If your weekly runs or conditioning sessions always feel “kinda hard" you might be (unintentionally) limiting your progress and making yourself tired 🥱

When you do every single workout at that same moderate intensity, you fall into the intermediate trap:

1️⃣ You’re going too fast to build a powerful, efficient aerobic base

2️⃣ You’re too fatigued to improve speed and power

The result? Lots of sweat, fatigue, and zero new PRs…

To break the plateau, you may need to polarize your training 😉

Is knees over toes the best form? 🤔

The science based answer? It depends. It depends on your limb lengths, mobility, strength, goals, etc.

For example, someone who’s having pain may need to perform a movement differently than someone who’s not.

If you’re not sure, asking yourself these questions can help:
Am I achieving the intended stimulus?
Is my movement controlled and stable?
Does this variation cause pain or discomfort during or after the set?
What is my primary goal for this movement?
Does my current mobility safely allow for this range of motion?
Is the load manageable for my current tissue tolerance?
Does it feel "right"?
Am I forcing a position because I saw it on the internet, or because it works for my mechanics?
Can I replicate this form consistently under fatigue?

🎖️ The takeaway: Personalization beats generalization every single time. There is no one-size-fits-all in training because there is no one-size-fits-all human!

Which version of meal prep do you need this week? 🤔

Most people think meal prep has to be made from scratch, cooking in matching containers...and if they don’t have time for that, they just skip it.

But consistency is situational. Some weeks, the most effective "prep" you can do is buying high-quality, pre-made meals.

The fix? Plan A and Plan B

Plan A: Made from scratch meals (eMeals, The Meal Prep Manual, Macro Friendly Foods etc.)
Plan B: Purchase pre-made meals (Power Plate Meals, etc.)

Pick one day each week to look at the calendar ahead and decide: Am I prepping or am I buying?

Staring at the wall for 40 minutes? No thanks.

Try these 3 dopamine stacking strategies to make your Zone 2 sessions something you actually look forward to:

1. The Plus One: Invite a family member or friend or take your dog!

2. Temptation Bundling: Pick a podcast, audiobook, or video you’re excited about and ONLY listen to it/watch it during Zone 2 sessions.

3. The Anchor Method: Schedule something you enjoy or want to do immediately after you finish. Having an anchor helps you push through and get to the reward.

If your schedule is unpredictable, keep a "minimal effective dose" kit in your car or desk. A pair of sneakers and a high-protein snack can be the difference between a total wash and a successful 15-minute conditioning window when a meeting runs late.

The truth about calories? Stop 🛑 thinking about them as all or nothing.

If you’ve ever felt like a slave to a tracking app, you’ve probably asked yourself: Do these numbers even matter? The nuanced answer?

Both 👏 of 👏 these 👏 things 👏 are 👏 true:

🧬The Science: Calories are the fundamental unit of energy. To change your body composition, the math equations of energy in vs. energy out has to be correct.

🪞The Reality: Obsessing over a single daily number often leads to all or nothing thinking where one "bad" meal makes you want to delete the app and quit.

Instead, move beyond the "Pass/Fail" mentality of calorie counting:

✅ Focus on the Weekly Trend, Not the Daily Snap-Shot. Look at your average energy intake over 7 days, allowing you to have a life (and a social life) without the shame and guilt that comes from occasional splurges.

✅ Quality vs. Quantity.
2,000 calories of processed snacks and 2,000 calories of whole foods might be "equal" on paper, but they are vastly different for your hunger levels, muscle recovery, and hormones.

✅ The "Volume K**b" Approach.
There are seasons to track meticulously (like prepping for a specific goal) and seasons to move toward mindful, intuitive eating to build self trust and not worry about the numbers. They can both exist in your approach.

The Bottom Line: Calories matter, but they aren't the only thing that matters 👀

Hot take: You probably need both ✌️

Here’s why ⬇️
Zero drop runners load the Achilles tendon more due to the increased demand on ankle dorsiflexion, while heel-elevated runners shift the load higher up the chain — placing more force on the patellar tendon and knee joint.

Rotating ♻️ between both can help distribute stress more evenly and reduce overuse injuries.

But what do most people do? Buy one pair, wear it for everything, and wonder why something starts hurting 😅

If you’ve only ever trained in one style — especially if you’re dealing with chronic Achilles or knee pain — it might be time to switch things up.
