Crows are for kindness. I read a story about a cr Crows are for kindness. I read a story about a crow that broke her beak 8 years ago, and that her mate has been feeding her ever since. This got me reading more about crows, and I came across numerous similar stories of crows showing care for their friends, and other animals (and people). I’m not sure if we normally think of the crow as being a friendly animal, but it’s worth considering. 📸 @carololiva_photography 📸 @ichieh522
Don’t forget these 2 stretches for your wrists! Don’t forget these 2 stretches for your wrists! While many of us will do the standard flexion/extension of the wrists, you can get a huge return from including Supination & Pronation. For both stretches, keep the elbow locked into your body so you don’t compensate by moving the entire arm. We want to isolate the movement in the forearm/wrists the best we can: 1. Activate the Supinators 10x, adding a little assist at the end range. You can remember “supinate” because you turn the hand as though holding soup. Get it? Supinate = soup #anatomyjoke
 2. Activate the Pronators 10x, assisting at end range. I don’t really have a pneumonic for pronate, other than your turning hand to the prone position. If you have any other anatomy jokes or a pneumonic device for pronate, hit me up in the comments below. + Live Class This Sunday!

This is like a baby cobra pose (so cute)🐍 🟩 After sufficient priming, you can begin “pulling” with the arms to initiate the upward dog. 🟩 Firm the legs so the knees lift from the floor. 🟩 Stick the feet to the mat, imagine creating traction in the spine. Give this a try and let me know how it works!

Improve your shoulder mobility by keeping the fron Improve your shoulder mobility by keeping the front ribs down. When raising the arms over head, most of us inadvertently lift the front ribs and arch the back. This position limits the full range of shoulder and creates a kink in the spine. 1. Use one hand to “pull the front ribs down” while moving the opposite hand overhead. Notice the increase stretch that you feel. 10x each side.
 2. Now that you’ve primed the movement, try raising the arms as in the first movement of the sun salutation. Notice when the back arches. Perhaps you have to open the hands a bit to maintain position? *Add a small weight to challenge the position. **Maintain the body line when practicing dog pose or handstand. ***Practice with me LIVE THIS SUNDAY (Link In bio)

Sometimes in life, you have to “go with the flow Sometimes in life, you have to “go with the flow” and sometimes you have to “go against the grain.” These cliches are also true in your yoga & mobility practice. Here’s how to utilize AIS* and PNF* during a spine twist: 1. The first clip demonstrates the go with the flow principle. Here the focus is activating the muscles that rotate the trunk, the twisting muscles. Active Isolated Twist, 10x
 2. In the next clip, we add resistance at the end range. The cue here is “resist the twist,” focus on building strength and gradually increasing the end range. Contract/Relax 3x Want to learn more?

Everyone should have a Voodoo band in their toolki Everyone should have a Voodoo band in their toolkit. Here’s a voodoo floss technique for the knee: 1. Wrap the band around the knee, creating 3/4 overlap each time. Pull the band a little tighter each wrap, but allow yourself room to move. Don’t go crazy, especially if you are new to voodoo. 2. Add movement. Here, I’m adding a heavy band to add extra stimulus during my box squats. Do between 10-20 of these, focusing on improving your technique with each rep. 3. After a few minutes, release the voodoo band. Move around and notice how it feels. Better? * Pro-Tip: Not all bands were created equal. I’ve noticed that some bands have a plastic feel, and slide around. Those suck. I recommend the original voodoo band that you can find through the thereadystate.com @thereadystate website or rougefitness.com @roguefitness
