What does fitness mean to you?

Is it working hard all day, or playing golf or tennis, and having plenty of energy left for an evening of fun with your family and friends?

Is it enjoying the lifestyle you already have, and knowing you will continue to enjoy that for a very long time?

Does it include or require regular exercise?

Fitness is for everyone, and can be a sustainable lifestyle for a lifetime. For someone with a low-key or Less Active Lifestyle, a fitness goal might be to breathe easily while visiting friends or doing housework. People with more Active Lifestyles might have fitness goals that involve dancing, doing yoga, or running the kids around to their activities. Someone with an Athletic Lifestyle might define fitness in terms of the extra breathing capacity for competitive sports.

Less Active Lifestyle

“I don’t have time to exercise.”
“I’m not going to buy any exercise equipment that I might not use.”
“My spouse is always telling me that I have to exercise. But I don’t like exercise. It’s painful, uncomfortable, boring.”
“When I’m not at my job, working, I just want to relax and watch TV or hang out with friends.”

“Is FlexAware for me?”

If you have time to breathe, you have time for FlexAware. If you have lungs and a heart, you already have all the equipment you need.

FlexAware is based on the way very young children move and learn. Young children naturally move easily, effectively. They never do repetitive exercises. They reject or avoid activities that are unpleasant or boring.

The movements in FlexAware are designed to feel good while you do them.

Every FlexAware movement simultaneously relaxes tight muscles, strengthens weak muscles, mobilizes joints, improves circulation, and promotes an overall sense of ease and pleasure. That good feeling makes the movements self-reinforcing, so it doesn’t require a lot of will-power or self-discipline. It's about moving easily and eliminating excess effort. Some people call FlexAware “easercise” instead of exercise.

You can do FlexAware anywhere — sitting, standing, walking, lying down — so it can fit seamlessly into your everyday activities.

Ready to breathe more easily and move more comfortably? You can start now with FlexAware Fitness!

Active Lifestyle

“Yoga is my fitness and exercise routine, a few times a week.”
“I love golf. My wife plays tennis. We both like to ski, hike, and swim in the ocean.”
“Some days are so busy. Between work, kids, getting food on the table … ” 

“What can I expect from FlexAware?”

Your yoga will be more satisfying if you occasionally do FlexAware. You’ll realize a deeper expression of the postures. And you’ll discover ways to comfortably get into postures that once seemed impossible.

With golf, tennis, dancing, skiing, swimming, and other recreational activities, you’ll have more fun and be more successful. Here's how and why: All such activities start with breathing; someone who’s not breathing adequately can’t perform well, and in many cases won’t even try. FlexAware helps you breathe more freely, fully, naturally, and effectively. You’ll also be more aware of your whole body and more skillful in using the large strong muscles at the hip joints and pelvis. That awareness and skill leads to better performance.

On those busy days when you don’t have time to exercise, you can do some FlexAware while sitting at the dinner table with your family, standing in the kitchen washing dishes, walking to your car or the store, or working at your computer.

Athletic Lifestyle

“Sports and physical activities are my life, my passion, and I'm training for my next triathlon.”
“I’m always looking for ways to improve my skills and scores.” 

“Can practicing FlexAware do anything for me?”

FlexAware exercises use muscles throughout the body efficiently and harmoniously, giving you the benefits of stretching and strength-training at the same time. They're particularly designed to improve the length, strength, resilience, and coordination of all the breathing muscles, resulting in greater cardiovascular fitness.

Flex-ups™, a FlexAware exercise, strengthen your abs while relaxing and lengthening your back muscles. Extend-ups™ strengthen your arms and shoulders while increasing mobility of your spine, ribs, and hip joints — areas that remain rigid during push-ups and press-ups.

Conventional exercises often focus on individual muscles. Specific positions and movements and equipment seek to stretch this one or strengthen that one. In ordinary activities, however, muscles are never so isolated or specified. Every movement involves many muscles, some contracting, some lengthening, and others supporting or stabilizing. Every FlexAware exercise works to coordinate and optimize muscles throughout the body. FlexAware is truly functional fitness. 

When you make FlexAware part of your training and fitness regime, every exercise you do will be more effective. And more functional. And more enjoyable. Even a few minutes of FlexAware while warming-up or cooling-down provides great results.

Ready to be stronger, faster, and more flexible? Start now with FlexAware Fitness!
