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!

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.

Finding Presence Through Movement
Tuesday Jul 19, 2022
Tuesday Jul 19, 2022
When was the last time you were truly focused and 100% engaged with what was in front of you? Being present is one of the most challenging things we can do in our often over-stimulated and over-worked society. We value quantity over quality, but that can change. We can use consistent movement as an opportunity to show up and be present for ourselves so that we can be more present in other areas of our lives.
