Table Talk

with Lisa

Thankful

1/13/2019

 
I am sitting here in Nicaragua, looking onto the street in front of the house. The sound of children playing in the street, the rumble of cars passing, the clopping of hooves on the cobblestone surround me and if I close my eyes I can faintly hear old men talking, brooms sweeping and babies crying. 

I breathe in the smells of nacatamales being cooked, the humidity in the air, the fresh fruit being sold in the market up the road. 

I feel the sun on my face as a cup of coffee is handed to me by my sweet husband, Tom. 

There are so many things that I wish for but today I am just thankful for eyes that can see the beauty of the world around me, the ears that hear life being lived, the ability to experience the world around me. 

Are Your Pants Killing Your Hips?

1/12/2019

 
I ripped a pair of pants. 
I wish I were kidding, it was embarrassing.
This made me realize that the average person can’t move from the hips, based on popular wardrobes!
Don’t let your tight hips kill your low back. The hip is a glorious tri-axial joint, with a ball-and-socket range of motion.
Your sitting locks it down.
Your pants are doing it, too!
Your low back will start to move for a hip that can’t. This results in low back pain, disc arrangements, and joint degeneration.
The low back has uniplanar, sliding joints. It isn’t structurally designed to move for your hip.
Demand more out of your hip and create some low back stability.
Get pants that move better.
Test your pants in the dressing room with the fullest squat you can currently achieve.

Your Surroundings

1/11/2019

 
You learn by studying. Observation and action are also a form of study. So, your surroundings matter. What you observe and study matters.
I surround myself with brilliant clinicians and teachers, and I try to integrate every sound bite of brilliance I can catch.
When you think you know enough, you don’t. Know more.
I surround myself with people stronger than I, so my technique can be picked apart as I load proper patterns.
“The belt is only a performance tool. Build authentic stability. If you’re using the belt for stability, you shouldn’t be lifting that weight.”
– Jason Kapnick, Elite Powerlifter
When you think you’re strong enough, you’re not. Do more.​
When you think you’ve studied enough, you haven’t. Study more.
I surround myself with patients, colleagues, and friends that inspire me in myriad ways. A life of complacency is not one that drives me.
I will always want this burning feeling of wanting to know more, do more, be more. My surroundings help maintain that feeling.
And I’ve never been happier.
