S1 #E26 Clare Fone: Exercise is just movement with purpose. Guidance from a lifestyle chartered physio, the experts in physical activity management.
Clare is an holistic, lifestyle chartered physiotherapist, motivational health and fitness speaker, having qualified from Guys Hospital in 1984 with distinction. She has a diploma in Health Education. Clare runs a number of PhysioYogaLates (a name devised by her!) exercise classes in East Sussex, where she lives and offers one off classes for corporate companies. Clare has just recently sold her practice The Westminster Physiotherapy and Pilates Centre, after 29 years, where she specialised in pain management, women’s health and all musculoskeletal conditions. She is now concentrating on corporate lecturing, Lifestyle coaching and teaching her PhysioYogaLattes classes. She has recently established men only PhysioYogaLattes classes, which are proving incredibly popular and beneficial. Clare has always had a specific interest in prevention and aimed to resolve the cause of pain in all her patients and bring about lifestyle changes, through understanding the why’s and how’s of the 5 pillars of health. In this episode Clare talks about the 5 pillars of health; exercise, nutrition, sleep, mental fitness and purpose, community connectivity, family, friendships, spirituality. And how the earlier we look after these, the better our health will be. Our body needs nutrition, water and oxygen and the best way to feed our body is through movement. We cannot dissociate mind from body with any condition and we need to do a range of movements. Why not turn your day into a fun workout? Clare gave us many great ideas – she did the podcast standing up and explained why sitting down is bad for us. Are you sitting down most of the day? Clare talked about the importance of getting outside and how this is beneficial to our health. When you get up – spend 10 minutes outside. And break up your working day by going for a walk. Instead of meeting someone for a coffee and sitting in a coffee shop, why don't you go for a walk instead, and take your coffee with you? What about dancing around your kitchen? We also talked about women working with their bodies at different times of their lives – we need to be body intuitive. When women have a menstrual cycle, they may feel physically and emotionally different throughout the month and how they want to exercise may vary. And when they get to the perimenopause, how they want to exercise may change. Clare’s advice is when you have lots of energy – go with it. When you don’t, work with that. We are all individual and how we exercise is individual. But one thing for sure – it is good for our health.
