It's one thing to go through struggles and it's another to recognize and be able to reflect. There can be triumphs and achievements throughout life and rarely, if ever, is it a trajectory of a straight line. There will be ups and downs, ease, and struggles, and what comes with that is adaptation. First and foremost, you need to step back and be proud of your accomplishments, of how far you have come, of all that you have learned, and the growth that has taken place.
"Your workout today will one day become your warm-up" I like this one because that signifies GROWTH. What seems hard today, will one day be easy.
Yes You Can! Do anything you can dream of.
Wishing you all a Happy New Year full of adventures ✨🎉🌱

🌟 Let's boost our flexibility and well-being! 🧘‍♀️✨

Did you know that a few minutes of stretching each day can work wonders for our bodies and minds? 🌈✨ Whether you're a fitness enthusiast or spend long hours sitting, stretching helps improve flexibility, release tension, and promote better circulation. It's time to make stretching a priority! 💪⭐️😁

Join me on this adventure to prioritize self-care and incorporate stretching into our daily routine. Here are a few tips to get started:

1️⃣ Begin with a gentle warm-up: Engage in light cardio exercises like walking or jogging to prepare your muscles for stretching.

2️⃣ Focus on major muscle groups: Target areas like the neck, shoulders, back, hips, and legs. Hold each stretch for 15-30 seconds, breathing deeply throughout.

3️⃣ Listen to your body: Be mindful of any discomfort and never push yourself too far. Stretching should feel good and rejuvenating, not painful.

4️⃣ Mix it up: Explore different stretching techniques like static stretching, dynamic stretching, or yoga poses. Variety keeps it fun and engaging!

5️⃣ Make it a habit: Schedule dedicated stretching breaks throughout the day, especially if you have a sedentary lifestyle. Your body will thank you!

Remember, stretching isn't just about physical benefits; it also helps reduce stress, increase relaxation, and improve overall posture. Let's embark on this stretching journey together and feel amazing from the inside out! 💛🏞

Resistance training refers to a type of physical activity that enhances both muscle strength and endurance by engaging a specific muscle or group of muscles against external opposition. This type of training can be accomplished through various methods, including utilizing the resistance provided by bodyweight exercises such as push-ups or squats, as well as incorporating equipment like bands, dumbbells, kettlebells, barbells, and similar items into the exercises.
Regular resistance training can increase bone density, improve joint function, enhance cardiovascular health, boost metabolism, and contribute to weight management. Additionally, it can improve insulin sensitivity, promote better sleep quality, enhance cognitive function, and reduce the risk of chronic conditions such as osteoporosis, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes. 🌱🏞🦵💪🏋️‍♀️

Hydrate! Hydrate! Hydrate!
Ensuring an adequate daily intake of water is of utmost importance for various reasons. These include maintaining optimal body temperature regulation, promoting joint lubrication, reducing the risk of infections, facilitating the transportation of nutrients to cells, and supporting proper organ functionality. Additionally, maintaining proper hydration levels contributes to improved sleep quality, enhanced cognitive abilities, and better mood.

Some negative impacts when the body is dehydrated.
Dehydration can have a significant impact on the body. When the body is dehydrated, it doesn't have enough fluid to carry out its normal functions, which can lead to a range of negative effects, including:
1. Fatigue and exhaustion: Dehydration can make you feel tired and sluggish.
2. Reduced physical performance: Dehydration can impact athletic performance,
causing muscle cramps, decreased endurance, and decreased strength.
3. Mental confusion: Dehydration can affect cognitive function, causing confusion
and difficulty concentrating.
4. Headaches: Dehydration can lead to headaches and migraines.
5. Constipation: Dehydration can make stools harder and more difficult to pass.
6. Increased heart rate: Dehydration can cause your heart rate to increase, which can
put a strain on your heart and circulatory system.
7. Decreased urination: Dehydration can lead to decreased urination, which can be a
sign of dehydration.

My WHY to becoming a Personal Fitness Trainer.
I believe in longevity. And I truly believe that everyone deserves a life of longevity, one that is full of adventures. I didn’t know it at the time, however it all started when creating a family of my own, I wanted longevity to witness and relish in the lives of my children. My adventure continued with me becoming certified in Holistic Nutrition. I wanted to help people feel better. I wanted to help people embrace nutritious foods that can provide support to their bodies and fuel all of their life’s adventures. BUT I knew I wasn’t done with learning and gaining more powerful knowledge and I wanted more to offer. I wanted to offer ways to support the body through movement. Through physical activity and through fitness. So, I am enroute and currently finishing up NAIT’s Personal Fitness Trainer program.
We know that nutrition compliments the moving body and the body is made to move. Improving one’s strength can enhance and enrich the quality of life. It can improve performance in sports, everyday activities, and most of all, improve and enhance performance in all of life’s adventures.
Coming this December 2023, please join me for Nutritional Adventures AND Performance guides in providing holistic nutrition and fitness. I can’t wait to be your guide!
Please note, I am still offering nutritional adventure guides and support until I graduate from NAIT to further expand Nutritional Adventures.
Happy Adventures!🌱🏞💪⬆click on the link above

Christine
