What are the Four Pilars of Health

9/13/2019

0 Comments

 
Picture
The Four Pilars of Health are the four most important parts of your daily routine, when these four pilars are strong, we create our optimal level of health.  

Sleep Habits
  • The foundation of our health is gauged by how well rested we are
  • We should be obtaining 6-8hrs, on a nightly basis
  • How is your quality of sleep?

Stress Level
  • ​Stress produces Cortisol, Cortisol retention leads to fat retention
  • When we create a healthy routine, our stress tends to decrease

Nutritional Intake
  • We should not be eating for more than 8hrs daily, the other 16hrs of the day are for processing the food we have already taken in

Exercise Habits
  • Physical activity is a natural way to essentially cleanse the body system
  • This "body cleaning" must take place no less than three times weekly

If you need to go over your routine, please feel free to schedule a Nutrition appointment with Tony, our Fitness and Nutrition Specialist!

What Our Clients Are Saying

I have just been thru the first stage of the program and couldn't be more impressed! As a second generation ff in the same big City I think this program is awesome and long over due. My Dad (same City FF) died at the age of 40 from an MI, although I believe heavy smoking and lack of Scott air packs at that time may have been a factor! I'm in my 31st year on Brockton Fire and soon plan to retire. Your knowledge of Fire/Police was a complete relief to all I'm sure. I know there's things I need to change, with your help I'll set new goals. A Big thank to all who helped put this program together! P.S. Ladies..one thing you'll never see outside a Fire House.........A Ferrari
