STOPPING THE CLOCK WITH EXERCISE

1/6/2017

 
Workouts do more than burn calories or help you maintain your weight.  The right workout rotation can also help you look younger and stay young looking for years

What must you have in your routine to stay looking young and vibrant?
1. Weight Lifting.  Post menopause many women experience a loss of muscle mass. This effects not only posture, but your ability to do routine tasks in life like grocery shop, care for children, and manage your home.  Research shows that resistance and body weight exercises such as yoga or mat work (such as in the jolie row class) reverses aging on a molecular level.
2. Sprints. Interval sprints are essential for maintaining fast twitch muscle fibers. These are the parts of your muscle that allow you to quickly regain your balance or react quickly.  Sprinting, such as we do in the jolie row workout, helps maintain those fibers.  This keeps your reaction time fast helping you navigate through unexpected circumstances and avoid fails.  As one ages, the ability to quickly respond and recover balance is one of the first signs of aging.  Maintaining and strengthen your fast twitch fibers will keep you nimble.
​3. Flexibility training. Yoga and stretch maintain flexibility.  Limber muscles allow you full ranges of motion and loosen joints as you grow older.  In addition, the weigh bearing nature of yoga strengthens at the same time. 

with love and gratitude,
​Julia
