Hey Gang! This week we discussed how to assess the movement of our skull and how it can impact the rest of our body. @Sonia Berglund discussed her progress with her ankle and strategies to help her progress forward. I love discussions like this and I'm excited to have more of them all of you who have joined the 5 Day Movement Restoration Challenge next week! For those of you who haven't yet but are interested in joining- go to the pinned post and comment I'm in and we will get you registered!

I had 2 realizations from this weeks Q&A: I have a core strength issue, but since I started doing strength training I don’t have the numbness and tingling in my forearms and hands! I went to a Barre class this week and my calves, hamstrings and hips are so much stronger than they were last summer when I did this class.

Hey Gang! What’s your plans for this weekend? We are putting up our second Christmas tonight with our son & his girlfriend. Here’s a pic of our downstairs Christmas 🎄. Tomorrow morning there’s a big Jiu Jitsu testing at the gym so I’m going to go to that. It’s great to see people I have been training with over the past 9 years improving their skills & confidence. Our son is an assistant wrestling coach at his old high school & they have a tournament tomorrow. So I am going to head to that after Jiu Jitsu. Sunday is probably gonna be pretty chill. Maybe Melissa and I will go catch a movie or something. Share your plans in the comments!

Hey Forge Fam! Hope you are all having a great Thanksgiving weekend. Today is Friday & I don’t want to break tradition, so here are my wins this for the past week. 1st win- Erica is a runner/triathlete & started working with us in late August. She’s been battling Achilles' pain for the past 4 years & it was so bad she couldn’t run a mile w/out paying for it later Shes a PT & been to everyone around Metro Detroit. Unfortunately for her what really happened was she was seeing a lot of talented people but no one developed a plan & then stuck with her through it. We’ve been gradually building up her pain free mileage over the past 4-6 weeks and she really wanted to run the Turkey Trot with her daughter yesterday. Happy to say she was able to do it & had no pain! 2nd win- Had a super chill Thanksgiving w/Melissa & Gabe. Made a great ham and a ton of sides to go with it. Very pleased w/how everything turned out. 3rd win- Around the holidays we have an open mat with all of the affiliate schools around the Twin Cities. I meant to roll/train for an hour and it wound up being more like 1:15 of straight training. I can remember a time not long ago when I couldn’t do that without being concerned about back or knee pain. What are your wins for this week? Share your wins either in the comments or make your own post!
