Your nervous system doesn't know the difference between a big movement and a small one.
It does register whether the movement is controlled, coordinated, and safe.
This is why we start on the floor in Foundation Reset.
Not because it's easy — because it's where your nervous system learns best as you feel safe. The movements can be small, deliberate, unhurried.

The people who progress fastest aren't the ones who push hardest.
They're often the ones who pay the most attention.
Sometimes it's surprising what you notice.

Once we notice and pay attention we can then adjust and make the small changes.
To create big impact.

We've been travelling for a few months now and nothing has reminded us more of this clinical truth than sleeping on other people's mattresses.

A bad sleep setup doesn't just affect your sleep. It affects how your spine loads for the first few hours of every morning — which affects everything else.

Here's what we look for when assessing a bed setup:

The mattress:
* Should support your spine in a neutral position — not let your hips sink too deep and not push them up
* This changes, dependant on body type

The pillow (where most people get it badly wrong, plus cheapest to fix!)
* Your pillow height should fill the gap between your shoulder and your neck when you're on your side — no more, no less
*It should support the NECK NOT THE HEAD
* Side sleepers need a thicker pillow than back sleepers
* Stomach sleeping puts your neck into rotation for hours — if you can avoid it, do.

The mattress to pillow ratio:
* A firmer mattress means your shoulder doesn't sink in — so you need a thicker pillow to fill the gap
* A softer mattress means your shoulder sinks further — so you may need a thinner pillow
*Body types again - wide shoudlers/narrow etc.
One of the simplest clinical interventions we make is changing someone's pillow height. The difference it makes is often immediate.

Your bed is where your body recovers. It's worth getting right.

Is your setup right for you??

My birthday present to myself this year wasn't something I bought.
It was 100 skips a day for 30 days. Simple and free!
Also, as it is so hot here, I barely walk any distance in the day.. so I think I needed a boost of cardio.
It was a little bit painful to begin with (when the hard plastic rope nails your toes). But I have improved now and can do the 100 skips without fault.
It almost feels easy now.. So sometimes I also add it in to my workouts, 100 here and there. I had a day I ended u doing 900! I also had a day I forgot. I remind myself it doesn't need to be perfect and kept going.

Think I might continue this gifting for my birthday each year. Or maybe each month, set a new challenge!
Any other simple ideas?

A simple way to work hamstring/ hip flexor length and strength. While challenging pelvic stabilisers with the single leg stance

For all our movement, in the programs and in our lives, we use the lens of DNS — Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation out of the Prague school of Rehabilitation
It’s based on how we all learned to move as babies.
Turns out we knew exactly what we were doing back then. 😄

Strong at 60.
Mobile at 70.
Still doing the things you love at 80.

This is what we’re building toward — and it starts with how you move today.

Too good not to share 🤣

The final in the series we hope you’ve enjoyed them and saved for later! ⏰

Shoulder mobility 5

in the bad position we start to load the shoulder joint strong way trying to keep stability in the trunk as we challenge the position by lifting off each limb.
Hard work!
We also explore rocking forwards and backwards, which is similar to shoulder mobility 1 just with more loading of the shoulder.

Tell me which limb was harder to pull off the floor, the legs or the arms??

🌟shoulder mobility 4 🌟
In this mobility sequence, we begin to work the triceps as well as still working on stability and control.

To increase the load we shift the body weight forwards, to decrease the load we shift the weight backwards into the lower body.

Save for later 💙

🌟Shoulder mobility 3 🌟

We start to activate the shoulder muscle more strongly, first in a controlled central position.
In the second lift we add muscle activation in a more lengthened or stretched position.

Save for later 💙
