shorts to get that Rocky is a 4th of July flick (Even though it’s set in February and was released in December.) Why was Creed wearing those shorts anyway? (It was a Bicentennial gimmick.)

    How did this film set the template for a thousand Cinderella sports movies to come, and launched one of the most successful franchises in movie history on a shoestring budget? How does a too-old, never-was fighter, mafia enforcer, kinda creepy guy on the spectrum end up fighting the heavyweight champ AND going the distance?

    Our frequent media review collaborator, Dean Saddoris (@deansaddoris.ck) joined us to break down these questions. Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board.

    Jun 28 2024
    Most of our friends in the industry who have trained both high-level athletes and gen pop clients don’t have the depth of experience of our guest, Jacob Ross.

    We asked him of this take on the question, “What should I do to get started as a personal trainer?” Jacob shares how he got started and the things he did along the way to continue to improve.

    You can (and should) find Jacob on IG (@jacob.w.ross).

    It’s been way, way too long since we connected here with our good buddy, Jacob Ross. He’s headed to Paris with the South Sudan Olympic Basketball team for the 2024 Olympics. We chat about how that all came together, his work with the NGO Matter, what it’s like opening a gym with Tom Kallas, and why he’s training like a bodybuilder now.

    Not our first rodeo with this question, or with vegans among the members of our gym, but Nick is a big strong dude and a real hoot to chat with. What do you call a vegan who doesn’t really like vegetables? You can (and should) find Nick on IG (@meatymcsorley).
