The Perfect Squat

The Perfect Squat

Anyone can squat. Anyone. There’s no preparation required and it’s an exercise that our bodies can naturally do – ever crouched to the lower parts of a bookshelf? Bent down to pick something up? Those both use the same muscles as squats do, except that they’re just part of our everyday life and so don’t work your body in the same way as specific warm-up squats do.

Considering we probably do multiple squatting variants every day, you’d think that it’d be easy to do one correctly on demand, or when needed. Well, you thought wrong. (Sorry.)

There’s a lot of debate about ‘the perfect squat’, and it is talked about as if it’s a mythical creature or a rarity that we can only hope to achieve. As a full-body fitness staple that works not only your glutes and quads, but your hips, hamstrings and core too, it’s important to perfect this go-to move in order to stop wasting your workouts and get the most out of your exercise. So, how do you perfect the correct squat?

To begin, you’ll need to perfect the basic ‘body weight squat’ – after all, you couldn’t decorate a cake without baking one in the first place (unless you intend to eat it straight away, in which case it will be well-deserved after these squats). Workout techniques are no different; you need to properly establish a foundation before you can begin to build on it to avoid injuries and strains.

  1. Start in a neutral position, with your feet a little wider than shoulder-width apart, and keep your legs firm and straight without locking your knees into place. Roll your shoulders back, as hunching over or bending will put too much strain on your lower back.
  2. With your palms facing down, extend your arms out as straight as you can get them and keep them parallel with the ground.
  3. Inhale, and bring your hips backwards as you bend your knees down into the squat. As your hips and pelvis start to move back, keep your shoulders upright and your back straight, and your head facing forward. This will ensure that your spine stays in a neutral position.
  4. Go as low and deep as your flexibility allows; try and get your hips to sink past your knees, if you can.
  5. Keeping your body weight in your heels, push yourself back up into your neutral standing position as if you’re about to spring off the floor (but without your feet leaving the ground, obviously).

Your basic-yet-perfect correct squat, detailed there in five easy-to-follow steps. These are great to use anywhere and to warm-up before any workout, or even as just a low-intensity form of exercise. Beginners shouldn’t add any extra weight, but once you’ve got the hang of the basic squat, you can start to incorporate some equipment into them for a more effective workout. Try holding a medicine ball/kettle bell/dumbbell to your chest and drop your elbows between your knees as you lower yourself into a squat – this would be great for those who cannot achieve deeper squats as lowering yourself and pushing your hips out back isn’t required.

After doing all those squats day after day – because now that you know the proper technique, there’s really no excuse for you to not be smugly squatting in front of the mirrors at the gym – you may find that you ache a little. That’s normal and shows that you’re making progress in strengthening your core, building up your balance and coordination, and improving your overall fitness levels. If you want to know more about correct technique or would like professional advice from one of our personal trainers then please get in touch. Furthermore, if you are including squats into your regime and they are causing you some aches and pains, then we can help there too with our specialist sports massage service.

The Power of Sports Massage: Performance and Recovery

The Power of Sports Massage: Enhancing Athletic Performance and Recovery

Whether you’re a professional athlete, a weekend warrior, or just someone who enjoys staying active, sports massage can be a game-changer in your fitness journey. This specialized form of massage therapy offers a wide range of benefits that go far beyond relaxation. In this article, we’ll explore the numerous advantages of sports massage and why it’s a crucial component of many athletes’ training and recovery routines.

1. Enhanced Athletic Performance

One of the most significant benefits of sports massage is its ability to boost athletic performance. By targeting specific muscle groups and alleviating tension, sports massage helps improve flexibility and range of motion. This increased flexibility allows athletes to move more freely and efficiently, which is especially vital in sports that require agility and quick movements. As a result, athletes can perform at their best and reduce the risk of injury.

2. Faster Recovery

The demands of intense physical activity can lead to muscle soreness and fatigue. Sports massage helps in the speedy recovery of fatigued muscles by increasing blood circulation and lymphatic flow. This enhanced circulation assists in the removal of waste products and reduces muscle soreness, allowing athletes to bounce back faster and maintain their training consistency.

3. Injury Prevention

Preventing injuries is a top priority for athletes of all levels. Sports massage is an invaluable tool in injury prevention. By identifying and addressing muscle imbalances and areas of tension, massage therapists can reduce the risk of overuse injuries. They can also spot potential issues before they become more severe, helping athletes make necessary adjustments to their training routines.

