Purposeful Fitness

The 9 Pillars of Health are important lifestyle habits that can be your greatest assets or your worst enemy.

Today we are talking about your Breath and how it’s something often overlooked since we automatically do it, but when we automate things they tend to be worse quality. Taking control of your breath can not only improve performance but also change how you feel.

We’ve all experienced “newbie gains”. It’s the rapid improvement in performance that happens when we first start lifting weights (or any other physical form that matter). It tends to plateau after a few months of consistent training. But if you understand what it is, you too can benefit from “newbie gains” even if you are not one.

At first glance, this question seems pretty silly. But if you’re using working out to compensate for anything (poor eating habits, lack of sleep, stress management issues, …) maybe you could get two birds with stone if you understand the true Purpose of working out.

Sometimes people feel that spending time and money on things that improve their physical and mental health can be selfish decisions. Coaching, good quality nutrition, recovery methods, good mattress, vacations… all cost money and time. But at the end of the day, they create the opportunity for you to be UNselfish because it allows you to take care of other and not be a burden to those around you.

The 9 Pillars of Health are a set of habits that most of us partake in every single day. But they are rarely taken care of. We focus a lot on how much we eat and how hard we workout. But that is 1-2 hours of each day. The 9 Pillars are happening the other 22 hours. Find out what they are in this episode!

As a coach, how do you remain unbiased?As a client, do you want somebody that reinforces your bias or somebody that confronts it?Learn more in this weeks podcast!
