Feel good > taste good

This workout got me in crazy wrestling shape back in high school. Kinda wish I did more of it in college 💀 Coach Ozzie had me hit this almost every day after practice. Half the battle was just convincing myself to start. #zapfit #wrestling #grappling

Been out of competition shape for jiu jitsu since my daughter was born 6 months ago. Making my way back now with quick workouts that take 30mins or less. I call them Zapfit workouts ⚡ This one got me good 💀 #zapped #zapfit

30 Days Ago vs Now 👇🏽 Consistency + strength work + stretching = progress. What I’ve been focusing on: – Static stretching daily – 1-2x/week strength work for splits Still a work in progress, but every week feels like a win. This is gonna take awhile 😅. https://youtube.com/shorts/4EdwEnDCdG0?feature=share

What are the biggest pain points you run into on your health journey?

Hand fighting is the most important thing to learn for wrestling. It should be the main focus of any beginner. But, it needs to be learned on a solid foundation. That foundation is a wrestling stance. If you want to learn how to stand and move like a wrestler, look no further! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ApfsFIgEqw #handfighting #wrestling #grappling #jiujitsu

We should remove calories from food labels. There needs to be more of a focus on ingredients than calories. Unpopular opinion?

5 things I've benefitted from the most this past year: 1. Red light Therapy — Helped a lot with stubborn injuries and low energy levels in the winter. 2. UVB Light Therapy — Pairs well with my red light panel to mimic sunlight. Raises my vitamin D during winter months. 3. Shower Filter — Filters out a lot of harsh chemicals that used to dry my hair and skin out. Now I step out not feeling ashy 😂 4. Seafood — I've ignored seafood for years. My mistake. The omega 3s and vitamin D in wild caught salmon, sardines, and cod liver oil got me feeling great. Gill yeah! 5. Magnesium Glycinate — Melts stress away and makes it easier to fall asleep. I'm a huge fan of experimenting with tech and foods to optimize my health. What's worked for you guys?

Lots of folks think grappling injuries are setbacks. They're really opportunities. Since I'm dealing with an elbow injury right now, I decided to talk through how I'm approaching it and what I've learned through 20 years of grappling. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=795PRVICJkQ #bjj #jiujitsu #grappling #wrestling

No degree will teach you what curiosity can

Nothing makes you feel better than a few minutes in the sun 🌞

Made my first long-form note via Highlighter! I kept getting a 402 error when I tried uploading a cover image. Not sure why 😅 . But it's cool to see how easy it is to write long-form on nostr now. Highlighter is awesome. naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzqj7qh6ssctvcsqkry9wkz3ecyku907whzzakpmm7a2r59s5mnu42qquysmmh946x7t2tv4jhqt2swfhkwun9wdekjmn894hkutt5dpjj6ntpw3ej64mgd9kx2t2fde482un9vsknj6n8d3hx22y9zyp

Anyone know of a good devhut? Aka something I can setup outside to sit at, get sunlight, and protect me from any rain/snow? Some sort of screened igloo with a table comes to mind when I think of a devhut lol
