Your Foot Bone's Connected To Your Back Bone!!??

You are probably asking...WHAT??? Well, here is how... Your feet carry you around all day long and can get tired and painful for many reasons, such as tight/loose shoes, high arches or blisters. In turn that can cause misalignment in the ankles, which can throw off the knees and change the position of your hips and, low and behold, can cause low back pain. See the connection!! So next time your back hurts, remember that it may not be coming from your back. Check out the shoes that you wear everyday to work and your tennis shoes you wear to the gym. Maybe they are not the right fit for your feet. Try Runner's High or a specialty shoe store that can help you fit your shoes to your feet.

Take Time To Do It Right.

It is better to do 10 exercises in perfect form than it is to do 100 in bad form!! A close to perfect push-up, lunge or squat will work more efficiently to burn calories, sculpt and build the muscle and challenge your body so that you can reach your fitness goals. SLOW DOWN and take the time to do the exercise correctly instead of rushing through it so you can leave the gym. It's not a numbers game, it is a game of form....Try It!!! Next time you exercise slow down and do 10-20 slow and perfect push-ups instead of 100 quick and easy ones. Send me an email and tell me which was more challenging. I bet it was the 10-20!!! :) Hope to hear from you soon
