This is known as delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and can happen anywhere from 24 to 72 hours after engaging in intense or unfamiliar exercises. DOMS is a result of micro trauma to the muscle fibers and leads to an inflammatory response causing muscle discomfort.</span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-0757fdf7-7fff-aafd-8239-517636a6c65f"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space-collapse: preserve;">There's a couple ways to help reduce delayed onset muscle soreness. </span></p><ul style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; padding-inline-start: 48px;"><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; list-style-type: disc; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; text-wrap: wrap; vertical-align: baseline;">Dynamic stretching before exercising and doing static stretching during cool down helps to reduce soreness and improve recovery time. </span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; list-style-type: disc; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; text-wrap: wrap; vertical-align: baseline;">Foam rolling and massage therapy are two other ways to help increase blood flow into the muscles and reduce tension.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; list-style-type: disc; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; text-wrap: wrap; vertical-align: baseline;">Antioxidants such as vitamin C and vitamin E help to mitigate the inflammatory response associated with DOMS.

Start out with your normal shower and then turn the tap to cold for around a minute. Make sure you’ve checked with your health professional first before you try it.

Most people have lost their capacity to effectively put their leg behind their body. As we move, be it walk, run, or even going down stairs, we need good hip extension, that is, to be able to move the knee behind the butt. </span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-65d8dc79-7fff-e6a3-2d97-258e2f8a5dcd"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Hip extension uses one of your strongest muscles - hip extensors, which helps stabilize your pelvis and is important for daily movement, exercise and sport activities. Loss of glute function has an effect on control of our back and can create low back pain or knee pain.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br /></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Here’s a simple drill to check your hip mobility to see if it needs improvement;</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzl6bFrIzeHVlCpyoVU2e8nAXtCXSKjohPrqWWKOXbHEL1vEyCgLgEG_qXhpEcPELWPvOJQAZR4AQPAbUxRJiZ_H6IsN10_9w7OVJqFSnGlguQj3UdPVCqECu63zpeugZGvlrSG-bAcrsiBsckfRGhEIlIwJ9L6bRiiUNmbvnXUF0wcf90DFh8KIdA5CE/s2352/Doug%20Hip%20Extension%20Test.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2352" data-original-width="1758" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzl6bFrIzeHVlCpyoVU2e8nAXtCXSKjohPrqWWKOXbHEL1vEyCgLgEG_qXhpEcPELWPvOJQAZR4AQPAbUxRJiZ_H6IsN10_9w7OVJqFSnGlguQj3UdPVCqECu63zpeugZGvlrSG-bAcrsiBsckfRGhEIlIwJ9L6bRiiUNmbvnXUF0wcf90DFh8KIdA5CE/s320/Doug%20Hip%20Extension%20Test.jpg" width="239" /></a></div><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space-collapse: preserve;">With arms over head, step forward in a Deep Lunge. Your front leg should be at a 90 degree angle with the knee in line with the ankle. Your back foot should be far enough back that your knee should be behind your butt.

As strength is the foundation for all forms of activity the need to focus on fast twitch muscle fibers becomes a necessity. The most effective way to preserve muscle mass is to focus on POWER - either through Heavy Lifting or Going Fast.

Movement is governed by the relationship between the nervous system, neurons, and their connection to muscle. A nerve stimulus is needed to make the muscles want to change and focusing on your fast twitch muscles increases this stimulus. As we improve muscle quality, it changes how your entire body works - the nervous system, muscular system, immune system and internal organs.

