Resistance Training
Developing and maintaining structural and postural muscle is essential for creating a higher quality of living. Our muscles are designed to protect your structure, joints and allow your body the ability to move effortlessly. Resistance training will help prevent injuries, osteoporosis and burn fat.
Example: 1 lb. of fat = 3,500 calories. 1 lb. of Lean Muscle will burn at rest 50 calories per day. If you can develop 10 lbs. of Lean Muscle, you can burn 500 extra calories per day at rest, thus burning 1 lb. of extra fat per week.
Get Started With Walking
Cardiovascular health is essential for long term wellness and quality of life. If you can lower your resting heart rate you can lengthen your life by 10 years.

Starting a walking program is highly recommended and the benefits are substantial.
Exercise promotes fat loss, strengthens muscles and joints, and enhances emotional wellness by reducing stress and raising endorphin levels, thus lowering cortisol in our body.
