✨ Have you tried ice baths for recovery?

I started this practice in January & I've seen a huge impact in my recovery.

It's even better when you add in the sauna (or hot tub)!

Work up to a few rounds of 2-3 minutes in the ice bath - full benefits at just 11 minutes a week!!

⬇️ Are ice baths part of your routine? Will you try it?

If you crushed it on your mat...
Take it outside and try it on the grass, rocks, or any unstable surface!

You'll see me wobble in the video. 🤣

Why is balance even important?

🔥 Helps you keep your balance on downhills
🔥 Improves your efficiency as a runner
🔥 Helps to prevent falling (and injuries)
🔥 Give your more awareness of your body in space

If you keep getting injured, you need yoga! Yoga

If you keep getting injured, you need yoga!

Yoga is a great way to improve your balance & stability - which is one factor in preventing those annoying injuries that pull you out of your favorite sport.

So let's get you practicing yoga poses that help your balance. Ready?

Here are 10 pose ideas: ⬇️⬇️⬇️

➡️ Tree Pose - one foot on the ground & the other on your leg. You can even practice this while waiting in line!

➡️ Figure Four > Hand to Big Toe - add a little movement to increase the challenge & more closely mimic real life.

➡️ Warrior 3 - start with hands on blocks or stretch your hands overhead. This is also a great strength move on top of the balance challenge.

➡️ Crow - the first arm balance many people come across, even though it''s not the easiest!

➡️ Plank > Side Plank - adding movement against to really challenge the core as you work on keeping your balance. Try on your forearm too!

➡️ Eight-Angle - this one has a lot of skills in a single arm balance, working on hip flexor strength, compression, core stability, internal rotation, and major focus.

➡️ Headstand - the body awareness you need to find balance upside down is a huge benefit for all your outdoor activities. And it encourages blood flow from your tired legs through the lungs for fresh oxygenation!

➡️ Flying Splits - Learning to shift your weight past your comfort level as you build strength in your core & upper body,

➡️ Forearm Stand (Pincha) - taking upside down to a new level with the added balance challenge of only using your forearms.

➡️ Handstand - even if you can't balance in the middle of the room, just working on this pose helps improve your balance, concentration, and strength.

Think about widening the knees - a looser bind, if you will - to make more space to get that other foot in place.

🤔Truth or Myth: you need to put your foot above

🤔Truth or Myth: you need to put your foot above or below the knee in tree pose.

This is a myth!! 🚫

(Honestly, I taught this in my early classes before questioning why)

Your knee is actually quite strong & should be able to withstand multi-directional loads.

And it does in several other common yoga poses: side plank and warrior 1 are just two examples.

📣 SHARE this with a friend to help bust this myth for everyone!
