Flexibility is the ability of a joint or series of joints to move through an unrestricted, pain free range of motion. Active flexibility could be considered a workout in itself, as it is activating muscles in a way that is similar to yoga. It can be done before or after physical activity or as a stand-alone workout. The benefits of flexibility include injury prevention, enhanced athletic performance and better posture and balance.
Balance and stability training are often overlooked when developing a fitness program. Balance is a key component in fitness along with strength, endurance and flexibility. Some of the benefits include: body awareness, coordination, joint flexibility, faster reaction time and long-term health. Improving balance can also assist with performing your everyday activities like standing on your tiptoes, walking on uneven ground, participating in sports or throwing a ball with your kids.
In an ideal world, we all strive to maintain optimal health, physical fitness, and overall happiness. However, the challenges and obligations of daily life frequently impede our progress towards reaching our fitness objectives.
Tim Hemer, the founder of TrooperKat Fitness®, developed his passion for physical fitness back in 1959. By the summer of 1964, at the age of 19, he opened his first gym in Los Angeles. Initially focused on martial arts training, Tim provided private instruction to actors and athletes as interest in martial arts was on the rise in America. ... After coaching bodybuilders like Ray Routledge, who won the AAU Mr. America competition in 1961, Tim started weight training himself in 1967 and has been dedicated to it ever since. With his extensive and diverse experience in the fitness industry, Tim noticed a shift in his clients' needs over time. He realized that there was a lack of fitness centers catering specifically to the aging population. This realization led to the creation of TrooperKat Fitness®, where specially-trained personal instructors help seniors and individuals of all ages achieve their fitness goals in a personalized and supportive environment.
