Here's the recording from yesterday's session. Reasonably easy going 45ish min session. (easy going depending on your strengths 😅) You'll want a cushion or block for the chest opener. https://us02web.zoom.us/rec/share/mb4ZKDmBHLqTEpMPZ81LUrd_iXviNh3vmU-hG_nD5KPbc7bwhz2Au4BmVgODbnrr.owy4vzrNHzpJBVCw Passcode: 49=bJ?%% Enjoy 🎅

The crazy part is, I've blown what I said here out of the water. I made this video when I first launched, I'd had incredible progress with my back pain, was back at rugby, lifting weights etc. I'd left my 14 year career to become a self employed instructor helping people overcome back pain and much more. A massive risk for many reasons, not least that my other half had left her job at a BIG pay cut as we were planning to have a baby, AND we had just basically doubled our mortgage. All at once. And even with all that I knew it was worth the risk. The madness is that the results I speak about in that video, which I filmed when I was around 34 in May 2020 (another major factor, Covid lockdown after 7 months self employed) - the madness, is that those results are old news. Now at 40 I lift way heavier, my mobility is better, and I have less pain than ever. Please let this give you hope that, if you are struggling with back issues or anything else, you can absolutely improve your situation 💪 Here to help if you need anything!

I hope you've had a great one 😊

Hi Russ, I hope your well? Have you any idea how I can start to jump rope again without risk of major injury ect. It's something I used to do and I enjoy but would need to tread carefully I guess and warm up? Cheers.

Other than ticking over in here for the last couple of months, running this free group has taken a bit of a back seat if I'm honest. And doesn't it show! Like a ghost town in here 👻 So I'm going to get back in to the groove of showing up regularly - not with all the answers, as I don't have them, but hopefully to grow this community and boost the support, engagement, and results people get from being here. What is your number one struggle right now and what do you think might help? let us know in the comments what's going on, what you think you may need to do to make progress - and lets make a plan for you to get some success. Everything worthwhile takes time. It was 9 months of Pilates before I started lifting weights properly again, and a year before I picked up the rugby ball. Dabbling for a few weeks and bailing out is not going to get you results. A progressive plan while assessing and improving your overall lifestyle habits will make for huge change. Most people know what they need to do really, it's just doing it. No one is going to save you, other than you 🫵 So let's go!
