I came to this forum for the first time this week after Coach Hurst's 1st Annual Kansas Seminar ;). I have been posting ever since under Bob's (my husband) registered account. Since it looks like I'll be here for a while, I thought I'd go legal and register my own name. :)
In the past, I have worked out with dumbbells, but stopped after a major move 4 years ago and have never gone back to them. I practice Ashtanga yoga with a "yogi" friend, but that has been on hiatus since she had a baby a few months ago. I do participate in a weekly "relaxation" yoga class, but it does not challenge me like the Ashtanga workouts did. I train in Okinawan Goju-Ryu Karate at least twice a week. This has been both a blessing and a curse as I have experienced several irritating injuries from this that never seem to heal completely.
I have been practicing FlowFit, though not for the past 3 weeks due to extra time put in at work, but I plan on picking that back up soon. I just started Intu-Flow yesterday, and I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of Prasara. Eventually, I want to move up to using the mini-Clubbells with the Intu-Flow. We also have the Forward Pressure and Be Breathed and I plan on trying those out in the future. I have started the shoulder rehab exercises with a mini-Clubbell that Ryan showed us at the seminar (as well as the hip-opening flow - which is awesome!).
My goals are just that I want to be pain-free from my various injuries (Bob is tired of my whining so I get no sympathy from him anymore. ;) ), I want to increase my core strength, and regain and extend my flexibility and balance.
Cheers!
