Nails it!

Nails it!

If you find an activity you enjoy, and you can do it consistently, that is fantastic

More people need to move and exercise, and there are a variety of ways that you can do this

So if you can find something that you actually enjoy doing, that makes the process a whole lot easier!

However, when talking about overall health benefits, if I could pick only ONE form of exercise, it would be resistance training because it brings so much to the table

Here are just a few of the benefits that come with it:

- Increased muscle mass
- Increased muscle strength and power
- Improved tendon and ligament size and strength
- Improved mental health and mood
- Increased energy
- Pain relief/management
- Improved cognitive function
- Decreased cognitive decline in older adults
- Improved body composition (more lean muscle, less fat)
- Improved metabolic rate (from increased lean body mass/muscle)
- Improved insulin sensitivity
- Decreased likelihood of developing Type 2 Diabetes
- Prevention of age-related muscle loss
- Improved bone density
- Improved cardiovascular health (heart health and circulation)
- Improved quality of life
- Decreased likelihood of injury
- Improved motor skills
- Decreased risk of falls
- Improved mobility
- Improved self-efficacy and confidence

Need I say more?

This is why, even if you don’t enjoy it (at least at the beginning), I will always strongly recommend that EVERYONE should participate in some form of resistance training at least 2-3x/week

And although I love lifting weight, that is not the ONLY kind of resistance training

Here are some other options (not all-inclusive):

- Band resistance training
- Suspension training (TRX, etc)
- Bodyweight training
- Pilates
- Swimming
- Rowing
- Sprinting
- Sandbag training
- Plyometric training (jumping, throwing etc)

GREEN

Looking for a green drink that is legit?

Vital Body Triplex is a phenomenal food supplement that I am head over heels for!

Triplex increases PEAK Performance, Endurance, and Recovery!

Finally, an Informed Sport Certified, NON-GMO, Gluten Free, Keto Friendly, non clumpy, green formula that tastes good!

I take 2 scoops in 24 oz of water every morning before my strength session for enhanced energy levels with micronutrients from fruits and vegetables, focus, collagen, creatine, protein and probiotics. It's favored by many athletes including the Phoenix Suns before workouts!

Triplex, 3-In-1 Power Packed Powder includes daily greens, micronutrients from 37 whole fruits and vegetables, (like eating the nutrients of one whole pound of broccoli) Vital Body uses red light therapy for nutrient preservation, so the nutrition is not destroyed during processing of plant to powder. It also has a clean Pre/Intra/Post workout that doesn’t make you feel jittery. OH THE ENERGY! It provides 18 grams of hydrolyzed marine collagen peptides (protein), 2 g. creatine, 15 strands of probiotics, proteolytic enzymes to heal your gut microbiome, 10 ounces of tart cherry juice to cut inflammation like a knife, s you can heal faster for your next workout!
This company, Vital Body, is local to Arizona. They are a passionate power couple who takes pride in developing a super high quality product as a small company. They focuses on quality ingredients for food supplements and refuse to buy low grade synthetic options. They don’t mass market, but instead rely on educated and qualified health professionals, like me, to promote their product. To which, I am honored to do, because it’s legit.
Ahren and I use The Triplex 3 in 1, but there are other Vital Body products worth reviewing on their website.

First of all…

Let me just say that the intent of this post is NOT at all meant to be insensitive to or condemning people suffering or who are in pain

On the contrary, it is to help you realize that pain is complex and that there are MULTIPLE contributing factors as to why pain persists long after you thought it should be gone (or at least more under control)

Of course, as a physical therapist, I am a HUGE fan of exercise and movement when it comes to overcoming pain and injury, but if you ignore or are ignorant to all of the other things that could be playing a part (many times a LARGE part) in your pain experience, you’ll end up frustrated and confused as to why you aren’t getting better

Some things that you may have not thought of that may contribute:

- Fear of movement
- Post-traumatic stress
- Depression
- Lack of sleep
- Anxiety/stress
- Poor social support
- Autoimmune disorders
- Poor understanding of the condition
- Repetitive movements or postures
- Poor diet and/or hydration
- Excessive worry or constant focus on the pain
- Catastrophizing (always thinking the worst)
- Training errors/poor workout programming

If you’ve found yourself wondering why you’re not improving like you should be (and you’ve been medically cleared of any significant red flags), consider other reasons why that might be (maybe even some things from the list above)

Those might just be crucial to helping you overcome the painful issue you can’t seem to get past!

If you're ready to stop the endless pain cycle and finally take the steps needed to reclaim your life, I'd love to help guide you along the way 🙏🏼

Magnesium is a magnificent mineral that actively participates in hundreds of biochemical reactions that impact our mood, muscles, nerves, bones, blood sugar, digestive health, weight and even our ability to detoxify! Although its widely distributed in many plant foods, especially dark greens, beans, legumes, nuts and seeds, our soils may not be as rich in this vital mineral as they used to be. Most people just don't get enough. If you're having any of these symptoms, it's worth it to investigate magnesium deficiency as a root cause!
