There can be many reasons why patients or clients don't follow through on your home exercise or lifestyle programming. One reason that most clinicians and coaches miss is anchoring actions to triggers. There are a lot of real + imagined barriers to their acting on (or even remembering) the 2 or 3 new things you provided amidst the 100 other habits, tasks, and demands coming at them in a given day (or even remembering them for that matter). If you can anchor those new actions to an existing habit, then you stand a fighting chance. - When you brush your teeth -> try balancing for one minute on each leg. - When you're watching TV at the end of the day -> sit on the ground for 5 minutes to do some mobility exercises. - When you lie down to sleep at night -> close your eyes and try to take 15 deep breaths, focusing on the rise and fall of your stomach. Rather than asking for someone to add "more," try to find opportunities to add "quality" to the habits that already exist. #physicaltherapy #health #healthcare #resilience #fitness #performance

ONLY DO IT, IF YOUR ALIVE By Richard J. Wolff, RDN In 2008, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services published the first edition of the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans (PAGA's). These guidelines served as a call to action, recommending all adults add Strength Training to their lifestyle. Ten years later, the PAGA's were updated to include adults in their nineties. In other words, if your alive, you should be Strength Training! Getting more adults to embrace the Strength Training Lifestyle will improve the health of our nation. Achieving this will require a shift in how we think. First, everyone needs to realize that Evidence-Based Strength Training can prevent and, in some cases, reverse chronic disease. And second, we need to prioritize the health benefits of Strength Training, instead of focusing on big biceps. Scientists have been calling for a simple approach to Strength Training that emphasizes health for years. MEDFITNESS is a Strength Training studio.

Fun sticks. There are 2 ingredients that help people stick to an exercise program: 1. It's fun 2. They feel connected to others Walking speed has been shown to be a vital sign of health and is an indicator of functional status for older adults. Slower walking speeds are associated with higher mortality risk. How can we encourage and train for faster walking speeds AND make it fun? Newspaper Relay: Participants place newspaper on the front of their body and they must walk so fast the newspaper 'sticks' to their body. 😆 Fun ✅ Social ✅ Join me on July 24th for a webinar with the Medical Fitness Association on "Enhancing Fall Resiliency Through Fun, Play, and Games."
