When your ribcage + pelvis are stacked, you have all the core you've been looking for. Why? Because your respiratory diaphragm and pelvic floor start moving together and create a taut drum of your abdomen. Instead of feeling like a fragile flat tire, your lower back feel solid, supportive, and smooth.

How often do you work on your core strength? I do at least 1 reset practice per week. Where I roll, release, and activate my core strength strategically. This 10 minute core practice has all of my favorites.

Yoga and walking are awesome but they won't signal bone. For that you need load. Do this 25 minute practice to built bone. It's yoga-inspired and strength infused.

I thought I was doing things "right" but I was stuck in the Good Posture Trap. My ribs were forward and my butt was back cutting off my True Core and leading to SI joint instability. Watch this short for a demonstration.

Friday always feels like crossing a finish line. I'm super dedicated to my practices Monday-Friday so I can go with the flow on Saturday and Sunday.

What is your weekly workout rhythm? How do you manage days with low energy? feeling off? or pressed for time?
