Painting, Art, consciousness, professionalism, etc. I was honored and delighted to speak with Brian Rutenberg. He's collected the low-country humidity and marshlands, and blended them with his New York city work ethic and charisma. What has resulted is some of the most vibrant and intriguing abstracted landscape paintings one can see. Please enjoy our talk, and thanks for stopping by.

Building from the Ground Up with ATG
In this episode, I give you the foundations of addressing the knee by starting at the ground with the feet, calves, and tibialis.
Please share this with anyone who has knee issues. I don't address the knee in particular here, but will be doing so in another episode. This provides a foundation which will give us permission to build the knee while strengthening these weak links below.
