1.   Functional Movement Emphasis: 

​

• Design workouts that replicate everyday activities—such as bending, lifting, and reaching—to improve real-life functionality.

• Incorporate exercises that enhance balance, coordination, and agility, which are essential for daily tasks and fall prevention.

• Every training program must incorporate the fundamental human movements: Push, Pull, Hinge, Squat, Loaded Carry

 

2.   Strength Training for Longevity:

​

• Prioritize resistance training to build muscle mass, improve bone density, and enhance joint stability.

• I stay away from fancy gym equipment, and prefer the use of bodyweight, resistance bands, and free weights to create a diverse and engaging training experience.
   

3.   Flexibility and Joint Mobility:
 

• Integrate stretching and mobility exercises into routines to maintain and improve range of motion and overall flexibility.

• Promote practices that enhance posture and alignment, reducing the risk of discomfort and injuries.
   

4.   Personalization:

​​

• Recognize diversity of fitness levels, health conditions and desired outcomes; customize programs to meet individual needs and goals.

• Offer modifications and alternatives to exercises, ensuring that everyone can participate safely and effectively.
   

5.   Consistent and Sustainable Practice:
 

• Focus on developing regular, moderate to vigorous exercise habits rather than high-intensity workouts (at least initially), promoting long-term adherence.

• Create enjoyable and varied sessions that can easily fit into busy lifestyles, making fitness a sustainable part of daily life.
