😴 Why Sleep Matters 😴
“When you sleep your brain removes toxic proteins from its neurons that are by-products of neural activity when you’re awake. The problem is that the brain can only remove them properly when you are sleeping. If you don’t sleep enough the toxic proteins stay in your brain cells, which will severely impair your ability to think clearly”.
Caffeine and skipping meals reduce serotonin, the precursor for melatonin (the sleep hormone). Skipping breakfast at the start of your day can also disrupt blood sugar levels for the day & in turn disrupt sleep.
Ensure adequate daily intake of proteins, carbohydrates and water to assist sleep.

If you’re not sleeping, you’re not repairing, without the repair state, you’re not able to reduce inflammation.
👎🏻You’ll feel crappy & lethargic with poor memory, low energy & out of whack hormones. ☕️ No amount of caffeine will fix this!
Your circadian rhythm (which is basically your sleep wake cycles) is crucial to hormonal health.
If your circadian cycle is out of rhythm it can affect many things:
👎🏻Your ability to recover from training > build lean muscle tissue and reduce body fat
👎🏻Increased injuries: poor sleep patterns lead to joint inflammation
👎🏻Appetite and mood: having a crap night’s sleep will actually make you eat MORE & crave sugary foods
👎🏻Your concentration, focus & memory
👎🏻Irregular menstrual cycles & PMS symptoms
👎🏻Poor skin & detoxification

Spinal stability and pelvic control is a requirement before any high speed rotational work. 

Dynamic multi plane and rotational training is a great way to progress core movements for runners, golfers, surfers and or any other dynamic sports requiring rotation plane movements. Hint: We use rotation every step you are walking!

It’s worth noting that a big chunk of pre-dynamic movements it is extremely important to develop intrinsic core control.  This basically means you need to have the “inner-unit” of the core functioning very well, before working on the fast and fancy core training.  

Send me a DM and I will get in touch with. Free ebook outlining the inner unit and how to effectively train it for readied pain and increased function!

Why does it always matter to us what we used to weigh, measure, what we’ve lost, what we’ve gained, how far we’ve come, how far we have to go...? KPI’s, Point A to Point B, measurements, achievements, failures, deadlines, rewards, punishments, numerical values....it all keeps us aligned with left brain, logical, stuff & noise, and locked in the past, doesn’t it? And WHAT does it all matter when the bottom line is HOW YOU FEEL, RIGHT NOW, IN THE SKIN YOU’RE IN.
I challenge you to think about a time you felt GREAT in your body, & I’m confident I could guarantee it wasn’t the number on the scales or the size pants you were wearing that made you feel great, it was the level of time, energy and love you showed your body through your daily choices ❤️

Most runners & high capacity athletes/competitors focus on “core training,” but few truly understand the abdominal wall’s role in performance and spinal health. As a CHEK trained coach, I assess and condition the core systematically teaching my client’s & athletes how overused muscle groups can create hidden compensations and leave key stabilizers underdeveloped. When we learn to engage and balance the abdominal wall correctly, they not only protect their spine but unlock more efficient movement, strength, and longevity on the track 💨🏃🏻‍♂️👟

My Big 4 Hacks Reducing Inflammation & Boosting Your Immune System

1. Heal your gut.
Your gut is the gateway to health, and 80% of your immune system is located in your gut. Make sure your gut is in tip-top shape and take a high quality, multi-strain probiotic with at least 25 billion units.

2. Reduce alcohol and refined sugar consumption.
Even moderate alcohol consumption suppresses the central nervous system, and therefore your immune system. Consuming too much sugar can suppress the immune system and make it more difficult for your body to fight off infections like the flu. Alcohol will also cause you to overeat and beat up your hormones causing weight gain!

3. Reduce your stress.
Stress is known to suppress our immune systems. Consider meditation, Tai Chi, or acupuncture for additional relaxation techniques.

4. Get to bed early throughout the shorter days in our year.
Your body relies on sleep to recuperate from daily exposure to toxins. Chronic sleep deprivation can significantly reduce immune function and cause inflammation in the body.

You have one life, live it to its best capacity. Don’t trash it
