Yoga has a way of calming the nervous system. Through deep breathing, long stretches and relaxing postures, yoga can help induce a good night’s sleep so you feel rested and ready for the day that lies ahead. πŸ§˜πŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ’€

This simple yoga sequence is easy to do right before bed. Gather a pillow or two and find a wall with a little space around it. You may want to put on some soothing music, dim the lights and put on your cozy pajamas before you practice, as you will want to head straight to bed following the sequence.

As exercise professionals, it's crucial to stay updated with the latest research to best support our clients. This carousel post breaks down a recent study on the impact of whey protein supplementation combined with resistance exercise training (RET) on muscle mass and strength in older adults with sarcopenia.

πŸ” Key Takeaways:
-Sarcopenia leads to decreased muscle mass and strength, increasing health risks in older adults.

-Research with participants with sarcopenia is scarce, so it’s inconclusive whether combining whey protein supplementation with RET can make a significant difference.

-Individualized, progressive RET programs of moderate to high intensity (70-80% 1RM) are most effective.

-Regular monitoring and tailored exercise plans are crucial for optimal results.

πŸ‘©πŸ”¬Exercise professionals, dive into the evidence and enhance your training programs with these insights. Let's help our older clients achieve their best physical health and performance.
