We did the GO CAPS project this year.
It was a great experience!

Our first student was a young man named Brody but for the time we worked together we never got an actual photo.
He came by today because him and his partner will be using our posture cameras in their capstone project and we love that!

The funny thing was, when he came by today we were both wearing blue shirts, black t-shirts, khakis and the same type of shoes!

That’s a bit uncanny, but needless to say, it’s a sure sign that he is going places! 😂👍💯

He’s a great young man and we look forward to seeing what he can do with his project and his future in general!

We had a great time catching up with some old friends at the Peak Sport and Spine Christmas Party!
Our only regret is that we left too soon and didn’t get more photos.

Thank you to Phillip and Mark for the invite.
You guys have a great company!

Rodney, always good to see you Brother!

Just outside our window in the beautiful Lake Parke facility is this tree we’ve nicknamed “the cardinal tree”. Every single bird was a cardinal, we’ve never seen so many in one place!

Lifting weights releases myokines which are signaling proteins produced by muscle cells, which have beneficial effects on inflammation, hormone levels, blood sugar levels, brain health and so much more.

Myokines act as messengers, communicating between muscles and other organs, impacting various bodily functions.

Myokines are released during muscle contractions when weight training and play a crucial role in mediating the positive effects of exercise.

Myokines, particularly IL-6, have been shown to reduce inflammation, both acute and chronic low-grade inflammation, associated with inactivity, aging or metabolic disorders.

Additionally, myokines, including IL-6 and irisin, can improve glucose uptake, enhance insulin sensitivity and regulate glucose metabolism in the liver and pancreas.

Some myokines, like FGF21, can cross the blood-brain barrier and have been shown to improve cognitive function, reduce inflammation and protect against neurodegenerative diseases.

Strength training regulates hormones by boosting beneficial anabolic hormones like testosterone and growth hormone, increasing insulin sensitivity to control blood sugar, and reducing catabolic stress hormones like cortisol. It helps maintain a healthy balance of hormones, which can improve mood, muscle mass, bone density, and metabolism, particularly as people age.

Looking forward to our talk tomorrow at Lake Parke in Camdenton, MO!
The talk will focus on the importance of staying strong throughout the aging process, and how to do it.

This is a brand new presentation with all new material focused on the 70+ crowd and their families.

If you have a group or organization that could benefit from this talk, DM us and we would love to come present to your group too!

Interesting side note to healthy living and resistance training…studies show we can keep 70-80% of our muscle mass into our 70’s indicating that our mobility isn’t as much about our age as it is our lifestyle.

This AI video was a good reminder of that. 🦾

A big thank you to everyone who came out for our first Posture Talk at the Coffee Shop at Café Jude's tonight!

We learned about posture from the shoulders up tonight, and had a great time among friends and coffee.

We look forward to doing it again soon!

A massive study involving 128,119 participants has revealed that exercise can be more effective than medication in treating depression. Researchers found that consistent physical activity significantly improved mood, motivation, and overall mental well-being, often outperforming traditional pharmaceutical treatments in both speed and long-term impact.

The science behind it is powerful. Exercise releases endorphins, the body’s natural mood enhancers, along with serotonin and dopamine, which stabilize emotions and boost focus. Regular movement also reduces inflammation in the brain and helps regulate stress hormones like cortisol, creating a chemical environment that supports healing from depression.

Participants who engaged in moderate activities, such as walking, jogging, cycling, or yoga, for at least 150 minutes a week showed the strongest improvements. What’s more, exercise provided benefits without the side effects often linked to medication.

While antidepressants and therapy remain essential for many, this study shows that movement is medicine,and in some cases, it may be the most accessible and effective prescription of all.

Even a short daily walk can help lift your mood and rewire your brain toward resilience. The key isn’t intensity, it’s consistency.

Your body doesn’t just carry your mind; it heals it.
