When I have time and energy, i love to food prep and my weekday self always thankful! My hyped up southwestern salad kit from Trader Joe’s includes 50 grams of protein (sources:chicken thigh, hard boiled egg, pumpkin seeds-included in kit but I add extra, black beans, cotija cheese-included in kit but I add extra) and lots of other goodies like pickled red onions and tomatoes 🥗 🤤 and best of all it has that satisfying crunch.

WATER!!! I know we are all trying to be as healthy as we can these days which includes staying hydrated..but how much water should we be drinking? Does 8 glasses do it for every body weight and activity level?

The best calculation I’ve found is 1/2-1 oz. of H2O per lb. of body weight. So I’m 135lb and I should be getting 67.5-135 oz of H2O depending on activity level, climate, and amount you sweat.
Does this sound like a lot? Tips below:
- make goals (my goal is to drink 3 24 oz of that big blue bottle per day. I don’t beat myself up if I only do 2 but it’s nice to have )
-if running over 4-5 miles, walking/hiking, or any distance trail running, have a hydration pack or water bottle with you. Nothing worse than being out on a trail miles away from everything and being thirsty!
-keep a full glass or bottle of water by your desk and use refilling it (and those bathroom breaks) as a way to get up and move! Bonus points!
-drink herbal tea or sparkling sodas (or whatever your thing is) to mix it up.
Do you have any other tips for how you stay hydrated? Share below!

With everyone talking about self care these days..I thought I would put in my #1 self care and heath goal: get 8-8.5 hours of sleep!
This may seem simple, un-sexy, and NO fancy products to buy BUT whether you are average Jane or competitive athlete this is the #1 most important thing you can do for recovery and health! I get asked all the time by patients if there is anything else they can do to facilitate their healing and this is one of my top answers. More to come in later posts 🙌
If you are interested in reading or listening to any of the research check out Matthew Walker (guest on multiple podcasts, his book “Why we Sleep”, research papers) over at UC Berkeley.
As with everything, do the best you can..yes I’m talking to you..new parents and insomnia folks. And as always, check with your doctor for diagnosis of sleep disorders and problem solving help.

Coming back from an injury or a surgery is not easy...mentally or physically. I want to lift heavy and so do my legs/glutes but my brain and right ankle (and Coach Eli 🐶) say “start slow!”

Have an injury and want to still work out? Ask your Chiro, PT, or trainer for a home program. This is an example of a floor workout you can do with a boot, such as with a fracture or post-operative. *Obviously this video is in fast mode, reps should be done slower 🙌

Workout too boring?? Building strength 💪 while modifying for injuries will help you get back to the fun juicy sports and life activities faster and with less compensation issues.

Instead of Isometric external rotation holds with a tennis ball squeeze... thinks we should just throw the ball already!

What do you do when you need to train for an 18 day backpacking trip?..back loaded step ups, of course! Reps? X a million 😝

Thanks Jared for the awesome program!
