Aside from chiropractic care, doing exercises can also help treat your body pain because it often leads to improved posture, range of motion and functionality of your body. However, a lot of people really dread working out for a lot of reasons but mostly because they don’t find it fun. So if you want to get all the benefits of exercising your body without feeling like torturing yourself, why not choose an activity that you will surely enjoy but delivers the same effect for your body?
1. Zumba
If you like to dance, try Zumba! It’s an aerobic workout that blends choreograph footwork and body movements from salsa, merengue, flamenco, and other dances to sculpt your body and burn fat. When you dance to the beat during Zumba class you won’t even realize that you’re also toning your abs, thighs, glutes, and arms at the same time!
2. Hula-Hooping
This may seem like a child’s play to you but underestimate how much it can slim your waist, hips, buttocks and thighs all while toning your abdominals and lower back muscles! When you come to think of it, it’s actually a great cardio workout that can also bring a lot of giggles.
3. Pole Dancing
Pole dancing forces you to build upper body strength in order to lift your body off the pole while doing all sorts of dance routines, spins on the pole, and floor routines. Doing all that definitely works out your entire body.
4. Indoor Rock Climbing
Since you’re constantly shifting your weight, using your legs to push yourself up and using your arms to pull yourself up when rock climbing, your build muscles all over the place and strengthen your core. Because of this, an hour of rock climbing alone can help you burn 800 calories! That’s some intense workout you don’t even realize.
5. Rope Jumping
Did you know that just 15 minutes of jumping rope can burn about 200 calories? This is why it’s one of the highly suggested cardio workout because it’s very effective yet you won’t dread to do because it doesn’t feel like a workout at all.
6. Fencing
Like a physical chess match, where you learn to anticipate your opponent’s next move and react to it. Fencing is an exciting mental and physical exercise. With its intense arm and footwork, fencing can really burn some calories. Aside from that, it can also help you improve your speed, flexibility, and coordination while toning the buttocks, stomach and thigh muscles.
7. Teaming Up
Instead of forcing yourself to go to the gym, why not play a sport you’ve always like. A team sports like soft ball or basketball can even be more enjoyable for you because it would really feel like you’re just playing and goofing around with your friends while still being able to get a good sweat throughout the game.
8. Skating
Skating looks fun, not to mention easy on the joints because you’re just practically gliding on ice. However, what many don’t know is that it’s a great calorie burner which you can do if you don’t like running. This is because it tones your lower body and builds leg strength.
Back pain, neck pain and sciatica are all kinds of musculoskeletal pain that can be debilitating and frustrating. Good thing chiropractic care is a treatment that not only provides immediate pain relief but gives results that also last longer. But did you know that you can make those results better by combining chiropractic care with exercising? But this doesn’t mean you only have to get your exercise at the gym. There are a lot of other ways to get your workout while still having fun! Patient engagement through active care can help empower the patient, increase confidence in their own capacity, and improve pain and function. This is why it’s important that you find a form of workout that you will definitely enjoy because that’s what make you stick with your workout. Otherwise, you will end up dropping the exercise altogether because you don’t enjoy doing it and you have to drag yourself to it.
