fuckyeahyoga: To perform the Diagonal Stretch follow these 5 steps:A. Stand with your heels together but toes out with 90 degree angle (45 off the center line on each side) between your feet.B. Align your right foot toes behind your left heel and glide backwards on an imaginary line drawing out of your left heel. You will achieve a lunge position with the front foot in External Rotation (45 degree off center line) and back foot with raised heel and on the toes, not rotated any more - but straight forward on the center line. (examine the feet orientation in the photo)C. Put your right hand on your heart and let the elbow relax on the body. D. Take the left hand and reach behind you towards your desired target - back of the right knee, mid calf or heel. Arch back and rotate but don’t bend down to reach for your target.E. Hold for 30-60 sec. Yes, you heard me right. Yes, I know its a humbling experience. If you get an early case of Parkinson’s disease, don’t despair. Keep working it and perform 3-5 sets alternating legs. Yes, humbling! via IDO PORTAL - Movement Culture!

that 5ft kid.: Insecurities

that5ftkid:

I have massive insecurities. But above everything, there is the insecurity of chasing after something that never existed in the first place - or something that wasn’t worth the chase to begin with. Tonight, at the Kent Ridge track, between sets of pull ups and ring rows, I broke down and cried….
