  • 70 - Functional Movement: What and Why

    Join me as I welcome Kim, co-founder of Functional Fitness Solutions, to discuss the importance of functional movement for overall health and well-being. Kim shares her insights on how to avoid injuries, improve stability, and alleviate common pains like lower back and shoulder discomfort.

    Here are some key takeaways from the episode:

    • Functional movement: Focuses on exercises that mimic everyday movements, strengthening muscles and improving stability for better function in daily life.
  • Start small: Consistency is key, even if it's just 5-10 minutes of exercise snacks like bodyweight exercises or yoga stretches.
  • Listen to your body: Don't push yourself too hard, especially when starting out. Modify exercises as needed and gradually increase intensity and duration.
  • Address pain: Pain is often a sign of muscle imbalances or movement dysfunction. Functional movement can help correct these imbalances and alleviate pain.
  • Common trouble areas: Shoulders, hips, and lower back are susceptible to pain due to repetitive motions and lack of proper strengthening.
  • Resources: Check out Kim's website (funfitsolutions.com) and social media (funfitsolutions on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/funfitsolutions/ and Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/funfitsolutions) for more information and exercise tips.

  • 62 - No Easy Buttons, Just Effort and Habits!

    Are you searching for an "easy button" for your health and weight loss journey? I totally get it! As the new year approaches, we often seek a quick fix to start it off right. 

     

    All the posts of others' achievements have us feeling a bit lacking? But let's take a step back and remind ourselves not to compare our journey with others'. 

     

    In this episode, we dive into the importance of focusing on the efforts we put in rather than the outcomes we desire. Life throws us curveballs, and while we can't control everything, we can control the effort we give. 

    Listen in as I lay out the things needed to build a solid foundation for long-term success, there are a few key habits. 

    Remember, there's no "easy button" when it comes to health and weight loss. But by focusing on these foundational habits and approaching your goals one step at a time, you'll make lasting progress. Let's support each other and make this year our best yet!
