The supplement industry is huge and pre-workout supplements are a big piece of that industry. With that there are a lot of promises and false hopes around certain ingredients.

In this research review, we are highlighting what Greg Nuckols has put together around the impact of sleep (or lack of it) on strength. The two studies below look at how sleep impacts strength and the findings weren’t quite as big as you might have thought. We discuss what this means, how it applies and how you still want to focus on sleep to make sure it is a priority but also that you can still get work done if you fall short on any given night.1.

This episode is a combination of ‘What We Are Reading’ and ‘Leadership Insight’. Joel is joined by Rick Cox (see Leadership Insights) to discuss some of their favorite passages from the book ‘Ego Is The Enemy’ by Ryan Holiday. This book hit both of them real hard, in a good way, that and made them think deep on what they can focus on when it comes to their own ego and how it applies to everything they do.In this episode they pulled out 3 of their favorite passages each and discussed how they apply to not only athletic training but to strength and conditioning, and other health and fitness realms. We highly recommend this book to everyone and if you can open up and be humble, there is so much more you can do in the world in a positive way.#complicatedsimple #resultsthatgiveback #heartbeatbarbell

Is the timing of when you get your nutrients in important? Well it depends. Dr. Jagim breaks down what you need to know about nutrient timing.

This research review looks at a study that utilized “research snacks” to see the effects on insulin, glucose and free fatty acids after meals throughout the day. These “snacks” consisted of ascending 3 flights of stairs as fast as possible every hour throughout the day. Each time would take between 10-20s. The results showed that for an overweight and obese group there was a decrease in insulin and free fatty acid levels, no changes in these levels occurred in a healthy group.Interesting concept to help control blood levels with a minimal amount of effort throughout the day.

In a podcast on ATChat we talked with Dr. Julie Stamm, a concussion expert, and she mentioned the pressure felt by providers to return patients faster than they were ready. We highlight a study she worked on showing how common that pressure is and what it means for the potential risks to the health and safety of patients and athletes.

After attending a Dry Needling course and getting some fantastic extra clinical pearls this one really stuck out to me. It was extremely interesting to think about utilizing lumbar adjustments as rehab, through the stretch reflex of muscles. We aren't downplaying rehab at all and think it is really important but I had never thought of this concept as something that worked in this way. So I did my best to recap it. Thoughts?www.clinicallypressed.org#complicatedsimple #resultsthatgiveback #heartbeatbarbell
