Warming up before a workout increases heart rate and circulation, loosens the joint, and increases blood flow to the muscles. It decreases the risk of injury by keeping the muscles warm and loose, preventing acute and overuse injuries.

Experience-dependent plasticity is the process of creating and organizing brain neurons through life repetition. When we initially learn something, we use multiple regions of the brain but with repetition of the task, we need less regions of the brain to complete it. The task becomes second nature and we can complete it without thinking about it. Learning new activities creates new networks in the brain.

During sleep, the body releases cytokines which are proteins that help fight infection, inflammation, and trauma. Muscles and tissues repair and rejuvenate during sleep, so if you're not getting a sufficient amount of rest each night, it's going to be harder to heal. If you're an athlete, sleep is a metric that should definitely be tracked to perform your best.

Why does inflammation cause pain? Pain caused by inflammation is called nociceptive pain. It can feel sharp, dull, aching, or pricking. Inflammation is the body's way of fighting back and the body releases mediators like cytokines, histamine, and prostaglandins into the affected area. These mediators activate nociceptors (tiny nerves) and transmit pain signals to the brain.

Slow down! Eating slowly gives your brain the chance to get the signal that you’re full, so you’re less likely to overeat. And if you take it slow, you’re more likely to think about what you’re eating and make sensible healthy choices.

What can you do to keep your bones healthy?
👉Include plenty of calcium in your diet. For adults ages 19 to 50 and men ages 51 to 70, the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) is 1,000 milligrams (mg) of calcium a day. The recommendation increases to 1,200 mg a day for women age 51 and older and for men age 71 and older. Good sources of calcium include dairy products, almonds, broccoli, kale, canned salmon with bones, sardines and soy products, such as tofu. If you find it difficult to get enough calcium from your diet, ask your health provider about supplements.

👉Pay attention to vitamin D. Your body needs vitamin D to absorb calcium. For adults ages 19 to 70, the RDA of vitamin D is 600 international units (IUs) a day. The recommendation increases to 800 IUs a day for adults age 71 and older. Good sources of vitamin D include oily fish such as salmon, trout, whitefish and tuna. Additionally, mushrooms, eggs and fortified foods, such as milk and cereals, are good sources of vitamin D. Sunlight also contributes to the body's production of vitamin D. If you're worried about getting enough vitamin D, ask your health provider about supplements.

👉Include physical activity in your daily routine. Weight-bearing exercises such as walking, jogging, and climbing stairs can help build strong bones and slow bone loss.

👉Avoid substance abuse. Don't smoke. If you are a woman, avoid drinking more than one alcoholic drink each day. If you are a man, avoid drinking more than two alcoholic drinks a day.
