Cowboy feet need love too!

My summertime vaquero work is long gone but I started unpacking it as a Running Coach. Did you know that one day work as a cowpoke is equal to 25 to 40 miles a day as a runner?? Naboso Technology toe splays sooth tired feet almost immediately!

Cowboys need love too😉.

Just taking a moment to remember my Pop…

He didn’t move well late in life, so much of my focus is teaching others to tailor their workouts based on what they enjoy doing, if they want to do it forever.

I’ve helped people with planner challenges, knee, and hip replacements, and got them back running. That doesn’t mean it’ll work for everyone, BUT… if all the other conditions are right, I can get you back to doing what you love either Running, walking, or both!

Please remember the people that sacrificed themselves today to ensure our way of life❣️

This is great! I’ve been recommending for years that as you progress through your workout sessions that you add things like an exercise ball to say, Cable work moving from seated to kneeling to standing. You can also close your eyes during parts of your workouts. Even sitting on an exercise ball at home with your eyes closed will provide a lot of data on where your body thinks. It is in space.

I had no idea how truly important this was! !

Give it a try, just be careful

Happy Wednesday! If y’all know anything about me you know I dont make recommendations willy-nilly!

I met Brooke of Gritsportsnutrition fame at the beginning of my running career and she helped shape my focus on not just fueling for running, but for life. One class was all it took to shift my fueling paradigm forever!

If you want to truly understand how important fueling is for your body and what you can do to maximize longevity, look this woman up!

The next step is yours…

Creatine may affect not only muscles, but also mental health - and new research is beginning to show this.

A pilot randomized study published in Translational Psychiatry (2023) found that in women with Major Depressive Disorder and symptoms of anxiety, taking 5 g of creatine per day was associated with a reduction in anxiety levels.

What the researchers observed:

• reduced anxiety within the first week
• further improvement throughout the study
• a noticeable reduction in scores on clinical anxiety scales

Why this may work:

• creatine plays a role in the brain’s energy metabolism
• it helps increase the availability of ATP - the primary energy source for cells
• it may influence the function of the prefrontal cortex, which is involved in emotions and the stress response

What this means:

Creatine is not only a sports supplement for strength and muscle growth.

There is growing evidence that it may also influence cognitive and emotional processes.

However, it is important to consider the limitations:

• this was a pilot study with a small sample size
• the findings need to be confirmed in larger clinical trials
• creatine is not a replacement for treatment prescribed by a healthcare professional

The main takeaway:

The brain’s energy status is closely connected to mental well-being.

Creatine appears to be a promising area of research, but it is certainly not a “magic pill.”

***Please remember to start with a loading dose for six days before moving to a maintenance dose for not more than two months and then cycle off for at least a month after!

I was just having this conversation with the Running group this evening, how much stuff we get from the military and don’t even know it:

When most people feel stressed, they try to think their way out of it.

Elite military units often do something different.

They understand that intense stress isn’t just a mental state—it’s a biological one.

When cortisol and adrenaline surge, the body prepares for survival. The fastest way to recover isn’t always by forcing yourself to “calm down.” It’s by giving your nervous system clear signals that the threat has passed.

Research supports several techniques that can accelerate recovery after acute stress, including controlled breathing, physical movement, social connection, and adequate sleep. These approaches help shift the body out of a heightened stress response.

The goal isn’t to suppress stress.

It’s to help your body complete the stress cycle.

Your nervous system doesn’t listen to motivational speeches.

It listens to biology.

Sometimes the fastest way to feel better isn’t changing your thoughts. .

It’s changing what your body experiences next.
