23. Dr. Alex Harrison, Team USA Bobsledder, Renaissance Periodization
Original Air Date: 7/28/2020
Former Team USA Bobsledder and current Lead Endurance Consultant at Renaissance Periodization joins today’s show for an insightful conversation about perseverance, belief in oneself and the control we have over our own destiny. With a PhD in sports physiology and performance, Dr. Alex works with professional and amateur athletes alike dial in their programming and diet to compete at their highest level. An accomplished athlete in his own right, Alex is a former Team USA Bobsledder and 2x All-American Track and Field athlete who today competes in Triathlons and cycling.
In today’s show, Alex discusses his progression from “average” high school athlete to Collegiate All American. The secret to his later athletic success. His assessment of nature vs. nurture and the extent that we can maximize potential. Alex’s dream of becoming an Olympic Decathlete and his unexpected introduction to the sport of Bobsled. He recounts the training process for the national team, what makes a great bobsledder and clarifies that Cool Runnings only got it half right.
We learn about his training in the years leading up to the 2018 Olympics. The misconception that strength negates speed. How his wife has an eye for identifying talent and at times is the better choice for writing his programming. The choice each of us has the opportunity to make when faced with adversity and the revelation that his wife very well may be the best athlete in the Harrison family RV.
