When assessing clients and creating programs that not only deliver results but also lead to longevity, it’s important to assess and incorporate different plans of motion. We find clients and athletes are well adapted to the working in the sagittal plan of motion (front to back). However, when it comes to moving in the other plans of motion; frontal (right to left) or transverse (up, down, rotation), we often find limitations and/or compensations. Much like someone who has a strength imbalance compensation from right to left, we also find imbalances and compensations when it comes to plans of motion. Thus, is why as a part of our Surge Athletic/Functional Symmetry system we incorporate different plans of motion. Whether that be different movement patterns, different heights, different angles, or different rotations, we strive for symmetry.Read more

Flexibility is a joints ability to move passively through a range of motion. This is an important component when looking at the profile of athletic or functional symmetry. A muscle’s ability to contract or fire is dependent on the joints angle. Therefore, if a joint doesn’t currently possess the ability to get into certain positions, it means targeted muscles are going to underperform, and or compensation patterns will begin. Surge functional symmetry isn’t about one element of fitness. It’s understanding that each component is important and is going to influence the areas. How is your flexibility today?Read more

1) SalmonIs a great source of omega-3 fats EPA and DHA, which have been linked to decreasing inflammation in the walls of blood vessels. In addition, salmon contains astaxanthin, which is what gives salmon it’s pink color. This nutrient has can help reduce oxidized LDL cholesterol. 2) BlueberriesThis superfood is loaded with fiber and phytonutrients that hunt free radicals. This helps repair damaged proteins in blood vessel walls and improves insulin sensitivity. 3) EggsAlthough eggs are often a hot topic. Eggs have naturally high concentration of selenium, lutein, and zeaxanthin, which have an anti-inflammatory effect on the vascular system. Furthermore, eggs are a great source of protein and raise levels of the adiponectin. Adiponectin is a hormone that improves reverse cholesterol transport so that more HDL is produced in the liver. 4) BeetsBeets contain compounds known as nitrates, which increases nitric oxide. This is a molecule that allows blood vessels...Read more
