On this we're throwing it back to the video interview that Canadian Olympic Sprinter Khamica Bingham did with JG Sports Media on February 24, 2021.

Among other things she also spoke about the work that she's been doing with Dr. Alban Merepeza of Port Hope Sports and Rehabilitation Centre.

“When I started seeing Alban, he has been a key component in helping me to stay healthy, helping me to understand why the injury has happened and how to prevent it,” Bingham said. “I’ve been seeing him since 2017 and I’ve been really, really grateful for him. He is my go-to guy and I remember in 2018 I was dealing with my Achilles injury and this is when I’ve already left for Louisiana so there was a bit of distance, but I would still come home and see him regularly for treatment and he brought me to the track in Cobourg. That was just for him to be able to see how my running (was) and if there was anything that could be contributing to the injury or preventing it from not happening again.”

Happy Monday - Here are 7 Ways to Raise your Energy and keep it going for the rest of the week 😊

🚴‍♀️ Exercise Daily - Any exercise or physical activity that gets the heart rate up and the blood flowing and releases endorphins is going to raise your energy level. Good cardiovascular exercises will strengthen your heart and give you more stamina.

🫁 Breathwork - rapid breathing technique activates the breath in short bursts. It’s these active movements that excite the sympathetic nervous system and make you more alert.

🙏Meditate - Practicing brief sessions of Hatha yoga and mindfulness meditation can significantly improve brain function and energy levels, according to a new study from the University of Waterloo

🎤 Sing - singing requires breath control. Belt it for a full song and there’s plenty of extra oxygen pumping to feel energized.

🥰 Give - Pay it forward - Give Kindness- Donate

🌳 Go Outside- Nature Helps to Recenter and Ground you.

🥦 Eat for Energy - eat foods with a low glycemic index.

According to Harvard Health stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. Then, when you call on the muscles for activity, they are weak and unable to extend all the way. That puts you at risk for joint pain, strains, and muscle damage.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are some warm ups you can consider before exercising:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
March on the spot⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Heel digs⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Knee lifts⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Shoulder rolls⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Knee bends

Hot Summer Days are here, so why not enjoy a Super Pretty and Healthy Smoothie. Add some chia seeds for boosted health benefits. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
