On Wednesday, I talked about my brother and his back pain from just leaning over, and hoped that was the end of it.
That same day, I called him and asked him why he wasn’t at the mountain snowboarding.
“My back is still a little sore, so I decided to stay home and take care of it here,” he said.
I of course asked, “Well, what did you do?”
He replied, “Well, I did a 10 minute cold plunge, deep breathing, hot tub, went for a run, but now I want to lift weights and I think that might hurt my back so I am hesitant.”
I said (again, as you will recall I asked him about this last time we talked), “Did you warm up before your run?”
“Yes,” he said, “I did a couple stretches for 30 seconds or so.”
**sigh** *More about the stretching part on Monday.*
I said, “Did you do anything for your glutes? What are you hesitant about doing?”
So I talked him through various exercises, and he sent me the 30 second video above with his results.
This isn’t just a story about my brother- it applies to everyone!
Happy FriYAY!
-AND-
Thank you so much for all of your responses.
I can’t tell you how excited I am for this group training project to almost be complete.
It has been a long road, but I am excited to see how it goes.
Hope you have a great weekend!
Here’s to balance, strength training and happiness!
🙂 Laura
