The state of our bodies largely depends on what and how we do things during this time – what movements we make, what static body positions we take, and how often we change them.The human body can move in many different ways, but not all movements are equal. It’s possible to move in ways that are efficient, safe, and strengthen the body, thus promoting its well-being and longevity. It is also possible to move in ways that, in the long run, can cause discomfort, pain, and injury. By incorporating functional movement into our everyday lives, we promote healthy bodily function and longevity while reducing muscle and joint stiffness (caused by a sedentary lifestyle) and preventing injuries. Moving with awareness and making small changes, if necessary, to our movement and body positioning habits paves the way to our physical well-being and the ability to move freely for the duration of our lives. We will take a look at squatting, bending, posture, gait and explore different ways to sit, incorporating movement and stretching while doing so.(Language – English)Tags: Functional movement, Daily movement hacks, AlignmentArmands Lucijanovs, together with his brother Raivis, is in the process of creating a company that will offer educational services on healthy habits regarding sleep and movement.

He started playing football and ice-skating at the age of seven, almost forty years ago, and still does so to this day. He has run two marathons, a half marathon, numerous 10K and 5K races. He has participated in a famous Latvian endurance event – a 136-km walk from Kolka to Dubulti that one must complete in under 55 hours. Armands also likes throwing baseballs, juggling and, one of his favourites, slacklining. from NGO “Miega ieradumu centrs” (Sleep habits center) in his lecture “Biohacking sleep” will provide the benchmark for determining existing sleep quality before speaking about the significant role of quality sleep to aim for the quality lifespan well above 50 years (that is the current threshold for the average Latvian).
