Are you aware of your posture?
Last week there was a lot of chat in the studio around posture—why it matters for movement, functionality, and overall health. I often talk about alignment and posture in Pilates, but it’s not the only time it’s relevant. In strength training, posture and form are key to helping your muscles function and strengthen optimally so your body works as it should during movement. In the gym we can release, strengthen, and correct muscle imbalances—but awareness is just as important.
