Nerdout & Workout Podcast

Dive into the Nerdout & Workout Podcast, where the universes of fandom and fitness converge into a dynamic journey of empowerment, exploration, and inclusivity. Our mission is twofold: obliterate gymtimidation and champion a realm where not only the underdogs and dark horses flourish but also where every individual feels seen and heard, especially when it comes to mental health.

Navigating through the worlds of sweat-soaked gym sessions and mythical fan theories, we extend our exploration to encompass the touching realities of fatherhood, the vibrant experiences of travel, the savory adventures of food, the spirited world of football, and crucially, the oft-overlooked discussions around mental health - particularly in men.

In a space where lifting weights and discussing the intricacies of Super Saiyan Blue go hand in hand, we also create a safe harbor for mental health conversations, providing a platform that seeks to break down stigmas, foster a supportive community, and promote mental wellbeing alongside physical fitness.

Join us as we delve into a spectrum of topics, offering tips, insights, and expert advice from professionals thriving in the Strength, Fitness, and Fandom realms. Whether you're here to level up in the gym, geek out over anime, navigate through the chaos and joy of parenting, traverse through wanderlust-filled travel tales, indulge in culinary escapades, analyze football strategies, or find solace and allies in mental health discussions, the Nerdout & Workout Podcast is here to journey alongside you.

Together, let's build a culture that celebrates each rep, each episode, and each adventure, amplifying love, joy, and the pulsating energy of our Nerdout & Workout culture. Your odyssey to intertwine fantasy, fitness, and life’s multifaceted joys and challenges begins right here.

Do you remember that underwater sport called Blitzball from Final Fantasy 10?

Now take that and put special forces and elite athletes in the arena, turn the ball into a torpedo and you got Underwater Torpedo League!

I’m joined by a fellow RFT coach Don Tran, former Marine Raider and co-founder of Underwater Torpedo League (UTL) and Deep End Fitness.

This league is actually for all fitness levels and if this peaks your interest in the slightest you should definitely listen to this episode. Don breaks down how they took a pick up game done only in the special forces and made it into a growing sport in the general public.

Don covers the fundamentals of breathing and skill that will not only improve your performance in the water but also in your lifestyle.
