"The Esports Physical Therapist" | Founder of 1HP | I teach gamers, desk workers, artists and programmers how to fix wrist pain and stay healthy

You are the sum of the postures, positions, movements and mental habits you’ve had over the past weeks, months and years. Let’s think about this in three categories: Physical, Cognitive and Lifestyle.

Lifestyle: On occasion you might find yourself in consistent work and hobby sprints throughout the year without an emphasis on maintaining balance in your life. 8 hour work blocks with no breaks and no consideration of ergonomics. Long gaming sprints without breaks and eating into your sleep. Inconsistent sleep leading to social jet lag (weekend late sleep, weekday normal sleep). Again, not bad for a few days… but same problem when we look at things from the long-term scale

What can you do with this information? Let me give you some action steps 1⃣Assess your physical, mental and lifestyle health. Use our content to establish a baseline of where you are right now with these things 2⃣Start making some modifications to move more, understand pain or take more breaks 3⃣Re-assess how you are doing after a month (it takes time for our bodies to adapt) Then repeat setting a goal for what you want to achieve the next month compared to benchmarks

DAD TO DAD: You cannot work 50 hours a week, hit the gym every morning, build wealth, keep the house in order, be an amazing husband, show up fully for your kids, maintain friendships, pursue hobbies, eat perfectly, read every night, and still have unlimited energy left for yourself. Something will eventually give. And too many fathers are walking around feeling like failures because they cannot do everything at once. Social media tells you to be a provider, a present father, a devoted husband, a successful entrepreneur, an athlete, and a man who never complains about being tired. But you're human. Not a machine. Your kids don't need a father who has mastered every aspect of life. They need a father who loves them, listens to them, makes time for them, and keeps showing up. Your family needs your presence more than your perfection. Build your career. Take care of your health. Chase your dreams. But stop measuring your worth against an impossible standard. You don't have to excel at everything to be a great dad. Sometimes, doing enough is more than enough.

After watching my 4 month old develop her neck strength with tummy time I actually think our society could probably benefit from an adult tummy time course 😂 Our necks be weak

There are thousands of individuals who have lived a "quantified" life using trackers like Bevel, Whoop, Oura and have begun to train their brain, nervous & immune system to respond to often normal stress / physiologic responses in ways that are cumulatively detrimental to their health Please if you are using these tools, use them as tools, not gospel as a clear relationship as to what is going on. The categorizations can take into account the data from your physiology but directly influence your perception through the "label" of strain, fatigue, etc When many times there are other variables that may not be directly accounted for without appropriate reflection

5% of patients account for 50% of messages sent to patient portals. Some doctors have lots of that 5%, others have none. And, by the way, doctors don't get compensated for the time involved in responding to those messages. The takeaway? 'Good' doctors, the ones patients feel comfortable messaging, get paid less and burn out more. 'Bad" doctors, the ones who don't respond to messages or connect with patients get paid more and burn out less. Explains a lot about the medical system.
