POV: that pesky knee replacement won’t give and everything hurts. You “can’t” get flexion even close to 90 degrees and full extension seems unreachable. Then, VOILA. After addressing super-restricted ankles and hips and adding in some missing rotational work, things start to change. Throw in some passive work and retraining your body’s threat response, and suddenly your leg is your friend again. Turns out, you can reach full extension and flexion without pain.

You haven’t been doing it wrong. You’ve just need to do it differently. Sometimes all it takes a creative approach to moving and bringing the feeling of safety back to a functional movement.
If you have tried everything and are still frustrated, shoot us a message to start the conversation about how to heal and move with freedom.

High fives to this client for showing up and putting in some good effort. Excited to see what her future holds. 🙌

Take your kid to work days look a little different when your mom’s occupation is creative fitness.
There may be planks. There may be hula hoops. And there most certainly will be something built out of all the fun gym equipment.

Special thanks to Leo and American 🇺🇸 (ACIPCO) for making this rising 4th grader feel welcome, and for the hilarious hoop lesson. 🙌❤️

To all the parents winging it this week and next, hang in there!😅

Today it’s not about great skin or healthy function. It’s about life. This heat is dangerous. If you love to tough it out and sweat in these hot conditions, great, but do it hydrated!!!

Easy to remember rule of thumb:

YOUR WEIGHT in pounds ➗2 🟰 target ounces on a regular day.

Getting active? Replace your sweat with 20 ounces for each hour of activity.

Salt on the skin? Add water asap and consider electrolytes. This is why sports drinks were invented.

Falling sucks a lot more when you don’t practice. That’s why I spend a lot of time working on the mechanics of falling AND the mental game before, during, and after falls.

If you lose your balance, retropulse, or just generally feel worried that you might fall, please don’t just play it safe and do everything in your power to avoid falling. Instead, find a safe way to learn your body and its tendencies, and get a trainer committed to helping you fall better and stick the landings.

In life, you will fall. The question is, will you have what it takes
1) keep the fall from being catastrophic
2) get back up again?

Meet Cosmo. On occasion he may make an appearance and serve as your emotional support workout buddy. If he thinks your trainer is being too mean, he will intervene. Word on the street is if you give him a biscuit, he will sneak you out of the studio and into He thinks eating snacks and shopping is more fun than banded rows. To each their own.

Some may say he’s 72. I say he’s “seventy too legit to quit.”

High fives to Leo and the ones like him showing us that we can age up. ✨🙌

And remember, age isn’t a death sentence or a command to stop, drop, and disintegrate. Age is the accumulation of time we get to spend.

I get asked “how do you know so much” and “how do you come up with this stuff” a lot. The answer? This.

Want bare arms you feel good about? While you’re working on your strengthening and sculpting, please remember to include your shoulders. Some of the most common injuries come from an arm that was trying to do a task without the help of the shoulder girdle (your shoulders, collarbones, sternum, and shoulder blades) or in a position that limited the shoulder’s ability to help.

6 reps of these movements doesn’t seem all that special, but they could be exactly the thing that keeps you in shape instead of taking you out. Give them a try before your next dumbbell routine, or just because. Oh, and do them tomorrow, too, and the next day, and so on…
Some things are like shampoo: rinse, repeat.
