Rapid Recovery Longview

You ever have one of those days when you just don't feel like doing anything?

That's why God made B12. 😊

Here's a very simple tip to keep you from ending up in our office for an , or an ER for heat stroke after being outdoors in the southern heat:

In addition to taking frequent breaks from activities and staying well-hydrated, make sure your snacks are hydrating.

That means stay away from things like cookies and pastries, and focus instead of hydrating fruits like cantaloupe, watermelon, and grapes. They have plenty of natural sugars to keep you going, and enough liquid content that you'll get a hydration boost.

Snack smart in this heat!

Dad does not want an IV for Father's Day.

He wants you to get one so he can relax in peace and quiet. Luckily we're open.

🤣

Not about IVs, but might make you feel better!

My workout routine was lower body one day, upper body the next, doing it every day and resting on Sunday.

I switched to a three day rotation of lower body, a 45 minute stretching session the next day, then upper body the third day, then stretching again the next day, and I just keep at that rotation.

When I wake up now I'm not creaky and have no joint or back pain, like I used to.

A "workout" of stretchy stretching seems sorry we**ie, but I feel a hell of a lot better and you might too.

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming... 🤣

Some people get a little uncomfortable when their fluids start entering their bloodstream and say "It's cold".

I bet nobody is gonna say that for a while if they've been outside... 🤣

When I got this container of collagen home Rachel and I both flipped out thinking "Oh hell... There was plastic in this stuff?" 🤦🏻‍♂️

Of course they're talking about the packaging, but it reminded me that we probably never looked at all the ingredients.

The lesson? Don't just buy a supplement or vitamin (OR GET AN IV) without knowing EVERYTHING that's in it. You never know.

Today on our franchise questionnaire we were asked how much money it takes to outfit a location to launch a Rapid Recovery.

I answered "Depends on whether or not you can talk your wife into doing the painting."

🤣 Certainly have come a long way since those days.

Well, I was prepared to talk about healthy, hydrating snacks for summer weather in the South, like watermelon and grapes, but you aren't going outside in this dreary mess, so screw it. Have the pastry. You can't go through life with no joy whatsoever or else you're working hard for nothing.

Walk-ins til 4 today.

Get it? 🤣

It astounds me how often otherwise intelligent people will come to us for an IV after a round of golf, completely dehydrated because they didn't drink enough water while playing, didn't stay in the shade when possible, and wore dark sun-grabbing clothing.

We're in the South and it's summer... clubs aren't the only gear you need on a day like today.
