Listen "Interview Reflections, Habit Stacking and a Stretching Challenge!"
Episode Synopsis
What to listen for:Today, Stacy, Robin, and Crystal reflect on their biggest takeaways from speaking with previous guests Liz Joyce, Bobby Lyons, and Melissa Stagnaro, where everything from self-care to physical fitness to search-and-rescue sport was covered.Listen in as our hosts highlight the value of making incremental progress in our fitness and skill development, and how the right coach can help us instill the habits we need to maintain our progression plan.Crystal talks about her journey to overcoming stress eating and how paying attention to her own body during training translates into how she assesses her dogs’ movements and behaviors. She also discusses the importance of taking the pressure off of yourself and your dog, and why search-and-rescue sport is a great demonstration of the power of fun training sessions.Finally, they share how just three minutes of stretching a day results in a domino effect that allows you to grow holistically in your physical fitness and capabilities as a trainer.Key Topics:Habit stacking, “feeling” progress, and having a driving force behind the habit (04:05)The importance of having the right coach at the right time (07:12)Body awareness (12:21)Getting your nutrition in order (16:10)Training alongside your dog (24:37)Compensating for physical limitations (28:44)Taking the pressure off (38:16)Helping your dog feel more confident in themselves (49:00)Resources from Bobbie’s Episode:Pawsitive Performance (where you can go to book private sessions with Bobbie)Bobbie Lyon's Canine CampusBobbie's Personal FB PageBobbie's Border Collie Litter groupBobbie's FB GroupResources from Melissa’s Episode:Learn more about ARSA at www.searchandrescuesport.org23rd IRO World Championship for Search and Rescue Dogs (video)Resources from Liz’s Episode:CanineHandlerFitness.com (free webinar & resources here!)Canine Handler Fitness on Instagram Canine Handler Fitness on FacebookK9 Detection Collaborative Past Episodes:Episode 56: Talking K9 Fitness with Bobbie LyonsEpisode 55: Talking Search and Rescue Sport with Melissa StagnaroEpisode 54: Canine Handler Fitness with Liz JoyceWe want to hear from you:Check out the K9 Detection Collaborative FB page and comment on the episode post!You can follow us for notifications of upcoming episodes, find us at k9detectioncollaborative.com to enjoy the freebies and tell your friends so you can keep the conversations going.
