Understanding the sensory system is necessary for maintaining balance, coordination, and appropriate motor control. Proprioception, sometimes referred to as the body's 'sixth sense,' is the sensory system's ability to interpret the position, movement, and location of the body and its parts. This sense is crucial for performing tasks automatically without direct observation, such as typing on a keyboard or climbing stairs.

How to Properly Recover When Starting a Fitness Routine

Did you have a new year resolution to start a fitness routine? How is it going so far? If there is one thing that have learned after losing 65 pounds through diet and exercise, it is that you have to just keep trying. It is okay to have a bad day, just get right back to it the next day. It is also okay to listen to your body and take a rest day. I started cross training in June of 2019, and I have loved it. But after your first workout, you will be a different kind of sore. So here are my tips on how to properly recover when starting a fitness routine.

How to Support Recovery When Working Out in Your 30s

I received this product for free from Moms Meet to use and post my honest opinions. This post may contain affiliate links.

Here's the facts, we are no longer in our 20s anymore. We hurt ourselves when we sleep weird, we might have a grey hair or ten, and we don't like to stay up late or we'll feel horrible the next day. But we still have to work out and exercise to keep our bodies relatively in shape. So, what do we do? I have been on a health and wellness journey for a few years now. I started CrossFit in 2019 and while it was the best thing ever did for myself (I am in the best shape of my life), I am not as young as I once was. Even in the few years since I have started, I have realized that having a proper recovery routine is key to meeting my long-term goals. So here is my list of things that have started doing to help support recovery without breaking a hip.

WE DID IT! Running the Color Run 5K Atlanta

I told you all that we were going to be running our first 5k and I am happy to report that we did it! I was a nervous wreck before hand. I had been having serious pain in my hip and I didn't know if I was going to be able to power through. I decided my husband and I needed a non-weight goal to look forward to, so we signed up to run the Color Run 5K Atlanta. Since this was a fun run, you didn't have to run the entire time (just keep moving) which is why I loved it for our first 5k.


My husband and sister-in-law ran with me. My father-in-law was kind of enough to get up super early so we could head to the Atlanta Motor Speedway. I was worried about what to do with my phone and if I should wear my Bluetooth headphones or even my Fit Bit because I didn't want them to get ruined by paint. But the paint is powdered and you don't have to get any on you if you don't want to. It was a little chilly that morning, but I just knew I would get hot once we started running.
