After years of working with golfers, here’s one constant I’ve learned… I know you’re over-complicating things. The reason I know that? Everybody does it. Including me, the trainer who does this for a living. Today, let’s take a step back and tattoo this on our foreheads: Simple, Not Easy. Sooo...
My cousin’s son just started his high school soccer career two weeks ago. After 5 games, he has 2 goals and 6 assists. So, you can confidently say he came outta the gate quickly. Is that pace sustainable? Not sure, but it’s great. Now when it comes to our fitness,...
My cousin and our co-founder Ryan lives in a municipality here in St. Louis called Sunset Hills. And it is appropriately named. Unlike our parents who impossibly walked up hill both ways to school, his trips are a battle of down hill trips one direction, then up hill on the...
So, it’s almost fall which means the bluegrass is starting to explode out of the ground, and repair the fairways from a brutally dry summer here in St. Louis. Our co-founder Ryan is an absolute nut when it comes to his lawn - it looks like a fairway. If he’s...

We took a little break on Friday, so let’s wrap up our series about the sneaky, yet super-common things that derail our fitness.

It’s the same one that puts...

On Netflix, there is a sports documentary series called All or Nothing that covers a the entire season of teams in the Premier League, NFL, college football, NHL, and I believe the All Blacks rugby team. The crux of each season is that team is slated to win their respective...
Tomorrow, the Solheim Cup begins for the gals, and the pressure is on the Americans to win this thing so they don’t set the record of losing four in a row. It’s pretty entertaining if you like to watch golf…and I think you might. While the ladies are closing out...
Good morning, my fellow lean, mean, injury-prevention machine. Tonight, Monday Night Football has Aaron Rodgers making his comeback from his ruptured Achilles. It’s weird because he did it last year on the first MNF game of the season. Hopefully, he’s not too superstitious. I’ve seen many a ruptured Achilles going...
