Star your journey in the Classroom by watching the entire first module (takes about 15 minutes) here, and finish it by presenting yourself to the community (if you haven't already, because I know some of you already did), so that we can know each other and star making REAL connections!

Hi, welcome to the "Fitness for Musicians" Skool group! 🎶 This is an engaged community of professional musicians from different areas who all want to live a long, healthy music career by being physically active! 🏃 We’re growing fast, and I couldn’t be more excited to have more musicians on this journey to better health and, therefore, peak music performance! 🙌 Here’s how to get started in just 3 steps: ✅ STEP 1: Watch the "Start Here" Module Go to the Classroom tab and watch the first module here. 🎥 This will walk you through who I am and why I created this community, what you’ll get inside the group, and how this platform works, as well as all the rules. ✅ STEP 2: Introduce Yourself & Unlock a Gift Let’s get to know each other! Write a brief introductory post in the Community tab sharing who you are, where are you from, what’s your instrument, what are your goals, and so on. 🎯 To help you take action and save you some time, I’ve prepared a template so that you only need to copy and paste, filling in with your personal information. You can find it in the description of this lesson inside the Classroom. And there is a big incentive for you to do this, because everyone who makes their intro post unlocks a FREE 30-minute 1:1 CALL WITH ME! 🎁 This way we get to meet each other and create a more meaningful connection, so that I can better help you apply all the knowledge you’ll find here, for a successful fitness journey as a musician. 🤝 ✅ STEP 3: Start Working Out! More than acquiring knowledge, I want you to break from physical inactivity and start moving. That’s why I’ve created the 21-Day Mini Workout Challenge, designed for musicians who want to: 🏋️ Get started working out but don’t know how

Wait... WHAAAT?!🤩🥹 200 members is such a huge milestone! I still remember when I created this community, about 1 year ago, how it felt to reach the first 10 members, or the joy of reaching 100 members, in February. To be now at 200 members feels absolutely insane, I'm so proud of what we've built!🤗 Now, there's one thing we can do better, for sure. Which is to actually engage in the community!! That means commenting, posting, liking, and voting on pools. That's the way we can actually help each other and evolve, together! As an incentive, I'm attaching the community's current ranking in the Health category. Let's get it to the top 1000 by the end of the month?👀 If we make it happen, I'll prepare something very special for everyone, so let's do it! Star by liking this post and leave a comment. You don't even need to write, just a GIF goes a long way...! Let's do it. Talk soon, Manuel

I hope everyone is having a good time! My birthday is happening in a couple days, so I'll be turning off for a bit and no call this Monday. See you all very soon, fresh and ready for the start of a new year! 💪😀

Hello everyone, Since this forum is about fitness for Musicians, I would like to kick off the weekend and share some thoughts about my on-going training and how that affects my playing. Since 28 August, I have lost 15 kg due to a decision of a life change. As for today, I'm no longer a 3-digit sized trumpeter :D However, since then, my upper register and air has been trolling big time. I do not feel that I have the same support anymore and some of my habits have to change due to the absence of the huge belly and so on. I do not look upon this as any negative, but it still raises a lot of questions on the best way ahead. Have others done something similar? Have the loss of weight challenged your ability to play as before and did you at some point have to change anything?
