We are built to MOVE
Do you ever feel stiff or creaky? Perhaps, after sitting for long periods of time you notice it takes a little warm-up time before you can move freely once again without all the snap, crackle, and pop!
Scientists have long recognised the profound connection between physical activity and our overall well-being. The evidence is clear -movement is vital for our physical health and plays a crucial role in nurturing our mental and emotional state. The relationship between the mind and body proves that exercise is a powerful tool to enhance our quality of life.
In the natural world, movement is indispensable for survival, communication, and establishing connections. The intricate interplay between our bodies and brains is evident in every action we undertake, from the subtle flexing of our fingers to the endurance required for running a marathon. This profound connection between body and mind is the bedrock of our well-being.
However, in our increasingly tech-driven world, sedentary living has become alarmingly prevalent.
This shift has adverse effects on movement and is taking a toll on our physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
Imagine moving through your day fully present in every inch of your body, to carry out unrestricted movements with ease. You can stretch, twist, and bend without any pain or stiffness, take long walks, stand for extended periods, and generally go about your daily life without feeling the need to sit down and rest having full mobility. When you have good mobility and strength, you should experience no strain or pain as you move through your day.
Mobility and strength are fundamental functions needed for men and women of all ages and fitness levels. Once these improve, your energy, drive, and ability to enjoy other areas of life increases. Moving freely also contributes to maintaining muscle mass, strength, and flexibility, all vital aspects for a long and healthy life.
Creating and maintaining a good, strong posture requires a balance of muscle strength, joint mobility, and overall balance. The right exercise can significantly contribute to improving and maintaining proper posture which reduces the risks of falls and injuries. Insure your future self and if you are not already, invest in training with a FORM Personal Trainer. Life will forever be significantly more enjoyable.
