Accomplishing the fitness goals you have doesn’t have to be difficult.

However, many people make it harder for themselves than it needs to be because they are using the wrong tools to help them get to their goals.

In fact, there are just a couple specific things you need to make sure you are doing regularly to help you reach almost any fitness goal you have, but most people completely neglect one or both of them.

On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are identifying what these tools are, why they are so important, and how you can start using them consistently.

Not only will this make reaching your goals significantly easier, but it will also help you do so quickly and safely.

If you have been putting in the effort to reach your goals but feel like you keep falling short, listen up!

You may just need to switch the tools you are using to help you reach your goals.

If you have been trying to make progress with your strength and fitness, there have likely been some roadblocks you have hit along the way.

While we would all love progress to be a linear trajectory from the moment we start working out until the moment we stop, the truth is that progress is anything but linear.

In fact, there are three distinct stages of progress that, if you don’t realize it, can completely stop you from achieving the goals you are after with your workouts.

However, once you know what these stages are, you can better understand how to navigate each stage and see more clearly when you need to push hard and when you need to back off or change direction.

On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are exploring these three distinct stages of progress and laying out what you need to know as you go through each to successfully reach your goals.

If you feel stuck with your workouts or believe that what you are doing isn’t working, listen up!

You may be getting caught in one of these three stages and metaphorically turning left when you should turn right.

This conversation will teach you exactly what you need to do to keep moving forward.

✨ Healthy joints aren’t just about the bones! ✨

Your joints feel their best when the muscles around them are active and supporting them properly. When those muscles lose their ability to contract efficiently, your joints can feel stiff, achy, or unstable—no matter how much you stretch or rest.

👉 Muscle Activation Techniques® (MAT) helps identify and reactivate the muscles that have “checked out,” restoring support and making your joints feel strong and stable again.

💪 Ready to give your joints the support they’ve been missing? Give MAT a try and start moving with confidence!

There is a big myth of aging that is constantly told to us from the time we are young.

Unfortunately, buying into this myth holds many people back from living the life they want on their terms.

And to make matters worse, we can see examples of this myth being true all around us, which makes this myth even easier to believe.

What is this big myth of aging?

On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are unveiling that answer plus teaching you exactly what you can do to overcome it.

We lay out a simple plan to follow that will have you laughing to yourself anytime you hear one of your friends talk about this big myth like it is a fact.

And, we share precisely what needs to happen to make sure your body feels and functions great the entire time.

If you have been feeling like age–and its effects–are impacting your life, listen up!

What we share in this conversation can completely change that for you.

Did you know the top areas we work on with Muscle Activation Techniques are the shoulder, back, hips, and feet? 💪 But it doesn’t stop there!

We also commonly help clients with their hands & wrists, elbows, knees, and neck — because when muscles aren’t firing well, your body finds ways to compensate… and that’s when issues show up. 😬

If something feels “off” or you’re always tight in certain muscles, let’s take a closer look. MAT might be the missing piece your body’s been asking for. 🙌

Muscle Activation Techniques®, or MAT, is the most powerful process we have come across for helping people increase their strength and mobility while reducing pain and tightness.

But, while the effects of MAT are profound, explaining it to somebody can be challenging.

Over the years of practicing MAT, we have seen that there are some key concepts that can be easily explained and help people quickly understand not only what MAT is, but why it is important.

On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are breaking down these key concepts to present MAT in a simple, straightforward way that is easy to understand.

If you have heard us speak about MAT before but aren’t completely sure what it is or how you would explain it to somebody else, listen up!

This conversation will clear that up for you once and for all.

Are you constantly stretching but still feeling tight? 😩
You’re not alone — and there’s a reason for it.

Here are the Top 3 Reasons You Likely Feel Tight All the Time 👇
➡️ Your body is protecting weakness
➡️ Stretching doesn’t change the root issue
➡️ The nervous system is keeping muscles on guard

The good news? You can change this — by identifying and activating the weak muscles your body is compensating for.

That’s exactly what we do with Muscle Activation Techniques® 💪
It’s time to get lasting relief — not just temporary fixes.

“You’ve got tendon inflammation…” 🧠➡️⚠️
If you’ve ever been told you have tendonitis or inflammation in a tendon, you know how frustrating it can be. The discomfort, the stiffness, the limitations… it can feel like your body is working against you.

But here’s something most people don’t hear:
👉 Inflammation often happens because the muscles around the tendon aren’t doing their job. When muscles can’t contract efficiently, tendons end up taking on more stress than they’re built for.

That’s where Muscle Activation Techniques® (MAT) comes in. 💡
MAT helps identify and reactivate muscles that aren’t functioning properly—reducing excess strain on the tendons and helping your body move and feel better.

✅ Address the root of the issue
✅ Support your body’s healing process
✅ Get back to moving with less discomfort

If inflammation keeps coming back, it’s time to check if your muscles are doing their job. 💪

Tight muscles aren’t a mistake—they’re a message. 💡

Your body doesn’t just tighten muscles for no reason. Tightness is often a protective response—your body’s way of keeping you safe when something isn’t working quite right.

Instead of just trying to stretch it away, it’s worth asking: what is my body trying to protect me from?

At Muscle Activation Schaumburg, we help you get to the root cause so your body feels safe to let go of that tightness—for good. 💪

One key to long-term success with your workouts is staying consistent with them. While much of the world is focused on constantly switching things up, the truth is you need to keep doing the same things over and over again in order to build lasting strength and health.

But, sometimes things do need to change, and that is exactly what has happened with our workouts recently.

On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are diving into the changes we have each made to our workouts, why we made those changes, the results we have been seeing since making the changes, and how you can go about implementing them yourself.

If you are looking for some keys to take your strength and results to the next level, listen up!

The information we share in this discussion will help you do exactly that.
