Most people don’t realize they’re losing strength, balance, and mobility until everyday things start feeling harder. It could be things like getting up from the floor, walking upstairs without using the railing, standing on one leg while putting on shoes or turning quickly without feeling a bit unstable... We tend to call this 'ageing', but it’s often a mix of not enough movement, not enough strength training and, of course, not giving your body what it needs to maintain muscle and move well. Muscle doesn’t just disappear with time. It disappears when we don’t use it (use it or lose it, remember?!) … and when we don’t support it (protein being a big one). The same thing is true for stiffness. It's not just “tight muscles”, it can also be linked to recovery, inflammation, hydration, and how we fuel the body. A simple self-check: 1. Stand on one leg for 30 seconds (no support) 2. Sit down and get up from the floor without using your hands 3. Bend forward and try to touch your toes without bending your knees Give them a try! If one felt harder than expected, that’s not a failure, it’s feedback...Your body is asking for a bit more support (movement, strength, working on your balance… and better fuel). I'm curious to read how did it go in the comments!👇

I have been absent this week due to family commitments and we got a new puppy last weekend. Life’s been crazy.🤪 I have been working on my food choices though. Some not so great but I’m not hard on myself. One constant is the container of Kefir in the fridge. I am the only one drinking it, so every time I get a bit of the urge to splurge, I take a gulp of Kefir straight from the bottle! 🤭
