My attempt at the movement puzzle posted a while ago by @stage6fitness Go see their feed as the original post (currently 7th position) is much better and cuter 😉
.
I'm going to repost their caption below as it says it all 😁
.
Repost caption from @stage6fitness :
“Ground Movement Puzzle 1 - Hip, Ankle + Knee Mobility. This is a favourite little ground movement puzzle that we like to give people to figure out. Plus it doubles as a fantastic hip, knee and ankle mobility drill.
.
Did you know Stage 6 is on YouTube? We’re “Stage 6 Tribe” and you can find lots of little snippets/workouts/technique videos like this one!
.
Ease into this pattern gently and try and move smoothly and with control between the positions (it’s in the journey that the goodness is!) Use your hands for support as necessary, gradually building up to no hands 🙌🏼🙌🏼 We’ve tagged some of our movement friends - feel free to give it a go and tag us in your vids (@stage6fitness )”

How fantastic and inspiring is that video from @movnatmadison ? All the more so because of the wise caption!
.
Repost from @movnatmadison :
“At first glance this may look like a fun way for Mommy to workout with her kiddo. These movements serve a more practical purpose. Practicing these skills ensures mom can evacuate through potentially hazardous environments/situations. This not only ensures her safety but that of her child too. Whether we want to acknowledge it or not, bad things happen. As you reflect on new year's resolutions, think about your "WHY". Ask yourself are you trying so you can be strong to be helpful?
.
If you're ready to start training this way @movnat can get you there.
Thanks @cleanbillhealthcoaching for the demo.

🧠 Strength training in an uncontrolled environment beats the same move in the gym! The surface of support may be thicker, irregular and very rough: all attributes increasing complexity and thus developing adaptability 😁
.
Move: in @movnat / @naturalmovement terms, transition from Double-Hand Front Hang to Double-Hand, Double-Leg-Hook Hang, done for reps, incredible for core and grip strength training 💪🏽

🌳 Weekend vibes, up in a tree… The girls spent quite some time exploring and having fun. .
Without realizing it, they also trained physically and mentally (it is in fact quite high, trust me, I wasn’t the most comfortable when I joined them!) and got some much needed time connected to nature.

😎 One of the benefits kids get from practicing

😎 One of the benefits kids get from practicing @movnat / @naturalmovement is a boost in self confidence resulting from higher than average physical capabilities. This comes both from increased strength, mobility and conditioning as well as learning specific techniques to improve efficiency.⁠
.⁠
Mila (8) here isn't using a particular technique to carry her brother but is fully confident in her ability to carry him a long way, even when discussing with him.⁠
.⁠
They're playing but she also knows she can carry him to safety if she ever faces a serious situation on her own 👍🏼⁠

Great image from @joenimble via @thefootcollective , showing the effect of conventional footwear on the human foot, which is generally hard to grasp in all its severity by most people. We wouldn’t constrain your feet in such a way willingly, yet this is essentially what we are doing when wearing conventional footwear 🧐
.
Modern shoes are designed to fit with social and cultural norms but not biological realities. And the way they restrict foot mobility affects the whole body, with issues appearing at each major joints that are in fact stemming from this restriction.
.
It’s not necessary to ditch all modern shoes all the time, but we need to be conscious that wearing them has a cost and we need to compensate for it in the form of more time spent barefoot and some specific mobility drills. Otherwise, that cost will become a real cost in terms of fitness.
.
And transitioning your kids in minimalist footwear, which is becoming more and more available, is one of the best thing you can do for them over the long-term 😃
.
Repost from @thefootcollective :
“This is how your feet look in most footwear available today
👣
To function optimally, the human foot is designed to splay wide at the forefoot to distribute the load of our body and be widest at the tips of the toes
.
The vast majority of footwear gets narrower and tapers to a point at the very place our foot should be widest 🤔
.
.....and we wonder why our feet cave inwards, why they hurt, why we get bunions. It’s really quite obvious - most shoes aren’t made in the shape of feet and it’s deforming our foundation

😱 There is widespread concern in the community

😱 There is widespread concern in the community about the new strain of coronavirus. I see plenty of advice and methods shared on social media aimed at preventing infection, including very esoteric or hyper specific ones that I wouldn’t recommend at all... Be smart and don’t let panic guide your actions!⁠
⁠
The basic hygiene advice shared by the WHO will certainly be helpful and I encourage you to review and follow it (link in bio for clickable link). And if you suspect you may be infected, self isolate at home and contact your relevant health authorities before going out.⁠
.⁠
But the most potent way you will actually prevent infection (barring staying at home…) is by ensuring you get enough physical activity on a daily basis, in both volume and variety.⁠
⁠
Physical activity (except strenuous training at professional and elite levels) is an immune system adjuvant that will boost your body’s capacity to fight against the virus. This boost will be both over the short-term but also for the long term.⁠
⁠
Besides lowering your probability of getting infected if exposed to the virus, it will also:⁠
1) improve your probability of making a quick and complete recovery if you do get infected⁠
2) provide you with all the other numerous benefits from increased physical activity⁠
.⁠
Apart from dialing in your sleep and lifestyle, that’s the easiest way to actually and efficiently do something in case you are worried.⁠
.⁠
And it also works for kids! Get them out and active ⁠
.⁠
In fact, if it helps you to create a physical activity habit for the long-term, worrying about the virus might turn out to be a very positive event for your health in the long run 😁⁠
