Protein As a Habit
The morning of my flight to LA all I had was a protein shake and it reminded of something my body has seem to have forgotten. For a while now when I have this need to get going I’ve been grabbing caffeine whether that be coffee, energy drinks or pre-workouts.
Terrible, I know…
The thing is that wasn’t always my go to. Before, for the longest time, if I was in a pinch I’d just grab whatever I could find with the most protein. It was a habit and no matter what diet or thing I was doing in life at the time, that served me vastly more than the stimulants. It’s a bit a conscious habit at first but eventually it becomes the “thing you do”.
Dr Andy reminded me the other day during our ABC session of this yoga pose called cobra. He’s not the first chiro to recommend it. I really need to make it a staple on the deadlift and pulling days. It helps a lot with stretching my hips, psoas, and tight abdomen that seems to get so tacked down (probably from all the sitting I do). I believe these will help engage or at least remedy the weird QL issue I have going on.
