Learning to snowboard was tougher than I anticipated. I’m either sore or bruised 😂 and the early morning bendy-stretchy 🧘🏾♂️ was exceptionally difficult. All I wanted to do was lie flat on the mat and go to sleep 😴. But, we know that when shit gets hard it’s time to dig in and push to the end 👊🏾.

I sit a lot, ride bikes a lot and my hips are very tight. As a consequence, I don’t get full range of motion as I exercise and am unable to fully tap into my power (thinking about running).
So, yoga benefit #738 - unlock your body to more fully express your power and go faster for longer 💪🏾.

We had the best day - father & son learning to snowboard together 🏂. Of course he outshined his old man…but I made him earn it 👊🏾.
Part two tomorrow.

This flatlander is about to learn how to “shred” 🏂.
I’m sure that reality will be very different than what I’m imagining 🤣🤣.
