Some days, you’re running late for gym or work. Maybe for both. Cooking? Forget it. That’s when high protein fast food options come in. I don’t know how many times I’ve driven by that situation. I promise you that not all fast food is dangerous for you. If you know which ones to pick, some…
I’ve been working with seafood and meal plans for years, and scallops still surprise people. Whenever people ask me, “Are scallops good for you?” I tell them this is one of the cleanest proteins you can eat. When we are discussing Scallops Nutrition, we are not just promoting a “superfood.” We are discussing about actual,…
So what is Krav Maga? You’ve probably heard the name tossed around in gyms or in movies where some character fights off bad guys with brutal efficiency. It’s not a traditional martial art. It’s not about showing off forms or earning belts through pretty kicks. Krav Maga is practical. Direct. Made for survival, not sport….
Start here: why listen to me? I’ve coached and played lacrosse for over a decade. College club. High school varsity. Summer leagues where the score is “who brought the cooler.” If you want to know how to play lacrosse and not look lost, I’ve got you. We’ll keep it simple—stick, ball, cradling, passing, shooting, ground…
Quick hit: I’ve spent over 10 years coaching, scouting, and arguing on the sidelines about basketball positions. If you’re trying to understand how point guards, shooting guards, small forwards, power forwards, and centers actually work together, you’re in the right place. Yes, I’ve got opinions. And a few scars from pick-and-rolls gone wrong. What each…
As a coach and former gymnast who’s tracked height charts for 12+ years, here’s my honest answer to “does gymnastics stunt your growth.” No. Genetics and food matter way more than chalk. Growth plates? Fine if training is smart. Puberty timing varies. Short stature myths spread fast. Does Gymnastics Stunt Your Growth? Gymnastics does not…
As a sushi nerd who’s spent 12+ years tasting, testing, and yes, arguing about tiny fish eggs, here’s the quick truth: masago is the salted, crunchy roe from capelin, used on sushi rolls, bowls, and anywhere you want pop and umami. In my experience, it’s cheaper than tobiko, a bit softer, salty, bright, and wildly…
Short answer: yes. If you’re asking “is athlete’s foot contagious,” the answer is a loud, unglamorous yes. It’s tinea pedis. A classic foot fungus. And it spreads like gossip in a locker room. As someone who’s coached athletes and dealt with grimy gym floors for over a decade, I’ve seen this thing jump teams, households,…
As a coach and clinician who’s spent 12+ years watching people squat and then limp, here’s the blunt truth: most knee pain when squatting comes from a few usual suspects—anterior knee pain, patellofemoral pain, cranky tendonitis, a grumpy meniscus, stiff hips, poor ankle dorsiflexion, and that lovely inward knee cave we call valgus collapse. I…
As a clinician and coach who’s spent 12+ years poking at cranky hips and calming down nervous systems, here’s the fast truth: a pinched nerve in hip pain-land usually means nerve compression from your back, hip, or tight tissue.
