Spiral of Leaders Podcast

From three trips to the point of rock bottom - physically, mentally, and finally spiritually to building a life and business worth talking about, my name is Isaac Wilkins, and I'm a student of fitness and performance training, mental toughness, and finding your purpose in this life. I share everything I learn about fitness, nutrition, higher purpose, mental toughness, and overcoming adversity so you can break free of your rut and win. This show is for former athletes, warriors, and those who have a vision and feeling inside them that they are able and destined for more. Regardless of your current situation and struggles, big or small, you have that drive to level up, winning, and getting the self-respect you desire. I share all of my most significant insights and clarity from my personal journey as well as lessons and strategies gleaned from my clients' journeys. I interview some of the most successful visionaries, celebrities, and thought leaders who've been to the wall and back.

023 - Quick Reframe for Staying on Track 0
Nov 26, 2022
Are you someone who does really well during the week but then struggles with consistency on the weekends? What about holidays, events, or travel? This time of year is a tough one for many people to stay on track with their fitness, nutrition, or other lifestyle habits. In this episode I go over a very simple mental shift that allows you to reframe that challenge and get back on track much more quickly.
022 - Building a Winning Identity 0
Nov 18, 2022
We are who we think we are... but it's deeper than that. More specifically, we're who our brain thinks that we are. See, our brain has an image in our mind of "us". It's our identity. This identity shapes how we do things and our decision-making. Your life is largely the result of your identity and how it led to your reactions and decisions. So what happens when we want to make a change? We can brute force it through willpower alone, but if we still identify as that former person we'll eventually slide back. The brain likes to be right, and it'll win in the end. So that means we need to change our identity to someone who lives the life that we want. In this podcast, I explain some of the first steps to doing that.
021 - Real Conditioning - Energy Systems 101 0
Nov 10, 2022

"Man, I gotta get in shape!"

What does that mean, exactly?

That's the problem with "conditioning", "endurance", and "being in shape".

We all know what we mean when we say it, and the other person knows what they think it is... but it's often not the same thing.

If you were an NFL lineman, you'd need to be in shape.

If you were a triathlete, you'd need to be in shape.

But those would look very different. That's where an understanding of how our body creates the energy that we need to move comes into play.

In this podcast I get into our three big energy systems, the fuel they use, and the considerations for how to train them to get the results you're actually looking for... so you can be in the shape and condition you need.
