The Powerhouse of Movement: Strengthening the Core

January 15, 2013 by

1

The muscles of the core act to stabilize the spine, pelvis and shoulder girdle and consist of far more muscles than just the abs. The abs have very limited and specific actions while the core allows for all motion to take place by joining the upper body to the lower body and also the front […]

“What Am I After?”

January 5, 2013 by

1

by: Michele John When I began my journey with Genesis Transformation, it was all about dropping fat, getting healthy, sleeping better and changing up my life.   In my head, “changing up my life” meant getting my “after” photo (finally) when that magic number appeared on the scale.   Now don’t get me wrong, those are valid […]

Booty workout!

Our Glutes are rarely activated in everyday living, therefore; it is crucial to add a few glute activating exercises into your weekly workout routine for a firm, lifted and shapely hiney.

Another year has flown by and like a student sitting in the front row of a class, I feel I have learned so much.  In all honesty, during the  last couple of years my world has been one giant roller coaster of highs, lows, twists, turns and transitions.  During the high times, I breeze through […]
