Hello Friends and Happy New Year,
I have not been a fan of New Year’s resolutions for a number of years because they usually end in failure.
But I am a big fan of changing habits. And one habit I have been harping on for years is strength training. Yes, that is correct. Joining a gym and learning how to be as strong as you can be.

Why? Because as you age, muscle mass is the key to longevity. People who are too skinny and frail, and people who are too heavy and frail, get sick and injured way too often and simply cannot enter into life fully. And they get sick and injured. Did I mention…sick and injured?
For this month at Swaim Chiropractic, we will be focusing on strength training, and for those of you in Owyhee County, that means getting stronger. We will be sending out articles and blogs on this subject, and nutritional advice as well.
For those of you who kept reading past “join a gym”, here is the offer:
We have teamed up with a personal trainer to give you the best possible experience in the gym. Particularly if you are unsure of how to start or what to do.
Here is a quick bio that I wrote for Kalah Kren:
Kalah Kren
Kalah is strong and she believes you should be too, no matter what age. She is trained in the “Body By Science” method of training, an extremely efficient and effective way to build muscle and health. Kalah has been training herself for a long time and she puts her money where her mouth is. And she is fun.
Kalah is offering a $25 per session (usually a half hour-ish) for our clients for the month of January. If you don’t have a gym, you can meet her at hers. She is flexible on the time and place.
Folks, this is a great offer, and one I cannot recommend highly enough. So many of you need this! Stop being intimidated by the gym and call Kalah, (208) 960-8487.
Included here are a list of gyms, affordable ones and you don’t have to maintain equipment! You only need to show up!!
Gyms:
Idaho Fitness Factory (our gym): IFF Link
Crunch: Crunch Link
Planet Fitness: Planet Fitness Link
Anytime Fitness: Anytime Fitness Link
Harwood Rec Center: Harwood Rec Link (This one is our lowest recommendation, due to our experiences with the poor attitudes of the trainers and the over-extending rules of the weight room – not user friendly or helpful for what we are recommending for you. Also, they will not allow Kahla to train you there)
Many of these gyms have locations in other parts of the Treasure Valley, making it easy for wherever you live or work to find something convenient for you!
