Our Movement Tip: Don’t Be Afraid To Move

FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 44:24 It’s Not All About the Pace

LabLessons from FitLab Deep Creek:

It’s Not All About the Pace.

The Labs make movement part of their lifestyle. They focus on moving rather than on pace, distance, or Strava leaderboards. In fact, the Labs aren’t even ON Strava…in part, because we don’t let them have computer access. Even if you ARE on Strava, it’s ok to enjoy moving at various speeds. Listen to your body. Take time to enjoy the scenery or a slower Sunday sniffy walk.

Move more. Move often. Enjoy your movement, whether fast or slow.

FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 43:24 Fall Fun for 4-Legged Friends

LabLessons from FitLab Deep Creek:

Fall Fun for 4-Legged Friends.

Fall is full of festivities…pumpkin patches, corn mazes, BBQs, craft fairs. Many of these festivities are not pet-friendly (do your research beforehand). Make time in your Fall Fun for activities with your dogs. Take a hike. Play outside. Enjoy the cooler temperatures and Fall foliage. Remember: dogs love Fall too…and they want to spend time with their humans.

Move more. Move often. Include your dogs in your Fall Fun.

FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 42:24 On a Short Leash

Lab Lessons from FitLab Deep Creek:

On a Short Leash.

We now spend more time on single track trails than we do on wider trails (rails-to-trails, paved trails, etc…). The Labs and humans love hiking in the woods. To make sure we all stay safely on the trail, the humans have purchased shorter leashes (3 feet for Abbie and 4 feet for Puddin). The Labs still have space to sniff and explore, but they’re less likely to drag the humans off the trail (or down a hillside).

Move more. Move often. Find a leash that meets your needs.

Our Movement Tips: This week it’s a single tip because it’s Autumn Glory weekend #IYKYK – 3 Pro’s & 1 Big Con of Multi-Use Trails

FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 41:24 Have a Movement Back-Up Plan

LabLessons from FitLab Deep Creek:

Have a Movement Back-Up Plan.

When we learned one of our regular movement locations was hosting a Saturday morning trail race, we COULD have decided to hike there anyway…but that would mean competing for space and disturbing the runners (especially those runners who get nervous around enthusiastic dogs). Because the Labs know it’s not ALL about them and where they want to hike, we chose an alternative hiking spot. Whether you move indoors or outside, it’s a good idea to have a back-up plan for situations when your first choice isn’t available.

Move more. Move often. Be adaptable. Share your favorite places to move.
