getting a dexascan and learning your vo2 max and resting metabolic rate can give you a much bigger picture of your health than the number on the scale ever could 👀

a dexascan looks at your bone density muscle mass and body fat distribution which can help you understand your risk for bone loss and how your body composition is changing over time 🦴

your vo2 max is essentially a measure of how well your body uses oxygen during exercise and is one of the best indicators we have of cardiovascular fitness and overall aerobic health 💚

your resting metabolic rate tells you how much energy your body needs just to keep you alive and functioning at rest including things like breathing circulation and keeping your organs working

these numbers are not about chasing a perfect body or obsessing over measurements

they are tools that can help you understand your health identify areas to improve and track progress in a way that goes far beyond weight alone💪

knowledge is power and understanding what is happening inside your body can help you make more informed decisions about your fitness and long term health🧠

you only get one heart and one body so take care of both 👀

cardio isnt something you have to do its something you get to do!

every step every mile every minute you spend moving is an investment in your future self 💛

its about having the energy to do more the confidence to keep showing up the resilience to handle lifes challenges and the strength to keep doing what you love for years to come

dont chase exhaustion chase longevity chase feeling good chase becoming the healthiest version of yourself because your body will thank you for it 😌

lifting heavier doesnt just make you stronger it teaches your body to produce force faster 💨

that explosive power is exactly what helps you jump higher

thats why movements like cleans and snatches have been used by athletes for years to build a better vertical 👀

train for power not just strength and watch what happens!

sometimes the strongest thing you can do for yourself is show up

not every workout is about building muscle or burning calories

sometimes it’s about clearing your mind processing your emotions finding your confidence or giving yourself one hour where nothing else matters

your body benefits but your mind thanks you first

the gym isn’t always about changing how you look sometimes it’s about changing how you feel 🤍

there is nothing more rewarding than keeping a promise to yourself ESPECIALLY when it’s towards your fitness goals 😌

treat your gym session the same way you’d treat going out with a friend - don’t cancel and try not to cancel last minute 👀

once you start keeping these promises to yourself, it creates a compound effect and will slowly become a habit! your health is everything … don’t allow yourself to lose that if you can help it!!!

create a promise to yourself and get some movement in today of some sorts!!!

both serve a purpose! but personally i think outdoor running is a lot more fun 👀

depending on your goals and what’s available to you, the goal is to keep running! and what you feel most uncomfortable with, will slowly become more comfortable for you!

there’s so much to learn about running … it’s not just taking off so i hope this helps guide you with your own running journey!
