If you’re not strength training, you’re doing yourself a disservice. As we age, we naturally lose muscle mass & bone density, but lifting weights slooows that down!

If being strong as you age matters, if being independent as you age matters, if being mobile & active as you age matters, then strength training should matter too!

It’s not too late to start & it doesn’t have to be a crazy schedule. Just dedicate 2-3x/week of a full body strength training routine for 30-60 minutes. Your future self & your family will thank you!!!

Do you truly value your health in all aspects?

Have a super busy work week? Spend Sunday blocking off 30-60 mins a day on your calendar for movement each day. Doesn’t have to be the gym or a class. It can simply be a walk.

Forget to eat because you’re so busy? Pack healthy snacks or easy meals on the go the night before.

Sleep deprived because you spend hours in bed doom scrolling or binging Netflix? Treat yourself like a child & set a bed time for yourself with no technology.

Prioritize moving your body, fueling it with proper nutrition, & sleeping 7.5 hours a night. If you don’t, you’ll regret it in the future.

I had a patient once tell me that when I tape her shoulder it feels like the perfect hug for it, so now I can’t unthink that.

A neck adjustment is NOT going to solve all your neck problems, trust me. No matter how hard your old chiropractor tried to convince you otherwise. And especially not if you have a neck sprain/strain or herniation.

To be honest, one of my pet peeves is when a new patient comes in asking for a neck adjustment, because they believe that’s what they need. Yet, while we’re sitting there talking about their health history, they’ve already cracked their own necks 3-5 times during our convo. When I ask how often they do that, they say multiple times a day 😳😬 So no, you don’t need a neck adjustment if you’re cracking your own neck all day everyday….but chiropractors can still help your neck pain with other modalities & equipment and most likely to strengthen & stabilize your neck.

Pain is inevitable, but let’s not let it debilitate you & let’s address it early on! Not sure how I can help? Then book ...

All those videos are of me stretching, not doing mobility. What’s the difference you may ask?

Flexibility: the ability of your MUSCLES, tendons, & ligaments to lengthen and PASSIVELY hold the stretch.

Mobility: the ability of your JOINTS to move ACTIVELY and with control through its full range of motion.

You need both, but don’t confuse your yoga class for mobility. Want to learn how you can improve your mobility? Join me every Monday starting Jan. 26th from 6:25-6:55pm for a mobility class at Hardcore Fitness Pasadena! DM me to learn more!