4. Stress Reduction

Training and competition can be physically and mentally taxing. Sports massage offers a dual benefit by reducing both physical and mental stress. The soothing touch of massage can have a calming effect, helping athletes manage anxiety and stay focused on their goals.

5. Improved Posture and Body Awareness

A well-trained sports massage therapist can identify and address postural issues and imbalances that may be negatively impacting an athlete’s performance. By focusing on these areas, athletes can improve their posture and overall body awareness, which can lead to better movement and reduced strain on the body.

6. Targeted Rehabilitation

In cases where injuries have already occurred, sports massage can be an integral part of the rehabilitation process. Therapists can work alongside healthcare professionals to design a customized massage plan that aids in the healing and recovery of injured muscles and tissues.

7. Enhanced Immune System Function

Regular sports massage can also strengthen the immune system. The reduction of stress and the improvement in circulation and lymphatic flow can help the body better defend against illnesses, keeping athletes in peak condition.

8. Mental Clarity and Focus

Physical well-being and mental health are intricately connected. Sports massage contributes to mental clarity and focus, helping athletes stay motivated and determined to achieve their goals.

In conclusion, sports massage is not just a luxury; it’s a powerful tool that can significantly impact an athlete’s performance, recovery, and overall well-being. Whether you’re a professional athlete or someone who enjoys an active lifestyle, incorporating sports massage into your routine can help you achieve your fitness objectives and enjoy a more balanced, injury-free life. Consult with a qualified sports massage therapist to discover how this specialized therapy can benefit your athletic journey.

Diet Trends: should you be trying them?

Posted on

Over the past few years, obesity has become a consistently increasing public health issue. In response to this, there is now an influx of diet trends that all give you ‘the fastest weight loss results’; and everyone on the internet is suddenly more qualified to advise you than a professional nutritionist.

Now, in no way am I saying I am an expert in nutrition, but I’d like to think my experience and knowledge in the line of work I am in makes me slightly more educated in this field than Sarah on that yummy mummy Facebook group. However, if you genuinely need detailed advice into your own personal nutrition, please seek advice from a professional (I cannot stress this enough).

Whilst fad diets have been around for several years (Atkins, Weight Watchers etc), there is now a much greater pressure to try them due to the constant celebrity endorsement we see everywhere. In my personal opinion, I believe social media can be an extremely dangerous place for someone vulnerable to this pressure. You sit on your phone, scrolling through Instagram and catching up on George’s recent holiday photos and up pops an advertisement of that amazing looking celebrity rambling on about how their fat loss coffee has given them great results within a week. Why wouldn’t you want to give it a go? Fat loss in a week, just from drinking coffee, great right? Wrong. News flash people, most of these celebrities are paid a pretty penny to be pushing these products on their followers. Now, I don’t deny that they fully deserve their brilliant figures, but that is through a lot of strength training in the gym and a calorie deficit for fat loss. Most of these before and after photos with the product are taken on exactly the same day, they just put make up on, wear more flattering clothes and find better lighting for their after picture.

In all honesty, all of these diets rely on creating a calories deficit, whether that’s through restricting carbohydrate intake, replacing meals with shakes, only eating between certain times of the day, creating ‘sins’ on certain foods; it doesn’t matter how they dress it up, they aim to make you eat less calories than you use and therefore weight loss will follow.

I’m sure you’ve probably thought which diet is best for me to lose weight at some point. We all have, you’re not alone. Well, in my opinion, the balanced diet that creates a sustainable calorie deficit for you is best. Now, remember a calorie deficit is purely burning more calories than you consume, therefore you can also create this through exercise if you are already happy with your diet, and that is perfectly okay too. Just remember, don’t beat yourself if you have a bad day and eat too many calories, life is too short for scorning yourself for that doughnut; enjoy the doughnut, just take the dog for a slightly longer walk on that day.

Here’s a few quick tips on how to avoid fad diets and poor diet advice:

Promises of quick fixes.
Recommendations of detoxes where you are to avoid certain foods.
Pushing supplements and a number of other ‘fat loss’ products onto you.
Single study or no academic research available (relying on celebrity personal success stories).
Claims of magical benefits of certain foods (e.g coffee or grapefruit).
Promises of weight loss through tablets, without changing any other aspect of your lifestyle.
Recommendations to consume non-food items (cotton wool diet).
Promotion of eating one type of food (e.g cabbage soup diet, raw food diet).

3 Simple Steps To Achieve Your Resolutions

Posted on

Christmas is the time for us all to eat as heartily as we’d like whilst pretending to ignore both the scales in the bathroom and the nutritional information on all those boxes of mince pies.

