Dance used to inspire movement in Hockey players in the Soviet Union. If we think Ido ortal is ahead of his time, then this surely was!! 2 minute clip well worth a watch

Anyone have any suggestions for pre made meals service in Waterford? I was speaking to flavour house and they are too busy. Any other suggestions?
Working on some different types of movements.
Overhead squats are probably the best exercise I have come across. Strength, mobility and balance all combined. 5th ever time doing these. Up to 50kg now. Body weight is the target. Tough on the wrists though.
Box jumps with a twist. Loving training with different twists.

"The body will become better at whatever you do or don't do. If you don't move, your body will make you better at not moving. If you move, your body will allow more movement" - Ido Portal.
Scapular shrugs. Great exercise. Nice to move different parts of the body.
Tuck planche to handstand attempt. Getting better. Strength isn't the issue, it's the mobility in the shoulders. Slowly improving though.

Injury is part and parcel of sport and leading an active lifestyle. It's hard to stay motivated when injured. Sometimes, the hardest part of all is the lonely rehab. I think it may be easier for athletes who compete in individual sports as they are used to training alone. However, its never easy. Take a look at this 2 part documentary on South African rugby player Jean De Villiers. Remarkable story and nothing but respect for the man. Its not a rugby story, its an athletes story!
