Hey Duhawks, Just because you're going away and taking a break from school doesn't mean that you need to take a break from exercising. Some ways that you can exercise during break include swimming, hiking, snowboarding, and going on walks. Let's keep moving over break! #LoCoKin

Stop stretching the wrong way!! Static vs. Dynamic Stretching 🔹 Dynamic Stretching before workout improves mobility, injury prevention & performance. 🔹 Static Stretching after workout aids in relaxation & recovery. #kinesiology

The term “superfood” gets thrown around a lot in the nutrition world to describe foods with a lot of nutrients/health benefits. While it’s not a scientific term, the Kiwi might be the best example, boasting vitamin contents higher than most other fruit! #kinesiology #nutrition
