them. when i was a little kid, i knew i had something special because i would run and beat all my classmates by far. then i'd tell them to get on their bicycle and i'd still be on foot, and i still would beat them while they're on their bikes. i became the student of my own sport. you know, i had to make sure i win, watch highlight tapes of dennis, watch carl lewis michael johnson, those guys, and basically combine that and made who i am today -- a better runner, a smarter runner. >> justin gatlin. >> you're going into all different kind of environments all the time. i'm in jamaica right now. the next one.

my lower back was what was really bothering me. you know, it just grueling just trying to get going in the morning. and i was gonna quit riding. >> a guy of his age shouldn't be riding bucking horses at the level that he's at now. the last year, he has really shined. >> it's fun for me now. it has been this whole year. >> he is our copper cowboy -- shawn minor. >> for him to come in here and easily walk away as the ifr 44 champion in the bareback riding, it's got to be something. >> when i'm done riding bucking horses, my day job begins. running a ranch is just as painful as rodeo. my routine is first thing in the morning, i put the shirt and shorts on. i wear tommie copper's compression on all of my joints all day long. it loosens me up. basically, i have it on every day. i guess i should sleep in it.

every other single person does. >> being injured, as an athlete, is just par for the course. i've been suffering from an injury for about six months. it has been the most emotional journey i've ever been on in my life because you realize what the sport means to you. because it's part of my soul and when i don't have it, i don't know how to function in life. it's been a really hard time. i'm working through it, and i'm getting better, and i'm now finding joy in passing what i've experienced to others. that's why i created braveheart coaching. this isn't about winning races or getting on the podium. it's really to mentor them, to help them fulfill their dreams.

>> lesley really introduced me to how i can be a triathlete. >> she learned what my weaknesses were, what my strengths were, and how we can adapt them to just be a better all-around triathlete. >> and i do believe in marginal gains. that's a huge part of how i train, so every little thing counts. wearing my tights every night to bed counts. every little positive increment you can get to make your body feel better is essential. >> it takes five seconds to throw on recovery tights or recovery socks and head to work. nobody knows i have them on, but all day, i'm getting that recovery process going. >> i get into compression as soon as i can. so it's been very essential for me. >> that's an easy recovery. they'll do whatever it takes to get that little bit of an edge. >> team braveheart is not necessarily about winning races or getting on the podium. it's been about excellence and the way that they live their lives.

the day of the race or an intense training, i put my tommie copper gear on and assume a fierce character. it's important that the compression and exercise gear look as good as it performs. i love the support they give me, and the performance line has so many bright colors to fit my mood or match my outfit. u.v. sun protection and moisture wicking is crucial when i'm training 12 hours a day in the california sun. so is compression. it helps stabilize muscles reduce lactic-acid buildup, keep me going the extra mile. when it gets cold out, i switch into the agility compression tights and the agility mock neck. they keep my muscles warm and loose. the finger holes keep my hands protected, too. i've used a lot of different methods to help rejuvenate my body after a competition. but tommie copper's different. it all combines to make something truly unique. i'll never give it up. >> announcer: view the entire range of performance gear and recovery wear by calling the

'cause they're gonna fight they're gonna play for one another. anytime you can put team first the more success you have on the field. >> winning is always the goal,

throughout the game. so that helps them stay fresh and stay stronger for a whole game. >> you know, in baseball injury's a part of the game. that's what happens. you can't prevent some injuries. and we wanted every opportunity to figure out, "how can i keep my elbow as good as i can keep it?" >> these guys play at a high level. these kids all have d1 aspirations. the goal is states every year. these guys -- they come to american heritage having that dream, knowing that this team has these capabilities, and that's the goal we set for them every year. as it comes down to everything you know, it depends on them. once the lights turn on, are the stars gonna show up? is our pitcher gonna be the best she can be? or is our offense gonna be the best on the day? is our defense gonna be best on the day? so when the lights go on, the superstars need to come out. >> most coaches will tell you,

and is safer than any cooktop. best of all, the nuwave is the only portable cooktop that gives you precise temperature control with the simple press of a button. professional chefs create great-tasting meals by maintaining the precise temperature for the perfect amount of time. well, now you can get professional results too with the nuwave precision induction cooktop. >> the key to great food is knowing how to control the temperatures of what you're cooking. >> now the p.i.c. is allowing people at home to cook like you can in a restaurant. >> i know that when i turn it on that temperature, it's going to be that temperature. there's no guessing. >> announcer: not only does the nuwave give you precise temperature control, it heats up twice as fast as an electric cooktop. >> i put the water in the pan and turned around and the next thing i knew, it was boiling. >> what amazes me about p.i.c. is how quickly it will heat up. induction technology is just unbelievable. >> announcer: and because there's no flame to catch fire no hot coils to burn you the nuwave precision induction cooktop is the safest cooktop ever invented. look what happens with this egg:

