Honest Review: Healthy Gut's Digestive Enzymes
Gut health is something I pay close attention to, both for myself and with my clients, so when Healthy Gut sent me their digestive enzyme supplement, HoloZyme, to try, I was genuinely curious to see how it would fit into my routine.
First Impressions
Healthy Gut was built around the idea of closing the gap between what the research on gut health actually shows and what most supplement companies put on the shelf. That focus shows up in the product itself: a clean, well-formulated enzyme blend without a long list of unnecessary fillers.
How It Worked for Me
I started taking HoloZyme with meals, and noticed less bloating and a general feeling of easier digestion, especially after heavier or richer meals. As someone who trains and eats a lot of protein-dense meals, having a digestive enzyme that actually supports breaking down carbs, fats, and protein made a noticeable difference in how I felt afterward.
The Verdict
I liked this product and would recommend it to anyone looking to support their digestion, whether that's occasional bloating, heavier meals, or just wanting extra digestive support day to day. It's a simple addition to a routine that delivered a real, noticeable benefit.

Nunorm: Minimalist Shoes for Natural Movement
Foot health matters more in training than most people realize, and Nunorm is built around minimalist, natural-movement footwear that lets your feet function the way they're supposed to instead of being locked into a stiff, overly-cushioned shoe.

If you've never tried a barefoot-style shoe before, it's worth easing into it, but the payoff for foot strength and stability is real.

Ultrahuman Ring: Sleep and Recovery Tracking That Actually Fits Your Life
Wearable recovery tracking has come a long way, and the Ultrahuman Ring is one of the most discreet ways to do it. Instead of a bulky wrist tracker, you get sleep, recovery, and readiness data from a device you can wear all day without thinking about it.
For anyone training seriously, understanding your recovery state before you walk into the gym is just as important as the workout itself. If you're guessing whether today should be a hard day or a rest day, a tool like this takes the guesswork out.

Hume Health: A Smarter Way to Track Body Composition
Most scales only tell you one number, and it's usually the least useful one. Hume Health's smart scale is built to give you a fuller picture, tracking body composition trends over time instead of just weight day to day. That distinction matters if you're training for body composition changes rather than just chasing a number on a scale.
Pairing a smart scale with your training log gives you a much clearer sense of whether your program is actually working, especially over months rather than days.

As always, check product details and consult a healthcare provider if you have questions about how any recovery product fits your specific routine.

Othership: Breathwork, Sauna & Cold Plunge in Yorkville (Save 11% + Get a Free Month)
If you haven't tried breathwork, sauna, or cold plunge classes yet, Othership in Yorkville is one of the best ways to start. It's part fitness, part recovery, part mental reset, built around guided breathwork sessions paired with heat and cold exposure. The format is simple: you move through hot and cold stations with a facilitator guiding your breath the entire time, and you leave feeling like you hit reset on your nervous system in a way a regular gym session just doesn't deliver.
What makes Othership different from a typical spa day is the structure. Every class is coached, so you're never just sitting in a sauna wondering what to do next. The breathwork component is the through-line: it's what turns a hot-cold circuit into something that actually shifts your stress response, rather than just feeling nice in the moment. For anyone dealing with training stress, work stress, or general burnout, that combination of breath, heat, and cold is one of the more effective resets available in the city right now.
What makes it worth trying now is the offer. Use code TRAINITRIGHT for 11% off the intro offer, an intro 3-pack, a single drop-in, or the 5, 10, 25, and 50-class packs at the Toronto (Yorkville) location.
