If you have a sit down job, if there is consistent stress on your lower back, if you have any Sciatica issues going on then foam rolling your Glutes(butt muscles) can be very beneficial. A foam roller is usually around $20 and can be purchased at a variety of sports stores or even places like Walmart and Target.

Foam Rolling your Glutes will do a few things: help wake up your glutes and also calm down the Piriformis muscle, which could be the culprit of your Sciatica. Foam rolling helps send signals to the muscle to wake them up. It helps provide more nerve impulses to the area, create better blood flow and oxygen flow to the area. So, if you sit down on your butt all day then your glutes are turned off, which puts stress on your low back. If you foam roll your glutes to wake them up then they will be turned on and help support your lower back.

Foam rolling your Glutes can also help calm down that pesky little Piriformis muscle. The Piriformis muscle lays side ways under your Glute Max(butt) and it will get tight from sitting or trying to do the work that the glutes are not doing. It tries to help the glutes out and it gets overworked and tired. When it gets overworked then it gets tight. Your Sciatic Nerve lays just underneath your Piriformis. So, when your Piriformis gets tight then it puts pressure on the Sciatic Nerve, which can create Sciatica like issues.

If you're struggling with Sciatica, chronic lower back pain, or just want to prevent those things from happening then try foam rolling your Glutes!

If you want to know how long someone is going to live then just look at their muscle mass.

Your longevity is linked to your muscle mass

One of the most underutilized pieces of golf training is the hip internal rotators. The hip has to internally rotate as the upper body rotates back and away. Without this rotation of the hip the body will compensate, put your club head in the wrong position and alter the swing coming through to hit the ball. Rich has gained a better rotation, has his club head in the right spot, and is hitting the ball better and further because of his strength and mobility of his hip internal rotators

Congrats to Michelle Sherry for being Member of the Month for Honey Creek!

Michelle grew up in Wardsville and still lives there with her husband, Ryan and two girls: Harper (16) and Sloane (13). Michelle is a Physical Therapist at Outbound Physical Therapy(East Clinic). In her free time, she likes to watch her girls play softball and coach them as well, and when she is watching/coaching softball she liked going to concerts. To Michelle, fitness means to keep moving. Movement is medicine in her line of work and she has to practice what she preaches to her patients. She wants to be able to continue to help her girls with their softball activities, catch for them when they pitch, and set an example for them regarding activity when they get older.

Here is what Michelle has to say about Ignite: "I love the focus on form and function that the workouts at Ignite provide. Everyone in the Ignite community is supportive and welcoming and makes you feel like you are part of a family!"
