Fitness is at the center of what we do.
To Tilla Fit, fitness isn’t optional.
It’s something that every person needs.
And this isn’t a plug for Tilla Fit, because we aren’t for everyone.
Regardless if you work out with us, or at any other gym in the area, we want you working out.
This is our effort to show the community why fitness is a priority.
Here is reason number 24 of 52 for why we need fitness, and what it means to us!
“Joint Health”
It might sound strange, but when your body starts to hurt, that’s often your sign to move more, not less.
Most people think pain means “stop.”
But in reality, the best thing you can do for your joints, your knees, hips, shoulders, and back, is to strengthen them through movement.
Your joints thrive on motion.
Every time you move, you’re circulating synovial fluid (the joint’s natural lubricant) helping cartilage stay healthy and reducing stiffness.
When you stop moving, that lubrication slows down.
Your muscles weaken.
And pain sets in.
Research consistently shows that regular strength training and low-impact exercise reduce joint pain, improve mobility, and even delay the progression of arthritis. In fact, the Arthritis Foundation RECOMMENDS exercise as one of the most effective ways to reduce chronic joint pain.
Here’s the truth:
You can choose chronic pain from inactivity, or you can choose a little soreness from rebuilding your body stronger.
Movement breaks down your body just enough to rebuild it better, stronger muscles, more resilient joints, and less day-to-day pain.
So, the next time your body aches, don’t retreat.
Train your joints to support you, not slow you down.