the pan is hot, but the cooktop is not. that's the magic of induction cooking. make pasta in half the time. melt butter with no chance of it burning. melt chocolate to creamy perfection. make sauces with perfect temperature control. >> it's small, it's efficient, it's clean and it's safe. >> announcer: and because it's portable, you can take it anywhere, so it's perfect for buffets and outdoor parties. to tell you more, let's join bob warden and jenny rko at the nuwave test kitchen in chicago. >> let me ask you, do you hate boil-overs and the mess they make in the kitchen? do you hate burnt grilled cheese sandwiches or shriveled-up bacon? >> what about over-fried chicken that's all greasy, or dried-out oatmeal, overdone pork chops or charred steak? >> well, what if i was to tell you that instead, you could now have perfect grilled cheese sandwiches, perfectly browned evenly every single time? >> all that cheese is melted in there, so delicious. >> perfectly melted. and i could have perfectly grilled steaks set at

350 degrees that give me a perfect medium rare steak or however you like it and it's never going to burn. perfect pork chops, and not only pork chops... >> right, salmon grilled vegetables, sausage, perfect every time. >> what if i told you, when you fried your chicken, it was going to be fried at the perfect temperature of 375, gently perfectly, crispy, never soaking up too much oil. >> that's hard to do. >> in fact, that's the problem with the old stovetops whether it's gas or electric-- you can turn it up and down, but because you don't have precise control, you're going to get boil-overs. because you don't have precise control, you're going to burn the cereal on the bottom from time to time. and because you don't have precise temperature control, you can't help but burn a steak or a pork chop on your stove. you see, you're not the bad cook in the kitchen. the stovetop is the bad cook in the kitchen. >> that's right, and those days of bad cooking are over, thanks to the fine folks here at nuwave, makers of the number-one-selling countertop oven in the world. >> well, they've done it again.

you're looking at the new wave in stovetop cooking. now, this ingenious invention will make your life a whole lot easier in the kitchen and a whole lot shorter and a lot more fun. we're going to show you how and why every meal-- breakfast snacks, lunch, dinner, grilled steaks, fondues and buffets-- will be made perfectly every time. because now, for the first time, you can precisely control the cooking temperature. >> announcer: now you can live well for less with the nuwave precision induction cooktop. it's the most energy-efficient way to cook. the nuwave p.i.c. uses induction technology. the secret is an internal series of copper coils. these coils generate a magnetic field within your metal pots and pans. the magnetic field causes invisible molecules to begin vibrating rapidly, creating heat, so the cookware itself heats the food. >> one of my passions are butter sauces. and one of the challenges of cooking a butter sauce is that

if you get it too hot, you know, over 135 degrees it breaks down. if you get it too cool it congeals. the beauty of the nuwave p.i.c. is that i can control the temperature exactly and keep the sauce for an extended period of time. that's such an added bonus for a professional cook and a home cook. >> let me show you this unusual pan. bob, what did we do here? >> well, we actually cut a pan and cut a section out, because in here you can see we have cereal rapidly boiling, right? >> boiling away. >> i can put my hand right there. >> it's amazing. move your hand. i'm going to put an ice cube right there. it's not melting. >> because all of the energy is going into cooking your food. there's nothing wasted anywhere outside of the pan, so this is perfectly cool. so wipe that ice cube off there. >> o.k., i've got a cloth right here. watch this, i'll take this ice cube, wipe it up. i'm using a paper towel on a burner. there's no fire, there's no flame, so it's so safe. >> and the minute you put the pan back on it starts boiling right again. >> wow. >> now, because we're cooking

without fire, jenny, i'm going to take a sheet of play money and put it between the p.i.c. and the pan. instantly it starts boiling again. >> have you ever seen anything like that? cooking through paper? >> so now we're cooking far more efficiently, we're saving 40- to 50% of the energy. >> right. >> isn't that amazing? >> announcer: seeing is believing. look what happened when the nuwave p.i.c. was put to the test on the streets of san francisco. >> all right, this is gonna blow your mind. this is the precision induction cooktop, and it is portable, eco-friendly and it saves you a lot of money, saves you a lot of time. >> wow. >> cooking time is cut in half. do you see that the water's boiling there? >> yeah. >> the great thing about induction cooking is it only heats the part of the pot that is magnetic, so everything else stays cool, so watch this. ah! [group exclaims] o.k., everybody, put your hands on it. >> isn't it hot? >> no, it just heats the magnetic part of the pot. this is at 110. you can leave it at 110 and it won't get gloppy, it won't get stale, it won't harden.

