B Is For Balance

What's Your Happy Medium?
When I say balance, I don't mean if you can do exotic exercises on a Bosu ball or a stability ball. I mean, can you find the balance in your busy life to reach your health and wellness goals? Is it simply about eating appropriately and exercising? Absolutely not!! So many factors play into your ability to succeed. Not only do food and exercise play a role but one has to consider levels of stress, hours of restful sleep, genetic predispositions, and social support. Can you imagine eating well, exercising hard, getting adequate sleep, keeping stress in check but having a spouse or significant other who doesn't share or support your efforts to better yourself? That type of emotional duress can create excess cortisol (think abdominal body fat) and keep you behind your fitness goals. It's important to remember there are so many factors to consider when shooting for a wellness goal. Is it possible to be perfect?Definitely not. But everyone has their happy medium and we're here to help you find that proper balance. As many cards as you can stack in your favor, the better. The road to better overall fitness is a never-ending one. Are you ready to shape the factors to help you be the very best, balanced you ever? We are!
