    What's with the negative comments? This workout is awesome and the body feels refreshed afterwards. Take your small mindedness elsewhere

      Because this is not a workout, or even a warm-up. And it doesn’t help the body in any way, but you need to WARM UP YOUR BODY BEFORE TRAINING.

      I don’t get how this isn’t a workout or warmup? I personally run 100m and lift heavy 6 days a week but this is absolutely a workout. If you don’t work on simple movements like this you will pay the price as you age.. any professional coach gets you doing this before you start.

    So, I came back to this today after several months of training with primal movement. It is really wonderful to see how it is easy for me to flow through the movements now. However also neat to notice that the movements still aren't "easy". It reminds me of ballet - one can become more and more proficient and expert, but even the simplest technique drills still challenge the body.

  • @SportChezSoi

  • @sauerkrautie.imoutie
    @sauerkrautie.imoutie 6 місяців тому +26

    i just want to thank you so much for this. I’ve been home bound because of physical illness and even though these exercises are a bit too advanced for me, the way you constantly remind us what to focus on and what we should be feeling has allowed me to adjust the movements while remaining confident. you’ve changed how i feel about movement. it’s been something i’ve feared for so long because movement = pain and having to recover. thank you for finding fun movements that are easy to apply to our own personal abilities and thank you for taking the time to really explain and remind us what to focus on. i really appreciate the effort.

    • @smoovmoves
      @smoovmoves  5 місяців тому +3

      Thanks for the comment! Means a ton that this stuff has impacted you in a positive way. As someone who dealt with chronic pain for years, I can relate. It can feel like you're always running away from the pain. I invite you to focus on what you are building with your body and your movement practice...what you are moving towards. A few minutes of journaling on what you want to create with your physical experience can shift the focus to that growth oriented mindset. Let me know how this lands for you. I really appreciate this share and your support. Keep going!

    I really liked this workout, but it was hard. However, it was easier to follow than the previous one. I really liked that you explained step by step each of the movements. I am planning to repeat this routine at least once a week until I am so comfortable with the movements that I can anticipate them. Thank you so much for posting. I always wanted to include primal movements into my workouts. Let's see how far this 56 year old body can take me.

Plus my strength and body asthetics has improved greatly. I am definitely going to implement these moves into my workouts. Thank you for your time and dedication. You have a new subscriber in me. Have a great day.

    Awesome awesome workout man. I really appreciated not only the numerous cues to help guide instinct and body alignment but also the ones to stay in the moment. I don’t have anything to prove, and I don’t getting any stronger by zoning out and going through the motions but I can during workouts at times. Little things like saying “this is your minute” “connect to your center” change this into an empowering moment. I also appreciated the core and cooldown at the end. This is an awesome all in one workout that made 25 minutes fly.
