Brett Jones Unpacks Kettlebells, Mobility Gaps and Nasal Breathing on Health is a Skill Podcast with Todd Vande Hei
07/22/2025, Beverly Hills California // KISS PR Brand Story PressWire // In the latest episode of Health is a Skill, Todd Vande Hei, CEO of Stark, explores what 'minimalist muscle' really means with Brett Jones, a StrongFirst Master Instructor renowned for bridging kettlebells with functional movement. Jones details how training just five kettlebell lifts, cleans, presses, squats, swings and Turkish get-ups continues to build his strength after decades in the industry. The secret? Jones 'minds the gap' by screening for hidden issues first. As a long-time Functional Movement Systems (FMS) educator, he begins with ankles, hips and the thoracic spine to find restrictions that quietly sabotage power and stability. 'When your hip stops, your back starts,' Jones says. 'If I can't rotate my T-spine or dorsiflex my ankle, my body will compensate, and that's where problems show up.' Jones outlines how his own severe hip impingements (FAI) forced him to become meticulous with warm-ups, from half-kneeling ankle drills to ribcage-focused T-spine rotations. He also credits nasal-only breathing at rest for balancing the nervous system. 'Most people are mouth breathing all day, stuck in fight-or-flight,' he explains. 'Nasal breathing restores parasympathetic tone, so your body can move better, lift better, and even digest better.' Listeners will also hear why minimalist shoes and barefoot sessions are game-changers for foot-to-glute strength, why high heels and rigid work boots require counter-mobility at day's end, and how Turkish Get-Ups act as 'insurance against falling.' Jones believes these ground-to-stand moves are foundational: 'The number one fear for many aging adults is falling. The second is not being able to get up.' The conversation wraps with practical takeaways: start with an FMS screen to see where your real gaps are, then layer in three core mobility drills—ankle dorsiflexion, hip runners' lunges, and T-spine 'bretzels.' 'Don't chase 150 random exercises,' Jones adds. 'Be brutally skilled at the basics. That's how you build resilient strength for life.' Find the full episode on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.

Transport safety stressed in stormy northern Thailand
Thai transport agencies are taking safety precautions and are ready to offer public assistance for any effects caused by Tropical Storm Wipha in northern Thailand, Transport Minister Suriya Jungrungreangkit said on Wednesday. The storm has weakened since moving in from Laos but has caused persistent heavy rain and flooding in some provinces in the North, according to the Meteorological Department. The key provinces affected are Nan, Chiang Rai and Phayao. Mr Suriya said the Department of Highways has set up warning and detour signs on affected roads and stationed security staff for 24 hours at points prone to floods and landslides, with machinery on standby for emergencies. The Department of Rural Roads was thoroughly inspecting roads and will alert the public to any damage through updates on its Flood Management System (FMS). The State Railway of Thailand, meanwhile, is cleaning and improving drainage systems. Safety checks on tracks, trains, signals and barriers are under way, along with a review of emergency response plans and temporary shelters for passengers. Chiang Mai Airport since Monday has opened a coordination centre with equipment and staff on hand in domestic passenger hall 1, according to Airports of Thailand. Airport staff are also holding daily situation assessment meetings at 9am. Parking for 250 vehicles is available for affected individuals. Mae Fah Luang Airport in Chiang Rai is also allowing free parking for flood-affected residents until Thursday. Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok remains unaffected, with normal flight operations. Passengers planning flights from Thailand to heavily affected areas, such as Hong Kong, Macau and Shenzhen, are advised to continuously check their flight status. In case of delays or cancellations, passengers are entitled to full refunds or flight changes, except for compensation due to unforeseeable external events, said the Civil Aviation Authority. Passengers who will be arriving in Thailand can check situation updates via websites of airports where they will be landing. Measures are in place to ensure flight safety and air traffic management, according to Aeronautical Radio of Thailand.

New college, solar plants and more: DU's 1,900cr push
New Delhi: From a new co-ed college in Fatehpur Beri to a university-wide IP surveillance system and major solar installations, Delhi University is in the midst of one of its biggest infrastructure pushes in recent years, with projects worth over Rs 1,900 crore, either approved or already under way. Key proposals were cleared by the finance committee and building committee in June, and are now before the executive council meeting, slated for July 12, for final approval. Among the most prominent plans is the Rs 272-crore academic building at DU's Fatehpur Beri land — set to house a new co-educational college. The vice-chancellor has been authorised to decide its name, according to the agenda item slated to be tabled for before the executive council. The college could be named after late BJP leader Sushma Swaraj. Other names, like Swami Vivekananda and Veer Savarkar have also surfaced in the past.

Also in the pipeline is a Rs 9.2-crore IP-based surveillance system, expected to go live by July 12, which will enhance campus security across DU's North and South Campuses. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Solar plants will be installed through the Renewable Energy Service Company (RESCO) model. PSU SECI will handle the work. Drainage upgrades are also being carried out at key buildings like the Sports Complex and Tutorial Block, with a stainless-steel stormwater system being added at the Rugby Sevens building. Other plans include a new cultural activity centre near Shankar Lal Hall (in-principle approval granted), new academic blocks for SP Jain and FMS at South Campus (Rs 24.6 crore), vertical expansion of Geetanjali Girls' Hostel and boys' hostels at Saramati and Aravali, and a new executive hostel/guest house and academic building at South Campus. Many of these works are being handled by Central Public Works Department (CPWD) and NBCC, with clear directions to avoid damage to existing trees. The university has also noted ongoing projects across various sites. These include, redevelopment of the vice-regal lodge (to be completed by Aug 31), drainage and retrofitting work at the Dhaka Complex, refurbishment of the convocation hall and Sir Shankar Lal Hall, classrooms and faculty rooms for the commerce department, and renovations at FMS and the zoology department. Under HEFA funding, DU has secured allocations for several new buildings, including Rs 195.6 crore for a Faculty of Technology block, Rs 161 crore for a new girls' hostel at the Dhaka complex, and Rs 120 crore for an academic building at Surajmal Vihar. However, progress on some of these projects remains slow. Physical progress on many remains below 10%. The scale of activity has prompted the university to form a high-level project monitoring committee headed by Prof. Balaram Pani, which is required to inspect all sites at least twice before the next Building Committee meeting.
