One woman’s struggle with marathon addiction
Last year, I had a consultation with a 27-year-old woman named Allison. She’s a marathoner who’s been suffering from what I call “Athletic Fatigue.” I’d been treating Allison off and on over the last two years for a series of problems, including Hip pain, back pain, and plantar fasciitis (foot pain). Lately she’d been getting [...]

Start living stronger, leaner, and better!
Welcome. My name is Dr. Glenn Hyman. This site represents the evolution of my clinical nutrition and exercise-based chiropractic practice in Denver, Colorado. Our programs offer natural solutions for issues such as:
- Weight loss for men and women
- Low testosterone/ fatigue/ aging male syndrome
- Natural treatment for high cholesterol
- Adrenal Fatigue / Chronic Stress Syndrome
- Endurance Sports Performance Training
- Strength and conditioning programs
Somehow, the medical industry in the US has convinced millions of people that prescription drugs are required to live a “healthy” life. We think that in most cases this is b.s. Since 1998, we’ve helped thousands of people live stronger, leaner, and better lives with simple changes to diet, exercise and lifestyle habits.
We can work with you in person if you’re local to Denver, or over the phone if you live outside of Denver. The Stronger-Leaner-Better approach is built around 3 cornerstones:
- Comprehensive evaluation of your present state of health
- Cleaning up your diet and creating a nutrition plan to meet your goals
- Implementing a strength and/or endurance exercise program based on your specific needs
Take your time looking around the site and seeing what we’re about. If you want to learn more about the comprehensive Personal Programs check out the Personal Programs page.

So, I'm not sure how it all happened, but I ended up enrolling in the CrossFit Endurance Class at CF CrossFit North Fort Collins a few weekends ago (April 7&8, 2012).

So I've been around the Strength and Conditioning block...

Repeat the mono mantra. Choosing monounsaturated fats instead of saturated fats for protection against brain damage from silent strokes. So, spread peanut butter (or the more sophisticated walnut, avocado, almond or cashew butter—note, yes we know walnuts have 6 times more omega-3’s than any other nut) instead of cream cheese on some celery or apple slices; olive oil and vinegar instead of Ranch or bleu cheese dressing on your salad; and a small handful (6 to 12 halves) of w...

I (Glenn) am back in the office after a week stay-cation in Denver. We spent a day at the zoo, a day at the Rockies game, and I got a lot of riding and running in. Two weekends ago, I (Glenn) completed the CrossFit Endurance certification class in Fort Collins.
It was a very interesting introduction to a different methodology for training for endurance sports, like triathlons and marathons. Think: less volume and more intensity. Anyway, I’m completing the Level 1 CrossFit certification in M... Read More
