⭐️FEATURE FRIDAY⭐️

Today we wanted to give a quick shoutout to our friends over at APEX — Posture and Sport] 🙌🏼

The Markus Brothers have helped keep us feeling and performing our best with regular chiropractic adjustments and deep tissue work. 🥰👍🏼

There’s a long list of benefits from regular chiropractic adjustments including improved posture and range of motion, as well as decreased stiffness and joint pain. Regular maintenance is key to avoiding overuse and even ergonomic related injuries. 🔑

Be sure to give them a follow APEX — Posture and Sport] and check out their page for more info on their services ✅

Hey Team! Here's a tip to help you optimize your lifestyle & performance! ⬇️

Commit to a regular mobility & stretch routine! ✅

Mobility is the overall range of motion a person has within their body, most notably within the joints. It is incredibly important to one’s health and daily functioning. Increased mobility prevents you from getting injuries. It allows you to squat deeper, run faster, and train harder. 💪🏼

When we spend too much time in stagnation (like sitting behind a desk for eight hours a day, five days a week) the internal connective tissues become short and tight. When it’s not properly mobilized it can leave a person feeling stiff, trigger pain, and can increase risk of injury. 🙅🏻‍♂️

Mobility is foundational to physical health and the key to longevity. If you have poor mobility, you are not moving a joint through its full range of motion when active in that joint. This can lead to tightness, pain, and limited range during exercise.

If you're in need of a well-rounded mobility routine, give us a message and we can get you set up to start moving well and feeling better! 💯

"Take action! An inch of movement will bring you closer to your goal than a mile of intention." - Steve Maraboli

We can either choose to sit back and allow life to happen to us, or we can happen to life.

There is power in taking charge. Sometimes we can get stuck in the habit of waiting for life to change but nothing will happen unless we put in the work to make changes.

The process may not be easy and we won’t understand everything but as we put in the work we will begin to see our desired results. 🔥

Hey Team! Here's a tip to help you optimize your lifestyle & performance! ⬇️

Aim to walk 10,000+ steps each day! ✅

The average American walks 3,000 to 4,000 steps a day, or roughly 1.5-2 miles. It's a good idea to find out how many steps a day you walk now, as your own baseline. Then you can work up toward the goal of 10,000 steps. 🚶🏽‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚶🏿

It adds up to about five miles each day for most people, which includes about 30 minutes of daily exercise—satisfying the CDC’s recommendation of at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week. 👍🏼

The 10,000-step goal could be just right for you—and the benefits of a 30-minute daily stroll are nearly boundless, from slowing mental decline and lowering blood pressure, to improving sleep and relieving depression.

Completing an extra 10,000 steps each day typically burns about 2000 to 3500 extra calories each week. One pound of body fat equals 3500 calories, so depending on your weight and workout intensity, you could lose about one pound per week simply by completing an extra 10,000 steps each day.
