5 Ways To Boost Your Health (Even If You Have Chronic Pain)

Good morning,

You asked for it, you've got it!

I have a list of 5 ways you can boost the your overall health and wellness ... STARTING TODAY.

By "boost" I mean notice changes in your stamina, energy, strength, and overall wellness. This can help with your sleep, heart health, and even immune system and so much more!

Before I get into the tips, I want you to remember one thing that will help you drive all of those positive results - YOU

YOU ARE AN EVERYDAY ATHLETE in training, no matter how young or old you are, or current fitness or activity level.

You are in training to live your life. Having a stronger, healthier, and feeling fitter body (and mind) that can help you make the MOST of every single day is something worth fighting for!

 

5 Ways To Boost Your Health

 

#1 - Set Your Priorities

In other words - Get excited about a goal! Want to be able to climb the stairs with more ease? Learn a new recipe or 2 or 3? Add a few more repetitions into your workouts? Add distance to your golf drive?

As adults, we often write off those goals as silly or frivolous. They aren't! They can add a fun factor to your routine (and also a clear purpose).

 

#2 - Have A Plan

Now that you have a priority, create an intentional program - and make sure to include the RIGHT kinds of activities to hit your health and wellness goals.

For example, if you want to be able to do more push-ups, doing cardio exercise 3 days a week won't help you with that. But building your strength (especially core and upper body) will.

 

#3 - Periodize For Progress

This is related to creating a plan ... it is making sure your routine grows and changes as you feel stronger and healthier, have more energy and stamina. Trainers call this "periodization."

If you always do the same exercises the same way, you will eventually plateau. So it is also good to have periodization if you are doing rehab exercises too.

Your activities should challenge you just enough to move you closer to your health and wellness goals, but not so much that you feel drained, overly sore, or get injured (this also applies to any rehab exercises if you are doing any!)

 

#4 - Eat To Support Your Goal

First, make sure you are eating with high quality nutrition, filled with nutrient-dense foods in the right portions for your activity level.

Then, come up with a snack strategy to refuel right after your activity. Aim for a carb-protein mini-meal to give your muscles a jumpstart on recovery.

 

#5 - Reset, Recovery, & Rest

 

Your activity may create stress in your body (good stress, but it is still stress).

 

That's why it's so important to give yourself time to reset, recover, and rest afterward. (p.s. this also applies to rehab appointments - try to not book one practitioner after the other, allow time for the treatment to do its work)

Not only will it help you get the best results from the activities (and therapy appointments) you had, but it helps your body (and mind) get ready for your NEXT session.

On a practical level, it is suggested to take 24-48 hours between exercise sessions to let you muscles repair and rebuild, from a workout perspective.

It also means getting 7-9 hours of quality sleep every night so your body (and mind) can do work for restoring your immune function, work at balancing hormones, and remove cellular waste.

 

So there you have it!

 

These 5 tips will help you take your activities to the NEXT LEVEL and help you hit your health and wellness goals faster.
