Get Started With Muscle Activation Techniques To Keep Your Muscles Strong & Functioning Well: http://vagaro.com/muscleactivationschaumburg/services Do you have hip pain that started in one part of your hip but has since moved around? Maybe it started near the front but now it wraps around the side and goes to the back. Or maybe it was near the top of your hip but has traveled down. This type of traveling pain can be extremely frustrating to deal with because the sensation and location can be constantly changing. But there is one aspect of your body that can change as quickly as this kind of pain changes location and most ways of dealing with pain completely neglect it. On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are diving to what this aspect is and what you can do during and between your workouts to take advantage of it.

Get Started With Muscle Activation Techniques® To Keep Your Muscles Strong & Functioning Well: http://vagaro.com/muscleactivationschaumburg/services How much time do you spend planning your warm up for your workouts? Most people fall into one of two camps: 1. Absolutely none; or 2. A ton. Unfortunately, if you are trying to figure out what to do on your own, the information around warming up can be as confusing as it is conflicting… Do you stretch or not? Foam roll or not? Inhibit then activate? Or activate then inhibit? What about cardio?... the list goes on. On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are cutting through all of that noise to lay out a simple three-phase formula you can use to get a great warm up in every time you workout. We tell you exactly what you need to do, what you can cut out, what you can leave in if you want, and what you need to make sure you do every single time. If you have ever felt overwhelmed by the warm up process, the conversation we have is for you! Check out all the details in this week’s episode!
