Proprioception. The ability to tell where your body is in space. We have receptors all over our body that provide this information. So if we all have it, why do some people seem to have it more?

Today we zoom in on a common symptom many runners have felt at some point. Anterior-Medial knee pain. For some it has only happened a few times in their career. For some it's immediate at every impact, others only at a certain fatigue or duration.

The ACL and other biomechanical details are included.

So many people are stuck at home. More than ever before. So many people have a lack of structure that actually makes it more challenging to relax and stay healthy. Keeping your mental health and physical health are one in the same. We have this time now to work on ourselves and our internal habits. Let's take advantage.

We've all got our own biases. We've all got those things that make us tick. Do we all use those things to improve a situation? I try too. I want to be more consistent than I am.

I was asked by an older friend recently to help her come up with some ways of using her protein powder. While some fitness fanatics are down to get their shaker bottle and chug for recovery, this was not her MO. Today I'm sharing a couple recipies I shared with her.

Pre-Corona vs Post-Corona, what will the difference be? Hopefully you.

What is your relationship with technology? Is that a weird question? Often, questions only seem weird if we're not used to encountering them. Time to bring the subconscious into our awareness. Are you okay with the results?

I was on edge, not sure if I should commit to it or not, then all the gym's closed. Then I knew. It was simple. Time to commit. I ordered myself a 15lbs steel mace to add to my home workout routine.