>> and you don't have to be a big chef to cook. like, i don't have time to cook. this would be great. >> exactly-- this makes you look like an actual good chef. it's temperature-controlled, so i pop my fried chicken right in there and i know exactly what temperature it's at, and you know if you go down one, 10 degrees, boom, drops just like that. can you do that on a gas range? >> absolutely not. >> no. >> not at all. >> this is temperature-controlled so you don't overcook it, you don't undercook it. >> i love the temperature control-- that can cook meat without drying it out. >> man: mmm! >> that's amazing! >> what do you think? >> nice and crispy. >> you can fry, you can simmer you can steam, you can fondue, you can do everything with this-- i love it. >> it's amazing-- i've never seen anything like it. >> i love that if you take the top... the pot off of the top, it stops and that the handles were cool. that's really amazing. >> and you know what the great thing is, you guys? it's portable. you can take this whole thing over to the table, plop it down and it will stay at 110 right in the middle of your guests and you can dip all day. dip, dip, dip, everybody dip. and the best part about it? you can grill on the table. >> man: oh... >> what do you think about that?

>> mmm... >> so it's raining outside it's the middle of winter, you still get grilled food. will it change the way you cook at home? >> group: yes. >> the p.i.c. makes everything so simple. >> it looks like you ordered it from a restaurant. >> it does look like i ordered it from a restaurant. that's because i'm a good cook now with the p.i.c.

[♪...] >> well, so far we've been showing you what you can do when you can precisely control low temperatures, like for perfectly melting chocolate or for simmering cereal. >> but, everybody loves a great steak and everyone hates it when their steak does not come out just the way they like it. but with the nuwave p.i.c.

because it comes with precision temperature control, you won't ever undercook or overcook that steak. >> for grilling, use this great cast-iron barbecue grill pan that can come with your p.i.c. now, if you like your steak rare, check this out. it's going to be red and juicy on the inside, but perfectly brown on the outside. if you like it well done it's not going to be burned on the outside, but it's going to be perfectly well done on the inside-- how? because the p.i.c. gives you perfect temperature control. look at this: first i seared it to 575, now i've reduced the p.i.c. to 375 and check out this laser thermometer-- exactly 375 degrees. >> check out how 375 degrees gives us those great grill marks without burning or charring. >> and you know what i like with my steak? >> i know. >> a perfectly baked potato, which i can do right here in my nuwave oven in minutes. >> or if you like my favorite thing, sweet potato fries. whatever you make in the nuwave,

it comes out perfect every time. [chuckles] >> announcer: according to the u.s. department of energy, 50 cents of every dollar you spend heating up your gas or electric stove is wasted. but not so with your nuwave p.i.c., because it uses induction technology. this infrared camera shows how a traditional cooktop heats the area all around the pot. but look how the nuwave p.i.c. heats up only the pot. this means no more wasted energy. >> i love that i'm saving energy, that i'm only heating up the bottom surface of the pot where i need the heat to be, and i really think we're seeing the difference in our electric bills, and i love that. >> one of the best things about the nuwave precision induction cooktop is it's portable. i can take it anywhere, i don't have to leave it in the kitchen. so i'll take it into my dining room and i'll set up my own egg station, so when i have visitors-- especially my family-- i can cook my own omelets, they can cook their own omelets, they can cook their eggs, they can cook pancakes and it's just this simple because

i've got precise temperature control. and look how beautifully non-stick this is. all i have to do to make the omelet is tip it, the omelet runs back. i tip it again, it runs back. i'm going to be able to fill this up. so everybody can have whatever filling they like. i always like to have some mushrooms, some cheese some peppers... >> and you know i like the healthy spinach, bob. >> ohh... >> i just ruined his omelet. >> [laughs] well, with the perfect green fry pan, we just simply fold that over, it's going to continue to cook while it's in the pan. i fold that out and look at this: my pan is clean, i'm ready to cook another omelet again. >> the heating is consistent so i can set up a buffet with four or five of these and have different temperatures that are going to maintain. i think one of the biggest complaints is that sometimes the last people that go through the buffet, they get the cold food, and with the p.i.c., the food stays warm through the entire event and the guests really appreciate that as does the host and hostess. >> announcer: introducing the revolutionary precision induction cooktop from nuwave,

