It was an absolute honor to present “Health Optimization Built for the Demands of a Loaded OR Schedule” at the Clinical Orthopaedic Society annual conference last week

Met a lot of great people and it was exciting and fun to be in an environment with so many high quality surgeons who are striving to provide the best for the patients

Big time thank you to president Marlene DeMaio for inviting me out to present and putting on such a solid event 💪

Reminder to those who attended - if you want a free copy of my book - “Physician Vitality Blueprint” - then the code I shared is good until Friday!

For you who are already in pretty decent shape and are looking to take things to the next level, this is what a custom program that integrates with a surgeons schedule can do for you

My client had this kind of success despite being on call every other night

It’s so hard to see because you’re living in the moment from a place of insecurity but focus on being consistent for weeks on end

Those weeks add up and months

Months turn into years

Do that and you’ll be a new person - both mentally and physically

The number of times I’ve heard “I know what to do…” - more info is not your solution. Physicians - you have more than enough info to work with

It’s okay to say you need some accountability and a structured plan

A consult I did a while back communicated with me one of his biggest frustrations was his previous trainer not understanding his lifestyle as a surgeon

One of the goals for the surgeon was to add muscle - the trainer said he had to eat every 3 hours

For those that know I don’t even have to say more

You get how ludicrous that is

The trainer put it back on the surgeon and said he didn’t want it bad enough since he wasn’t able to comply with the trainers impractical (and uneducated) advice

If you’re looking for a health & fitness coach who has helped over 100 physicians and gets your lifestyle and knows how to program, coach, and get you results without it feeling impractical or impossible to sustain, then shoot me a DM

Apple Watch was found to have 28% error in reporting total daily energy expenditure (TDEE)

So hypothetically let’s say you’re burning 2300 kcal/day

That’s a range of 1,656 to 2,944 calories per day….insane

My recommendation is take the data (all of it) with a grain of salt. Use it to track trends. Mainly use it for sleep and steps. If you use it beyond that then do so in a manner that’s meaningful to you without you being obsessive about it

Surgery itself is not the workout

make sure you’re following a fitness plan that will help you build a body that can perform at a high level and recover from the wear and tear you put on your body for decades to come

I’ve seen it - and I know you have too - the surgeon who’s body forces them to retire before they’re ready to retire
