I’m really not very productive, focused, or relaxed unless I can go to a nice, quiet place (like my backyard, shown in the videos below) and do a series of precise stretches, every morning, no matter what.
And I do the same stretches every morning.
When you start your day with a stretch, especially if you can do so in a quiet or serene location, your completely de-stress your body and prepare your mind for productivity.
When you start your day with a stretch, you’re also more likely to exercise later in the day.
So here is the exact stretch routine that I do every morning, no matter what. It takes me about 6-8 minutes, and I hold each stretch for 8-10 seconds.

It seems like the older I get, the more picky I get about my underwear choices. And while I typically like to focus on nutrition, fat loss and human performance here at BenGreenfieldFitness.com, I just have to do my part for males everywhere and express a few serious thoughts about healthy men’s underwear.
When it comes to men’s underwear, I don’t ask too much. I have five simple criteria:
1) My Underwear Must Move With Me. I’m an active guy, and I walk and move around quite a bit. I stand up, sit down, So I want men’s underwear that doesn’t bunch up, make funky looking lines underneath my pants, ride up into my crotch or gather in the crease of my butt. And I don’t want to have to adjust, tuck or shift my underwear to ensure that doesn’t happen – I want my underwear to effortlessly move for me and with me. In other words, I need men’s underwear that is versatile enough to wear in the office, to a workout, and under jeans or shorts..
2) My Underwear Must Not Chafe. Sometimes in the middle of a work day, I find myself walking into a gym to lift weights, hopping on a bicycle for a quick ride, heading out on a lunchtime run, or getting into a pick-up game of basketball or tennis. Unfortunately, the seams and cut on an average pair of men’s underwear like cotton boxers or briefs absolutely guarantees to wreak havoc on my sensitive male sections during these midday efforts, leaving me needing to either A) inconveniently be forced to purchase and pack both my “workout” underwear and my “office” underwear or B) squirt and smear messy anti-chafing cream into every crack and crevice or C) be cringing from the needling, chafing-induced pain that has me gritting my teeth as soon as shower soap hits my scarred underside.

If you sit, drive, do computer work or watch TV more than an hour a day, there’s a good chance you have muscle imbalances. In podcast #108, I interviewed one of my friends, Rick Kaselj, who is a very bright kinesiologist, exercise physiologist and personal trainer. Rick has spent his professional career helping clients recover from injury, manage chronic conditions and prevent injury through exercise. Rick is a kinesiologist, exercise physiologist and personal trainer. The key that has lead to Rick’s success has been addressing muscle imbalances in his clients.
