SLEEP well
While we all occasionally miss out on getting enough sleep, long-term sleep deprivation can negatively impact both physical and mental health. High-quality sleep with adequate cycles of REM and deep sleep helps consolidate memories, enhance cognitive functioning, bolster our immune system and hormone production. Understanding sleep hygiene practices can empower everyone to work towards a good night's sleep, ultimately promoting well-being and health.

THINK well
Stress management is a powerful tools to optimize recovery. Recovery is necessary following the experience of physiological (environment, nutrition, training, injuries, etc.) and/or psychological (social/family/work relationships, etc.) stressors. As these are inevitable and sometimes even desirable, the objective is to find a balance between stress and recovery, giving the body the time and resources it needs. In this way, we avoid overexertion or chronic and unsustainable exhaustion in the long term.

eat well
Hippocrates, a Greek physician who lived more than 2,000 years ago, said that food would be our medicine. Things have changed since then and one could say that nutrition has become a controversial subject. Whether we use it to gain weight, lose weight, eat our emotions or fill a void, our relationship with food has never been more complicated. That's why we need to get back to basics by adopting a healthy diet and focusing on the variety and quality of what we consume; all this in harmony with your lifestyle and your goals of course.

move well
Without movement, there is no life!
To aspire to live a long and healthy life by reducing the impacts of aging (such as sarcopenia), it is essential to focus on various workouts that mimic everyday movements such as sitting, picking up an object, carrying bags, putting a box on top of the shelf, etc. To do this, functional training with or without weights is preferred, taking into account your age, your state of health and/or your personal goals.
