Are You Really Sure That Is What The Research Shows?
Written by a human, for humans, always. Sometimes... Theory does not work in reality. Sometimes... What you hear is not true.

I Could Do 17 Pull-Ups in High School. At 77.5 Kg, I Couldn’t Do One.
I was the first to notice the pull-up bar in the bushes of our residential compound. The iron bar slanted out from the holly bushes, half its paint peeled off, revealing blackened iron underneath. A shared bike was parked beside it, and someone had left a half-empty bottle of mineral water in the basket. I stood there watching for more than ten seconds, reached out, and got a palmful of dust before I even touched the bar.

The Rotation Your Body Is Begging For (And Why Stretching Isn’t Enough)
Turn your palm up. Flatten it. Turn it over and look at the back of your hand. Turn it back. This movement is so small it barely counts as movement. But touch your forearm near the wrist. There are two bones. One on the thumb side, one on the little-finger side. When the palm turns up and down, they do not twist together as one stiff unit. One travels around the other. The skin does not twist. The elbow does not fold. The bones inside have already made a rotation. This is the smallest unit of rotation.

Mishaps and a Misdiagnosis
Something just hit me: it's been a bad week for the medical field at this point. In the last few days, we've been hit with some damning pieces of news involving doctors and physicians basically failing their patients. I've heard stories about misdiagnoses and all else for a long time, but these last two stories... oh my goodness.

Two Scars, One Body: What My C-Section Taught Me About Why Wounds Heal Differently
I have had three surgeries. Wounds get my attention. As a child, I had orthopedic surgery for polio. I spent a month in bed afterward. My leg hung in a cast. The muscles shrank, the joints stiffened, and the wound leaked and stayed red and swollen for weeks. The scar grew wide, thick, and raised. It felt hard under my fingers and itched on rainy days. The itch felt like a small fire that never went out.

What is "Sober Curiosity"?
If you’ve ever thought about your relationship with alcohol, this post is for you! I can recall many years feeling that alcohol was an important part of social gatherings and a widely accepted way to “deal” with the stressors of life. And I remember making the decision to remove alcohol for my sport, knowing the science behind alcohol impacting performance, and later thinking - “wow, this is actually… really good for me?”

When Your Mind Feels Tired, Could Water Be Part of the Story?
It is three in the afternoon, and the email you have been drafting for twenty minutes still has only two sentences. A colleague’s question, harmless an hour ago, now lands as an interruption. The task in front of you is one you have done a hundred times, yet today it feels like pushing a stalled car uphill.

What Happens to a Child’s Brain When a Screen Replaces the World?
The restaurant is loud in the ordinary way. A server balances three plates along one forearm. At the next table, someone finishes a story and the whole group bursts out laughing; an older man leans back, wiping his eyes. Two booths over, a toddler drops a spoon, and her father pretends, with great theatrical concern, that it has vanished.
