Sound Mind: Physical health matters in your life.
In our daily lives, the absence of four crucial elements—purposeful exercise, an active lifestyle, good nutrition, and optimal movements with good posture—can contribute to physical limitations, pain, and poor performance. At Live Well, our coaching programme places paramount emphasis on enhancing these elements. But why are they so essential?
Purposeful Exercise
Engaging in purposeful exercise goes beyond the routine; it’s a deliberate and mindful approach to improving physical fitness that aligns with your unique goals and needs. It’s about more than just breaking a sweat; it’s a strategic and intentional investment in your well-being. Whether you’re striving for strength, flexibility, or a balanced mind-body connection, purposeful exercise tailors each movement to align with your objectives. The major benefits of purposeful exercise are as follows:
Exercise vs Training (purposeful exercise)Distinguishing between training and exercise is crucial. Exercise encompasses any form of physical activity that moderately elevates your heart rate. However, it may not consistently yield additional health and fitness benefits beyond a certain point. Conversely, training requires a systematic, comprehensive plan and programming to aid the body in adapting, recovering, and enhancing its physical capacity progressively, without encountering plateaus. A well-structured training plan typically involves incrementally increasing workloads, honing skills, and systematically measuring and monitoring physical progress over time. Training, in comparison, proves to be more enjoyable and physically rewarding.
What is physical fitness?If you can run at a medium speed for about an hour, do physical activities without getting tired, confidently carry, lift, push, pull, and raise things without pain, quickly recover after an active day or training session, walk and sit for long hours with good posture without being overly mindful, stand and move symmetrically without pain, and have a good balance of lean body mass and fat, it’s likely that you are physically fit.
Physical components of your training programmeAspects such as speed, muscular strength, muscular endurance, balance, body composition, flexibility, power, reaction time, coordination, agility, and speed are all encompassed in your training programme. Your personal training and coaching will be tailored around these elements to address your requirements for optimal performance and health.
Good Nutrition
Good nutrition is vital for a vibrant life, extending beyond mere calorie counting and following a specific diet. It’s about nourishing your body with nutrient-dense foods at the right time and in the right amount. Essential for preventing illness and optimising performance, at Live Well, we’re dedicated to guiding you on a journey to sustainable and enjoyable nutrition, fostering awareness, vitality, and well-rounded health. The major benefits of good nutrition are as follows:
Good movement and posture are the pillars of physical well-being. They form the foundation for a body that functions optimally, reducing the risk of chronic pain and injuries. When movement is fluid and posture is aligned, the body operates with efficiency and balance. Good movement ensures that muscles are engaged correctly, promoting strength and flexibility. Meanwhile, proper posture contributes to optimal joint alignment, reducing strain on muscles and ligaments. Together, they enhance overall physical performance, making daily activities more comfortable and improving resilience during exercise. The major benefits of good movement and posture are as follows:
Active lifestyle
Embracing an active lifestyle is a commitment to well-being that extends beyond the confines of structured exercise. It encompasses a daily rhythm of movement, fostering increased energy levels, flexibility, and mobility. Through consistent engagement in activities that promote functional movement, such as walking, stretching, and maintaining proper posture, individuals can experience the benefits of enhanced physical vitality. Social interaction becomes a natural part of this lifestyle, as activities often involve community engagement. The result is a holistic approach to health. The major benefits of an active lifestyle are as follows:
Everyone deserves to live in truth. But truth has neither a path to reach nor can it be cultivated. It’s here or nowhere!
Freedom is not the will to follow some desires or instincts. Freedom flowers when thought is not put into action.
When truth is in action, not thought, there is no such thing as confusion. But when there is a choice in life, confusion begins to build up.
