This is the time of year that we all begin to think about the new year and the resolutions of change that we will try to commit to this year. Beginning an exercise program is generally approached in that certain way: With enthusiasm, high hopes and a positive attitude.
Then the realization kicks in. It’s hard work, it hurts, can be slightly embarrassing when you are not as nimble or coordinated as you were back in the day and it now seems like the whole process may take a bit more sacrifice and effort than you had originally realized.
Your Choices:
- Take the short road, by putting in 100% effort and making yourself proud as you achieve exactly what you set out to do.
- Take the long road, which is filled with excuses because “you’re too busy right now and it can wait until you have more time” although you realize deep down that you’re afraid of getting started and that you may possibly never get to where you dream of going.
- Sit down and give up.
Commit to Win
An idea is just a dream until you write it down, then it becomes a goal. Sit down with your personal trainer or training partner before you commence a fitness program to map out your goals and any potential obstacles that could prevent you from achieving them. You will be setting yourself up for success when you have a clearly defined goal and a map to get there.
Do not be afraid to stop and ask for directions along the way if you find yourself losing focus. You will be surprised how many people around you would love to help you succeed on your journey.
Having accountability to someone other than yourself is vital. They can motivate you, help you over the road blocks you will run into, keeping you on the short road to fitness rather than the long road to nowhere!
We Are On Your Team!
Our team is here to help you do just that – Goal-Achieve-Win! If you would like to commit and goal to win this next year contact our office so we can help you finally achieve those health goals. We are ready to help you every step of the way!

Tis the season to be merry, but if you suffer from pain you feel you are more like Scrooge than Santa. The "Pinch" Being pinched hurts, but to pinch a nerve? Ugh! That must feel like severe, intense pain – and it often does. “Pinched” nerves can happen anywhere in your spine; they can...

One of the key tenets of chiropractic is that health is our natural state. If someone is not healthy which is often signaled by pain or disease, we look for what could be interfering with this natural state by looking for the underlying cause. With that in mind chiropractic care is primarily designed to improve...

As we get older, years of mechanical stress can lead to the deterioration of joints, ligaments, and tendons. This degenerative process, more commonly known as arthritis, primarily affects the weight-bearing joints in the body such as the hips and knees and those found in the lumbar spine. The shoulder, too, is also prone to undergo arthritic changes due to its extreme mobility. The extensive range of motion at the shoulder is built-in to the design of this structure, but the sacrifice for this is major instability.
Chronic injuries require rehabilitation programs that cater for the specific needs of the injury and a long-term approach. Patience is required for these rehabilitation programs and it is essential to remember that the problem has developed over a period of years and will not be fixed in a matter of weeks or months. Progress should be reached in the short-term, but such situations usually require consistent, ongoing attention to achieve the long-term solution.
Applying the appropriate rehabilitation program to chronic injuries is critically important and chiropractic care can be of great assistance in achieving the maximum rewards from a rehabilitation program. By enabling the maximum mobility of the spine and maximum function of your nerve system, regular chiropractic care is able to help maximize your body’s ability to recover from chronic injury. The strategic goal is to not only restore function but to revitalize the health of the entire body.

Engaging in an overall strength training program is an important approach to managing chronic pain. Strength training should be completed progressively, starting with lighter weights and progressing to heavier weights over time. If a person has experienced an acute injury, early rehabilitation should precede rehabilitative strength training.
