National old headshot week. Me from what seems a 100 years ago! We don't appreciate how we looked when we were young until we are older. . . . . .

Modified side plank exercise

Modified side plank exercise. This is an easier version of the plank. This is a good alternative plank strengthening exercise, especially after a knee injury as there is no pressure or strain on the knees holding in this position when the core or glutes and hamstrings are still weak. . . . . . with thanks to @theliftingphysio

Pilates hover exercise

Pilates hover exercise. This exercise can be the precurser to a plank. It engages the glutes, core, and deep abdominals. The back has to be straight and the head aligned. It's harder than it looks to keep the back in line and shoulders down and not curve the back upwards when raising and holding the hover position. . . . . . with thanks to @theliftingphysio @bh_beyondhealth

2nd exercise following on from hip flexor stretch using the foam roller

2nd exercise following on from hip flexor stretch using the foam roller. Basic table top toe taps to engage the core, glutes and lower abdominals. Using the foam roller in this position can help stop the hip flexors coming into action too when the core is still weak. . . . . .

Good morning Monday

Good morning Monday. Body positive. Look in the mirror and love all of what you see. The best bits and those bits you dont like so much. No one's perfect. Don't believe everything you see on others' social media. Be the best version of yourself you can be.

Back to the pilates reformer this week

Back to the pilates reformer this week. Great for keeping the body mobile and for strong core and glutes. With core strength the back is supported and the knees will have less issues with tracking or injuries.
