    sleep + recovery supplement?

    Magnesium Glycenate + Theanine works great for me.

    Supplements and Vitamins

    Agree, the OP has no baseline data to go from, so jumping right in to the "popular" supplements is a waste of money at best, potentially harmful at worst. Get bloodwork and a battery of other tests done to see what your body really needs.

    Running Again

    I love that book, but one of the problems I have with it is the minimalist running shoe craze it sort of set off. I have no problem with minimalist running, but I think too many people jumped right in and got hurt in the process. Plus, there's so much more to this book than minimalist running...

    Running Shoes

    Altras are zero drop, not negative drop. Transitioning to zero drop shoes should be done slowly to allow for the Achilles to stretch.

    Precisely. Being done today, in Africa, with "primitive" hunting tools.

    ATX 65 vs. 85 objective

    What am I missing? From what I see the cost diff in the ATX vs. Kowa is a few hundred bucks. Comparing TSN-88 to ATX 85.

    ATX 65 vs. 85 objective

    I'm going back and forth on what to buy. I'd like real world feedback from those who have used either or both in a backpack hunt environment, day hunts, etc. Is the larger objective worth the extra size and weight?

    Elk season fitness-altitude issues for flatlanders

    If you had to choose, I'd recommend the sauna over the tent because of its other numerous benefits. Plus, it can be used year-round whereas I doubt you'd want to sleep in an altitude tent every night!

    Dry sauna helps with acclimation. Invest in an altitude tent. They work.

    Christensen Ridgeline Firing Pin Spring

    In case anyone is interested, in speaking with a rifle builder, they are hearing Christensen is going to be lightening up their firing pin springs. Looking forward to this needed enhancement. I'll hopefully be able to retrofit my spring and improve bolt lift.

    Running Again

    We are absolutely made to run. Think persistence hunting. We can shed heat better than any other mammal. We can cover more distance than almost any other mammal over a long period of time.

    Christensen Ridgeline Firing Pin Spring

    Have this in 300 WM, and after shooting 50 rounds am surprised how stiff the bolt is cocked/decocked and loaded/unloaded. Bolt lift and closure is very stiff. I called them and they use a 32 lb. firing pin spring, which seems really stiff. There's so much negative Christensen feedback in...

    Prolotherapy, PRP, stem cell therapy

    Here's some more things to consider. Its far less invasive than tradition cut and sew procedures. Your body won't reject it. And it's also cheaper than surgery. So why not try it? I have had PRP on a torn hip labrum. I think it healed about 50%, went back a year later and had...

    Anyone else that can’t road run?

    There's "cant" road run, and "choose not to" road run. No one "cannot" road run. IMO, road running does elevate repetitive use injury risk, but if taking the proper precautions like mixing up terrain (road and trail) and a very disciplined approach to strength training, road running can be a...