constant correct temperature. it's like having a professional chef cooking for you. the result: no more mistakes no more burning. >> it takes the human error out of cooking. there's no more guesswork in what temperature you're cooking at. it's very easy to just set the temperature at the touch of your fingertips. you can go up 10 degrees 20 degrees, 30 degrees. in a matter of seconds you're at that temperature. it's going to be perfect every time. >> now we'd like to talk about the perfect temperature to fry chicken. now, up to now we've been talking about what you can do when you have precise temperature control on low temperatures, like with chocolate, right? look at that, jenny. that's been in there for hours it's still not sticking, it's still the perfect perfect creamy texture. >> did you taste it? >> i know, it's almost unbelievable, isn't it? >> delicious. oh, and then we went to high-temperature searing. so with the push of a button we got this to 575 degrees seared the steaks, then we brought it down to 350 and we have beautiful grilled sausages, pork chops, salmon, even those grilled vegetables-- they were good too. >> well, frying temperature is

375 degrees, especially when you're using vegetable oil. we want to hold that perfect temperature, so lookit here. we have a probe in here, we set this to 375 degrees. it says 375 degrees. our chicken is frying gently it's not going to burn. >> here on my burner-- it's a typical electric coil under here... >> i can see jenny's been cooking over here. >> this is what happens. it's not safe. and not only is it not safe, i have no idea what the temperature is-- i'm just guessing. >> when you get that really good fried chicken at one of those fast food chicken places it's because they have a very expensive deep fryer they've set it at 375 degrees, they can use that oil all day long without it burning. well, now you have that precise control at home with the precision induction cooker. let me give you an example. in the test kitchen, we cooked over 200 pieces of chicken and this is what the oil looked like. >> it looks like it just came out of the bottle. >> and this is breaded chicken, right? here we cooked just 20 pieces of chicken on a gas stove same results would have been on an electric stove-- you'd guess. you set it someplace between medium and medium-high you don't know.

the minute it smokes, it's gone, it's ruined. that's typically what happens. you have to throw the oil away. >> yeah. well, that gets expensive. >> announcer: third-party analysis shows the advantage of nuwave's precise temperature control versus conventional stovetops. oil cooked with an electric stove contained 45% more saturated fat. oil cooked with a gas stove contained 10 times more transfatty acids. oil cooked with an electric stove contained over 90% more cholesterol than oil cooked with the precision induction cooktop. now some of your favorite foods can be healthier with the nuwave precision induction cooktop. >> when you're cooking with frying foods, you're, um you're trying to keep that temperature high so the grease doesn't get in the food, where you're not ending up with greasy chicken or greasy fish. and with the precision induction cooktop, i was able to master frying that chicken perfectly. >> announcer: the nuwave p.i.c. has been tested and recommended by the cooking club of america and is the safest cooktop

ever invented. every 85 seconds a fire strikes a home in america, and most often, that fire starts in the kitchen. >> my very, very first fire was a 16-year-old kid who was cooking french fries on the stove and he forgot about them and he burned his parents' entire house down. >> announcer: well, that will never happen with the nuwave p.i.c. there is no open flame no red-hot electric coil to catch fire and as soon as a pot is removed from the nuwave the conduction of heat stops. >> the safety features of the p.i.c. impressed me so much that i'm going to send one to my mother. she's getting a bit elderly and forgetful and i'm always a bit worried that she might start a fire and the p.i.c.'s going to eliminate that problem. >> during our show, we've showed you what a difference the nuwave precision induction cooktop can make in your cooking. whether you're cooking breakfast or snacks. >> jenny: lunch, dinner, hors d'oeuvres. >> whether you're grilling or griddling, when you have precise temperature control, it can make all the difference. >> whether you're searing at high temperatures... >> or whether you're having

precise temperature control at only 110 or 20 degrees for perfect chocolate, you have got it. in 10 degrees intervals you can go from 120 to 130 to 140, all the way up to 575 degrees, which you can never get with your stovetop-- you're always just guessing. so to sum it up, what do you get with the nuwave precision cooktop? you get, first of all, speed-- it heats up really fast. >> and safety. there's no red-hot coil or open flame. >> and you get precise temperature control that you can never get with your old electric burner or gas stove. and you save... >> both: money. >> so, here's how you can get your nuwave precision induction cooktop right now. >> announcer: introducing the revolutionary precision induction cooktop from nuwave, the leader in portable induction cooking technology. the nuwave heats up twice as fast, uses up to 70% less energy and is safer than any cooktop. best of all, the nuwave is the only portable cooktop that gives you precise
