Oh!Mino - December 2020

HOW OUR PRODUCT GAVE SHARON COLETTA’S TRAINING REGIMEN A BOOST TRAINING FOR A MARATHON? OH!MINO COULD BE YOUR SECRET WEAPON

“For those first two months I was really straining. I always had sore muscles and was managing my sore knee,” Sharon says. “It was really hard dragging myself out to run, but once I started taking Oh!mino, for the rest of the training, I just started flying without any pain and without problems.” Sharon took our stimulant-free Muscle Synthesis Activator before every run, and when her distance crept over 8 miles, she added another dose afterward. “It would just completely help recover my muscles,” she says. “It was miraculous, actually.” After using Oh!mino, Sharon’s joint pain disappeared. She was shocked at the difference but thrilled that she’d be able to run the half-marathon without worrying about her knee. Recalling the day of the race, she says, “It was just amazing how much energy I had.” Today, Sharon still uses Oh!mino when she runs, and her husband is also hooked on the product. He’s in his 60s but has no problem running or lifting

Every October, Sharon Coletta’s church gathers a group of runners together for a half-marathon race to raise money for a local food bank. For years, Sharon watched the group train and dreamed about joining them. But she was out of shape and busy with her accounting job. Finally, in 2018, she made it work! She signed up for the team and started training that May. Immediately, Sharon hit roadblocks. The training was exhausting, and she struggled with joint pain in her knee that made it hard to run long distances. At 54, she figured that was “just the way it was” — until Michael’s wife introduced her to Oh!mino.

weights. Sharon says using our powders and capsules keeps them both “strong and fit" and that the results are almost impossible to believe. “I didn’t really believe it myself at first. I’m a vitamin taker, and normally it’s a gradual thing. You take vitamins and they improve your nutrition in a gradual, holistic way. It’s like food — you eat well and eventually you start feeling better. But the results of these amino acids are pretty immediate,” she says. We’re thrilled that Oh!mino gave Sharon the boost she needed to raise money for a great cause. It doesn't get much better than that!

4 TIPS TO BUY THE

RIGHT SHOES FOR YOU

Buying the wrong shoes can have a profound impact on your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and lower back. If you don’t get the right support, it can affect the health of several areas throughout your legs. Adversely, buying good shoes can help you maintain better health through these same areas. It just comes down to finding the “right” shoes. There isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach to shoe-buying because everyone has unique feet and shoe needs. It’s not as easy as just stopping by the shoe store, finding a pair you like, and calling it a day. You need shoes for specific activities that give you ample support and comfort. Here are four steps you can take on your journey to find that perfect fit. Consult your PT. Your physical therapist is a gait specialist. They understand walking and how your motor systems can work effectively and efficiently. They can tell you what you need to know before you buy a pair, and they can work with you to get the most out of those shoes. Consult a shoe expert. If there is one reason to visit a brick-and- mortar sporting or shoe store, it’s to consult with a shoe expert. You want to work with someone who will actually help you find the right shoes and isn’t just interested in making a quick sale.

Take your time. It’s okay if you don’t immediately find the right shoes. You may have to visit more than one store before you find the ideal pair. You may be tempted to buy a pair of off-the-shelf orthotics in order to call it a day, but even that can be problematic. Consider custom orthotics. Buyer beware: There are a lot of bad orthotics out there. Once again, consult with your PT to determine your best next steps when it comes to shoe orthotics. You don’t want to spend money on something that won’t help in the short term and long term. Your PT can help ensure you’re getting the proper foot and complete leg support you need.
