Holistic Health as the Foundation for
Vitality and Wellbeing
Stability
On this exercise we are working on stability and core strength. Before loading the person with an external load, I first want to check if they can hold their own body weight with good form. Then we proceed into more complex exercises. This one is one of my favorites to re-establish stability and posture.
Mobility
In my experience most back stiffness, triggerpoints and tender points originate from the spinal and pelvic region. Mobilizing the spine vertebra by vertebra has been one of the most effective actions during my time of practice.
This exercise is the Feldenkrais Hip/Pelvis Integrator.

Spinal Assessments
Spinal assessments play a crucial role in designing a functional training program as they provide valuable insights into the individual's spinal health and alignment, allowing for tailored exercises that promote strength, flexibility, and overall well-being.

Strong Joints
I strongly believe that our diet shapes our well-being. One of my favorite culinary delights is a nourishing bone and vegetable broth crafted from wholesome plants and animals. Paired with functional training, it's a recipe for joint health. In this snapshot, I'm pushing my limits, dashing downhill like a mountain goat (not recommended for home experiments).
The Lunge
The lunge is an effective stretch for targeting the hip flexors.
Qi-Gong
Often, Qi Gong is a more advisable choice than a traditional workout. Qi Gong is like depositing energy into your 'health bank'.
Unstable Surfaces
Training on unstable surfaces is an excellent method to reawaken the nervous system throughout the entire body, especially areas that typically receive less focus in a conventional lifestyle.
AgamChi
"Agam" indeed has meanings related to "far extending" in Sanskrit, and "Chi" refers to the life force originating from Chinese philosophy. These terms carry rich cultural and philosophical significance.
Anatomy
Much of today's health and medical knowledge remains predominantly rooted in male anatomy, emphasizing the importance of comprehending the profound differences between female and male anatomy for the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle. Hadi is trained in holistic health and performance for women, further highlighting the significance of tailored approaches to women's well-being.
Herniated Disc
The image displays a herniated disc in the cervical spine.
In my 2020 cervical spine image, the disc pushes deep into the spinal canal, affecting nerves that extend into the upper back, chest, and upper limbs. This can create a searing, electric-like pain radiating from the spine to the neck, arms, shoulders, and head, often forming sensitive "trigger points" along nerve pathways. This condition can contribute to sleeplessness and depression due to the persistent discomfort and disruption it causes.
