Hot and cold: How do we know when to use each?

A quick way to determine which to use is to think of what you need. If you need pain relief ice is great. If you need to loosen up, heat is great.

Just remember if it’s an injury no heat for the first 48 hours.

Many people think that stretching is only for their muscles. But what if their stiffness isn’t coming from the muscles at all?

Fascia covers every muscle, nerve, and organ in our bodies. When it’s tight, the effects can be seen throughout our whole body. This is why fascia stretch therapy(FST) is important. So what exactly is FST?

Motivation is what drives us to make decisions, especially when looking at healthy living. Motivation helps us choose how we want to live. Are we exercising because we enjoy it? Are we exercising to improve our health? Do we play sports for fun or the possibility of medals and awards?

Knowing the type of motivation driving us can help to maintain our progress towards goals. Those with an intrinsic motivation approach are more likely to maintain habits and achieve goals. Those with an extrinsic motivation approach can still do so but may find it harder to remain consistent.

Consider which motivation approach you use most.

The rotator cuff is a key group of muscles we use in some capacity everyday. It’s commonly talked about in the fitness industry but what does it do?

Remember SITS to know what these muscles are.

A high level of sedentary behaviour can negatively impact health no matter your body weight, diet, and physical activity. In a 2009 study, Canadian adults that spent most of their time sitting were 50% more at risk of death than those that sit less, even after controlling for age, smoking, and physical activity levels.

It is important to minimize passive sedentary behaviours throughout the day as much as possible. Even small increases in activity levels and energy usage can improve our health. Minimizing passive sedentary behaviours is a great way to begin without having to work about major lifestyle changes.

Start with a small change such as switching from 3 hours of television to 2.5 hours and go from there. Try a new hobby during that time. Or go for a walk. Or read a book. Or whatever makes you happy

With 2025 a few days away I’m sure we’re all preparing for the question: “What’s your New Year’s resolution?”

The key to achieving our resolutions and goals is to make sure they follow the SMART Goals principle. This principle helps us break down exactly how and when we will achieve our goal.

With this in mind, what’s your 2025 SMART Goal?

Physical activity shouldn’t be boring. There are so many options available, so you shouldn't waste your time forcing yourself to do one that doesn’t bring you joy.

Take a step out of your comfort zone to try something new.

Be sure to share in the comments what you like doing as physical activity!

The World Health Organization definitions highlight how different health and wellness are.

That said they work together to achieve overall healthy living. What you do to improve one will often improve the other.

Take time today and reflect on how your health and wellness are currently. What can you do to improve or maintain one? What can you do to improve or maintain both?
