Does your strength training leave you feeling still and inflexible?
Most people find that they have to stretch and do other flexibility exercises to counteract the effects of their strength training after they workout.

If you are sick and tired of always having to stretch after you workout because you feel so tight and stiff, listen up!
We lay out exactly what you need to do and how to do it.
Check out all the details in this week’s episode!

Are you active all day long, always on your feet and moving around, rarely sitting or taking time to rest?
While this kind of activity is great, it is not a replacement for more focused and intense workouts.
On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are going to break down the difference between being active and exercising, why you need to do both, and how to get both in consistently.
If you have ever thought, “I don’t need to workout today because I have been up and moving all day long,” this episode is for you!
We share how to determine if you are exercising versus just being active (you’ll be surprised to hear this…) and how to make sure you are doing both throughout your week.

Exercise is one of the most effective ways to help your body build bone, but when it comes to exercising with osteoporosis, the main recommendations that are given fall dramatically short of what is actually required to increase bone density.

On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are diving head first into the topic of A.I.-powered fitness, what you need to know, and what you need to be cautious about.
Even though using A.I. to direct your workouts can seem convenient and cutting-edge, there are some things you need to be aware of so it doesn’t become dangerous.
Learn what these are and what to do about them in this week’s episode!
