Patrick Williamson and I sat down at Innova Coffee to discuss hydration tablets. While the majority of hydration can be solved by drinking when you are thirsty, electrolyte supplementation is a key focus when running for longer than 60 minutes or when active recovery is required during high volume training programs.

On this Coffee Convo Sam and I discuss a time when someone told him to stop doing something. In the world of Physical Therapy this is often the case when pain or dysfunction are present. Instead of having a health care provider in their corner to help you move better with the specific pain point, patients often get the advice to just stop doing that thing.
Sam talks about a different experience with this advice, but it is applicable all the same. We all want to be the hero. But finding OUR place in the larger story is often more valuable not only to ourselves but also to those around us.

GYM STUFF #020 - Knee Sleeves

Because rarely in life do you get the opportunity to stop and prepare to move, much less pull on a pair of knee sleeves. Enjoy movement, perform with or without them.

GYM STUFF #019 - Altitude Masks
•
As coaches wear masks for an indefinite time it makes me think of altitude masks. These masks make things more tough but you don’t really need them... well not as advertised anyway.

Generally speaking you need fuel to allow for a hard workout and you need fuel to recover from that hard workout. After that it’s just the secret “PICO” sauce.

Before you dive headlong into treating an issue you need to be sure that’s what needs to be specifically addressed. And that I needs to be addressed in that particular way over any other option.

Coffee Convo with a fraternity brother and two wheeled enthusiast, John Mooney, where we talk about Sleep!
John and I talk through sleep especially as it relates to his training and competition as a category 2 cyclist. I wanted to talk about sleep particularly with John because he is a new dad and wanted to know if that was impacting his ability to recover via sleep with his training.

I’ve been interested in Steve’s Functional Range Conditioning certification for a while now but was never able to attend any of his workshops... and this podcast was no different. Nonetheless, I enjoyed getting to know Steve’s background a little better and to know his own personal bias behind getting you to move in the safest and most optimal way. Oh, and there is a little secret he confesses as well - let’s just say it has to do with tights. Connect with Steve through his Instagram @steve_mares13
