Ladies and gentlemen, we're back here today with Brent Lohmer, Founder of Brent Lohmer Personal Training, based out of the beautiful city of Winnipeg Manitoba. We got into everything, I mean - everything. Especially focused on athletic performance and how it can be shaped by external factors of our environment and the internal factors of our mindset. Brent shares his near-death experience and how that helped him shape up and get into what he's now doing to help others consider another perspective in an effort to be their best, every day. Heck man, we even hear him rip it up on Karaoke. You wanna dig in to this one, folks. We're going on a World Tour. Here's the highlights:

• Brent's battle with an eating disorder (4:21)
• The role of environment in performance (10:25)
• The power of thinking on the fly, aka The Brent & Mike show is going on tour (14:50)
• Consistency and mindset (17:16)
• The danger of an all or nothing mindset (22:25)
• The problem with "cheat meals" (27:47)
