Tips for stronger structure and healthier you

Blog, Studio

A healthy structure is the “backbone” of a happy and active lifestyle!

Pun intended 😉

A good, strong #structure is one of the 4 pillars of health. A strong structure leads to core strength, smooth circulation, decreased pain & injury reduction, and ability to have an active and fit lifestyle.

Are you frustrated about:

  • aches and pains?
  • being stuck on a fitness plateau?
  • rate of improvement?
  • illness or injuries?

Would you like to:

  • move easier?
  • have less aches and pains?
  • get over the humps?
  • stay healthier?

Challenge: whether you are an avid cross-fitter or you have no exercise routine try to incorporate 1-3 days per week of pilates or yoga.

Check out my wellness partners for recommendations.

Expected results:

  • More fluid movement
  • Less pain and injuries
  • Improved energy
  • Improved mindset

Proper alignment results in better circulation, nerve communication, and cellular health so everything from your circulatory system to your gut to your immune function may see positive results.

It is hard to move forward with fitness goals if your body is not in or alignment, and the core support system is not strong.

Have you incorporated yoga or Pilates into your routine?

Proper body alignment and core strength positively effect all aspects of health and fitness. Improved circulation, fluid movement, flexibility, and greater strength can get you the results you have been looking for.

Yoga has been known for centuries for its effects on flexibility and fluid movement. It stimulates production of spinal fluid helping to protect joints and decrease pain. Some yoga routines increase core strength, decrease stress, and improve focus.

The principles of movement taught during Pilates exercises are easily translated in to every day movement so that the work stays in your body throughout the day. Ideally with regular practice of Pilates all the joints of the body become more balanced in strength and flexibility resulting in more comfortable and safer movement.

Deep thoughts (or not) 😂 because I am a mom and I’m not sure I have deep thoughts anymore lol!
