Fitness for Superheroes (That's YOU!)

A lot of us are very tired and discouraged right now.  The metaphorical weight of the world is bearing down on us in an almost-literal way.  I’m a personal trainer and Pilates instructor, which is not the same as a superhero; I cannot fix the world.  However, my small part in the work the world needs is this:  I help with self-care.

At base, the purpose of fitness is to take care of ourselves.  We need cardio to keep our brains sharp and our moods positive.  We need weight training because we all need all the strength we can get.  We need flexibility both figuratively and literally to navigate the challenges in front of us.  We need mind/body work so that we can tune into the important stuff.  And we need to balance all that hard work with rest.

What do we need most today?  That’s today’s workout, whether it’s a power nap or power lifting.  Let’s grab some uplifting tunes and get this done.
