For anyone who’s attempted to paddle against an oncoming current or bike against the wind, you know that momentum makes ALL the difference.
When it’s at your back, it propels you forward to whatever figurative or literal destination you desire. However, when it’s in your purview it acts as a MAJOR opposing force.
So why do I remind you of what you already know? Well, because momentum also carries alot of biological pull when it comes to health and disease. Pull which is so elegantly demonstrated by the relationship between exercise and the trillions of microorganisms which live within us.
It just so happens this is a beautiful “Help Me, Help You” biological relationship, where exercise has the ability to improve microbiome health… And microbiome health improves adaptive response to exercise….
That being said, just as good momentum builds on itself, so does the opposite. As modern-day lifestyle habits have made good microbiome health a rarity instead of a norm.
Good news is, your microbes are an ever-changing ecosystem, and adjust as you adjust. So lets see how moving your badonka-donk along with other lifestyle shifts can start bringing momentum back your way!
