Nervous System Training Podcast

Sales, Systems, and Self-Mastery | Soober x Quintin Torres | Nervous System Training Podcast Ep. 32

In this episode of the Nervous System Training Podcast, we sit down with Soober, a high-performing salesman on Quintin’s team, to explore how nervous system principles translate into the world of business, communication, and human behavior.We break down what it means to sell with regulation, how to read physiology in real time, and why the best salespeople are actually masters of energy management and emotional control.This episode bridges the gap between athletic performance and business performance — showing how the same nervous system that drives movement also drives mindset, motivation, and success.Timestamps:00:00 Intro – Meet Soober03:00 The crossover between sales and nervous system training10:00 How stress, posture, and breath affect communication18:00 Regulating emotions before calls and meetings27:00 Building rapport through nervous system awareness38:00 Systematizing energy management for performance48:00 Lessons from sales that apply to sport and lifeFollow our guest:Instagram – (link to Soober’s profile if available)Follow us:Host – https://www.instagram.com/quality_values/Co-host – https://www.instagram.com/quintin.torres36/Subscribe for more conversations on nervous system optimization, performance psychology, and functional training.#NervousSystemTraining #SalesPerformance #Breathwork #Focus #EmotionalControl #FlowState #MindBodyConnection #QuintinTorres #JacobShields

Reversing Scoliosis & Rebuilding Posture | Sam Miller “The Flow Wolf” | NSTP #30

In this episode of the Nervous System Training Podcast, we sit down with Sam Miller (@the_flowwolf) — a scoliosis and postural correction specialist whose journey from an 85-degree kyphoscoliosis diagnosis to full functional recovery redefines what the human body is capable of. Sam shares his story of chronic compression, immune system shutdown, and the psychological toll of structural imbalance — and how he rebuilt his system through a process he calls Unraveling, Aligning, and Fortifying.We explore the connections between posture, breath, emotion, and the nervous system — and what it truly means to reclaim your life force.

NSTP #29: Academia vs. Adaptability In Sports Science & Training Systems for Youth Athletes

In Episode 29, Jacob and Quintin dissect the divide between academic exercise science and functional, system-based training philosophies. The first half dives into how academia shapes authority in the fitness world — contrasting PhD-driven approaches like Renaissance Periodization with the experimental, field-tested methods of innovators like Marv Marinovich and other functional systems. At 35:15, the conversation shifts toward youth athletic development — how to train adaptability, rhythm, and reactive intelligence from a young age. The hosts explore how coaches can integrate nervous system principles into early-stage training without falling into the trap of rigid structure. ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 – Intro and RP update3:15 – Academia, authority, and exercise science culture9:40 – The PhD system vs. practical experimentation14:30 – Marv Marinovich and functional pioneers20:55 – The gap between lab science and real athletes28:00 – Neural adaptability vs. linear programming35:15 – Transition to youth development36:10 – How to train systems, not muscles, in youth athletes44:25 – Coaching awareness, rhythm, and feedback52:30 – Why movement intelligence starts early1:00:15 – Closing thoughts on rethinking structure 🎧 Connect 📺 YouTube: Nervous System Training Podcast [https://www.youtube.com/@NervousSystemTrainingPodcast]🎧 Spotify: Nervous System Training Podcast [https://open.spotify.com/show/3746sAvdsgpQeOahsaTNOP?si=dadb6f80860c401c&utm_source=chatgpt.com]📸 Jacob (Host): @quality_values [https://www.instagram.com/quality_values/]📸 Quintin (Co-Host): @quintin.torres36 [https://www.instagram.com/quintin.torres36/] 🏷️ Hashtags #NervousSystemTraining #FunctionalTraining #MarvMarinovich #SportsScience #YouthAthletes #NeuralAdaptation #MovementIntelligence #FlowState #AthleticDevelopment

NSTP #28: The Problem With Modern "Sports Science"

In this follow-up to Episode 27, Jacob and Quintin break down the deeper issue with modern “evidence-based” training systems.This episode explores how Renaissance Periodization’s reductionist, muscle-centric model overlooks the neurological, perceptual, and emotional systems that drive real athletic performance. From fascia to feedback loops, they explain why training needs to move beyond sets, reps, and spreadsheets — and into the realm of rhythm, adaptability, and dynamic control.⏱️ Chapters0:00 – Intro: why this episode continues the RP conversation5:45 – What “evidence-based” misses about the human system11:30 – Why muscle isolation breaks natural feedback loops18:05 – Perception and posture as the real performance variables25:10 – Nervous system fatigue vs. muscular fatigue31:55 – The illusion of scientific objectivity in S&C38:25 – Fascia, rhythm, and emotional context in movement45:40 – Training the system, not the parts52:00 – The future of athletic development🔗 Connect With Us🎧 Spotify: Nervous System Training Podcast📺 YouTube: Nervous System Training Podcast📸 Jacob (Host): @quality_values📸 Quintin (Co-Host): @quintin.torres36📌 Hashtags#NervousSystemTraining #RenaissancePeriodization #FunctionalTraining #SportsScience #AthleteDevelopment #NeuroscienceOfPerformance

NSTP #27: Renaissance Periodization vs. Joel Seedman — A Nervous System Perspective

In this episode, Jacob and Quintin review the viral Renaissance Periodization critique of Joel Seedman, unpacking both sides of the argument through a nervous system lens. Instead of focusing on who’s “right,” we explore what each system reveals about modern training — the contrast between reductionist biomechanics and dynamic, perception-driven movement. From the science of reflexes and intent to the role of chaos and coordination, this conversation highlights how nervous system training reframes old debates in strength and conditioning. ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 – Intro: Context of the RP vs. Seedman debate5:10 – What Renaissance Periodization gets right about scientific rigor11:25 – Where biomechanics misses the nervous system’s role18:00 – Joel Seedman’s 90-degree obsession: misunderstood or overhyped?24:40 – How “weird training” challenges linear models31:05 – Perception, rhythm, and the limits of reductionist training37:50 – Nervous system feedback loops in movement quality44:25 – Chaos vs. control: redefining “functional” movement50:40 – Bridging science and art in modern coaching57:00 – Final reflections: what both camps can learn 🔗 Connect With Us 🎧 Spotify: Nervous System Training Podcast [https://open.spotify.com/show/3746sAvdsgpQeOahsaTNOP?si=dadb6f80860c401c] 📺 YouTube: Nervous System Training Podcast [https://www.youtube.com/@NervousSystemTrainingPodcast] 📸 Jacob (Host): @quality_values [https://www.instagram.com/quality_values/] 📸 Quintin (Co-Host): @quintin.torres36 [https://www.instagram.com/quintin.torres36/] 📌 Hashtags #NervousSystemTraining #JoelSeedman #RenaissancePeriodization #SportsScience #FunctionalTraining #Biomechanics #StrengthAndConditioning
