The further you are from your Adonis Golden Ratio, the more painstakingly difficult, losing fat and building lean muscle becomes because you’re not in the form your evolutionary genetics intended for you to be in.
Simply put; the further away you are from this Ratio, the more difficult the struggle becomes to make any noticeable progress.
We often get asked about the difference between wetsuits and drysuits. In episode 190, Zach talks about drysuits and what to wear underneath these suits for rafting. Check out the Immersion Research union suits at https://immersionresearch.com/collections/mens-layering.

Park Junkie joins Jonny Zion and a band of brazen boatmen to explore 280 miles of the Colorado River, right through the heart of Grand Canyon National Park.
The journey took 17 days and provided an intimate introduction to the Grand Canyon’s most remote and rarely explored points of interest.
Water levels were high, as the 22/23 winter was the snowiest on record in many of the mountains whose runoff feed the Colorado, so our crew was blessed with a continuous 18,000 cubic feet per second (cfs) for the canyon’s entire length.
The rapids were big & a few were downright scary. While the canyon allowed safe passage on this voyage, we were not completely spared carnage, as Lava Falls struck with a quick but jarring uppercut that provided enough excitement for the entire journey.
We ran with 7 boats, an 18’ dory & a collection of rafts, all of which were outfitted by Brian Gillespe at Jordan River Boat Works, headquartered in Francis, Utah. Check out his lineup of boats & accessories via his Instagram page: @jordanriverboatworks
Enjoy the film, and if you’d like to learn more about the world’s Grandest Canyon, check out my guide to the park, right here at https://parkjunkie.com/parks/grand-canyon/
Please be aware, public access to the Grand Canyon is currently under threat. Entrenched bureaucrats have teamed up with corporate interests to restrict access to the park’s entire northwestern rim, requiring rec dot gov reservations and permits to enter a remote and rarely visited section of the park known as Toroweap.
Toroweap is a beautiful area, and offers the adventurous traveler the most spectacular of Grand Canyon views. It lies at the end of a 60-mile, one-way dirt road, and receives little traffic.
Concerned citizens can write their elected officials to protest this move, and can use forms I have provided in the links below.

What’s up guys, Jeff from Sorta Healthy here! In today’s video, I’m reviewing the Stretch Coach Certification by Brad Walker. I’ve been waiting for a definitive assisted stretching certification for a good while now!
For those who don’t know assisted stretching is a service that personal trainers, massage therapists, and other related professionals can offer. Assisted stretching can be beneficial for improving flexibility, improving posture, reducing stress, reducing the chances of injury, and a whole bunch of other things too.
As of right now, StretchLab is the biggest and most wide spread business to offer assisted stretching as their main service. StretchLab is growing at a pretty impressive rate, and because of that we end up talking about them a fair amount in this video. It also just so happens that Brad Walker, who created the stretch coach course also created the flexologist program that assisted stretching practitioners at the StretchLab need to take before working with clients.
I also break down my thoughts on manual stretching scope of practice for personal trainers. It’s a bit of a grey area for sure.
All of this information makes for an interesting discussion concerning things we don’t usually talk about here at Sorta Healthy!
As always, we appreciate you checking out this video and your continued support! If you liked this video and want to see more like it, please remember to hit the like button and subscribe to the channel as it does help us to grow!

While multiple signs are displayed along the American River discouraging boating, rafting and swimming below Folsom Lake, the situation above Folsom Lake is very different. Demand is high for guided whitewater rafting trips in the churning, rolling, fast-moving conditions throughout the Foothills. “People are coming out to phenomenal conditions. They’ve never seen anything like this,” said Chad Richards of Wet River Trips. “This is a once-in-a-decade, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.” The river flows through Coloma are among the top five conditions since 1998, according to Richards. KCRA 3’s Mike TeSelle reports.

One of the best wilderness rafting rivers in California, the Middle Fork of the American features world-famous Class 3 and 4 rapids inside a 2000-foot deep canyon. This river is just a short drive from Sacramento, yet is completely remote. Come along, as we explore the top 5 rapids on the Middle Fork!
In the number 5 spot is Chunder. The Class 4 rating for this short and abrupt rapid comes from an exciting six foot drop at the top. Paddlers line up their raft, then get down to ride out the plunge. Crewmembers must quickly get back into position, as Ruck-A-Chucky Falls lies just below.
Coming in at number 4 is the infamous Ruck-A-Chucky Falls. Instead of running this Class 6 rapid in the rafts, guests hike around it on the shore and watch our guides send the boats down empty. “Why?” you ask? Well for starters, it’s a 30-foot waterfall that cascades over sharp, shallow rocks. Ruck-A-Chucky portage is quite the spectacle and a highlight of each trip.
Number 3 is Kanaka. This technical Class 4 rapid will put your crew’s skills to the test. It’s got drops, rocks, bumps, and waves, and is a great example of what makes California’s rapids so famous
Second place goes to Bus Crash (aka Lettuce Hole). Rafts navigate this Class 4 rapid through a shallow entrance, before paddling between two large rocks and into a wave train at the bottom. Run this rapid well, and you’ll have a blast. Make a mistake, and you’ll know where this rapid got its name from!
Our top rapid on the Middle Fork is undoubtedly Tunnel Chute. This legendary Class 4+ rapid was created by Gold Rush miners, who blasted a narrow chute and a wide tunnel through a mountain to divert the river and access large gold deposits. It’s an absolute roller coaster! After lining up at the top, paddlers sit in the bottom of the boat to enjoy the ride. After the final drop, the river calms down and rafts continue through the river tunnel toward more adventure ahead.
The Middle Fork has many other memorable rapids that can be enjoyed on a 1, 2, or 3-day wilderness trip. If you’ve rafted this stunning river before, let us know your favorite rapid in the comments. If you have yet to explore this California whitewater gem, visit our website or give us a call. We’ll see you on the river!

🤰🏽 Pregnancy insomnia? Don’t lose hope! Try these tips for better sleep:
☀️ Number 1 tip: Get morning sunlight! This is THE most impactful practice to get a good night’s sleep. That’s because the bright light starts our nocturnal melatonin production sooner, and we enter into sleep more easily at night. Bright morning light has been effective against insomnia, premenstrual syndrome, and even seasonal affective disorder because morning light also boosts are serotonin production.
🍒🥜 Eat 1 oz of pistachios and drink 1 cup of tart cherry juice daily. They’re rich in melatonin, the hormone that helps us sleep. Studies show that tart cherry juice can increase sleep time by up to 90 minutes a night! 🙌
💆♀️ Try topical magnesium, a calming mineral that can be applied directly to your skin for better sleep. Over 80% of us are deficient in this important mineral.
🚫📱 Turn off blue light 2 hours before bed or use blue light blocking sunglasses while watching TV. Blue light disrupts melatonin production and signals our body to stay awake.
💤 When all else fails, try 2 drops of Cedarwood oil on your big toe. Dilute two drops of Cedarwood in 2 tsps of lotion and apply it to each of your big toes for a peaceful sleep. Don’t forget, Lavender and Roman Chamomile are also pregnancy-friendly essential oils that support relaxation and good sleep.
