Flexy Friday - Standing Quad Stretch


Best demonstrated by someone other than me ... my flexibility is still a work in progress! Anyways, here we go with a stretch for your quads! Here's the Standing Quad Stretch - you can do this anywhere - in the office, at the gym, or out on the trail before a run. Hold 30 seconds per stretch and repeat 3-5 times with each leg.
  • Stand upright and bend one leg back, grabbing the top of that foot.
  • Bring your foot as close to your butt as possible while keeping your bent knee inline with your other knee.
  • Push your hips forward for a deepened stretch.
  • Hold onto a wall for balance if needed and repeat on the other leg.
Got questions? DM me for more!

New Year - Same You

  It's time for my New Year's Resolution Rant - buckle up - truth is what trainers and coaches deliver! I'm not posting a whole "New Year - New You" series - or checking in on Resolutions. I'm not diminishing having goals - in fact - goals are critical - and they have to be backed up with NEW Actions. The hard truth is - you are the same person today that you were on Friday. January 1st was in fact just a Saturday. Nothing happened with the arrival 2022 that magically transformed your nutrition, weight loss, smoking, exercise, or relationship patterns. So while the beginning of a new calendar year provides and opportunity to reflect on the year that is completing, examining what worked and didn't work, and creating goals for the year that lies ahead, all of that work will fall flat if you haven't created NEW ACTIONS to take to fulfil on your goals. NEW actions refer to things you haven't done before - to generate results you haven't genera...
