MovEvolution Heal, Move & Evolve Podcast

What is aerobic fitness and how do we measure it? How does New York stress affect you? How much activity do we need to counteract our stress? What can you do now to manage stress and get more fit at the same time? I had a delightful interview with my guest, colleague and friend, Steve Horney, Physical Therapist, Strength and Conditioning Coach and Manual Therapist and owner of Integrated Physical Therapy. We discuss Steve’s career and development, his Buddhist-like philosophy, being “human” and the relationship between aerobic fitness and stress. ______________________ 00:00 - intro 03:10 - Steve’s evolution of diet and routine 08:50 - Meditation 14:55 - How Richard met Steve 19:10 - About Steve 35:00 - Making connections 36:20 - Foundations of health (8 pillars of health) 38:50 - FCA (functional capacity assessment) 42:15 - break 42:45 - What gets Steve up in the morning 46:35 - Steve’s metamorphosis 47:55 - Steve’s Buddhist principles 52:30 - Fulfillment of service to the people 53:20 - Educating the patient 1:00:50 - Stevens Mantra to get through the day and Spiritual Icon 1:03:15 - break 1:04:15 - The relationship between aerobic activity and stress (Main Topic) 1:12:08 - How Steve’ explains the relationship between aerobic activity and stress to the client 1:16:30 - How Steve measures Aerobic fitness and options for clients to do to help with activity tracking 1:18:25 - Variables that determines stress 1:21:20 - Relation to stress based on activity 1:22:55 - Acknowledgement of emotion 1:24:35 - Balance of aerobic conditioning and strength training 1:26:40 - How Steve educated clients on monitoring for future maintenance 1:30:15 - Placebo effect (Perceived vs real aerobic fitness responses) 1:31:20 - Steve’s “Ah ha” moment (clients realization of qualifications) 1:33:20 - First steps to help with fitness level and controlling stress 1:35:50 - Elimination Diet 1:36:35 - fermentability 1:38:40 - Reducing overall stress in the body 1:41:50 - increase oxytocin and lower cortisol 1:42:45 - breath effects your ph 1:43:20 - Dr. Rucios Stages of diet 1:44:25 - How to contact Steven 1:46:05 - Outro Steve Horney graduated from Quinnipiac University's top-ranked accelerated Masters program and began his clinical practice in 2005.

Steve has been seen on CBS Newspath, and specializes in the assessment and treatment of athletes with the ultimate goal of helping them become pain free and less susceptible to injury in the future. He works with each of his patients one-on-one to help them understand the root cause of their pain.
