How to move better, for longer
Stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints. Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. Then, when you call on the muscles for activity, they are weak and unable to extend all the way. That puts you at risk for joint pain, strains, and muscle damage.
Wear The Shorts!
We've been having LOTS of conversation in the gym about why we don't wear the shorts (the sleeveless top, the dress etc etc.)
Charles Malik said "The fastest way to change society is to mobilize the women of the world". This is your call to action, because any reasons you have not to wear the shorts, someone else is thinking too! These reasons given to you by society, by someone else and it's time to change how we see our bodies, and to normalise normal bodies!
We're not letting this go and have launched a "Wear the Shorts" campaign!
Perfection will SLOW your progress!
Time and again we see people not even start, not try, not even take the first steps towards their goal because they can't do it perfectly, or they can't stand the thought of failing. Learning something new, attempting something new, or working towards a goal just isn't like that. Before you paint the greatest picture first you must paint some pretty mediocre ones, maybe some terrible ones and also some good ones. Otherwise how will you develop the skills required to paint a great picture? Fitness and weight loss is like that too, as indeed is any achievement.
