Ju when I blow it up even just a tad, it expands too quickly and looks very stretched out, almost like the rubber has lost its firmness.

Actually this is helpful! My ball wont stay behind my leg anymore and yesterday during Firey abs it kept flinging out from behind my back, which has never happened before. It’s gotta be a grip issue.

This is more of an IRL longevity question, but how do we know when it’s time to replace our movement ball? After 5 years of working with it weekly (❗️), it’s finally losing its shape.

Totally understand if this question needs to be skipped 😆

Lindsey! How did I forget this! Thanks for being so awesome and reminding me 🫶🫶

I fourth the neck, shoulders, and back opener class. We have an m<20 for it that I go to often, but more of that is always helpful, especially as we start lifting heavier!

And, is there a routine we could do that helps make progress in strattle stretch and the splits? I’m curious if anyone else is struggling to make and interested in persuing more progress in opening the groin and hips with these stretches. That might be a bit too specific, but just a thought.

Second this 3000000%

Lindsey.. it's so interesting how we can all find ourselves on the same journey despite different circumstances. Grateful for you sharing this and I second the toast. Keep listening, keep showing up, keep being you, sweet friend. 

All the love to you Caroline!

Appreciate a more restful approach. It reminds me of the Bruce Lee quote "You do not find inner peace. You choose it.."

Oh man, this is a tough one. I have chronic knee discomfort due to knock knees, and I will say that this work does help heal and strengthen. The best guess I have is any of the floor abs, where you are strengthening your core, which includes your hips, without added weight on the knee or standing. Following your own idea where you might strengthen that hip flexor as an experiment, since that seems like a safe place to start!
