Moving strength
Not in the classic sense of the meaning of ‘moving with strength and purpose’, but moving the garden furniture !!
It 7pm and I am doing the some Pilates ground work [roll ups and downs] , and my daughter walks in (always lovely when the kids come home to visit) and asked me to help move a full size ‘pub’ garden table to her house from a location she has purchased it from. After my initial resistance to the ideaIi succumbed to the evening tasks at hand .
Now cut to the chase, the bench is heavy and there is just me and he strapping 6’4” boyfriend, before you ask I am 5’7”. At reaching her house it was obvious that we had to negotiate the narrow foot path with 6foot fences either side to reach the back garden . This entailed flipping this bench upside and then lifting it above our heads and carrying it arm stretched to navigate the bench above the fences in to the garden. Anyway , I have use to many works to explain, that today I feel fit enough to do I it again and have no ill effects from this crazy situation. I have not asked how the boyfriend is fairing ;)
So I am taking this Pilates win and using it to remind myself that prevention is better than a cure and the Pilates will keep me ‘safe’ from life and daughters :) hope you enjoyed my little life story
