    3 tips I wish I knew earlier to avoid injuries in my 20s and 30s

    When I say “weekend warrior”? What comes to mind?

    You’re probably thinking of that crazy person in the office who you’ve never really seen going to the gym, yet is telling you all about that spartan race they are about to jump into with only 2 weeks notice.

    Or your buddy who is salivating at the chance to re-live his HS football glory days at this weekend's upcoming flag football match with the guys despite not having worked out more than 2 times in the past 3 months.

    And you’d be right. Those certainly fall in that category of weekend warrior.

    And I used to be one of them.

    Yes, even though I worked out 5-6 days/week, I still wrecked my body on the weekends by overloading it with new activities, too many hours of sports, and too little recovery.

    Because a weekend warrior is truly just someone who may dive into new activities, un-prepared, and tries to “go too hard”.

    And 4-5 years ago, that was me. And it got me an ACL rupture, patella fracture, 2 calf tears and a lower back strain all within a year.

    But hey, even despite having all those injuries - being someone who likes to constantly be faced with new challenges in a physical capacity and push my body to the limits is just who I am. And maybe you can relate to that.

    That’s why I wanted to share 3 top things that I’ve adopted into my life to help me, your crazy weekend warrior friend, to stay injury-free.

    And hey, I'm not gonna jinx it, but it has been 4+ years now 🙂

    You guys have heard me talk about the Knees Over Toes /ATG program on this channel for a while now, and it's obviously good for the knees, right? But I haven't talked much about how this program has also helped my shoulders.

    As a volleyball player, I am constantly using my shoulders for hitting and blocking, digging, all sorts of motions. And obviously volleyball is not the only sport that uses the shoulders. There are many, many sports that require a lot of range of motion and strength in the shoulder. And just like the knees are very common injury, the shoulders are as well.

    So today in this video, I want to go over my top five favorite exercises from the knees over toes program that has made the biggest impact on my shoulders and my ability to continue to perform my sport well and stay injury free.

    ATG Shoulder Standards:

    External rotations - 10% of BW for 12 reps

    Cross Bench Pullover - 25% of BW for 12 reps

    Trap 3 Raise - 10% of BW in each hand for 8 reps

    Powell Raise - 10% of BW for 10 reps

  • The TRUTH about Health Optimization

    The TRUTH about Health Optimization

    Does anyone else feel like they are stuck in an echo chamber of health optimization podcasts lately with guests who reference studies that sometimes seem questionable? Because I certainly do. And frankly, it’s starting to get under my skin. Especially when each “expert” starts to contradict the other.

    This obsession over tracking every metric, controlling every input and output, and hacking our biology to be "perfect" has gone too far.

    So, today I want to have an honest discussion about the growing fixation in the health & wellness world on optimizing and maximizing human performance.

    With easy accessibility to podcast platforms, book publishers, and supplement manufacturing - more biohacking & optimization experts have been elevated into the public eye - touting the benefits of tracking every metric, looking at every biomarker, and trying to isolate and control every body system. And I’m starting to see a huge issue with this. And a dangerous one at that.

    While some self-tracking can be beneficial, the current hyperfocus on human optimization is often counterproductive and disconnected from real well-being. In this video, I'll break down the problems with this movement and hopefully offer a healthier, more sustainable perspective.
