Fitness has many levels. Do we address them all with each training session? With our entire movement practice? The mainstream fitness industry address many sides of fitness, and at Epic, we’re interested in going even deeper. Let’s briefly look at the Four Faces, or Perspectives, of physical fitness.
First Face of Fitness
We are motivated by feelings, emotions, self image and enthusiasm. Any physical activity we practice serves to bring you enjoyment, emotions, and experiences ranging from brutal or challenging to refreshing and wonderful. Relative to this perspective, why do you exercise?
Second Face of Fitness
We are motivated by the science and story of how our body’s biology, chemistry, function, strength, power, and capacity. We think about muscles, fat, weight, range of motion, and other external factors. Relative to this perspective, why do you exercise?
Third Face of Fitness
We are motivated by the interplay between the body’s systems, or the relationships between, for example, two fighters, members of a team, teams in competition, and so on. The rules of the game, the systems we follow, the protocols we experiment with and results we achieve are all very important. Relative to this perspective, why do you exercise?
Fourth Face of Fitness
We are motivated by the commaraderie of teamwork, the thrill of competition, the shared community of a yoga class. How the relationships feel and the meaning they provide are crucial to us.Relative to this perspective, why do you exercise?
Now that you’ve looked into the faces of fitness and gained a new understanding that there is more to exercise than exercise, what will you do next?

The Epic Workout is concerned with going beyond mainstream exercise so that participants, teachers, trainers, movers and shakers can get more out of exercise. We are currently researching the role movement practices makes in our lives in ways not normally measured by modern science. For more details on how the world’s many movement practices actually make a difference in our lives beyond modifying muscle and fat content, visit the page for the graduate study work by Beth and Alex Iglecia.

The Epic Workout (Alex Iglecia) and Yin Yoga (Beth Iglecia) co-led an exploration in Yogic Warrior Conditioning followed by Yin yoga. Hattie and Karen of the Lululemon Showroom in Park City were our gracious hosts on this cold Friday evening.
The day was a success as we explored a practice focusing this time on strength, movement and letting go. One participant who has attended previous Epic and Yin classes commented that this class was so different than others. Yes, that’s what happens when we look into infinite possibilities!
Want to showcase a class, host a workshop or embark in exploring your own possibilities?

The Wisdom Book
www.wisdombook.org
This project was brought to my attention recently related to the search for truth. This captures simple, elegant and powerful statements and is visually magnificent as well. I encourage you to watch it, and I am sure you will want to see it more than once. Let us what it does for you. Thank you Andrew Zuckerman!
How is this related to exercise, you ask? To fitness? To yoga? To yogic warrior conditioning?
The tie to life is obvious for most of us, I think. In other words, it is easy to get something out of this mentally, even emotionally. What is not as obvious, or at least is often overlooked, is the physical side. What I would point you to is - what is the feeling of tingling, joy energy and excitement you feel when watching this? Perhaps there is just a glimpse, or perhaps it fills you up with a bright optimism.
Don’t worry about the labels of the feelings, just focus on the feelings themselves. What do those sensations point to in your life? What if you were to look for that kind of inspiration and intention in your activities? And your training. By bringing your mind into such a state, what could you not accomplish in your career, your relationships, and your recreations?
Whatever you do this week, do it with wisdom!
