Episode notes
Arm Exercise Routine
- Choose arm exercises that fit your routine and switch them up to avoid boredom.
- Focus on isometric exercises, which involve increasing muscle tension without lengthening or shortening the muscle.
Fascia and Collagen Synthesis
- Fascia, the tissue surrounding muscles and organs, is crucial for maintaining the body’s shape and sharing force during exercise.
- Stimulating fascia promotes collagen synthesis, essential for tightening and toning as we age.
Isometric and Eccentric Exercises
- Isometric exercises maximize muscle tension without changing muscle length, stimulating primary, secondary, and supporting muscles, as well as fascia.
- Eccentric movements involve slowly lengthening a muscle under tension, yielding faster toning results.
