Hi Barry,
Thanks so much for responding, I appreciate you! I definitely agree there is so much more than nutrition involved. So I like the reminders here to keep doing the other parts.
However, when it does come to food, I do want to optimize. I love your post workout advice to just eat some protein/veg. That sounds right!
For years, I…

Hi Leigh Anne,
For us women, we need to think about our nutrition and exercise as more as a monthly program rather than a daily or weekly one.
You want to be careful with your progesterone so you don’t end up gaining all the belly fat etc in five years when you hit menopause. During your luteal phase, which happens about two weeks after the first…

Hi Leigh-Anne,
I worked as a Sports Nutritionist for over 10yrs and have probably overdosed on the subject of pre/post workout !
What I will say, as I drifted more into things like circadian biology and quantum biology I realized that food wasn’t really the main player when it came to bodily function. So definitely focus on what Mike and…

Hi Mike, thanks so much for your reply! 🙏 I love how you also expand this out beyond nutrition, and as I was laying belly down on the earth this morning after posting I thought about that too. How it is all connected and related, our everyday practices.
I do this thing in the mornings where I lay down to face the earth, giving love…

This is fantastic Leigh-Anne, love this lifestyle. I’d like to get into some more martial arts again to balance out my running and boarding activities. As far as nutrition and supplementation I’d love to hear what @barre has to say on that but for me I’ll just say recovery time is everything as that’s where the muscle grows and the body…

Hi all,
I really want to optimize my pre and post workout nutrition to support performance and recovery, and am curious to get in touch with whatever the latest and greatest guidelines are here. Are there any AV resources on this?
I’m 45 now and feel great, I do martial arts 3-4x/week in addition to yoga and outdoor movement (more of…

I agree with everything you said! My workout generally takes about 20 minutes and the rest of the day I am just active! I am really trying to create safety in my body physically by becoming stronger each day and listening to my body and nervous system. Anytime that I’m forced to breathe out of my mouth instead of my nose, it means I’ve pushed…
