Body By Tab Fitness Center

A Place Of Strength And Unity

The Ashland Beacon

We hear it from the time we are young children and throughout adulthood: "Take care of your body and mind because, as you get older, you will need them even more."

Unfortunately, not enough attention is paid to the wear and tear that an inactive lifestyle can have on the body until it is too late. Not stretching enough or spending more time on the couch than moving around can be just as detrimental, if not more so, than overusing our bodies and pushing them to the limit each day.

While physically demanding jobs and long hours spent on our feet take their toll, inactivity can be equally damaging. Over time, we begin to stiffen up and experience greater difficulty performing everyday tasks, such as tying our shoes or working for extended periods.

Even during childhood and young adulthood, a lack of physical activity can set off a chain of reactions that eventually limits our abilities and keeps us from doing the things we want to accomplish in life.

Achieving our goals and making sure we can take care of one another requires dedication not only to our work and families but also to ourselves.

Finding the right place to get started on the path to better health can be overwhelming. There are many facilities throughout our area designed to help us stay strong, healthy, and focused.

There is also the question of which exercise routine is right for us. Some may choose to ride bicycles, walk, run, jog, attend yoga or Zumba classes, swim, or even participate in step aerobics at home.

The truth is that all these activities, and many more, can help get us where we need to be.

Strength and core exercises are especially important for maintaining stability as we age. As our bodies grow older, they naturally become slower to recover and require additional attention and care.

Recognizing what our bodies need can sometimes be difficult because we cannot always see the things that others notice.

A professional gym with experienced trainers can be one of the best ways to get moving again after years of inactivity. It can also help athletes prepare for important sporting events and individuals work toward their personal fitness goals.

Trainers can recognize areas that we might overlook. They dedicate their time to helping others maintain healthier lifestyles while providing the encouragement and motivation needed to accomplish things we may have once thought impossible.

Getting started on the right path toward better health and well-being can be as simple as walking into a gym and asking for a little assistance.

BODY BY TAB — BUILDING STRENGTH AND COMMUNITY

Having worked for many years as a personal trainer, Tabatha Prichard has dedicated her life to serving others in our community by helping them become stronger and healthier.

After establishing herself in the personal fitness world as a motivational athlete and trainer, Tabitha decided to open a facility designed to keep people moving while teaching them how to find balance and confidence in their everyday lives.

When asked what inspired her to open her own training facility, Prichard explained that she had simply "outgrown the facility" where she had previously worked.

Moving out on her own has allowed her to expand her reach and serve even more people who are looking to move forward with healthier lifestyles, with community support at the heart of her mission.

Body by Tab Fitness Center is now open and welcoming members at 5850 U.S. Route 60 in Ashland, Kentucky, at Summit Plaza.

With activities and services available throughout the week, Body by Tab Fitness Center offers opportunities for individuals with different fitness levels and goals.
