Ep 060 - The Unwaffle Story: The Entrepreneurial Journey of Unwaffle

Welcome back to Ep 060 of The TrainAnything Show! Join us as we explore the journey of Unwaffle, an innovative company transforming breakfast with nutritious, gluten‑free, and delicious waffles. Erik, founder of Unwaffle, and Joe, their Marketing Director, share their entrepreneurial story, product insights, and tips for training and endurance—all wrapped in a fun, engaging conversation. This week’s episode features a special in‑studio conversation diving into “Building Fuel That Tastes Good: The Unwaffle Story.” Dylan and John kick things off with a fun Unwaffle‑themed "Waffle Wheel" song before settling into a relaxed, high‑energy conversation about performance, fueling, and building something local in Bozeman, Montana. From there, the discussion explores how Unwaffle got started, why they chose waffles as a fueling option, and what those early versions actually looked like (and tasted like). They unpack the bigger question of whether fueling should feel like food or function, and what makes something actually work for endurance athletes. Along the way, they share insights on common fueling mistakes, the culture of underfueling, and why simple, repeatable fueling strategies matter most. The takeaway is simple: the best fueling strategy is the one you can consistently execute—and if it tastes good, you’re a lot more likely to actually use it. As always, it’s a fun ride with some good nuggets, squirrels, a little jingle, and plenty of waffle talk… only on The TrainAnything Show. Please like and subscribe!

Ep 058 Execution Over Fitness (Part 3): Training Calm Under Stress

Welcome back to Ep 056 of The TrainAnything Show! This week’s episode wraps up the Execution Over Fitness series with Part 3: Training Calm Under Stress. Dylan and John open with TrainAnything’s of the Week—focusing on being consistently good and the power of compartmentalizing—before diving into a key idea: most athletes don’t fall apart because they lack fitness, they fall apart because stress changes how they make decisions. They unpack how stress narrows attention, speeds up reactions, and leads athletes to chase pace, force effort, or abandon plans too early. The conversation explores the difference between emotional training and productive training, and reframes calm as a performance skill—not something you either have or don’t. They break down how athletes gradually lose composure through small decisions, and share practical ways to train staying calm inside discomfort rather than reacting to it. By the end of the episode, the connection across the series becomes clear: pacing sets the tone, fueling supports it, and calm is what keeps it all intact. The takeaway is simple: fitness is built over time, but execution is decided in moments—and calm is what lets those moments work in your favor.

Ep 057 Execution Over Fitness (Part 2): Fueling Isn't Optional

Welcome back to Ep 057 of The TrainAnything Show! This week’s episode continues the Execution Over Fitness series with Part 2: Fueling Isn’t Optional (And Never Was). Dylan and John open with TrainAnything’s of the Week—touching on core work and re‑sleep training—before diving into a key issue in endurance sports: the widespread culture of underfueling. They unpack how “eating is cheating” and “toughing it out” mindsets have turned unnecessary suffering into a badge of honor, and why that approach quietly sabotages performance. The conversation breaks down how underfueling leads to late‑session fades, inconsistent results, and poor decision‑making, and reframes fueling as a performance skill—not a crutch. They explore how training the gut is just as important as training the body, and why fueling should be practiced consistently in training, not just on race day. The takeaway is simple: fueling doesn’t make training easier—it makes it honest, and it’s what allows your fitness to actually show up when it matters.

Ep 056 - The Pod Down Under: USA vs AUS

Welcome back to Ep 056 of The TrainAnything Show! This week’s episode spans hemispheres, with Dylan back home in Montana and John recording from Australia alongside their good friend Scotty, diving into a fun and insightful concept: endurance training in AUS vs. the USA — same letters, different order. After opening with a Men at Work Remix and TrainAnything’s of the Week, the conversation explores expectations versus reality, unpacking what they thought training in Australia would feel like compared to what it’s actually like on the ground. From first impressions to widely held stereotypes, they touch on differences in structure, attitude, environment, and approach — from data‑driven U.S. athletes to the more laid‑back, “get on with it” Aussie mindset. Along the way, they explore where those reputations come from, what holds up, what doesn’t, and how environment shapes more than we realize. The episode stays light, curious, and observational, with a simple thread throughout: same sport, same letters — just a different order once you experience it. As always, it’s a fun ride with good nuggets, a few squirrels, and a little jingle… Only on The TrainAnything Show. Please like and subscribe!
