  • Did you know that 95% of people do not get the recommended 30 minutes of physical activity daily? This means that this percentage of people are not only neglecting their physical health, but they are also neglecting their mental well being.
    In this TEDx Talk, Mike Stanlaw goes into the benefits of re-framing and re-thinking exercise as self-care, which is the primary way we need to view fitness. By taking care of ourselves, we will be better for ourselves and for all of those around us.
    Mike Stanlaw is the Owner of Stanlaw Fitness in Bayonne, New Jersey and has been a Personal Trainer since 2008. His motto "Get Your 30" has helped people achieve 30 minutes or more of physical activity every single day to reach their health and fitness goals.
    Mike has his Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and Master's Degree in Social Work, which he combines with his Personal Training Certifications to help people get the greatest mental and physical benefits out of exercise. He loves competitive bodybuilding, and lives in Bayonne with his amazing wife Laura. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    Underrated talk. Get Your Thirty. Every. Single. Day. Self care.

    Getting my thirty is my motto now thank you. I've been almost 3months consistent next week. It's my lifestyle now, I stopped weighting myself. I feel better and that's all that matters. I'm a better wife, mother, friend, daughter and neighbor.

    Love this talk and the positive emotion that the speaker conveys! I would say you need a box of self care tools (and adapt to what brings you joy): listening to music, singing, dance, yoga, yoga nidra, meditation, body scans, all type of sports that you enjoy, journaling, forest bathing, hiking and so much more. Everything that brings you from your head into your body and/or connects you spiritually. At least 30 min per day.

    • @stanlawfitness827

      Thank you so much! A box of self care tools is an awesome idea. The mind and body connection is everything and you nailed it when you said "connecting you spiritually". I appreciate the feedback !

    I agree with his speech self care in many ways is very important :)
    I don't know who needs to hear this though but, it's ok to feel down sometimes, it's ok if you don't feel good today. Not every day has to be an amazing motivated day- life is a bumpy ride!

    • @stanlawfitness827

    Mike is one of the or the only trainer, I met who walks the talk and very focused on goals of his clients. He is very meticulous and makes sure your progress is consistently monitored and keeps record of the activities to the last detail. He is very respectful and personal to the point, I make sure I never miss a session with him and want, to be around him, so that I feel motivated and be on track to achieve my personal fitness goals. Keep up the good work Mike. I really appreciate your commitment towards your clients.
