Do you have sugar and carb cravings that just drive you nuts?
Do you suffer from fatigue, lethargy, depression or anxiety?
Do you feel like total crap (brain fog, cloudy thinking, no concentration) when you go on a “diet.â€
If you answered “YES!†to any of those questions, well my friend, you’re not alone. There are MILLIONS of other Americans who struggle to lose weight and keep it off.
This video goes over how to apply stability and torque into the hips when we do a lower body exercise like squats, deadlifts, swings, etc……https://improvementwarriorfitness.com/torque1/ Please watch if you have not yet and practice while I take you though it.
2.—- Torque video is up for the SHOULDER. Please watch. This video explains why it’s so important to create stability in the shoulders. Pushups is the focus here, but if you know how to create torque in your shoulders during the pushup then you know how to do it with every upper body exercise.
3.—— Mobilization Playlist-Â This is our first mobilization playlist. Remember no more foam rolling before class, instead we will be doing mobilizations to restore mobility and suppleness to your body and joints and muscles. Foam rolling and mobilizations can be done after the F.L.Os and at home or office. Home and office is highly recommended.
Here is the playlist for all of our mobilizations for this phase:
8. New Partners— NEW-Â endocrinologist, Chiropractor and Physical Therapy
#3-Â
We have partnered with an endocrinologist!
We at Improvement Warrior Fitness and Athletic Revolution-Hilliard are super excited to add this partner to our team. I visited her a couple weeks ago because I had heard that she is not average doctor and truly believes in a holistic approach to nutrition, health and fitness; much like IWF and AR are as well.
Some of you may be asking what is an endocrinologist do?
An endocrinologist is a medical specialist that focuses on the systems of the body that are managed by hormones.
If hormones are out of whack then ultimate health is impossible. Weight loss and fat loss will be extremely difficult, if not impossible. And performance in workouts, games, practices, and even life will be off.
Here is Dr. Elena’s website and introduction letter: If you have any questions please contact her.
My Mom tells the story that ever since I could talk I told people that I wanted to be a doctor. Whether it was true or just became true over time, here I am. I entered medical school at the age of 21 thinking I had it all figured out. All I wanted was to be the best patient care advocate I could be and I was going to spend the next 4 years learning how to do that. Turns out having a good heart wasn’t enough, it was everything. I’d grown up on TV images of the family doctor sitting at the patient’s bedside to deliver news – bad or good. What always impressed me was how much a part of the family doctor seemed. The doctor was respected for their kindness as well as their intellect.
My family came to the states when my Dad got the one and only annual scholarship for our country.
Despite a grueling work schedule and language barriers, my parents both took on extra work to support the family. From them I learned that success is created through sweat and lots of hard work. 16 years into my private practice I can safely say I couldn’t be happier with my decisions to apply my family’s lessons.
I created a boutique practice to serve the needs of my patients. I love being part of my patient’s lives, their children and sometimes I’m honored enough to have their grandchildren as my patients as well. Endocrinology is one of those medical specialties that often involves multiple generations. What has been the most rewarding for me is the opportunity to affect positive change in later generations after we see and treat disease in older population. Taking the lessons that the older patients teach me about their disease as we apply them to the next generation in their family is literally how I spend my days. Moving from room to room, everything they tell me builds onto the next patient and the next and the next. So whether I’m dealing with a simple thyroid case or a complex research patient, I think I have the best job in the world!
#1- New partnership with a local Columbus Chiropractor: Lane Avenue Chiropractic
I met with Dr. Jay and our visions matched perfectly.
We want to bring to you the best options of health and injury prevention/repair. Whether that pain has been recurring for a while or just started it still is pain and that is an indication that something is wrong.
If you don’t take care of it, the pain will eventually get worse or even require surgery. Plus, you don’t have to live with pain.
The body tells you when things are wrong. It’s smart 🙂
That’s why we recommend foam/lacrosse ball rolling every day. And are starting the Improvement Boards.
The body is a complex machine, if you take it to the limit every day and don’t take care of it, then it will break down eventually.
And that is why we are teaming up with Dr. Jay Villella and his staff at Lane Avenue Chiropractic. He will be one of our partners that we send people to when the body does break down, but also more importantly we hope you will take advantage of him and his staff BEFORE your body breaks down.
Myself and the coaches at IWF will also help to prevent the breakdown as well. You just got one body and it needs to last and be strong!
#2—Â We have partnered with Craig Wellman of Drayer Physical Therapy.
They offer a free screening for their ‘bumps and bruises’ program. So if you aches, pain, bumps, bruises that won’t go away, nagging injuries that you think are just part of life—– then have it checked it out.
Remember pain is not normal, it’s your bodies way of telling you something is wrong. The body can heal 🙂
They work with young children all the way up to seniors.
Let them know IWF sent you if you go. Here is the link to their flyer and contact information: They are in Hilliard and Grove City
