About this listen

What if the secret to faster progress, fewer injuries, and stronger lifts wasn’t grinding harder—but learning how to let go?

In this game-changing episode, I sit down with DVRT creator Josh Henkin to unpack a concept that could transform the way you move: softness.

Yeah, we said it—softness.

But before you scroll past, hear us out: This is the kind of conversation that pulls back the curtain on why so many people hit plateaus, struggle with nagging aches, or never quite feel “connected” in their movements.


Josh and I explore:

Why “softness” is the shortcut to strength, not a detour

How you can move more efficiently without maxing out tension

The misunderstood role of grip and tension in kettlebell and Ultimate Sandbag training

Why most people struggle with internal cues—and how to finally “get it”

How this principle improves everything from overhead presses to single-leg balance and gait


If you're chasing strength, results, and longevity in your training, this episode delivers the clarity you’ve been missing.


Listen now and discover how doing less the right way can help you achieve more—faster.
