Access Nutrients has created a supplement designed to assist with better absorption of zinc, iron, calcium, and magnesium.
This is a heavily researched and science-backed supplement, that helps to break down the anti-nutrient phytate. Phytate is present on all beans, grains, nuts, and seeds and any product made from these foods (pasta, rice, chickpeas, nut butters, whole wheat flour, cereals, etc). Without the enzyme, the above-mentioned micronutrients are largely unavailable for absorption, leading to deficiencies.
Without enough iron, our body struggles to transport oxygen. Without zinc, our body's immune system is impaired and many enzymatic processes cannot function normally. This enzyme has already helped a number of athletes with better performance, improved energy, anemia, fatigue, and other conditions.
Have a read through the research on the site for more info, but trust us when we say that this enzyme could be a game-changer for athletes when it comes to optimizing performance.

Movement Is Therapeutic, Not Therapy
Tuesday Oct 11, 2022
Tuesday Oct 11, 2022
World Mental Health Day was On October 10th, and this creates the perfect opportunity to discuss the role of exercise in our mental health. Taylor breaks down what a consistent movement practice can do for our mental health, as well as the ways it won't serve us.
What Exercise Isn't:
- It isn't therapy. Although it can certainly be therapeutic.
- It is not a way for us to "outrun our demons".
What Exercise Is:
- It is a way to engage and be present amidst a constant barrage of distractions and responsibilities.
- It's a way to build applicable skills to help you thrive in all areas of your life.

Using Communication as a Tool to Be a Better Athlete
Tuesday Sep 13, 2022
Tuesday Sep 13, 2022
No matter what we do or the roles we play in our daily lives, we all have to be good communicators. Communication is a critical skill that must be consistently refined and sharpened. While we often think about communication in the workplace and at home, we don't typically consider communication skills when it comes to our lives as athletes. This is where there's an opportunity to apply these skills to show up and get the most out of being an athlete.
Key topics are:
How to communicate more effectively with yourself.
- Work on being proactive with your time and energy.
- Use exercise to be present and communicate what your body needs.
- Listen to your body.
- Reconnect with your why.
How we communicate with others.
- Understand your influence tactics and power dynamics.
- The importance of asking for support.
- Having a team in place and communicating with them effectively.

Redefining Hard
Tuesday Aug 16, 2022
Tuesday Aug 16, 2022
What we need to understand is that everyone's "hard" is different. An athlete is not defined by how long, tough, or physically demanding their pursuits are. What's required to commit to the pursuit itself, no matter the length, speed, or how tough something is; that's what's hard!
The new hard is as follows:
1 - Commitment to yourself, your goals, and your full potential.
2 - The mindset required to understand that motivation is fleeting, but discipline is what will get you to your goal.
3 - Consistency over long periods of time accomplished by building the habits necessary to stick with it.
