Mark Rippetoe once said “strong people are harder to kill and more useful in general.” His funny and passionate statement was really his enthusiasm for strength training or what we call resistance training.

So what exactly is resistance training, you might ask? It’s simply exercising against some sort of resistance, whether it’s weights, bands, or your own bodyweight. Resistance training not only strengthens your muscles, but it also helps prevent injury, improve posture, and increase bone density.

But the benefits don't stop there. If you're looking to shed some pounds, resistance training is the way to go in my opinion and here’s why:

- Lifting weights increases your metabolism, which means you'll continue to burn calories long after your workout is over.
- Plus, by building lean muscle, you're setting your body up to burn even more calories throughout the day.
- And let's not forget about the muscle gain! Want toned arms to show off in those summer tank tops? Resistance training can help with that too.

So stop ONLY doing CARDIO and pick up some heavy weights for your health. It make you stronger and more useful too lol!

Mobility:

Two years ago I went through the Pain-Free Performance Specialist Certification by Dr. John Rusin and it completely changed my views on mobility and strength. Mobility is not just about being flexible, it is about having the ability to move freely and pain-free through a full range of motion.

Mobility plays a huge role in strength and longevity. When we have limited mobility, we are more prone to injuries and pain which can hinder our ability to stay active as we age. But on the flip side, when we have proper mobility, we can perform exercises with better form and increase our overall strength. It's the perfect combination for a healthy and active lifestyle.

My approach to mobility is well-rounded and focuses on a combination of mobility, stability, and strength exercises that can benefit anyone, from beginners to advanced athletes. It's important to have a professional guide you on your mobility journey, but it's also important to have fun with it! Incorporating mobility exercises into your routine.

Creatine:
is a natural compound found in our muscles and is involved in the production of energy during high-intensity exercises such as weight lifting and sprinting.

In other words Creatine is a natural supplement that boosts muscle performance. This natural substance is a total powerhouse when it comes to building muscle, improving athletic performance, and overall health.

Now, you might be thinking, "But isn't creatine just for guys who want to bulk up?" Not at all!

So, whether you're a guy, gal, or senior citizen, Creatine Monohydrate could be the supplement you need to take your fitness to the next level. Here are 5 points of advice to get you started:
1.Choose a high-quality creatine supplement from a reputable brand. Some top options include Optimum Nutrition Creatine Powder, MuscleTech Platinum Creatine Monohydrate Powder, and BulkSupplements Creatine Monohydrate Powder, Buckedup.
2.Pair creatine with a balanced diet and regular exercise routine. Remember, supplements aren't magic pills - they work best when used in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle.
3.Cycle on and off creatine to prevent desensitization and maintain its effectiveness. A common cycling approach is to take creatine for 8-12 weeks, followed by a 4-6 week break.
4.Dosage: The recommended dosage for creatine monohydrate is 3-5 grams per day, taken either before or after a workout.
5.Drink more water with creatine to avoid dehydration – taking excessive amounts can cause muscle cramps and digestive issues from dehydration
6) check with your doctor to see if they believe this is right for you
