Faster decisions = more action = more learning

It’s a sunny, “314 Day” here in St. Louis (that’s our area code).  Tomorrow is our Downtown St. Patty’s Day Parade.  Monday is the “real” St. Patty’s Day.  So, we have an embarrassment of riches of activities.  My only decision is, “Where will we have the most fun?”  Not sure...

“I want to get fit. Now what?”

This year for Lent, instead of giving up something, our co-founder Ryan decided he was going to do something everyday from now until Easter.  He chose to do 100 push-ups every day.  It’s not going well.  “I don’t remember to do them until the next day. We forget how difficult...

If it sounds overwhelming, don’t do it.

Okay, so today is the last day to take advantage of the Hyper-Elastic Distance training program (and Hyper-Elastic Mobility BONUS).  We’re putting them in the membership tonight where they will stay for the foreseeable future.  But, before you pull the trigger, let’s take a step back.  My fear is that you are a part...

This past election cycle, sports betting became legal here in Missouri.  It hasn’t started yet, but it’s coming shortly.  For me, I’ll happily do our fantasy golf on Draft Kings for the majors this year.  But, it stops there.  I’m no good at predicting the outcomes of most sporting events,...

28,000+ steps of lunacy

View in Web Browser4.5 mile trail hike with our bags. 18 holes walking. 40 degrees. 28,000 steps. Lots of misread distancesThat is how a small group of us spent last Saturday.  We’ve been talking about Hyper-Elastic Distance all week, so let’s take a step back and remember why us golfers want to stay fit. When I threw out...

Less effort. More distance.

Lately, I’ve been tinkering with my swing. I’d like to get the magical place where I don’t swing as hard, but get more distance.  Obviously, that sounds counterintuitive, but us golfers know how the ball jumps off your club when you flush one.  If sounds so cliché’, but it really is a case...

Get up or give up?

Today is the first day of high school tryouts for spring sports here in St. Louis.  Of course, golf is one of those sports.  And yesterday we were enjoying a few cold ones on the patio on the #1 tee after our round watching a ton of high school kids...

Distance by Addition by Subtraction

Unlike commas (the subject of this email), we often experience huge breakthroughs by simply eliminating things.  That can be especially true with our fitness…  Subtraction can lead to massive breakthroughs.  For example, Remove habits that disrupt your sleep, like screen time or caffeine too close to bedtime. Remove exercises that...
