I asked @askforausten this week what her main personal “wins” have been from our training…

She mentioned that she’s loving the boost of ✨confidence✨ our training has given her & is grateful to not have back pain any more!🤩

She mentioned that her partner would routinely massage her shoulders after long hours at the salon but began noticing that her body didn’t feel the same amount of exhaustion or the need for a massage as much! It was a shock to her since that’s just how it’s “always been”! She didn’t know she could improve this or that there was a better way till now.🥰💪✨

She also shared a story with me about her grandpa who would routinely poke her in the back to fix her posture BUT THIS YEAR, she got a compliment on her posture instead!🤩

I am so proud of Austen’s dedication, improvement and trust in the process.⭐️I am looking forward to even more results as we continue our training!💪

💇‍♀️ If you are a hair stylist or work long hours on your feet, come see me! You deserve high quality support so you can continue doing what you love with less aches or pains and more easy!☺️✨

LET YOUR MOVEMENT PRACTICE BUILD YOU UP NOT TEAR YOU DOWN!!!

P.S. I highly do not recommend poking people or degrading their posture, there’s healthier ways to go about this. And one of them is training with myself or my colleagues at @soflobiomechanics 😉💪😏 taken in Dania Beach, Florida by @aligned.with.amber

❌STOP working against yourself in the gym‼️

Every time you train (especially with weight!), you're teaching your body how to be or how to react.

If you have hyperextended knees and load that hyperextension with more weight, you're reinforcing a compensation that is going to lead to a lot of pain‼️ Yeek!

If you're unsure of what exercises you should and shouldn't do for your unique posture then I'd recommend my Movement Audit ™️.

If you want a breakdown of your posture to understand where your pain might be stemming from, then I'd recommend my Posture and Movement Analysis™️.

You're just a message away from your aligned self.😎💪✨

Your neck posture isn't as hard to fix as you'd think.

Your neck is simply playing a balancing act from what's going on underneath.

Once we address the foundation from the feet, hips and ribcage, the neck automatically starts to shift.

If you'd like to assess where to start to resolve your neck pain or posture, I perform posture and movement audits.

This audit includes a breakdown of your current posture, where your weaknesses are stemming from and a movement breakdown of what you should and shouldn't do in your exercise routine to start seeing and feeling the results.💪✨

DON'T DO MY ROUTINE!!!

This post isn't about me guiding you on how to do your morning routine.

This routine evolves with me. I want your routine to be personal to you and evolve with you as well.

If you take anything from this routine, take the fact that I am outside in the morning sun.☀️

Spending time outdoors with naked eyes in the morning sun is one of the most important and under rated health hacks‼️

Use your intuition on what YOU should do with these precious morning moments in the healing sunshine.

This is what my intuition has guided me to do in the 5-10min I take in the morning light before I go about the rest of my day.

Sometimes I add more movement. Sometimes not.

Anyhoo, hope this inspired you to go out in the morning sun AND listen to your body's incredible intuitive powers.😎✨🙏

Your movement should build you UP⬆️ not tear you down.⬇️

Through my lens as a posture & functional movement specialist, every movement has a purpose.🕵️

It's either feeding your compensations, leading to imbalance & deterioration OR it's strengthening your weaknesses, building toward sustainable alignment and functional strength.💪

In this video we have a common quad dominant movement that might be feeding your compensations.

One of the most common postures I see in women are hyper extended knees and an anterior pelvic tilt.

This is largely due to too much sitting and being completely out of tune with the muscles on the back of our bodies (especially the glutes and hammy's!).

Focusing on a quad dominant movement feeds our already overactive quads and overused hip flexors. Which means that this movement and ones similar will further your compensation and cause deterioration & pain.😬

This can cause back pain, sacrum pain, knee pain, pelvic floor issues and so much more!

Are you catching on to why it's important to monitor what exercises you give your precious time and attention? I hope so.

Anyhoo, if you struggle knowing what your unique posture needs, I'm just a message away and would love to invite you to do a posture and movement analysis for your clarity and future functional self. 💪😎🥰

Talk soon. Xoxo

When you prioritize alignment, precision, fascial hydration, and functionality, you aren’t just working out—you are evolving on a cellular level. 🌀 Here is what happens when you give your body its natural blueprint:
🛑 The pain fades out: When you restore structural precision, the constant wear-and-tear stops. Your joints get their space back, and chronic aches finally disappear.
🌊 The emotional vault opens: Your fascia stores stress and old memories. As you hydrate and release these deep tissues, emotions will stir. The feelings you buried come to the surface to be challenged and finally released. Your body stops hiding the stress.
💧 You move like water: Goodbye stiffness. Fascial hydration transforms rigid, robotic movement into something smooth, springy, and effortless.
⏳ You unlock true longevity: By deeply understanding how your body is meant to function, you play the long game. You’re bulletproofing your joints and ensuring you stay radiant, capable, and strong for decades to come. 👑
True strength isn’t about forcing your body into submission—it’s about restoring its natural intelligence.
Drop a 👑 if you’re ready to step into deep, functional alignment.

💡 The Benefits of Pendulum Swings in Your Training 🚀
If you're ready to upgrade your movement from basic physics to high-level biomechanics, it’s time to talk about the pendulum swing.
Rhythmic swinging isn't just an exercise—it's a masterclass in human engineering. 🤓

Here is the nerdy, science-backed breakdown of why your body loves this motion:

🧬 Biotensegrity in Action: Your body operates on biotensegrity (floating compression). Swings distribute mechanical stress perfectly across your entire kinetic chain, meaning your bones, muscles, and fascia share the load effortlessly instead of overloading one single joint.

🏹 Master of Elastic Recoil: Swings tap into your stretch-shortening cycle (SSC). When you decelerate the weight, your tendons and fascia store kinetic energy like a stretched rubber band, then "snap" back to launch the return phase. It’s pure, energy-efficient power!

💦 Viscoelastic Tissue Hydration: Think of your fascia like a sponge. The rhythmic shearing forces of a swing squeeze that fascial matrix, forcing fresh fluid and hyaluronic acid into the tissue.

Fun Fact: This optimizes the "slide-and-glide" between your tissue layers, leaving you feeling incredibly fluid, not stiff!

🧠 Proprioceptive Overdrive: Fascia is your body's richest sensory organ. Because the angle of gravity and momentum is constantly shifting during a swing, your nervous system gets a massive data upgrade, instantly sharpening your balance and reflex stabilization.

🧲 Mechanotransduction (Joint Magic): Traditional heavy lifting compresses your joints. The centrifugal force of a swing does the exact opposite—it creates traction (gently pulling the joint apart). This mechanical tension triggers cellular signals that actually strengthen your ligaments and joint capsules without the grinding wear-and-tear.

Fun Fact: It’s essentially a strength workout and a joint decompression session happening at the exact same time.

Stop training like a robot and start tapping into your body's natural physics. ⚡ Drop a 🙌 if your inner science nerd is ready to add some swings to your next session!

Inspiration Alert 🚨 True strength isn't just about what you can lift—it’s about how deeply you can connect. ✨

There are clients who come into your space to train, and then there are clients who completely redefine what dedication looks like.

After navigating a profound medical journey and major surgery, this beautiful soul committed to the ultimate comeback.

She didn't just look for a quick fix; she dedicated herself to a total full-body metamorphosis. 🦋

Major physical trauma can make us feel like visitors in our own skin.
But Marty showed up, cared about the details and integrated them into her everyday life with so much grace, curiosity and commitment.💪

The results speak for themselves:
🌱 A beautifully integrated, full-body connection.
🌱 Solid structural stability.
🌱 A posture that radiates resilience and grace.

She reminds me every week why this work matters. Your body is capable of incredible healing when you give it the right stimulus, patience, and love.

Thank you for trusting the process and allowing me to be a part of your powerful journey!
