Why I have been prioritizing Resistance training
For the last year I’ve been working on gaining muscle mass through resistance/strength training.
Muscle is the key to a long & healthy life! A few of the benefits:
~ Promotes bone density
~ Stabilizes blood sugar levels
~ Enhances metabolism = more control of body fat %
~ Lowers risk of injury
~ Mentally & physically you feel amazing

Everyday I prioritize movement because it enhances my energy. If the workout you are doing is draining and depleting, it might be time to switch it up!
Movement should never be a punishment but instead a celebration of life and all that your body can do for you!

PSA: if there’s a day I feel fatigue/sore I listen to my body and refrain from partaking in an intense workout! Learning to listen to what I need each day instead of constantly pushing myself has helped me have more stable energy each day and heal my hormones.
