You should!! The cold has surprising benefits for your mind + body. Use the cold to your advantage to become a better mover. There are plenty of winter workouts for runners and cyclists that can be done in colder weather. You can still get out + play…even in the winter! I remember when I would think about all the white snow I had to shovel in the back alley way of our apartment. Sometimes I would shovel one-half of the alley not only because I was a good guy (wink), but because this simple movement was getting my back strong and arms lean without having to go to the gym to pump some iron. My spine felt more stabilized + hips were extremely engaged which created a nice effortless full body workout. This is obviously not applicable for the more southern subtropical states, but I have a feeling you get my drift. Maybe for the southern tropics, you folks could build sandcastles on the beach with those tiny sandcastle shovels. Now that I've said that, I would like to switch places for this season. Come see the Cold Weather Workout Movement with us here.
Strong Posture for Less Pain

The 2 of the MOST CRITICAL joints when injured are, you guessed it, the Hips and Shoulders joints. Why?! The simple answer is walking and reaching. Nobody thinks about them being ball and socket joints performing conical movements and having oh so similar muscle stabilizers to that of their counterparts (the hip) perform the same function for their respected anatomical structures. No, nobody thinks about that stuff. At least, the hip is tucked in a socket that umbrellas a very large portion of the head of the femur, but the shoulder on the other hand; According to Gray's Anatomy (Not that Grey's Anatomy), the shoulder joint is a very mobile joint, as a result of the large, round humeral head, and shallow glenoid cavity (only about a third of the humeral head sits in the glenoid cavity). A (insert personal bleep word here) third of the humeral head! To give you a perspective, try gripping a wet third of door knob or a wet third of a lacrosse ball or a wet third of you know what I mean by now. Thankfully, we have Rotator Cuff musculature that keeps our shoulder in check.
So this reason I created videos for this article to keep your Shoulders Strong and as a BONUS keep your Posture Strong. What kind of chiropractic physician would I be if I didn't throw that in there. Here are 5 of my fave posture exercises for solid shoulder joints. Below is a link to Amazon so you could grab the proper bands you need to perform these movements at home. Keep Moving! Seal Jacks
