I will brace for the downvotes, but after some non scientific and anecdotal research, I have concluded that either Liforme yoga mats smell like they’ve never been cleaned or the people who use them do.
Maybe a causation vs correlation situation, I’ll never know. But I will now move across the room if someone rolls one out next to me.
Please wash your mats, I’m begging you. That is all! hides
If you were my neighbor and saw me fall into the pit today but pretended not to, I want you to know I really needed you to laugh with me and acknowledge how funny that was because yall made it so much worse pretending it didn’t happen 😂 girl we locked eyes in agony, how could you do me like that 😭
Anyway. My knee is bruised and so is my ego. Stay safe friends
I miss the bathroom floor sharpie motivation! Why did the sharpies get removed anyway? I loved leaving little notes for inspiration or laughs. It felt like such a small but unique aspect of the studios. Post your favorite bathroom floor sharpie throwback memories/pics if you got em!
I’m finally at the point where I’m consistently trying more amplifications, and I may not be new to Solidcore but I’m new to getting familiar with my form on toes and other amps and what I’m feeling in my body when I’m doing it right.
I realized recently after an instructor actually explained how to do obliques on toes in more detail the other day during class: maybe it’s just me but I think a lot of us may be more intimidated by amplifications than we realize, not because we can’t do them but because we don’t fully understand how to safely and successfully get into them and do them. I think more people would surprise themselves and attempt them more often if instructors talked through them in the same technical way they do the featured muscle focus exercises. It was super encouraging for me and I noticed a lot of other people around me popping up to toes for a couple reps. I love this instructor because they give really good technical instruction and feedback that’s making a huge difference in my results 🫶
TL;DR instead of “you can take this on toes” hearing “if you want to try to take this on toes, first do x and then do y. You should feel this like x” gave me the confidence and info I needed to try the amp and actually learn it, more of this please!!
(ETA title says toes but should say any amplification and cueing not queuing lol*)
I didn’t even know the salmon ick existed. I’m not sure how I’ll recover from this. Thankfully, for now, there’s shrimp. Shrimp, rice mixed with mayo and sriracha, carrots and wasabi nori. I usually add more veggies but I’ve been too inexplicably exhausted to go to the grocery store yet this week and alas, girl dinner
