Simple does not mean easy! These resistance band workouts are a fantastic way to challenge and strengthen your body, offering a unique alternative to traditional bodyweight exercises or free weights. While resistance bands might not be ideal for serious bodybuilding, they are perfect for gaining strength, shaping muscles, and toning, especially for beginner to intermediate exercisers.
Read MoreIf you frequently workout at a gym or inside your house, there are good reasons to move your workout outdoors. Granted, outdoor workouts can be challenging in extreme heat or cold but if the temperature is mild and comfortable, a change of scenery can keep you motivated as well as challenge your body in a whole new way.
Read MoreI consistently hear the question, “What should I do for my workouts?” from our clients. My answer is always “do what you like to do.” It is so important to make fitness fun so that you actually want to workout. If I told you that you have to cycle five times each week but you hate to cycle, most likely you won’t go and you won’t work out. What good would that do? Sometimes it is a matter of thinking outside the box and trying a workout or even an activity that you may not have thought to try.
Read MoreWhether you live in a warm environment (like us in South Florida) or you’re heading somewhere where it is warm, it’s always nice to get outside and enjoy the fresh air! Working out in the outdoors is a great way to change up your routine and get inspired again. There are so many great outdoor activities that will challenge your body in different ways, use different muscles and have you burning calories just like any other workout would. Here is our list of outdoor fitness activities that will keep you in tip-top shape!
Read MoreThe gym, while functional, can get boring at times. Day in and day out, people flock to gyms all over the United States to take part in their daily workouts. For some, the gym is a motivating place with people and energy that keep them focused. But for some people, the gym becomes a chore which can lead to not working out and a lack of interest in fitness. A change of scenery may be just what you need if you’re not in the mood for a people packed, sweat smelling, iron pumping gym.
Check out these five inspiring workout spots to lift your spirits and re-invigorate your workout surroundings. Whether you’re doing cardio, strength or stretching, you can take your workout to any of these places for some fresh air and a new, inspiring space.
Read MoreAccording to Runner’s World Magazine, “the foot rolls inward more than the ideal fifteen percent, which is called over-pronation. This means the foot and ankle have problems stabilizing the body, and shock isn’t absorbed as efficiently. At the end of the gait cycle, the front of the foot pushes off the ground using mainly the big toe and second toe, which then must do all the work.” It’s fairly common and can cause serious problems for your entire leg and up to the hip if not corrected. Luckily, finding the right shoe for you can help correct the situation.
Read MoreThe treadmill is probably one of the most used pieces of equipment in gyms across America. They’re a staple. The thing about treadmills is that they’re easy to use and no matter the brand, they’re not complicated to figure out. Whether you love the treadmill (or love to hate it) because it’s easy to use or because it’s great for whether prohibitive activity, you don’t just have to walk or run on the treadmill. Mixing up your movements can actually be really fun and provide a whole new workout on the “tready”.
Read MoreGet out there and move your body! We are meant to move and we are meant to move daily. Exercise is important for strength, posture, balance, coordination, joint mobility and so much more. There are times in life (sickness, recovering from injury, etc) and training regimens that may require you to take rest days but most of us don’t need to adhere to an entire “recovery day” day off from working out.
