Exercise Prescriptions

Just like food exercise is also a prescription. The proper forms of exercise can create adaptations in the body that will provide better health and body composition. For example, if someone has pain in their lower back, the proper prescription of exercises will help to reduce the pain in their back. Another example, is for people with hormonal imbalances. If someone has a cortisol imbalance that causes them to store weight in their abdominal region then the worst thing they can do is over train and do excess cardiovascular work. These forms of exercise will only make the situation worse. If the proper forms of exercise are prescribed then the hormones will re balance themselves, assuming that the diet is in line. Just remember that the food we put in our mouths and the exercise that we perform are drugs. They have very powerful effects on our health and body composition.
