  • How to maintain your motivation for exercise no matter what the price of GST is - Episode 28
    Jun 14 2022

    Today's episode is all about intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation and reward.

    The books I mentioned are https://www.nirandfar.com/hooked/ and https://www.nirandfar.com/indistractable/

    The other thing that can help maintain motivation is goal events. Having an event in the future is a great way of shifting your mindset to longer term planning.

    When something becomes longer term and part of your habit it will begin to become part of your identity. When something becomes your identity it makes doing the activity a natural part of your day.

  • IRL Shoes - Episode 24
    May 25 2022

    Choosing which sneakers to buy with STEPN is a big decision but another big decision is which IRL shoes to buy.

    In today's episode, I give a big overview of the big factors to consider when choosing your running shoes.

    This topic was in response to a question I had on the STEPN Injury Prevention Facebook Group and after making a shoe decision that led to injuring myself.

  • What to do when you have an acute injury - Episode 23
    May 25 2022

    Today, after injury myself quite badly last night, I talk about what to do when you have got an acute/traumatic injury.

    The conventional wisdom or RICE - Rest, Ice, Compress and Elevate has changed and been updated. PEACE & LOVE is what the British Journal Of Sports Medicine now recommends -https://blogs.bmj.com/bjsm/2019/04/26/soft-tissue-injuries-simply-need-peace-love/

    I also talk about how to think about injuries that stop you doing what you want to do so that you stay healthy and bounce back quickly.

    So many of my patients think not enough stretching is the reason they have sore muscles, get injured and cannot perform at their best.
