Thanks for the great fitness app! Sarah 🫶🏽

This morning was a good stretch! I needed it after walking 11 miles around the State Capitol during the day at work. 
I’m feeling greater flexibility and core strength so I’m starting to try these as a flow with chaturanga in between poses 🤌🏽
Thank you Sarah 🫶🏽

Definitely needed this after traveling back to Denver from Miami 🫶🏽

First time doing these.  Wow!  I'm really not very flexible! LOL!  But I think this is the next step in my fitness journey.  I've gotten stronger and lost weight with strength training and nutrition, but would love to get more toned and flexible.  These felt great but I certainly have a lot to work on.  I think I'm really going to love these as I get better at them. 😃❤️

I always feel so much more loose and ready to take on the world after these stretches! Thank you for them, and for the inspiration Sarah!

So tight this morning! But felt good after 🤌🏽

I’ve done this now a few times, and I definitely feel much more loose. Give Sarah’s program a try, it’s a great stretch! Even if your newcomer to yoga stretches, like myself. I’m loving this Sarah!!!

Yoga for Tight Hips

Rest Day for me today so these were a nice stretch to get something in.  Love this stretches Sarah!🤍

Today is Day 2 of three for chemotherapy treatment, the Dr said to take it easy so this was a nice strectch & centering

Yoga for Neck/Shoulders

I feel better and I’m getting back at it Sarah! About to go do some cardio and wanted to stretch out before.😊

I don’t know if you will see this Sarah, but I miss you. I’m trying my best to make you proud, even if it is just small steps💗

Sarah I am adding to the goals you helped me set for the rest of the year. I want to see how deep I can take a split. I’m nowhere close, but this will put my discipline, will, and habits to the test. I may not reach it, but as you know I like setting the bar high because you may realize just how far you’ve come. Progress, not perfection!💗

How to: Full Splits

Great stretch & always feel centered after 🤌🏽

Struggling the last two days with motivation & the effects if chemotherapy

Needed this to help ground me today 🤌🏽
Thank you Sarah 🫶🏽
