Back & forth…

Thank you, MW for teaching me more than I teach you 🫶

Never stops entertaining me that my whole career IRL is based on telling you to slow down, while my whole IG life challenges me to speed everything up to under 15 seconds to get any views. 🤷🏻‍♀️

When you’re tilting in class, focus on energizing your head away from your foot. It will prevent your head from flapping to the side and give you an opportunity to build endurance in the muscles that stabilize your neck.

Maintaining tone throughout your body also helps wake up stabilizing muscles around your scapula, through your trunk, hips and ankles.

That attention to detail in the warmup will pay you back later with more control and balance during more challenging segments like cardio legs and standing abs.

Barre on!

Here’s a simple move that you can do while you’re brushing your teeth that strengthens your legs and core, improves your balance, and helps with your feeties.

If you have to carry a heavy grocery bag and are worried about the downward strain on your shoulder,

Try holding a clutch, wallet or some other small item with your underarm

It helps you center your shoulder joint and engage muscles that will stabilize your torso and shoulder against the load in the bag… while preventing you from tensing your neck.

If your low back is tight and your hip flexors are guarding because you sit all day at work 🪑… try warming up like this before you do your reformer workout. ❤️

🧲 Horseshoe: improves awareness of neutral alignment while stimulating sensory nerves in shoulders & hips, then…

🏊‍♀️ Swimming Prep: challenges balance and require tone without tension as you start to mobilize hip joint into extension. (When back or hips are really guarding, try a gentle beginning by sliding leg out on mat behind you without lifting it into the air), then…

🐈 Cat Stretch: can mobilize spine more easily from this quadriped position, because hips remain flexed. Can focus on diaphragmatic breathing and creating an even flexion throughout spine.
- weight shift adds more coordination and can make the wave motion of the spine feel more like it’s massaging your back muscles from the inside.

🪡 Thread the Needle: improves mobility around scapula and upper back and great way to release the lats. (Another guarding muscle which goes from your shoulder to your lower back)

If you can’t kneel, the can all be done standing in a squat, with the torso hinged forward and hands on the seat of a chair or the reformer carriage.
