A recent Globe and Mail article says women aren’t the “weaker” s*x — they never were. We’re here for it. 💥

It argues that strength has been defined way too narrowly — and when you expand that definition to include resilience, endurance, adaptability, and the ability to recover from stress… women come out looking like the superheros they are. 🦸‍♀️

Longevity. Stronger immune responses. Incredible stress tolerance. These aren’t soft traits — they’re powerful biological advantages that have been overlooked for far too long.

At Restore & Rebalance, we see this every single day in the women we work with. Strong looks like a lot of things. 💙

Save this post to share with the women in your life who need to hear it. 👇

The position of your pelvis matters.

- If your p***c bone is more oriented toward the floor you’ll get more glute max and glute med posterior fibers,
- If your p***c bone is more oriented toward the ceiling you’ll get more glute med anterior fibers,
- If your bottom waist is more lifted away from the reformer you’ll get more glute max and glute med posterior fibers,
- If your bottom waist is on the reformer you’ll get more glute med anterior fibers and adductor

The next time you are using the jump board in your pilates class take a second to think about how you are using your pelvis. Is it doing what you want it to do and achieve your goal? Choose wisely.
