Benefits of WholySpoves

  • WHOLYSPOVES helps to improve flexibility. Flexibility refers to the ease with which one may move a joint through a specific range of motion. The greater one’s flexibility, the greater the range of motion a joint can move through. Tight muscles make many tasks difficult. By keeping the body flexible, many daily tasks such as bending and lifting are much easier.

  • WHOLYSPOVES provides bodyweight resistance exercises in a number of our postures. Here we demonstrate The Altar posture which helps to strengthen arms, shoulders, and core abdominal muscles.

  • Benefits include increased strength, improved bone health, controlled body fat, and decreased risk of injury.

  • WHOLYSPOVES assists in weight loss. Improving your flexibility with WHOLYSPOVES can also help you during other forms of exercise such as walking, cycling, and strength training, thereby improving your ability to exercise with more energy, burn more calories, and lose weight.

  • By improving your flexibility and strengthening your muscles with WHOLYSPOVES, you will not only enhance your ability to perform daily tasks, but you will also improve your posture, helping alleviate common aches and pains, reduce back pain, and increasing your overall sense of health and well-being.

  • WHOLYSPOVES incorporates full-body stretching. This helps reduce stress and tension, leaving you feel refreshed with increased vitality.

  • Blood pressure and resting heart rate can drop significantly after stretching regularly. This in turn reduces your risk of cardiovascular disease, a leading cause of death globally.

  • WHOLYSPOVES can help to improve circulation. Stretching facilitates the delivery of nutrients to muscles, and assists in the removal of waste products that build up in muscle tissue during exercise. Stretching assists the lymphatic system’s ability to remove toxins from the body.

  • WHOLYSPOVES can help alleviate stress. Stress causes muscles to contract. A persistently contracted muscle becomes stiff and painful.

  • WHOLYSPOVES not only helps relieve stiff and painful muscles but also decreases stress, promoting a relaxed disposition, thus giving a great sense of well-being.

  • WHOLYSPOVES can help injuries to heal. Stretching is widely used in the rehabilitation of injuries. By stretching injured muscles gently, muscle fibers heal more quickly, with less pain and stiffness, and more strength and resilience.

  • WHOLYSPOVES improves coordination and agility. As we become older the importance of flexibility increases. Lack of coordination and agility is a cause of numerous injuries and accidents. By increasing flexibility and promoting better coordination and agility, the likelihood of such injuries is reduced.

  • WHOLYSPOVES can help keep tissues healthier. Stretching encourages the release of tissue lubricants. It prevents muscle fibers from adhering to one another and forming cross linkages that inhibit the natural fluid movement of muscles. Stretching helps to keep the elastin component of our muscles and prevents the formation of stiff fibers. Stretching helps to keep tissues well hydrated and more functional.

“At the name of Jesus Every knee should now , of those in heaven and of those on earth and of those under the earth and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord , to the glory of God the Father.”

Philippians 2:10-11

  • Regular stretching can reduce the risk of injury, improving muscular performance and improving quality of life. There is also evidence that stretching may also reduce the mental and physical effects of stress and improve the function of internal organs.

  • Physically, WHOLYSPOVES strives to balance flexibility, strength, endurance, and relaxation. Exercises are performed through full ranges of movement. This increases the body’s ability to operate as one functional unit.

  • WHOLYSPOVES include gentle, deep diaphragmatic breathing, enhancing relaxation and flexibility. Muscles are stretched and strengthened through their full range of movement. Circulation improves. Internal organs, muscles, nerves, bones, and joints all seem to benefit from stretching, an integral part of WHOLYSPOVES.

  • During WHOLYSPOVES, the changes in body position combined with gentle, deep breathing stimulate circulation, helping nourish all body parts, and removing built-up toxins.

  • There is evidence that gentle stretches help prevent or reverse OSTEOPOROSIS, actually increasing bone density, and can ease symptoms of menopause.
