Hi {NAME}, Iâm always a work in progress and continue to refine my thoughts. It could be irritating when I adjust my opinion on things. But usually its for good reason, and itâs usually not a 180 degree pivot. Heres a few things that I have pivoted on recently: 1) When I am fatigued or feeling like I might be fighting a sickness (i.e. kids are sick, etc), I will still workout, but I might eat before a workout. I find that during that time I donât need the added stress of a hard workout in a fasted state. So far, this has been helpful at keeping my recovery strong. I still do my normal workouts in a fasted state. But this seems to be the circumstance in which I train in a fed state and it works to my advantage. 2. Barefoot Shoes - Iâve always been a fan of them, but there are some drawbacks⦠The lack cushion makes it hard to really push it on any kind of plyometrics if youâre not completely adjusted to using barefoot shoes. I was finding that my back would flare up a lot if I overused the barefoot shoes. Recently in some of my vids youâve probably seen me wearing some unique looking shoes. These were created by the ancestral movement forefather, Mark Sisson (you can see the [interview here](. These are [Peluva shoes]( and theyâre the first 5-finger toe shoe to sport a 9mm padding and fully articulated toes. So I can get a toe-spacer like effect, all the flexibility of a barefoot shoe, but actually have some padding so I can walk long distances, occasionally run, but do things like box jumps, etc. If you are interested in trying them, Peluva has extended a generous discount of 15%. Just [click on this link]( or use the Discount Code "THOMAS" when you check out at Peluva.com. Theyâre worth a shot, especially if you battle back pain like I do. 3. Vitamin C as a Prophylactic - I went back to the old research in a 2007 massive Cochrane review that really did find 2,000mg of vitamin C daily for those that workout hard really does make an impact. Does it matter if youâre not pushing your body? Not too much according to the literature. But if you are taxing your aerobic system and youâre pushing your body⦠well, then you may want to simply load up on 2,000mg of easy vitamin C per day. Interestingly, the literature shows that it doesnât help once youâre already sick. I used to think that Vitamin C (although lots good literature) was kind of overrated⦠But then I go back to the large data and I get convinced. Iâll keep you posted. 4. NSAIDs I wouldnât say this is a new opinion, just a stronger one⦠After this recent bout of parasitic infection, my gut lining took a beating. Shortly after recovering from the parasite I tweaked my lower back deadlift. So, I took a bit of ibuprofen. My gut was wrecked. Absolutely obliterated in pain. Seems as though the weakening of my gut lining from the infection combined with the NSAIDs really triggered a bad response. Point is, this stuff is REAL. I feel like I could speak about NSAIDs from the literature but never from experience⦠Well, now, I am a believer. If you have any stomach issues, opt for something like CBD, turmeric, or something more mild to start and perhaps lean into NSAIDs as a last resort⦠Dang! Anyhow, a few simple things that have changed how I look at the world of fitness and nutrition over these past few months! See you tomorrow!
