So, you’ve decided you’re ready to change – that’s awesome! But are you WILLING to make the change? (It’ll get uncomfortable and not many people love to be uncomfortable.) Are you ABLE to make the change? Or do you need a little support from someone – like a coach – to make it happen?

With the snow melting and the weather cooperating more for some more riding, let’s get your bike ready for some more miles! Give this episode a listen to learn the simple steps you can take to check your bike to make sure it’s ready to shred with you.

Distractions obliterate your focus. By not fully-investing your attention into your work or task at hand, you are doing your brain and body a disservice. So, instead of half-assing your focus and rest, learn to set boundaries in order to limit your distractions, and your focus and health will soar!

You will feel more present in all that you do. You will have more energy, and you will even become a better human along the way. Why not try to half-ass your life less?

Hi, it’s me.

Creatine is one of the most researched supplements in the world, and it is found to be safe and effective. However, creatine use among women is vastly under-researched (what else is new?). Recent research is including more women (which we desperately need!), and the current research is showing that women store and synthesize less creatine than males. In this episode, I explain the differences between women and men when to comes to creatine supplementation, and how dosage can be adjusted, if at all.

Here’s the study I referenced in this episode if you’d like to nerd-out on it with me: PMID 33800439: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33800439/

Hi, it’s me.

Despite supplements sometimes being beneficial and having a relatively low-risk profile, there are some downsides and dangers to supplements. In this episode, I share some things to look out for when it comes to supplements, as well as a couple of things you can do to keep your safety and health in check if you decide to supplement.

Some things you can look for on the labels of your supplements are that the supplement company practices Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and you get some bonus points if they are third-party tested for accuracy and quality (this will usually cost more). Also, here are some resources for you:

• You can learn more here on the FDA’s website if you are in the United States: https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/fda-101-dietary-supplements
• https://examine.com/ is an excellent resource for learning more about supplements and which ones may be beneficial for you, once you speak with your qualified medical professional.
