Sir Issac Newton's first law states that bodies in motion tend to stay in motion and that bodies at rest tend to stay at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. It has also been said that bodies in motion tend to stay in motion and that bodies at rest, tend to rest in peace. Yikes! That's something to think about. So, is your body in motion or is it at rest? Sometimes we just need a little help to get moving. It is important that you find an activity that you enjoy, then do it properly and do it often.

Would you rather be a body in motion, remaining in motion or are you going to be a body at rest, resting in peace? Do you already have a workout routine but it just isn't working for you anymore or isn't appropriate for your condition or stage of life? Have you suffered from an accident or an injury and you are trying to get back into shape? Is your posture bad? Do your head and shoulders jut forward? Is your pelvis tilted causing pain and discomfort in daily activities? |

When starting or re-vamping a fitness routine, it is important to work with a qualified fitness professional to ensure that your fitness program is strengthening what is weak and lengthening what is shortened. Otherwise, there is potential to strengthen a dysfunction. It is possible to injure yourself when working out, so it is very important to learn how to execute exercises with proper form. This will also help as you move through daily life.
A balanced workout routine should include cardiovascular exercises, strength training through a functional range of motion, maintaining or improving joint mobility and muscle flexibility and of course, balance. It should not hurt. A good exercise routine is something that you want to do. It should involve activities that you enjoy and are willing to do on a long-term basis.
