There was no Inner Wisdom Wednesday last week due to my personal issues trying to get my books replaced as someone had stolen my book bag along with it’s entire contents out of my car about a week and half ago while I was unloading my car. School takes priority over blogging when school is in session. I thank you for your understanding and also for your continued support of my blog and it’s mission. Have a great day.
If you’re experiencing mild soreness after workouts, don’t reach for the heating pad. Experts at the Mayo Clinic say that for the best relief, you should choose an ice pack instead! Apply a cool compress to the sore area for 20 minutes, every four to six hours, for the first few days. Remember, never put an ice pad or pack directly on your skin or you could get frostbite; rather, wrap the cool compress in a towel, then apply. After the pain and swelling subsides (usually within two to three days), begin heat therapy — applying warm compresses for 20 minutes, three times a day.
If your soreness gets worse or doesn’t go away, it could be the sign of a more serious problem, so call your doctor. And remember, the goal of any exercise is to get a good workout, not to torture your body. If you’re too sore for comfort on a regular basis, take the intensity down a notch! You’ll still get a great workout, without as much risk of injury!
Working out doesn’t just do your body good — it appears to keep you mentally fit as well! According to a study published in the Journal of Neuroscience, you can boost your brainpower just by staying active. To test their hypothesis, the researchers split a group of mice into two categories: one group was encouraged to be “couch potatoes,” while the other was encouraged to stay physically active. In the end, the fit mice had retained 13 percent more brainpower than the sedentary group.
While the researchers couldn’t say exactly why this happens, they found that exercise actually appears to encourage new neurons to grow — and new brain cells equals more brainpower. To maximize the effect, the researchers recommend that you also get plenty of “mental” gymnastics throughout your life, by doing crossword puzzles, taking classes, reading, and seeking out other mentally challenging experiences. Smart and fit — now that’s a winning combination for life!
