Joel returns to hosting duties for our fortieth Q&A Session. In this episode Joel sits down with physiotherapist and movement expert Carel Wildenboer from The Activation Clinic to get a better understanding of his alternative approach. We hear how Carel identifies compensation movement patterns in his clients, and learn his process to change these, allowing clients to move better, breathe easier and perform optimally with reduced injury risk. Joel shares his personal experience working with Carel as the pair discuss the important relationship between the physical body and the mind.

Episode #46 is brought to you by Sydney Marathon:Brett & Joel sit down with one of Australia's biggest middle distance talents, Abbey Caldwell. After being controversially left off the World Championship 1500m team in Oregon last year, Abbey fought her way to a Commonwealth Games bronze medal in the same event just a few weeks later. We hear about Abbey's humble beginnings in the sport, her transition into high-performance and what a typical training week looks like. The interview will be released in two parts. In regular programming, Brett cracks 200kms for the week and Joel proves that last week's 100+ kms wasn't just a fluke.

In this week’s Q&A, Dave McNeill survives another week in the hosting chair, and is back this week talking to Samantha Culbert - the meet director of the very successful Maurie Plant Track Meet, held 3 weeks ago. The pair discuss what goes into putting on a world class track meet, how you get International stars like Fred Kerley and Emma Coburn to the start lines, and where the money comes from, and where the money goes in such big meets.
