That’s what high performance is to me, the ability to adapt rapidly so you can achieve your potential. There are five key pillars to creating the conditions for adaptability: sleep, exercise, mental resilience, nutrition, and community/relationships.” - Dr Erik Korem “I maybe have a different concept on leadership. To me, leading is a verb. If you’re leading, you’re a leader. If you’re swimming you’re a swimmer, if you’re driving you’re a driver. If you’re leading you’re by definition a leader. I define leading as being looked to in a particular moment to make a decision or perform an action based on your unique gifts and abilities. So by that definition, everybody is a leader. All rank and role really describe is how many people are hoping you get it right when it’s your turn to wear the weight.” - Clint Bruce

"You can perform the normal resistance training that you would perform... but throw BFR cuffs on there, reduce the load. There alone, your overall fatigue is going to reduce." - Steven Borden

"For people that play pickleball a lot, this is a really good training modality. Especially if you're playing three, four times a week, you do need to be doing resistance training a couple of times a week." - Dr. Erik Korem
"In general, it seems like BFR training is about as safe as regular exercise, equated for intensity." - Steven Borden
