Pushed myself to 25 mins on the stepper. Time to stretch it all out.
7 Day Challenge 😮 Comment Below 👇
This is a different approach to accountability I'd like to try and see how you guys find it. Mainly as the majority of community are quiet with a few active members. This may be a good way to get things going! I will be putting together a 14 day exercise challenge for you guys soon. But this is slightly different. I want you to choose one single health/fitness/wellbeing action/activity/avoidance of a "negative" activity and I'd like you to make a commitment to that thing for the next 7 days. I CHALLENGE you to make a commitment and go and do (or don't do) that thing. Comment below 👇 I'll post in the group daily for updates- Tomorrow will be challenge day 1. On this thread post your goal. Examples below: 💧 I will drink 2.5litres of water every day 💤 I will go to bed 1 hour early (state time) every day 🧘‍♂️ I will do some Pilates every day 🚶‍♀️ I will build a walk or other exercise in to every day 🍻 I'll lay off the alcohol for 7 days 🍫 I'll have zero junk food this week .I'll be looking for your updates every day! Good luck, can't wait to work through this with you. Please shout with any questions! Russ

Im focusing in on rehab and it seems the stair stepper has been providing great support to my hip discomfort. So my goal this week is work up to 30 mins on the stepper by sat. I can struggle through 20 mins but its a real challenge currently and I wanna get my endurance built up. So 7 days to increase my stamina by 10 mins. M - 23 min goal Tu - Deep stretch W - 26 min goal Th - Deep stretch F - 29 min goal Sa - Deep Stretch Su - 30 min goal

@Russ Walker I think you’re spot on, likely both the hitch movement and glute activation. I’m continuing my Pilates routines as well, just getting some targeted cardio in the mix to get the blood flowing through and continue the healing.

@Jamie-Leigh Gibson Welcome I started last week and I have really enjoyed adding Pilates to my routine. Showing me some areas of weakness and giving me tools to work on them. Sounds like you’re heading in the right direction for you. Enjoy!

@Jamie-Leigh Gibson Oh and for what its worth on energy levels — from mine and my wife’s experience: no matter what activity we have worked through the only significant change to our energy levels came from diet, and it has been a life changing experience. I bet you are doing good things there too, just sharing where we found the issue for us. Not sure what will work for you but we found adding keto and interment fasting changed the whole game. I am now doing intermittent prolonged fasts from 1-5 days and have only seen greater increases in energy levels once returning to normal intake. She hasn't gone that far herself, but she has noticed the changes in me and will doing her first 24hr fast tomorrow.
Workin out the kinks
In just the last few months of exercise I have made significant improvements to my posture. However, in the course of that correction I am now recognizing a pop in my right leg just below my outer glute. I had stay out of the gym hoping some good stretches would help, and to my surprise the popping became more prominent. Last night i decided to hit the gym and do low weight high rep sets to get the blood moving. I started with a warm up on the stepper.. interesting after 3 mins and a good glute burn I noticed the pop was completely gone. After my bum cooled down it returned.. Similarly I have pops in my shoulders when doing arm circles specifically when moving my hands back over my head vs come forward over my head. I haven’t noticed the sessions helping in either of these and was wondering where you’d recommend I go from here. Ill post this inquiry to Chat GPT too and compare suggestions.
The Weekend Is Here!
What are you all planning? Are your goals going to fit in to your weekend plans? This is a weekend of jobs around my house and otherwise keeping active with the little people (2 and 3.5 years old) so some exhausting fun ahead 😅 I'd love to hear from you and please use this post if you need a little help and accountability sticking with your goals at the toughest time (weekends are prime time for falling off the wagon).

Whole weekend: Swim Team Officiate certification and family time. Sat: Pilates, Upper body deep stretch/ Lower body strengthening Sun: Pilates, Lower body deep stretch/ Upper body strengthening Looking for a more in depth breath work course, your breathing instructions during these sessions has really helped, I want to develop a clear sense of what breathing I need for various activities. This week I had played with a breath holding course which got me from 52sec to 2:35 sec in 7 days. Very kool results for mental endurance. Felt like I had a bit more juice for my lifts. Easier to push through muscle discomfort than pushing through the cO2 buildup causing diaphragm contractions while holding your breath! 😅

@Russ Walker thank you! I’ll see if I can find it audio version! Ill check out the app as well, ty. Yes, did the free 9D course this week. It was good but didn’t feel like what I needed. And my youtube searches just felt incomplete. So with my limited knowledge I can still agree I didn’t feel as though I located a source of concrete truth on the matter.
