Injury prevention is essential in maintaining a healthier life for seniors. Did you know that one in three adults aged 50 and over dies within 12 months of suffering a hip fracture. Many of the reasons seniors or older adults suffer these fractures can be prevented through a well designed exercise program focusing on strength, balance, proprioception and increasing ROM. Exercises such as the one in this video involving lateral resisted movements will aid in the clients longevity.

I love using kettle bells during my workout! They're amazing for rehab, prehab (injury prevention), performance development and general pop weight loss. HOWEVER, one thing that has seriously been bothering me is how people breath when doing KB swings. Chances are you're doing it wrong. Hear me out... when doing swings, we want to be using something called "performance" breathing 💨💨 We want our breath to match the movement, which means INHALING when the KB swings up (movement that expands the torso allowing for more air flow) and EXHALING on the way down (contracting the torso/protecting the core and back). Don't believe me? Go try it 👊🏼👊🏼

Get the hips loose with some leg whips.

Not your typical push ups. Prone position along with side to side movement really gets the heart rate up. Give it try!

Think you have good balance? Give this bosu exercise a try.