And then January is the time to make the resolutions that you are absolutely going to stick to no matter what: go to the gym twice a week, cut out sugar, stop drinking wine on weekdays…all that good stuff that inevitably gets abandoned after the reduced Quality Street tins start to line the shelves of supermarket. Whilst well-intended, only one in ten of us can actually stick to our New Year’s resolutions for longer than a month, and this is because many of us set unrealistic goals while trying to perform ‘damage control’ after the Christmas dinner.

The easiest way to stick to your resolutions is to make your goals more achievable in the first place – and believe it or not, you can start from December. New Year’s resolutions may be made with the ‘new year, new me’ idea in mind, but if you’re already signed up to and paying for a gym membership in December, chances are that you’re going to find a lot more motivation to continue these habits into 2017.

Step 1: Don’t let Christmas become ‘an excuse’.
This doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy yourself at Christmas. You are allowed to make a beeline for the yule logs and indulge in the roast potatoes on the big day. But many of us use ‘oh, whatever, it’s Christmas’ as an excuse to justify out-of-control eating habits. Treat December like any other month (and therefore pretend that you have a pine tree in your living room and tinsel around your lampshades all year round), and it means you can afford to go all out on the 25th.

Step 2: Start making changes.
There’s no unwritten rule that says you can’t join your local gym halfway through December. Spoiler alert: if you sign up and start paying for it, you’ll be far more inclined to use it since you’re already paying for it. And if you’re already motivated to use it, it’s going to make ticking the box next to ‘lose weight’ or ‘get fitter’ on your resolution list far easier. This also applies to food habits: if you’re going to try and eat healthier in the new year, why not start now and slowly work more vegetables and fruit into your diet to make that change easier?

Step 3: Don’t stress about it.
Your resolutions are not law. You won’t be doing anything wrong by taking a break from them, or not doing exactly what you intended to when you first wrote them. Congratulate yourself on your progress and don’t make it into a very black-and-white, “I either succeeded or I failed” thing.

Those who post their updates publicly on Facebook are more susceptible to feeling bad or stressing about them due to everyone else knowing that they’re trying to achieve something – so when it turns out that you might not be able to do it, the shame of confessing it on social media can make you feel worse. But here’s the thing: social media doesn’t have to know. Tell everyone when you’ve achieved something, not when you plan to. Of course, not having to publicly admit defeat can be a source of motivation for some, but for others it may just increase the stress of it all, thus leading to a bigger ‘crash’ when you give up.

Above all, enjoy Christmas. Eat, drink, be merry, and don’t worry too much, because everyone all over the world is doing just the same as you are. But if you feel like you do need a little kick to help you recover after the Christmas dinner, why not try LiveWell Health’s personal training services or nutrition services to keep you on track?

Exercising In The Heat

Posted on

Exercising in hot weather can present a number of challenges for athletes and fitness enthusiasts alike. While the heat can provide an added cardiovascular challenge, it also requires careful consideration of fluid balance and hydration to ensure safe and effective performance. In this article, we will explore the science behind exercising in the heat, the benefits and risks associated with this type of exercise, and the best practices for staying hydrated and safe when engaging in physical activity in warm or hot weather.

The Science of Exercising in the Heat

Exercising in the heat places additional stress on the body due to the increased workload required to regulate internal body temperature. This can result in increased sweating and fluid loss, leading to dehydration and other heat-related conditions.

In order to regulate body temperature, the body must transfer heat from the internal environment to the external environment. This is accomplished through sweating, which is facilitated by the sweat glands in the skin. The evaporation of sweat from the skin helps to cool the body and maintain internal temperature. However, this also results in fluid loss that must be replaced to prevent dehydration.

 

For athletes and fitness enthusiasts, exercising in the heat can offer several benefits, including:

  • Improved cardiovascular fitness: Exercising in hot weather can provide a more challenging cardiovascular workout, helping to improve overall fitness and endurance.
  • Increased calorie burn: The body must work harder to regulate internal temperature in hot weather, resulting in an increased calorie burn during exercise.
  • Improved heat adaptation: Regular exercise in hot weather can help the body to adapt and become more efficient at regulating internal temperature, improving performance in warm conditions.

 

While there are benefits to exercising in the heat, it is important to be aware of the associated risks, including:

  • Dehydration: The increased fluid loss from sweating can result in dehydration, which can negatively impact performance and increase the risk of heat-related conditions.
  • Heat exhaustion: Symptoms of heat exhaustion can include dizziness, headache, and fatigue, and can result from dehydration and overheating.
  • Heat stroke: In severe cases, heat exhaustion can progress to heat stroke, which is a life-threatening condition characterized by a high body temperature, confusion, and unconsciousness.

