Are You Being Present?

Episode 18 - Working out in the Present Moment Feat. Jamine Aponte


Listen Later

Jamine Aponte joins the "Are You Being Present?" podcast as a guest host with Paul Kerzner.  Jamine is a strength, conditioning and wellness coach who has dedicated her life to helping people improve their health while being present.

The title and topic for this episode is "Working out in the Present Moment."  If you are one of the millions of people that goes to the gym on a (semi) regular basis, then you have an opportunity to use exercise as a "Presence Tool."  

In this podcast Paul and Jamine discuss how common it is for people to become distracted by their thought-stream while at the gym.  Whether its memories of the past or worries of the future, it is important to stay focused and exercise in the 'here and now.' By being present when exercising your workouts will be more effective, efficient and completed with the necessary attention.

Later in the podcast we go into detail and provide a variety of benefits of being present while working out.  One major benefit is that by staying in the 'here and now' you become more in-touch and in-tune with your body.  Another benefit is the ability to perform exercises with the correct form by not rushing through your workouts.  Rushing is a "Presence Distraction" and can lead to injury which is a highly undesirable and certainly unintended consequence.

We thank Jamine for joining us on the podcast and look forward to having her back.  If you'd like to learn more about Jamine Aponte please visit her website: http://inspiredwellnesslifestyle.com
