What You See May Not Be For You !!

With our many years of experience within the fitness industry, it is not unusual to see people copy or try to imitate an exercise that they have seen without knowing its purpose or proper execution.  This is one way to injure yourself.   Asking a fitness professional or doing research about a particular exercise is highly recommended before trying it out. 

Understanding the basics of body mechanics, for example, pulling or pushing motions are simple to understand.  Most pulling motions work posterior or back of the body as pushing motions work the front.  Understanding proper form and purpose of exercise will always make for a more efficient and effective workout.

Do yourself a favor, ask questions, research and if need be don’t be shy about hiring a personal trainer even on a part time basis.  The trainer can set you up with a program that is tailored to your wants and needs and you don’t have to worry about guessing. 

Be Safe, Be Informed!!! :)
