Exercise needs to become a habit. There’s no way around the benefits of moving the body! Whether it’s exercise during pregnancy, exercise for flabby arms, exercise for more energy, exercise for sciatic nerve pain, exercise for spinal arthritis, exercise for the spinal cord, exercise for spinal cord injury, exercise for spinal pain, exercise lower back pain, exercise to strengthen knees… the list goes on and on and on!

Exercise and movement instruction has gotten a whole lot more accessible today more than ever. You can do exercises at home, at your desk; you can find exercises to train your brain… you name it, it is easily findable online. You can work out any time anywhere.

But, here at Advanced Alignment, we believe that one of THE BEST exercises that anyone can do is strength training, with the formal name being RESISTANCE TRAINING.

Cardio, also called aerobic exercise, is any form of repetitive body movement over a period of time that promotes the circulation of oxygen through your blood. There’s been a lot of bad tips out there that people must do cardio to lose weight. This is untrue. The cardio-fat loss relationship is greatly misunderstood. Exercise, if you choose the right type, can really fire up your metabolism so that you burn fat readily.

THERE IS A BETTER WAY TO LOSE BODY FAT, GET HEALTHY, AND FIGHT AGING…RESISTANCE TRAINING!
Resistance training is REVOLUTIONARY for the human body!
 

Working out can take a toll on the body, and when there are structural misalignments in the spine (head, neck, spine, etc.) this can lead to unnecessary injuries down the road. Dr. Boyhan can provide you with a Movement Analysis which will help you determine the BEST workout programs to do, as well as an analysis on the way you move so that you can ensure you’re moving the right way when you workout and/or when doing rehab exercises in between your appointments.

Dr. Boyhan spent many years as a competitive student-athlete in both football and wrestling through high school and went on to play football for the University of Massachusetts only to have inconsistent health derail his athletic career.

Had Boyhan been able to address the root issues earlier in his athletic career to understand if he was truly foundationally sound to do the sport that he was throwing himself into, his career as an athlete wouldn’t have been derailed all too soon.

Parents, before you put your kids into athletics, make sure their foundation is structurally sound for them to thrive! Dr. Boyhan can evaluate to ensure any corrections are made before they step onto the field, court, etc.