But we know that don’t we?</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you go over the complete list you will see that Dynabody Fitness & Health is involved with each trend - one way or another. No matter how you look at it, exercise is the one thing that not only increases your Life-Span but your Health-span also.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Doing a multi-functional workout with dumbbells or your own bodyweight not only works your major muscle groups but also activates your core stabilizer muscles. This would be considered Functional Training – the meat and potatoes of my classes. Not only does this improve your strength and mobility but carries over into better posture and control as you have to isometrically maintain stability while working the other side of the body. This neurological adaptation brings a natural progression of your fitness abilities. You activate more muscles fibers while concentrating on form. It has been a staple of my workouts for years! </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Most of the newbies are surprised at what they can do when they take on a “can do” attitude and stop thinking that they “can’t” do that weight. Of course safety is always number one priority, and when using a heavier weight maintaining the load throughout the motion is much easier on the body. With a heavier weight there is less jerking and snapping of the joints, and thus, less chance of injury.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Plus you build strength rather than just go through the motions. I like to use the example of painting a ceiling, you can do it for a long time and your shoulder gets sore. But you didn’t strengthen the shoulder. It’s just like going to the gym and seeing someone grab that 10 lb weight and rattle of 20 reps while chatting to their buddy. A total waste of time!</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Following the latest trend is not necessarily a bad thing. You just have to realize that there are no magic pills, no short-cuts, no special diets, machines or routines that will result in </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">you being in great shape without effort. If they help you to move ahead that’s great.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It is important to create a lifestyle that works for you and that you will maintain for a healthy life. The best results come from a long-term strategy involving permanent change in both eating and activity habits. You can live your life in good health – it’s your reality - start now!</span></p><br /></span><div><span><br /></span></div><div><span><span id="docs-internal-guid-6b61178a-7fff-7d10-5b83-d6fdbe5fa218"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span face=""Fira Sans", sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-style: italic; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">ACSM's Health & Fitness Journal </span><a href="https://journals.lww.com/acsm-healthfitness/toc/2023/01000" style="text-decoration-line: none;"><span face=""Fira Sans", sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; color: #005b92; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">27(1):p 9-18, 1/2 2023.</span></a><span face=""Fira Sans", sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> | </span><span face=""Fira Sans", sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-style: italic; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">DOI: </span><span face=""Fira Sans", sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">10.1249/FIT.0000000000000834</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">https://journals.lww.com/acsm-healthfitness/Fulltext/2023/01000/Worldwide_Survey_of_Fitness_Trends_for_2023.6.aspx?context=FeaturedArticles&collectionId=1</span></span></p><div><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div></span></span></div>DynabodyRockshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02281816536391626745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7559178862661932365.post-4933836242422864522023-04-06T09:09:00.004-05:002023-04-06T09:09:47.792-05:00Easter's coming - time to Hop to it!<span id="docs-internal-guid-a046b3d2-7fff-db43-ba04-8561b53a279a"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Join the Easter Bunny and get a sense of satisfaction, motivation and increased endorphins “Hello happiness!” you need!

