#109 - The Power Of Your Breath

May 14, 2021 21:00 - 12 minutes - 8.32 MB

The art of breathing appears paradoxical as we develop into an adolescent. Perhaps it's our consciousness of our body, hitting puberty, thinking of how we appear to others.

"Worrying is like praying for something you don't want. So stop worrying." Bhagavan Das Always watch your mind! A great tip that was taught to me by a Buddhist monk many years ago. For if you don't keep a watchful eye, our mind can take us on a wild journey in no time. This same monk also shared this simple equation: 1. Do you have a problem? No - THEN WHY WORRY? 2. Do you have a problem? Yes. Is there a solution? Yes. THEN WHY WORRY? 3. Do you have a problem? Yes. Is there a solution? No....

April 29, 2021 19:00 - 12 minutes - 8.37 MB

Should you or shouldn't you stretch? My answer is a question back to you - what do you think and believe? We can go do an internet search right now on any topic and 50% of the people would agree, and 50% would disagree.

"Tough Times Don't Last. Tough People Do." Manny Gamburyan No matter WHAT happens to us in life, we can always choose between a positive or negative mindset. The negative mindsets however just arise, seemingly naturally and without any effort, just like any obstacles in life too! The positive responses though have to be trained. No if's, and's or but's.

Steps 4-6 in the 15-Step Playbook for Pain Relief revolve around my Top 3 Choices for Strengthening Exercises. But why only 3? I'd argue you could even just select 1, and you'll find a game changing effect. Why? Because currently you may not be doing anything to pay off your postural debt, and so any little contribution is teaching your body to pay of this imbalance, and over time, you can increase the reps, sets and intensity to pay off even larger sums of imbalance.  The key, therefore, ...

"A bad attitude is like a flat tire. You can't get very far with it." Anonymous It's not what happens to you in life, it's how you choose to respond with your attitude.

April 13, 2021 18:00 - 12 minutes - 8.45 MB

Over the process of millions of years we have become a bipedal species which means our spinal structure and supporting soft tissues had to also evolve to maintain an erect posture and efficient gait. The challenge that we are facing modern day, and the picture above speaks for itself, is that we invest many hours each day accumulating significant postural debt.

#81 - How Many Exercise Reps & Sets For Strength & Stability?

March 25, 2021 20:00 - 13 minutes - 9.58 MB

One question I hear often, is 'how many times should I be doing this exercise?'  My quick answer is 'as often as possible'. Consider how many times a day you are holding certain postures that misalign your body, and unless you are taking the equivalent time each day to do the exact opposite, then you are accumulating postural debt. I encourage everyone to pay down this debt as often and as quickly as possible.  My next answer is 'that depends on your goals.' Essentially, here is the formul...

Consider that the average human breathes 16 times per minute. If we multiply this over a 16-hour period (the average time that we are awake each day), we would have taken 15,360 breathes in that time frame. Now imagine each day you perform 15,360 bicep curls and no tricep work to counteract this indifference. You would be accumulating a SIGNIFICANT postural debt, which would cause the bicep muscles to shorten and tighten (become hypertonic) and the tricep muscles to lengthen and weaken (beco...