Prevention

To ensure safe and effective performance when exercising in the heat, it is important to follow the best practices:

  • Hydrate before and during exercise: Adequate hydration before and during exercise is essential to prevent dehydration and related heat-related conditions.
  • Wear appropriate clothing: Lightweight, breathable clothing can help to regulate internal temperature and prevent overheating.
  • Exercise at cooler times of day: Exercising in the early morning or late evening, when temperatures are cooler, can help to reduce the risk of heat-related conditions.
  • Gradually acclimate to the heat: Gradually increasing exposure to hot weather over several days can help the body to adapt and become more efficient at regulating internal temperature.
  • Monitor for symptoms of heat-related conditions: Pay attention to symptoms such as headache, dizziness, and fatigue, and seek medical attention if these symptoms persist or worsen.

In conclusion, exercising in the heat can provide a more challenging workout and improve cardiovascular fitness, but it also requires careful consideration of fluid balance and hydration to ensure safe and effective performance. By following the best practices outlined above, athletes and fitness enthusiasts can enjoy the benefits of exercising in hot weather while minimizing the risks associated with this type of exercise.

Resistance Training For Older Adults

Posted on

Resistance training is a type of physical exercise that involves the use of resistance such as weights or resistance bands to help build strength and muscle mass. This is beneficial for all ages especially for older adults, as it helps the improvement of overall health and the quality of life.

Unfortunately, as we age muscle mass suffers from a yearly decline, however, using resistance training can prevent/slow down this decline. Some benefits from resistance training for older adults include:

  • Improved muscular function and movement
  • Improved balance and reduced fall risk
  • Maintenance of good health

Here are some tips for older adults looking to begin or continue resistance training:

1. Consulting with a healthcare professional: before starting a new program, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional, if you have any underlying health conditions.

2. Start slowly: beginning with lighter weights and fewer repetitions will gradually increase the improvement of strength and endurance. It’s also important to allow rest and recovery time between workouts.

3. Listening to your body: paying attention to how your body feels during or after training. Experiencing any pain or discomfort, it is required to stop the exercise and consult with a healthcare professional.

4. Incorporate variety: having a variety of exercises to target many different muscle groups and preventing boredom – exercise should be fun! This can help by preventing overuse injuries from repetitive movements.

Overall, resistance training can be a safe and effective form of exercise for older adults by providing proper guidance and caution to help the improvement of strength, balance and overall health.

Exercises for the lower back

Posted on

Incorporating exercises that target the lower back into a well-rounded fitness routine can contribute to better posture, reduced risk of injury, improved functional movement, and overall spinal health. It’s important to perform these exercises with proper form and technique to maximize benefits and minimize the risk of injury.

Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new exercise program, especially if you have a history of lower back problems or injuries.

Anatomy

The lower back, also known as the lumbar region, is a complex structure consisting of bones, muscles, ligaments, nerves, and discs. Understanding the anatomy of the lower back is essential for maintaining spinal health and preventing injuries. Here’s an overview of the anatomy of the lower back:

  1. Vertebrae: The lower back is comprised of five vertebrae known as L1 through L5. These vertebrae are the largest in the spine and bear much of the body’s weight. The vertebrae are separated by intervertebral discs, which act as cushions and provide flexibility to the spine.
  2. Intervertebral Discs: Intervertebral discs are fibrous structures located between each vertebra. They consist of a tough outer layer called the annulus fibrosus and a gel-like inner core called the nucleus pulposus. Intervertebral discs help absorb shock, distribute pressure evenly along the spine, and allow for movement.
  3. Spinal Ligaments: Ligaments are strong bands of connective tissue that help stabilize the spine and support its various movements. In the lower back, several ligaments run along the front, back, and sides of the vertebrae, including the anterior longitudinal ligament, posterior longitudinal ligament, ligamentum flavum, and interspinous ligaments.
  4. Muscles: The muscles of the lower back provide support and stability to the spine, facilitate movement, and help maintain posture. Key muscles include:
    • Erector Spinae: This group of muscles runs along the length of the spine and helps extend the back and maintain an upright posture.
    • Multifidus: These small muscles lie deep in the spine and provide stability to individual vertebrae.
    • Quadratus Lumborum: Located on the sides of the lower back, these muscles help stabilize the pelvis and spine and assist with lateral flexion and extension.
    • Transversus Abdominis: While primarily considered part of the core musculature, the transversus abdominis also contributes to lower back stability by providing support to the lumbar spine.
  5. Nerves: Nerves in the lower back transmit signals between the brain and the rest of the body, controlling movement and sensation. The lumbar spinal nerves branch off from the spinal cord and innervate the lower back, hips, buttocks, legs, and feet.

