One side of your body might not align with the other side. Or, one hip could be looser than the other. Training can help with these problems.
It is important for your body to be in muscular balance to prevent injuries and to help you perform better. For example, the frontside of your body should not be significantly stronger than your backside. And, your quadriceps should not be significantly stronger than your hamstrings.
Four effective ways to keep your body in muscular balance are:
1. Full body strength, power and speed training,
2. One-legged and One-armed strength, power and speed training exercises,
3. Doing exercises in all 3 planes of motion and
4. Keeping all areas of the body flexible.
Training with bodyweight and dumbbell exercises force each side of your body to do its share of the work. And, you see right away if a side of your body is weaker than the other. Some of the best exercises for this are:
--Step ups
--Lunges
--Single leg squats, deadlifts and good mornings
--Single leg/arm cable exercises
--Pushups
--Two-armed and one-armed dumbbell presses and rows
--Single leg arm and leg curls
--Medicine ball exercises working all sides of the body

Houston....in addition to working out at the end of the day, you need to take walking breaks about every hour....if possible, work standing at your laptop...this will keep your fat burning enzymes active. Also, walk during regular work breaks and at lunch...thanks for the visit!
