From “solid enough” to “I want to do more!,” where do you fit on the core strength continuum?

Quite possibly my proudest accomplishment in my entire life to date.

Travelling is definitely a thing again! For whatever reason, you may be making the best of a small space without any equipment. Fear not, here are options.

I appreciate so much how you helped me yesterday.

You’re making it make sense to me in a way that none of this ever has before. It’s like a revelation. I’ve literally, like, my whole life… I’ve been in dance class; I’ve been in yoga class; I’ve been in Pilates. Everyone’s said, "Move your shoulder blades down your spine," and I’m, like…"huh?"

Now I feel like I have shoulder blades that I control. I’m really starting to feel the difference. That greater stability is wonderful.

Getting better balance and stability...It’s priceless! In my whole life, and everything I do. This is great.

Well, I think I owe you an apology. I really didn’t think a week of exercises would do anything, but even after three-four days I skied both Saturday (backcountry) and Sunday (cross-country), and felt way less pain than I would have expected. Then again, it was also really soft forgiving snow on the weekend, so I reserved judgement. Today, I just got back from a 1hr15min ski up at Cypress with essentially no pain at all. Even skating for some stretches. Maybe a bit of muscle tiredness on the shin muscle, but none of the sharp pain either there or in the lower calf/achilles area. So you are a veritable magician, and thank you!!
