With every member of the practice who enters our wellness center, I recommend you start an exercise routine if you no longer work at least 3 times a week. This is not something we can ignore and neglect. As a chiropractor, the adjustments I make on the spine are wonderful, but if a person does not do other constructive activities and well-being, the spine will not maintain proper positioning and position for a long time. Long period in most cases.
By encouraging members to engage in regular exercises, stretching, meditation, healthy eating, positive social interactions and self-help activities, we work together to care for the body in a holistic and permanent way.
That being said, when I mention for the first time that I am serving, it is time to start exercising, I often find fear or confusion in return. However, when I explain exactly how much exercise routine I have in mind can be simple, I often have an even more confused appearance in response. So, what exactly do I tell my practice members about the initial exercise program? Walk Here. My first recommendation is to start walking, aiming 3 times a week for 20 minutes. Almost everyone is capable of this simple walking program, and if a member of the practice is unable to walk for the entire duration of 20 minutes, I suggest you walk as far as possible, stop and take a break 1 minute, then continue walking. Do everything possible for the 20 minutes and eventually your resistance will increase.
After going through the 20 minutes, 3 times a week for a period of 4 weeks, I suggest you increase up to 4 days a week. Again, when you get to the point that you can do it successfully for 4 weeks, increase your rides to 30 minutes each time. At this point, it is the basis of the whole exercise program that I use for the practice members. We also integrate a flexibility routine at least twice a week, which can be completed in 10 to 15 minutes, as well as a resistance and resistance routine twice a week, which takes about 20 minutes. But, undoubtedly, do not hesitate to walk 4 times a week. If the weather is bad outside, then be creative, like to go to the mall and walk inside or into the gym at the local high school.
In terms of rhythm during your walks, I suggest a rhythm that causes a slight increase in breathing. You should always have a conversation with someone during your walks. The wonderful thing about walking is that it increases all the systems of our body. Our breathing has increased, our circulation has improved, our metabolism and our digestive system have increased, our lymphatic system has increased drainage and we release endorphins that make us feel incredible! So I hope this will help remove some of the bullying that comes in trying to figure out a way to start an exercise routine. My thoughts are, the simpler the process, the more successful.
Always consult your trusted health care professional before starting any exercise routine to make sure there are no contraindications to exercising.
