Blue Light & Your Health
In today’s world, thanks to the high presence of screens in our lives, we are exposed to an increased level of blue light. Harmful blue light can affect your sleep, behavior and overall eye health. 1 in 4 Children spend 3 or more hours per day using digital devices and about 30% of adults spend more than 9 hours a day exposed to blue light. Protect yourself and your loved ones by: 1) Reducing your screen brightness and limit time spent with digital devices. 2) Following the 20/20 rule; Every 20 minutes look at something 20ft away for 20 seconds, and 3) Wear blue light filter lenses.

Building Core Stability
It’s important to establish spine stabilization prior to core strengthening. Mobility at joints such as the hips, and stability through the lumbar spine, create the base to strengthen the whole body. By building spine stability, you prevent the risk of injury and improve results when you build whole body and joint stability. Train core muscles to provide adequate stabilization before training movement, strength, and power. When we use our arms and legs, moving from our CORE, it’s designed to amplify power… NOT generate it. Learn more about how you can become strong, stable, and resilient at Functional Movement Flow/Ram Fitness.
