Day 11 of #50DaysofContinuousMatthewGoughPhotos for @robinsonfitness.ldn. . . . Ok, so today it’s back to how yoga infuses my life. I’ve just been for a run, first time in months. It was hard. But I focused on my breathing, enjoying the fresh air, smiling and greeting the other runners and dog walkers (we’re not in London, so they actually reply here!) and here’s some post-run yoga inspired stretching. Note I’ve got my socks ON. I’m getting more and more into this active stretching idea: I’m using my body to prevent me from slipping rather than just relaxing into a deep stretch with a sticky mat. . . . #yoga #yogafun #instayogi #yogachallenge #mendoyoga #lovetheskinyourein #lifeofayogateacher #runner #runnerslunge #stretch #activestretch #engagethosemuscles #strength #control #balance #core (at Canterbury, Kent) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br-D1n5gc3s/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mig1g91xkhoo

So here’s the first #strength #variation on a “classic” #asana that brings in an #activestretch. #trianglepose but with the lower arm extended to the side so you have to use your side body muscles to support your upper body. Note the upper arm is pressing down on the side ribs to prevent them from flaring up. The intention is to keep the spine straight, and ultimately this top arm will each upwards in the traditional way. #yoga #yogateacher #menofyoga #mendoyoga #core #sidebody #engage #meggings #gingeryogi #shakeitup #alwayslearning #imalittleteapot (at Pimlico)

Stretch? Yes! BUT - Try this instead of grabbing a resistance band or rope and pulling your on your legs ... 🥊🥊🥊 🤸🏼‍♀️ Turn your passive (E.G. grabbing arm*grabbing foot for quad stretch*split stance for hip flexor stretch, etc) stretches into active stretches 🤸🏼‍♀️ • • 🚀 Earn Range of Motion • • 🏵 Passive stretches most often produce a weak neural (BRAIN) response (even though a feeling of “relief” is common, it’s not necessarily producing results) • • 🤔 Use ACTIVE stretches (INSTEAD OF PASSIVE STRETCHES) before and after competition/workout • • #activestretch #rangeofmotion #strength #hamstrings #lowback #nervoussystem #mobility #flexibility #workout #exercise #warmup #cooldown #alyssajohnsonfitness #fergusfallsmn #fergusfalls #mn #minnesota #fitness https://www.instagram.com/p/B0M_W0EhCd8/?igshid=6m7dee5eel5l

Keep active, keep loose. We designed the Active Stretch to be a wide, super strong and slightly elastic looped stretching strap. #activestretch #coreprodigy #stretch #stayloose
