  • #33: Conquering Mountains – Lessons from Mt Rainier
    2025/08/07

    Mount Rainier is a 14,411-foot challenge of steep slopes, heavy packs, and unpredictable weather. But the real test? Pushing through the moments when your mind says “quit” and your body screams “enough.”

    In this episode, Dr. Chris Huff shares:

    • What it really feels like to climb Rainier (spoiler: there’s hail, exhaustion, and moments of doubt).
    • The training regimen that made the difference between stopping halfway and reaching the summit.
    • How physical fitness and mental resilience intertwine when you’re fighting altitude, fatigue, and the elements..
    • Lessons from the mountain that apply to everyday life—whether your “mountain” is a climb, race, health goal, or just keeping up with your kids/grandkids.

    Life is short, and our functional years are even shorter. This episode is about seizing those years, building the fitness to say yes to adventure, and proving to yourself that you can do hard things.

    Top 3 Insights
    • Fitness is freedom. A high VO₂ max and a strong posterior chain aren’t just numbers—they’re your ticket to saying yes to life’s adventures.
    • Pain is temporary, but regret can last forever. Never quit in your lowest moment—rest, refuel, and push through.
    • Everyone has a mountain. Whether it’s a peak, a race, or keeping up with your kids, the preparation—and the reward—are the same.

  • #31: A Conversation on Creatine
    2025/07/03

    In this solo episode, Dr. Chris Huff unpacks the science behind creatine: how it works, who it’s for, and why it’s earned its place as one of the top three most effective supplements on the market. Whether you're an athlete, aging adult, or sleep-deprived parent,

    You'll learn:

    • What creatine actually is, and how your body uses it to rapidly generate energy
    • How the phosphagen system works during short, explosive activity
    • The difference between creatine monohydrate and other trendy forms (spoiler: stick with monohydrate)
    • How creatine supports brain health, mental clarity, and sleep deprivation
    • Dosing, myths, safety, and how to choose a trusted, high-quality supplement

    Creatine isn’t magic, but if you’re putting in the work, it’s a smart ally to have in your corner.

    Top 3 Actionable Takeaways
    • Choose Quality Over Hype: Stick with creatine monohydrate, ideally Creapure, and make sure it’s NSF-certified.
    • Start Small, Stay Consistent: 5g daily is a solid dose. Skip the loading phase if your stomach says no thanks.
    • It’s Not Just for Muscles: Creatine has growing research supporting its cognitive and neuroprotective benefits.
