Pain free is good! You're adapting well, Judy. I hope you  get to that point soon! There are so many ways to adapt. Props are great, and there are so many variations on stretches and yoga, that you will probably find ways to do this without loading the wrist. Good luck!!!

 

So right!!! After my wrist break which since I can't do yoga has led to severe knee issues.. I just want to be able to move pain free.. the more I workout the more easy it is to move pain free.. (plus i do drop weight~)... anyeay.. hoping that I can get to fit place myself where I can run.. cycling is great and yoga is getting there with props!

I just feel like I need to verbalize this. A few days ago I realized that as I grow older, I don't want to keep talking about weight or size. I just don't want this to be a focus ever again. It makes me nuts and leads to unnecessary worries.

10 years ago, I would have KILLED to be able to do what I do now, or to wear my current size, or to have these well established healthier habits. I could barely even visualize those things back then. If somebody had told me, that at age 50, I'd be riding 50k and 100k rides, running and attempting headstands, I would have told them they were nuts. I was just thrilled to be able to do a Firm workout 3x/wk without getting sick or having my back fail.

I usually feel ridiculously healthy and strong. I wake up so happy. My weight and size have been stable for a few years. Am I going to continue to make myself nuts by always trying to lean out more? I don't want to. My body fights it (menopause).

I'll be focusing on pure function: strength, mobility, joint integrity, and excellent health-promoting nutrition. I will be focusing on joy. You wont hear me discussing weight or size ever again. I'll be talking about fun.

Happy workouts, everyone!

I am chilling out and taking a well earned rest day.

Be safe Judy!!!!! That's one big, scary storm.I think you'll love this. I just ordered the one on hip openers. I already have:The Key Poses of YogaThe Key Muscles of Yoga

They work beautifully as a set. The Key Poses of Yoga is stunningly beautiful. It shows the muscles in action. You can see the synergists and agonists clearly. He gives the step-by-step for moving into the pose by telling you the anatomy of the move. If you can only have one, start with this one. If you are struggling with a stretch, you can check the book and visualize the source of the problem.

The Key Muscles of Yoga describes the origin and insertion of each muscle, and which movements are generated. Again, a super gorgeous book. I curl up with these books at the end of the day. I hope to own every volume. I'm buying one per month.

I'll be focusing on pure function: strength, mobility, joint integrity, and excellent health-promoting nutrition. I will be focusing on joy. You wont hear me discussing weight or size ever again. I'll be talking about fun.

Happy workouts, everyone!

I am chilling out and taking a well earned rest day.

Thank you so much, !!

Revelation- A change of focus

I just feel like I need to verbalize this. A few days ago I realized that as I grow older, I don't want to keep talking about weight or size. I just don't want this to be a focus ever again. It makes me nuts and leads to unnecessary worries.10 years ago, I would have KILLED to be able to do what I do now, or to wear my current size, or to have these well established healthier habits. I could barely even visualize those things back then. If somebody had told me, that at age 50, I'd be riding 50k and 100k rides, running and attempting headstands, I would have told them they were nuts. I was just thrilled to be able to do a Firm workout 3x/wk without getting sick or having my back fail.I usually feel ridiculously healthy and strong. I wake up so happy. My weight and size have been stable for a few years. Am I going to continue to make myself nuts by always trying to lean out more? I don't want to. My body fights it (menopause). I'll be focusing on pure function: strength, mobility, joint integrity, and excellent health-promoting nutrition. I will be focusing on joy. You wont hear me discussing weight or size ever again. I'll be talking about fun.Happy workouts, everyone! I am chilling out and taking a well earned rest day.
