SHOES

In 2022, I began recommending a handful of shoes to my clients and watching their results skyrocket as a result. These shoes are thoroughly tested and vetted by the Hruska Clinic, which evaluates hundreds of shoes Each year and selects the top four.

A few notes before you run and buy the shoes:

• If you don’t have pain? You can probably skip this.

• If you do have pain and it has been coming and going but never quite gone for good? Read on.

• Do not feel the need to “break-in” the shoes. If you put them on and they don’t feel pretty great immediately? Return them. If you aren’t sure? Book a call with me and I’ll help you determine if they’re appropriate.

• With that in mind, feel free to try more than one pair and simply return whichever feels less amazing since you aren’t going to wear them out of the house, right?! Good.

• That said, these are some things you might notice when they ARE right for you:

  • You notice a decrease in tension (in your back, your neck, your hip flexors, etc).

  • You feel noticeably more stable.

  • While walking you might feel more relaxed, heavier, and efficient.

  • You can feel: your heels (especially the left), your hamstrings, and your abs more easily (without clenching or really thinking about it).

THE 3 SHOES my clients love and thrive in

New balance 860 v13 - Good for average arch individuals. Helps with awareness of the foot inside the shoe

BROOKS DYAD - Also good for average arches. Better for feeling the floor under you rather than your foot in the shoe.

Asics Cumulus 23 - Good for a history of ankle sprains/instability and/or higher arches

The above links will take you to my amazon affiliated pages which will send two pennies to me for each purchase you make, however, find and buy them anywhere you like!

Other essentials:

• Electrolytes

  • whether it’s strenuous workouts or strenuous days at work, electrolytes are an essential component of your muscle function and, no, drinking more water alone is not the answer. This can actually flush out the electrolytes you need. I love and always recommend Trace Minerals to my clients because THEY WORK. No fluff, no flavor, just keeping you moving.

• Portable workout goodies:

  • TRX Suspension Trainer: I recommend the TRX to all my clients because it is one of THE most portable options to help you maintain your exercise routine no matter where in the world you are. It hooks easily over doors, around trees, or fences in a park. And, it’s super durable! I’ve had mine for 4 years and it’s in perfect shape.

  • Ancore Cable System: The Ancore cable system—also portable for home or park workouts—allows you to do the kinds of cable exercises you normally can only do in the gym. Pretty neat, right?! AND, it’s easier to quantify and track your resistance since it actually has plates in 5lb increments. I’ve been using mine for 2 years and it is an asset to my home gym setup.
