“Belief can be as powerful as physiology.”

My father had a 15 foot rope hanging in our maple tree all throughout my childhood. We had numerous competitions climbing it, hanging from it, swinging from it etc. We would challenge family members at holiday parties to a climbing contest. My father always said (and still does), “you should always be able to climb a rope”. Looking back, this simple tool had quite an influence on my physical development. At age 43 I’m still climbing. (and so are many of our clients of all ages)

GET SWOLE! If you start taking Creatine you might notice pretty quickly that your muscles start looking a little fuller. That’s because creatine is an osmolyte, meaning it regulates cellular hydration, causing cells to swell slightly. And that volumization not only looks good in the mirror, it actually triggers a number of growth pathways like IGF-1 and mTOR protein expression, enhanced amino-acid uptake, improved glycogen storage, and satellite cell stimulation, all of which support real muscle growth.
So this means that creatine supports hypertrophy both by improving performance and by stimulating growth at the cellular level.

December is slacker month.

The #1 month that people get side tracked and slide off a cliff when it comes to self care and health.

Your one or two family parties are not an excuse to “get back on track January 1”. You deserve to feel your best which is why prioritizing “you” time is mandatory.

Sure, eat some desert and drink some wine but remember December has 31 days aka 744 hours aka 44,640 minutes. There is plenty of time if it’s important to you.

Deep in the backwoods lurks giant mature whitetail bucks, many of whom have never seen humans. Venturing into these woods can be daunting. No cell reception, harsh terrain, no roads, deep snow, unpredictable weather and nature itself who has no feelings.

Miles are covered searching for that one track that makes your heart stop. All this for a chance to stalk an animal designed to survive and elude you. Nearly all pursuits end in failure and exhaustion but the challenge brings certain people back for more.

Every cell in your body needs ATP for energy. Fatigue begins to set in after just a few seconds of high-intensity work, as ATP stores are drained faster than they can be replenished. Supplementing with creatine helps delay fatigue by increasing the supply of intramuscular phosphocreatine needed to recycle ADP, the byproduct of spent energy, back into usable ATP.

That extra energy can mean you can get an extra rep or two in the gym, a few more meters on the track, and faster recovery times between sets. Although the gains are relatively small, they’re made at that critical point near failure that is so important for muscle adaptation and growth.

Creatine is one of the most well-studied supplements, is considered safe for most people, and can provide meaningful training benefits. If there’s one supplement we recommend most people to consider, it’s creatine. Just remember, it’s not magic. It doesn’t make the work easier, it helps YOU work harder to make the most of your time in the gym.
