March is Colon Cancer Awareness month. Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of cancer death in the United States, but it doesn’t have to be.Incidence in those younger than 50, or young-onset colorectal cancer, is on the rise. Among those under age 55, the incidence rate is increasing by 1.5% every year. According to the latest data, colorectal cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among men aged 20–49 years. Screening disparities are also evident among Black and Alaskan Native communities, which experience higher incidence and mortality rates. Colorectal cancer screening saves lives. Screening can find precancerous polyps—abnormal growths in the colon or rectum—that can be removed before they turn into cancer. Screening also helps find colorectal cancer at an early stage, when treatment works best. About nine out of every 10 people whose colorectal cancers are found early and treated appropriately are still alive five years later. If you are 45 years old or older, get screened now. If you think you may be at increased risk for colorectal cancer, speak with your doctor about when to begin screening, which test is right for you, and how often to get tested. BTW - since the recording of this episode, Brett received great news. Related: Mike's Cancer Story Welcome to season 3 of the MED podcast with Mike Perry and co-host, Brett Jones.

This past year, 2022, was an incredible year for the Minimum Effective Dose podcast. My good friend, Brett joined the podcast as a co-host and I could not be happier with how season 2 went.

In this episode we explore the principles and strategies for some of the more non-traditional programming styles. Mike and Brett discuss: Ascending ladders Descending ladders Strength aerobics Volume Density Work-to-rest ratios And much more! There are endless training methodologies that will yield positive results. It's excellent, but can be confusing. Working with too many moving parts when you're designing training programs can feel unstructured for the coach and the athlete(s).

One of the most common questions we get when it comes to training with kettlebells is about what size kettlebell to use. Quite often we see students going too heavy with kettlebell ballistics (e.g. clean, snatch, swing, jerk). Ballistic exercises are more dynamic than grinds (e.g squat, row, TGU, windmill) and work on the power generation and absorption in a dynamic fashion, If kettlebell swings are good, heavier must be better, right? Like many things, it depends! This episode is all about kettlebell ballistics and load selection. The MED team digs deep into the kettlebell swing and other kettlebell ballistics. Mike and Brett share valuable insight on technique, programming, optimizing your kettlebell ballistics. If you truly want to improve your training (or your client's training), perhaps it’s time to put your ego aside and train a little bit smarter.  Welcome to season 2 of the MED podcast with new co-host, Brett Jones.

The idea behind practicing mechanics first - jumping, landing, acceleration, deceleration mechanics The problem(s) with using box jumps, which are often misapplied, and how to correctly utilize this exercise Why power development sessions may need to be longer (plan on resting more than you're working) You'll come away from this episode with some in-depth strategies on how you can program power for youth athletes and also advanced athletes.

Join Brett and Mike to learn more about training strategies for mobility and hypermobility. Mobility is a hot topic these days and for good reason. When you live a sedentary lifestyle as so many are these days, you tend to lose your mobility. This is likely why you see countless systems promising to improve mobility currently being offered in the fitness industry. But what about individuals who have too much mobility? (Also referred to as hypermobility.)
