Beyond Athletics is a podcast born out of the need to discuss the current and past states of athletics and life beyond athletics.

The mission of the podcast is to create a positive and healthy community through athletics, education, and conversation; the aim is to talk about the bigger picture for athletes with in-depth topics like finding one’s own tribe in the community of sports, uncovering truth and deception, understanding influence, health - both physical and mental - and emotional behaviors in our own humanity, coaching and mentoring in the modern world, using social media responsibly, designing long-term & short-term development in sports, adjusting to major disruptions, and much more.

Beyond Athletics is hosted by Chris Fluck, long-time multi-sport coach, owner and founder of Brickhouse Strength, and host of The Chris Fluck Podcast. With an extensive career in sports performance, personal coaching, and fitness, Fluck’s career has allowed him the opportunity to cultivate an unique perspective on the world, and there is no better time than now to start discussions about the direction, passion, systems, and influence of sports on athletes’ lives in the real world.

Beyond Athletics is produced by Chris Fluck and Chris Fiegel.
