We had a little impromptu breathing workshop here at dynafit last week 🫶🫁


Here's what we talked about:

# 1 MAKE SURE YOU AREN'T HOLDING YOUR BREATH!

This is in CAPS for a reason because it is the most important. Make sure you are breathing throughout your movement- especially when strength training!


# 2 breath in during the "relaxation" portion of the exercise. Example: in a squat you should be inhaling as you lower yourself towards the floor. In a cable row, you would be inhaling as you return the weight back towards the stack.


# 3 EXHALE as you exert the force. This is particularly important for exercises that require engagement of the core as the exhale portion of your breath allows for better contraction of the entire core muscle. Example: In a squat, you would exhale as you press through the movement to return to stand. In a cable row, you would exhale as you pull the weight towards you.

RECAP:

BREATHE during exercise

Exhale while exerting the force

Inhale during 'relaxation' phase of exercise

Your circumstances or priorities may have changed over the last year , which means your mortgage needs may also have changed. An annual mortgage checkup will help you make sure that: with the historically low rates caused by the pandemic, we’ve done the analysis needed to determine if you can take advantage of those low rates ; you are using your prepayment privileges to maximize your mortgage principal reduction ; large amounts of high-interest debt are transferred to a lower interest rate so you can have one manageable payment, boost your cash flow and save on interest costs (if you have enough equity in your home); you get a professional review of your options if your mortgage is renewing in the next 12 months ; and...
