An aspect that people often neglect, but which is essential for quality of life, is without a doubt their physical fitness. Most people usually think they are in good shape, but are they really? How about yourself? Do the physical activities that you participate in seem to be more difficult than in the past? Do you get out of breath faster? Do you have sore muscles more often?
Perhaps this is the case. Although you do physical activity (golf, tennis, etc.), you still suffer from back pain, painful joints or chronic fatigue. This is often due to overworking specific muscles, since the same muscle groups are constantly being used. Over time, this causes muscular imbalances,* poor postural alignment, a curved back, hyperlordosis, joint pain, etc.
These imbalances that we notice among the general population decrease a person's physical ability. This leads to an increase in injuries, reduced muscle strength and decreased efficiency in everyday activities and at work (increased absenteeism).
Joining a sports club may seem to help you. But is that true?
There is only one way to be sure that a training program is effective: it must be designed specifically for you. This requires assessing your posture, strengths and particularly your muscle weaknesses. It is essential to check the flexibility of specific muscle groups and pinpoint any muscular tension. This will determine the process to re-habilitate the muscle without damaging it by hasty or intense body building.
To design an appropriate training program, you first need to have a complete picture of your physical profile (pace of life, medical and sports history, chronic and intermittent pain). The training program will be effective and will achieve the expected results without risking your well-being.

* Muscular imbalance occurs when a muscle near a joint is stronger or more contracted than others. This stiff muscle upsets the ideal balance, resulting in significant tension on the joint and causing pain.
