Coach Glass Podcast

Trust your gut. Check your gut. Get a gut check! Today's episode is not for the faint of fart. We are going DEEEP into the colon and discussing how your gut health is a reflection of your overall health and wellness. All of my episodes are rated EXPLICIT. This one is rated R for ridiculously explicit. Im not apologizing to you if you listen and are offended. Sometimes you need to be vulgar to save...

You are creative. Yes you are! You don't have to be an artist or get paid for what you create to be creative. You think original thoughts and have the ability to create unique things if you would just get out of your own way and listen to that voice in your head. Not the one holding you back from sharing your latest blog, painting, mix tape or Instagram Reel. The one that says, "I want to see what...

Stop training and go play! This episode may anger you. We have been force-fed the notion that training is supposed to be hard and you can't ever stop or you will turn into a weak fat slob. If you are an athlete you need to train every day and constantly be getting faster stronger and more powerful. Grind it out! This is ridiculous. If you are always training, when do you get to enjoy the fruits of...

You are either injured or you are okay. Those are the only two states I give my athletes when they are competing. There is no grey. You are either 100% and focussed on competing at the highest level or you are injured. Injured means you are not practicing or playing. Simple as that. I know what you are thinking. "There is always grey Jason!" Not in the mind of a competitor who is putting their bod...

This weeks podcast will give you the tools to do the most important thing...START! We all have habits that we could change, improve upon or delete from our daily routines. Quitting cold turkey or enrolling the" all in or all out" approach simply does not work, t...

My wife and I have this thing. We call it the 'Executive Decision'. If one of us feels the need to plan something, buy something or do something out of the ordinary, the 'Executive Decision' is evoked. This is only performed if the decision is so important to the person delivering it, that there can be no disagreement or discussion on the matter. It will be done! Two weeks ago my wife unleashed th...

Systems matter! Im talkin about automating your life. You will accomplish more in your day if you have systems in place and you work the system. They need to be sculpted, massaged and altered from time to time but over all they should be on cruise control. If you don't know what I am talking about you probably don't have an effective routine, system or process. Start now! In this episode I give yo...

My kids are both graduating this year. One from college and one from high school. Graduation day isn't about the diploma or degree or the moonwalk across the stage to grab it. It is about the transformation you went through from the time you started your journey to the day you graduate. What are you graduating from? Right now! What are you working toward at this moment that you will illicit you th...

The Ying Yang of life says you must suffer to enjoy the absence of suffering. You need to lose to appreciate the joys of winning. You need to be thirsty to truly feel quenched. The further the extreme in one direction will create more space for the opposing experience to take place in the other. Live life to the max inside your personal boundaries. Each person has a different level of comfort and...

The PGA Tour is back in Canada for the RBC Canadian Open and it quickly becoming the ultimate test of golf skills. I love pressure cooker environments. They bring out the best and worst in people. They also allow you to assess your skills. Not only are the golfers tested but their coaches and support staff are tested as well. Perfect environment for learning. Boy did I learn a lot and have a ton o...

This week we lost an amazing woman who had a profound impact on my life. She was the matriarch of our family and the principles that she lived her life by have inspired generations. When people look for podcast episodes to listen to, they look for names they recognize in pop culture or experts on a topic of interest. You won't find Nell Glass on Instagram, Wikipedia, or any Google search engine. B...

Jealousy is seeing your unrealized dreams in others. Imposter Syndrome is trying to be someone you don't believe you deserve to be. Both of these make you look outside of yourself and compare what you see to your true self. You will only be jealous of things that you feel are attainable. You aren't going to be jealous of Bill Gates but you may be jealous of Bill in your office who got the promotio...

We want growth. We are hardwired to progress and move forward. Some of you are built to DreamBIG while others like to keep it safe and avoid change, but you still crave growth. This episode we go DEEEEP into the concept of adding friction to your life for the sake of growth. You cant grow without effort, stress and a little friction. Friction can create unwanted blisters which turn to calluses whi...

On the last episode I shared some personal feelings I was experiencing that I can only describe as the "Post" Covid Blues. A lack of drive, joy , and overall motivation to attack life. I knew that it was temporary but at the same time meaningful. Now that I am on the other side of this mental state I can share some perspective on not only what I was dealing with but more importantly how to get out...

This is not a regular Coach Glass Podcast. I wont judge you if you choose to skip this one. Its just the Coach talking about the post Covid blues. Lack of motivation hits me like waves on the California coastline. Some days its 6 foot over head and other days its a ripple in a puddle. When I think back to the grinder I was before the pandemic I realize my lifestyle wasn't sustainable. Working 10 h...

When you apply a stress to the body the body adapts. So thats what we do. We create programs that stress the body. The bigger the stress the bigger the adaptation. But what if instead of making exercises harder, we made them easier? What if you could produce the same amount of work with less effort? Wouldn't that make you a better athlete? As a strength coach I add resistance. As a performance coa...

Life is never black or white. We live in the grey. Rules however, need to be black and white. It is your job to decide where on the spectrum your actions will sit. We live in the greys and browns but judge others on the extremes. "Look at that asshole speeding past us like we are standing still!" while you are driving 15 over the limit. "I cant believe that person is not wearing a mask!" While you...

Would steroids help you play better golf? Isn't the idea of golf performance training to maximize power and speed? Every sport that requires maximal power and speed output has to watch for athletes cheating. Most common forms of performance enhancing drugs include anabolic steroids and growth hormone. Bigger, faster and stronger in a pill! So why would golf be any different? Anyone who has played...

Is your grip strength important? YES! Should you train for better grip strength? NO! Is GRF (Ground Reaction Force) the future of golf performance? NO! Is it valuable to measure it and is it trainable in the gym? YES! Do I have to listen to this episode to find out why? YES!!!! These are a just a few of the #YOJAY questions that have been blowing up my DM's. I thought that I would address these to...

Acquiring a new skill is one thing but mastery? What skill are you a true master of? Master chef, kung fu master, or a debate master? I know you practice often but to be a true master debater you need to push yourself outside of your comfort zone. I am a master coach, master at public speaking and master of my domain. Each of these skills took 20+ years of hard work and continually pushing myself...

Ohh you just want to be able to speak publicly without defecating in your trousers or throwing up on the front row of your audience? This podcast is for you.

Anything that is worth achieving requires sacrifice. It can be time, money, effort, security, or your sanity. The key is making the right goal and understanding the consequences and sacrifices it will take to acquire it. If you want to have a world class BBQ you need to marinate the meat first. Dry rub or vinegar based doesn't matter. It just needs the right ingredients for the right amount of tim...

Hi, my name is Jason Glass and I go by the pronoun COACH! What does it mean to you to be called Coach? Everything. You cant give yourself the name Coach you have to earn it. Like George Costanza trying to give himself the nickname "T-Bone". It just wont s

What motivates you to get up each morning and do what you do? Something is driving you to push yourself out of bed. What is it? Do you even know? Motivation is a tricky subject. What motivates you is very personal and unique to you. Some of you have very clearly defined goals and each day you take focussed steps to acquire your goal. Some of you just do it because you are simply use to doing it an...
