A few weeks back we had Taylor Knibb on the show after her gold performance at Yokohama. She gave a lot of credit to the coaching of Ian O'Brien. This week we have Coach Ian O'Brien of Origin Performance joining us to talk about his work with Taylor and his squad of Olympic team and hopefuls.

Venga CBD knows how important sleep is for athletes so they created Venga Super Sleep. It has Melatonin, CBD AND an all-new cannabinoid CBN that’s been shown to promote sleep. You get all three in Venga Super Sleep and it’s available now. I think they sold out in the first couple of days but are sure to have more soon.
Oh, and get this - no sleep aid hangover. You’ll wake up well-rested and refreshed because Venga Super Sleep is all-natural and works with your body’s systems to promote a great night’s sleep. As with all of Venga CBD’s products, Super Sleep is 100% THC-free and non-habit forming.
You can check it out at Vengacbd.com/sleep and they have a great bundle offer running: If you buy a bottle of the Venga CBD daily CBD Ultra Gels, you can get a bottle of Super Sleep for just $34.00. It’s typically $85, so it’s a smokin’ deal!

Take your performance to the next level with UCAN Energy and Bars made with SuperStarch® UCAN uses SuperStarch instead of simple sugars to fuel serious athletes. UCAN keeps blood sugar steady compared to the energy spikes and crashes of sugar-based products. Steady energy equals sustained performance!
Saw Tim O'Donnell has his hands on UCAN EDGE. Each has 15g of SuperStarch Energy and 0g sugar. They are not a gel consistency, which is awesome! Is much more like a liquid. Tear off the top and just rolled it up. It wasn't sticky like gels. The flavor is like the tropical orange flavor of the Energy SuperStarch powder. I may my extra test tubes of UCAN SuperStarch.
You put in the training, so don't let nutrition limit your performance. Use UCAN in your training and racing to fuel the healthy way, finish stronger and recover more quickly! Use the code 303UCAN for 20% off at
