Kiel X VRTUS

Happy place 💆🏽‍♀️

Your posture tells a story, and for most of us, it’s one of hunched shoulders, a tight chest, and an upper back that’s been gradually switching off for years.

Unlike a lot of equipment, the reformer challenges your upper back through full ranges of movement, rows, pulling patterns, and exercises that train the muscles between your shoulder blades to actually fire and hold. That’s the stuff that pulls you upright. That’s what makes you stand taller walking out of class than when you walked in.

We spend so much time in forward flexion, phones, laptops, steering wheels, and the reformer actively works against that. It strengthens the posterior chain, opens the chest, and retrains your body to find length through the spine.

The result is better posture. Less tension in the neck and shoulders. And a back that feels like it’s working with you, not against you.

This is why we love what we do. 🤍

Taught this in Steel a couple of weeks ago, on a light yellow spring 💛

A side lying series with a couple of dynamic variations, to advance the movement, and to load up the obliques. It’s sneaky good.

Give it a go and let me know how you feel the next day 😅
