  • The Most Important Prescription from a Doctor.... Exercise! Here we review Zone 2 exercise which has been shown to improve endurance, burn fat (especially the dangerous visceral inside fat), and improve longevity. If you're like me, you error on the side of the upper zones with HITT training for that burn and sweat. But it is important to mix in lower intensity, endurance exercise as well. Exercise is the best medicine we have and no matter what form you are doing, regular exercise will improve your health. Find something you enjoy and can regularly commit to doing and make it a habit. You got this! #exercise #exercisemotivation #exerciseismedicine #zone2training #endurance #endurancetraining #fatburner #fatburning #mitochondria #fattyacids #health #healthspan #longevity #exercisetip

  • Feeling #hopeless is heavy. It’s oppressive. Recognizing hopelessness as a #symptom of #mentalhealth struggle and crisis is vital to disarming it. And how do we disarm despair, you ask? (Not necessarily by choking it into submission, as Brazilian jiu jitsu Coach @tripsmall of @foundationchicago and @pilsendefenseaccess demonstrates on @juliabruenemd here) - but through choosing #community ❤️ Hopelessness, like many symptoms of #depression and #emotional dysregulation, thrives in #isolation - and simply by reaching out for #connection to our loved ones, we can slowly build habits that not only strengthen our personal physical, emotional, and mental #health - but also empower and sustain our communities as a #collective 🤙 Coach Trip Small, a #theraplst and LCSW guides this discussion on hopelessness and the power of choosing community, #service, and #mutualaid on this week’s episode of Your Doctor Friends. Check it out, it’s a good one, friends 😘 The struggle is real. We are in it #together - thanks for letting us be Your Doctor Friends. #bjj #brazilianjiujitsu #mma #podcast
  • Can you be too #young for a #hip replacement #surgery ? As #sportsmedicine physicians, we hear this type of question a lot. Some folks experience severe #osteoarthritis at a young age due to many factors. Some are #genetic , some due to #joint #trauma and some related to #health conditions that affect the joints more systemically. Thankfully we work with amazing #orthopedic surgeons like Dr. Omar Behery @omar_a_behery with @mor_docs who are up to date on the latest #research on #arthritis management. The short answer is, if your joint is causing #pain and suffering and dysfunction, it is worthwhile to seek care from an orthopedic specialist to determine the root cause and discuss your options, surgical or otherwise! You deserve to live a life of comfort, stability, and mobility. ❤️ #hipreplacement #jointreplacement #jointpain #hippain
