Being a big baseball fan, I spent some time last week watching the St.Louis Cardinals beat Texas in the World Series. I have watched some unbelievable games in my time (with the Twins winning two world series of course!) but I have never seen one like game 6 last Thursday. The Cardinals scored in the 9th, 10th and 11th innings to win 10-9. Twice the Rangers led by two runs after the top half of the inning, only to have the Cards come up with the tying runs. Twice the Rangers came within ONE STRIKE of winning the World Series! I was rooting for the underdog Rangers since they had not won a championship in their 50 year existence, so yes it stung. I can't imagine being a fan from Texas. I guess it's about as bad as the Vikings never being able to finish the deal in the Super Bowl.
What does this have to do with fitness and goals? It means to never, ever give up. The body will always strive to get back to its original form. Movement-wise, this means to be able to flex, extend, retract, and bend to name a few. Some of Adam Glass' clients have been able to get 15% motion back in as little as a week! And that is after 20 years of abuse or overuse in certain positions. The body is amazingly resilient so always have HOPE. And seek out a Gym Movement trainer like myself:)