how far you’ve walked. If you want to know the distance or how many steps
you’ve walked it’s pretty simple.</span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Arial, "sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">Multiply the time you walked by
100. This gives you the average meters you’ve walked.</span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Arial, "sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">On average you walk 100 meters
per minute - when done at a moderate pace.</span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">So if you’ve walked for 25
minutes x 100 and you get 2,500 meters or 2.5 kms.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Arial, "sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">Here’s a simple formula;</span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #0070c0; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">METERS</span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;"> = # MIN.
WALKED X 100 </span><o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">or</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #0070c0; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">KMS WALKED </span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">= #
MINUTES X 0.1</span><o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Example:25 min. x 0.1 = 2.5 kms
walked</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Arial, "sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">Now you want to figure out the
steps? How tall you are does matter a bit, but on average you do 1,400
steps per kilometer. Women will do a bit more - closer to 1,500 steps
while men have longer strides and do closer to 1,300 steps.</span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Arial, "sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">If you walked for 25 minutes or
2.5 kms, times it by 1,400 and you’ve walked 3,500 steps</span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #0070c0; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">STEPS WALKED = </span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;"># MINUTES WALKED </span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 9.0pt;">X </span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;">0.1 </span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 9.0pt;">X</span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;"> 1,400</span><span style="color: #0070c0;"><o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Arial, "sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">So, if your goal is to do 10,000
steps a day plan to do around 72 minutes of walking (around 7.15 kms)</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Arial, "sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;"><br /></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><o:p></o:p></p><p style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK7y7HTXbD5Txs783uXG4qpXyOQOvrH_Mrw8iKqTvfFYnorgUhaGYrKV_zGflOHfhnRRPZPxiblswRxJv3YE_a8cH2SxeRGN0Gixn4rNqUaLYC7MhD5nRoobWnLNdQRcTBf7PJwiakFMTBdLRHetQ1E_erVc_-_MSBKnT4z-T642ALGzJd0Z2heMpo/s954/Distance%20Walked.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="924" data-original-width="954" height="310" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK7y7HTXbD5Txs783uXG4qpXyOQOvrH_Mrw8iKqTvfFYnorgUhaGYrKV_zGflOHfhnRRPZPxiblswRxJv3YE_a8cH2SxeRGN0Gixn4rNqUaLYC7MhD5nRoobWnLNdQRcTBf7PJwiakFMTBdLRHetQ1E_erVc_-_MSBKnT4z-T642ALGzJd0Z2heMpo/s320/Distance%20Walked.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span><p></p>DynabodyRockshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02281816536391626745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7559178862661932365.post-9909653070967004032023-01-15T13:07:00.001-06:002023-01-15T13:11:38.523-06:00Fitness Classes start January 17th & 19th, 2023<span id="docs-internal-guid-d2a4f2da-7fff-ed71-404e-10191daf24d0"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Reap the benefits of exercise – nature’s best medicine!

You need to include;</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Balance, Coordination, Agility, Reaction Time, Body Composition and Mental Toughness.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Being physically fit is multi-dimensional. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">That is why my fitness classes or “bootcamps” focus on all the above components, or more specifically, in Functional Training.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Functional training stresses movement over muscle and relies on neurological adaptation to strength and mobility. The key to functional training is integration - it teaches your muscles to work together. This is different from your conventional weight training routines which isolate muscle groups. Functional training bridges the gap between strength, power and speed to achieve peak performance. It is not gender or age specific.

Keep moving, like water, not stagnant, you must flow to grow…”</span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-d252ada9-7fff-4992-072f-134402507d5b"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="color: #111111; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">That’s true in everything in life. Movement is very important in circulation. When you move you increase circulation.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="color: #111111; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In the Western Hemisphere, Exercise – it’s all about the muscle. In the East – they focus on inside exercise , like Tai Chi, or Meditation, where they rely on calming exercises that do not increase the heart rate.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="color: #111111; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Exercise Movement helps to boost the Lymphatic system. Your lymphatic system plays a major role in immune system health, “cancer surveillance” and autoimmunity. It is important to know that your Lymphatics system does not have any heart and relies on movement for circulation. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="color: #111111; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Exercise also helps in the detoxification process. By perspiring or sweating you are removing toxins from the body. Your immune system is more active, more energetic. Also, by exercising you are taking in more oxygen, which is used by the Mitochondria (energy center of your cells) to produce ATP (Adenosine TriPhosphate) which makes energy. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="color: #111111; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Without oxygen, your body goes into oxidative stress. The biggest user is your heart and brain. Exercise and using your muscles promotes circulation and helps to build your immune system and be more energetic.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="color: #111111; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This is unlike cancer cells, which rely on fructose and fermentation with glucose to survive. However, with circulation and pumping of oxygen throughout the body, cancer does not do well.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="color: #111111; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">To top it off, Low energy levels cause anxiety, ADHD, and nasty behavioral issues.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="color: #111111; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Our body was designed to move, not to sit in a chair or in a car all day, every day -- whether you like it or not! Your mind and body are one. Learning to move is just as important as learning to read and write. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt;"><span style="color: #111111; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The more you move the more energy your mitochondria makes - supplying your body with the energy source it needs.. The more you move the more energy you have!
