Keen to learn more UGLY results from my Super Session? Sit back and prepare yourself, I’m about to get even more honest about just how de-conditioned I allowed my body to become, but first I’ll share some observations post session 1.2
If you have an interest in human movement, or have interest to learn just how quickly pain can change? Then this blog instalment is for you. Today I’m writing about my training and my rapidly evolving symptoms.
Sure learning to stand on your own two feet is important, but competency standing on one is too!
Some of you may remember the program I was offering a couple years back: The 8.one.15 Balance Method, launched not long after returning from my second round of mat leave. The program was driven by my, what some would call ‘wearisome’ passion to get people moving, along with a recognition of the astonishing great volume of folk I was finding who were, (to put it nicely) ‘balance challenged’. I found most were quite shocked upon revelation of just how poor their balance had gotten, and also quite motivated to change this.
My journey has commenced, and it began with a HUGE Super Session of testing. In the coming weeks I’m going to share with you some of my less than impressive results,. And what I think is a perfect example to demonstrate the belief that good health is not something your work to ‘attain’ rather something you work to ‘maintain’.
Even the most motivated & experienced gym-goer can lose their way with an exercise program. Routine might well be the key to consistency but it’s almost inevitable that some sort of change will come along to challenge your perfectly manicured daily/weekly regime. Enthusiasm quickly fades into complacency. And heaven forbid a relief in symptoms is experienced, conveniently rooting even the most desperate initial desire to solve your (chronic) problem/pain to the hippocampus and short term memory. Having you question what all the fuss was about and allowing you to return to the comfort of life as it was before you decided you needed to embark on an exercise regime or make a change to it.
I’m embarking on my own “10 week Movement Plan for Action”! And I thought, what better way to demonstrate what it is that I do in the gym to help my clients, than to share my journey with you, warts and all! You can read my first instalment below.
