Squishy ball roll. Chest, hip flexors, upper back, obliques and my personal fave, the gut roll. This gentle pressure helps with core function, breathing mechanics, posture, digestive function and nervous system regulation. Plus it feels great!
Need a ball? I just got a new shipment. DM me. It’s the best $20 you’ll ever spend.

You can work hard without killing your body
The “right” amount of sore is a sign that your body was challenged, not punished.
A slight, manageable soreness 24-48 hours after a workout (especially in targeted muscles) can indicate effective training and adaptation. It shouldn’t leave you limping, dreading stairs or unable to move for days.
Extreme soreness is not a badge of honor; it’s often a sign of doing too much too soon. Progress comes from consistency, not intensity alone. Aim to feel worked, not wrecked.
It Doesn’t Have to Hurt to Work 🌈 ✨

Between cowboy boots @zachlanebryan and bare feet at the beach for Elle’s volleyball, my feet and shins were really craving some rolling. @marlenejanethompson came to the rescue in this morning’s Mashup. Love this class and its combo of core, rolling and cardio! Trifecta of awesomeness.

ABD >> Always be draping.
I’m convinced this chest opening stretch with the squishy ball between the shoulder blades is the only reason people take class. 😝 Feels sooo good and is such a good counter stretch to the internal rotation we are in all day with phones, computers and everything else that’s in front of us. #thedrape #alwaysbedraping #cheststretch #chestopener #goodposture #functionalfitness #itdoesnthavetohurttowork #alkalign
