Let's go!

Now, let's start the show.

Hey, what's up, podcast listeners?

Thank you so much for checking out today's show.

This is episode 112 of the Skowat University podcast. The goal with each and every one of these shows is to bring you as much value-pat content to help you move better in the gym and in life, decrease your body, sakes, and pains, and help you reach your true athletic potential. Today's podcast is sponsored by barefoot athletics. Here's the deal. If you want to lift big weights with great technique, you need

the right shoe. For those of you out there that like to lift in a flat sole shoe like a Chuck

toe box that allows you to splay your toes out and naturally use your foot like it was designed.

No more cramming your foot into a narrow toebox and

smashing your foot into an unnatural position. If you want to enhance your foot stability,

your technique control, and eventually your performance, you need to check out this shoe.

I've been lifting in them with any of my non-Olympic lifts for over a year now and I just

they're not going to break your bank like a lot of other lifting shoes out there. So if you go on

barefoot athletics.com and that's B-E-A-R like the animal and use the code squat you, you can get

10% off your order. And that's for everything on their website, including the correct toe toe spacers

that I also wear

every single day. And you can learn more about those on my prior podcast, Why Your Shoes Suck with Dr. Ray McClanhan. Today's show is also sponsored by Ample. If you guys are like me, your day-to-day schedule is crazy busy. You don't always have time to sit down and eat a good meal, especially after your workout. I usually have a protein shake and try to chase it with something quick, like a bar, a Greek yogurt, or anything else I can get down quickly before jumping right back in to work for the day and treating patients. And then I find myself an hour later just starving. Ample solves this problem of not having enough time during the day to fuel your body optimally. They make a powder drink that comes in a bottle, all you have to do is add

water, shake it up over drinking. And check this out, each bottle is either 400 or

600 calories, including a ton of protein, very little sugar, 10 grams of fiber,
