    MiST with Iron Gump
    May 21 2024
    Iron Gump joins Craig Constantine to share how meditative strength training bridges the gap between physical exertion and mindful awareness. "This is what you were talking about earlier. The meditative aspect. What I call it is meditative strength training (MiST). The meditative aspect is developing the awareness as you move, and then maintaining that awareness as you move.
