8 Ways to Add Movement to Daily Life

Movement Daily

Whole9 guest post by Coach Rut, who has over a quarter century of fitness coaching experience and holds academic degrees in biology and physical education, and Master’s degrees in exercise physiology and sports biomechanics. If you read the reports and the statistics, most people aren’t really getting more fit or any healthier. On my 5:00 a.m. commute to work, I pass four big chain pharmacies, all with a waiting line at the druggist counter. In spite of even more evidence pointing to … [Read more...]

How to Exercise When You Have Long-Term Health Restrictions

how to exercise with long term health restrictions

A Whole9 guest post by Kate Galliett, creator of Fit for Real Life and The Unbreakable Body, an online strength and mobility program. Where there has been significant injury, significant recovery is required. When living with a disease or condition that affects your long-term ability to engage in physical activity, exercise can be a double-edged sword. It releases endorphins that help you feel good, a welcome feeling when the frustration of physical limitations is also present. Exercise also … [Read more...]

Exercise and Attention Deficit Disorder

exercise adhd

A Whole9 guest post by Emily Deans M.D., a board certified psychiatrist with a practice in Massachusetts and a clinical instructor in psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. If you have lifelong trouble maintaining focus, can’t organize yourself or others, you fidget all the time, and are forgetful to the point where it regularly interferes with your daily functioning, you may have ADHD. You might avoid tasks that require long-term focus (such as school work) and fail to finish tedious duties … [Read more...]

Ask Whole9 Canada: The Importance Of Defining Health vs. Performance Goals

health vs performance goals

Welcome to Ask Whole9 Canada, where Summer Innanen and Sarah Ramsden answer all of your health and nutrition questions. In this week’s episode, Summer and Sarah discuss the importance of defining health versus performance goals. Having clearly defined goals is important to achieving the success you desire. When there are multiple goals, you risk having to sacrifice one area to achieve the greatest potential in the other. We can bucket the most common goals into three categories: health, … [Read more...]

Tips for Keeping Exercise Short, Simple & Effective

Note: Today we're featuring a guest post by Eva T., a two time Olympian in Alpine Skiing and a 12 year veteran of the U.S. Ski Team. Hundreds of people from all walks of life have benefited from her popular, personal and online coaching and health orientated recommendations.  Intention, Missed Workouts & Support With our busy lifestyles and the abundance of incoming stimuli, it often seems that our intention to workout is there, but suddenly the day is over and we are left with regret that … [Read more...]

Sleep: An Undervalued Ergogenic Aid

sleep

Note: The following is a repost from the Whole9 Archives. Enjoy! In February 2011, Dallas wrote an article for Performance Menu, the “journal of nutrition and athletic excellence” published each month by Greg Everett of Catalyst Athletics.  The article focused on the impact of sleep (or lack thereof) on your health and athletic performance. Thanks to the generosity of Catalyst Athletics, today we are offering Dallas' article for free - available to those without a subscription to … [Read more...]

Gym Best Practices

gym best practices

Group Fitness Classes: Best Practices from the Experts As a new gym owner or head trainer, you assume the responsibility of helping your clients meet their health and fitness goals. The hard work is up to them, of course, but unless you are making smart decisions about the way you run your gym, create your workouts, and manage your group classes, your clients’ hard work isn’t going to get them the results it should. Managing group classes is no easy feat, however. You’ve got multiple … [Read more...]

Are You Recovering or Just Resting?

Today, I’d like to talk about recovery. No, not economic recovery—though that would be lovely—but physiological recovery from the stressors placed upon us by our modern physical world. Rest vs. Recovery These two words, "rest" and "recovery," have distinctly different meanings when applied to health, fitness or athletic contexts. Recovery can encompass many different behaviors and strategies, but it is fundamentally different than just resting. Rest is simply the absence of effort or … [Read more...]

Introducing The Paleo Athlete

Today, we are thrilled to introduce our healthy-eating, performance-driven readers a brilliant new resource--one that dovetails beautifully with our new Whole Athlete seminar series. And it's brought to you by one half of the Whole Athlete team: Stephanie Gaudreau, of Stupid Easy Paleo. Even better? The other half of the Whole Athlete team, Dallas Hartwig of Whole9, wrote the foreword for this brand new e-book for athletes. Wow, you'd almost think this was coordinated or … [Read more...]

It’s Just Exercise (Part 2)

by Melissa Hartwig, who likes to argue both sides sometimes First, if you haven't read Part 1 in this series, please do so now - you'll need a little background to follow along with the discussion.  Last week, we talked about the idea that for most of us, our time in the gym is just exercise.  It's not our profession, it doesn't make us money, and if we happened to get pinned under a squat clean gone bad, Sports Illustrated isn't going to embarrass us with an ugly front page photo.  But while … [Read more...]
