I’m often asked why I carry a bag full of herbs around the world with me. I drink a lot of tea throughout the day (anywhere from 5-15 cups). Tea to me isn’t an option, it’s part of my optimal super-performance health plan.

As a USA National Coach for several years, I observed many athletic injuries: more than half were absolutely preventable as they happened not in a sport or on the job, but in training. The actual preparation became the villainous hurdle to their growth and development.
We've become so good at fitness ...
