How to Get Back into Exercise After Being Sedentary: Personalized Guidance from Studio Evolve
It’s been a few years since the pandemic drastically changed our daily routines. Many of us went from being relatively active to spending more time seated at home. Whether you had a consistent fitness routine before or have always found it difficult to stay active, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when trying to get back into exercise after a long period of inactivity.
At Studio Evolve in Wallingford, Seattle, we understand how tough it can be to jump back into a movement routine after being sedentary, but the good news is: it’s never too late to start. If you’ve found yourself feeling sluggish, stiff, or even in pain from inactivity, it’s time to get moving again—and we’re here to help you every step of the way.
Why It’s Time to Start Moving Again
If you’ve been sedentary, you’re probably noticing that it’s harder to feel comfortable day to day. Perhaps your joints feel stiff, your energy levels have dropped, or you’ve gained a bit of weight. While these are all common outcomes of prolonged inactivity, they don’t have to become your new normal.
Consistent movement is the key to feeling better in your body. It can improve mobility, strength, flexibility, and even mental health, helping you stay healthy and active as you age. By incorporating movement into your routine now, you’ll reduce the risk of long-term health issues, regain your confidence, and start enjoying life more fully.
The Struggles of Starting on Your Own
Maybe you’ve tried to take that first step back into exercise by following YouTube videos or online tutorials. While that’s a great starting point for some, it can quickly feel overwhelming. How do you know if the exercises are safe for you? Are they targeting the areas that need attention? Without personalized guidance, it’s easy to get discouraged or—worse—injure yourself.
Plus, let’s face it—working out alone at home can get boring. Without the energy of a community or the guidance of a professional, it’s hard to stay motivated and consistent. That’s why many people find it challenging to maintain a routine at home.
If you’re feeling unsure about what type of exercise is right for you or are struggling with staying consistent, a more personalized approach might be just what you need.
Personalized Movement at Studio Evolve
At Studio Evolve, we believe that everyone’s body is unique, and your movement practice should reflect that. Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or just trying to improve your overall health, we’re here to help you build a sustainable movement practice tailored to your specific needs and goals.
That’s why we created the Studio Evolve Signature Goals Assessment—a free, one-on-one consultation designed to help you figure out the best path forward.
What is the Studio Evolve Goals Assessment?
Our Goals Assessment is a 100% personalized, no-pressure conversation between you and Martine Dedek, the owner of Studio Evolve. It’s designed to take the guesswork out of starting your movement journey, so you can feel confident and supported from the very first step.
Here’s what you can expect during the consultation:
A Conversation About You: Martine will ask about your health, how you’re feeling in your body, and any injuries or discomforts you may have. This will help determine what type of movement is best for your body.
Tailored Movement Advice: Based on your goals, Martine will recommend exercises that align with your needs, whether it’s Pilates, Gyrotonic, or a combination of both.
Instructor Recommendations: Martine will personally suggest an instructor who fits your personality and movement preferences, ensuring that you click with the teacher and the class.
No Pressure: You’re not committing to anything just by signing up for the Goals Assessment, but you’re taking the first step toward feeling better in your body.
The best part? The Goals Assessment is completely free. It’s our way of making sure that you start on the right path, with the right support.
