Muscles may not be the only culprit of your not participating in the things you love to do that involve movement, but they are an impactful biomechanical tool that can be maximized with great results and certainly need to be eliminated as a possibility. Helping you work toward a stronger, healthier you, is the best part of my job.
“Focus on the things you CAN do… not on the things you can’t.”
Tried snowboarding yesterday thinking that the stiffness and stability in the snowboard boot would mimic the actual boot that I’ve been wearing to heal the 3 torn muscles in my feet.
It’s been 8 long weeks and I’m not out of the woods yet, but I desperately needed mountain time and forest time and my time in nature to keep my spirits up & stress levels down.
I had no idea how much I relied on that until it was taken away from me.
This was midweek so I worked on the way up to the mountain, at lunchtime, and just before we got in the car to drive home.
That’s the beauty of this ability to work anywhere anytime!
More than that, we had a young man along with us who was trying out snowboarding for the second time ever.
On our first run, we stopped about a third of the way down to check in to see how he was doing.
He let out a whoop of joy 🥹 that still makes me laugh when I think about the sheer amount of happiness I got to hear in his voice!
Check out his ear-to-ear grin( at end of video!) - it’s infectious!
My heart is filled back up, thanks to Mother Nature, Mt. Hood Meadows, and Jack Frost. Grateful for the snow, trees, sunshine, and flurries that were all a part of yesterday.

Ooooh that rainbow back, anyone? This is a perfect example of using your back to lean over and not hinging at your hips to lean over.
This particular person I snapped off the TV watching Wimbledon last night.
He should take those tennis balls and put them in the middle of that rainbow!
Have you looked at yourself from the side?

Sideways or lateral or monster walking is so fantastic for those glutes or bun-buns.
I see a ton of people who use a mini band to add some additional resistance to make it harder.
Great!
However, don’t lose the focus of the glutes which can happen when you also break down into a squat.
Those bossy quads might take over and not let the glutes work as much as they could …if that’s your focus.
The other thing I see happen a lot is just the outside of the hips light up; the work doesn’t wrap around to the back of the hip where your back pocket is.
That’s where the actual muscle is - and your target 🎯area.
Do you like to go sideways? Do you like the additional bands?

Stretches in bed to prime your body for movement- from the brilliant Kimberly Berg's Portland Rock Steady Boxing!
I’ve been asked many times to put together a sequence of exercises that you can do in bed before getting up in the morning. Getting your body primed for movement will make it easier to get around the rest of the day. Even more importantly, it could prevent an accidental fall when you stand up or start to walk. Click below to see Part One of my bed stretches series, starting with the head and eyes:
