For myself

Hello, beauties!

Today I decided to make a workout routine for myself, that is very personalized for my body and mind.

As I have known for a long time, my lower back has a curve, known as lordosis, that is caused by weak lower abdominals, tight hip flexors and weak glute muscles.

What I think for me, is that my core isn't very solid just around my lower body.

The good thing is, that this is absolutely treatable, and this is maintaining my own self. My identity isn't going to change, it is going to be better and stronger. It will work better.

So, with those things in mind, let's create a personalized workout for myself.

Start with patience. Your body will give it one day. Do it right. It will give you that.

• Lower abdominal leg raises, hold the navel into your spine and keep your lower back on the ground. 

• Leg bridges

• Single leg bridges, hold and baby pulse

• Stars

• Leg kick to the back, baby pulse keeping your core tight

• alternative leg and hand up, knee down, hold and baby pulse

• Blank position, breathe

And then flexing:

• Hip flexors, abs tight

• Thigh flexing, mermaid position, hold your abs

• Glutes, pigeon position

• Child's pose

• Cat stretching for the chest

Is this too much? No. I will know what to do. This is good. Most important are leg bridges, lower abdominals, stars and core workout, that is the baseline. And what comes to stretching, hip flexors, thighs and glutes. And chest. 

My body will be stronger. And I will be able to hold my lower body well. It will be easier! 

Also, I will have a foam roller to open the tensions in my front thigs and I will do that after my workout :)

I'm excited about this!

I love you guys,
Annika
