In case you missed it: Season 1 of Transformation Talks is in the books!
I’m not yet sure when Season 2 will kick off. But you can still get my best transformation-related content right here!
On today’s episode of Transformation Talks, I’m joined by Kurt Ellis, a New York-based performance coach and wellness professional who specializes in getting people stronger and improving their overall performance.
But he’s also a wiz in the kitchen—which is particularly impressive, given his busy schedule as a trainer, father, and husband. In this interview, he breaks down how you can get good in the kitchen, too—and actually have a little bit of fun doing it.
Here’s the full breakdown of our conversation:
- How Kurt and I connected while interviewing for jobs (01:50)
- How Kurt went from Jamaica to the football field to banking to fitness (2:36)
- How Kurt “stumbled” into performance specialization (10:31)
- The biggest training mistakes people make (14:44)
- How to train around pain (23:07)
- How to make performance-friendly nutrition realistic (31:06)
- Everything you NEED to know about meal prep (39:03)
- How to have fun making delicious meals (53:36)
- Kurt’s Quick 6 answers (57:50)
- How Kurt’s son got on Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s radar (63:57)
