Do You Enjoy Exercising?  Did You KNOW....?

Did you know that too much mobility leads to instability? If you are overly flexible, joints become unstable.  Just like many things in life, balance is key - there is an optimal amount of flexibility, which should not be surpassed.  See Amy for an assessment and tune-up of your deep stabilizing muscles and to learn which stretches YOU should avoid.
Did you know that when you ‘feel the burn while working out’, this is a signal that your muscle is not getting oxygen?  Prolonging the burn would be like hitting the gas pedal in a vehicle when the gas tank is empty.
Did you know that doing Kegel’s indefinitely can lead to urgency, frequency, and pain?  The symptoms of a weak pelvic floor and a tight pelvic floor are the same.  That's right, you can experience urgency and have to go frequently whether your pelvic floor muscles are too tight OR too loose.  Incontinence may be common but it is not normal -- your muscles used to have the right amount of tone, they often just need a little tune-up later in life. Amy has been helping people with incontinence for over 20 years, with non-invasive testing and treatment (male and female).