Understanding the anatomy of the lower back can help individuals take proactive measures to maintain spinal health, prevent injuries, and address any issues that may arise. Proper posture, regular exercise, flexibility training, and ergonomic practices can all contribute to a healthy lower back and overall spinal function.

Exercises

1. Superman: Lie face down on the floor with your arms extended overhead and your legs straight. Lift your arms, chest, and legs off the floor as high as possible and hold for a few seconds before lowering back down.
2. Bridges: Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Raise your hips towards the ceiling, keeping your feet and shoulders on the ground, hold for a few seconds, and lower back down.
3. Bird Dogs: Start on your hands and knees with your hands directly under your shoulders and your knees under your hips. Extend your right arm and left leg straight and hold for a few seconds before returning to the starting position. Repeat with your left arm and right leg.
4. Plank: Start in a push-up position with your arms straight and your wrists under your shoulders. Lower your forearms to the ground and hold your body straight from your head to your heels.
5. Cat-Cow Stretch: Start on your hands and knees with your hands directly under your shoulders and your knees under your hips. Arch your back towards the ceiling as you exhale, then round your spine as you inhale.
Focusing on proper form and starting with lighter weights or low repetitions is essential to prevent injury. If you have chronic or acute pain in your lower back, consult a healthcare professional before starting any exercise program.

The Secret Benefits Of HIIT

Posted on

The Secret Benefits Of HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training) That You May Not Have Known About

The mere mention of the word ‘high-intensity’ may make even the most hardcore exercise enthusiasts recoil in fear, but this specialised type of workout has incredible benefits that some don’t have any idea about.

The workout itself consists of fixed periods of low-intensity exercise (or even resting) followed by shorter bursts of a higher intensity. The term can apply to any workout that follows this pattern, from walking for two minutes and running for one to lifting weights for two minutes and resting for five. They are designed for you to put all or most of your energy into the ‘bursts’, ensuring that your heart rate stays raised and burning fat as you work.

However, burning fat is not the only good thing about HIIT; there are many science-proven health benefits that sound almost too good to be true.

– It boosts your metabolism.

When your heart rate increases, your breathing speed does too, so it makes sense that you consume way more oxygen during this particularly intense method of exercise. This oxygen excess leads to your metabolic rate boosting itself for over two hours after your workout, which not only means that you burn more calories during the exercise alone, but also…

– …you’ll burn calories even after leaving the gym!

Many people would agree that this is a serious plus to intense exercise. In trying to repair your muscles, your body’s recovery systems will work faster and more effectively, meaning you could still be burning fat and calories for up to 24 hours after your workout. (That means you can have that jam doughnut.)

– It’s free.

Forget expensive treadmills and cross-trainers – all you need for a good session of HIIT is an open space and motivation. HIIT relies on utilising your own body weight to burn calories and fat, so even something as simple as high knees or jumping jacks can end up more effective than weights or other costly equipment. This is because you’re focusing more on your heart rate during these workouts, rather than building muscle or toning a particular area as you may do whilst lifting weights or using an exercise bike.

– It keeps your heart working well.

Interval training makes it easier for people to hit the point of heart-pounding anaerobic activity; this is due to the rest periods between bursts giving your body time to recover whilst keeping your heart rate up. It also improves your circulation and maintains a healthy rate of blood flow, something which keeps your mind sharp and focused, and can help you to better deal with stress.

– It builds up your endurance levels.

This means that you’ll be able to exercise for longer in pretty much anything, from running to cycling and swimming to hiking, and you’ll have more energy to use for everyday activities too. Not only does that make HIIT great ‘in the moment’, but it means that you’ll be seeing the benefits of it no matter what you do or when you do it.

And finally…

– It’s fun!

With no specialised equipment or fitness levels needed, HIIT provides beginners with a great way to see fast results and experts with different challenges that they’ll never get bored of. Similar to a dog or a good pair of jeans, this kind of workout will stick with you for life.

If you’re interested in trying out HIIT but don’t know where to begin, why not check out LiveWell Health’s personal training scheme, Including a nutrition plan for beginners and a personalised scheme that works to fit you, our programs are designed to help you become the best that you can be.
