I kept doing them and waiting for my hips to feel better .... They didn't.. They got tighter... New Realization: If my core was stronger my hips wouldn't have to do extra work and my hip flexors could relax. New Plan: Core exercises 3x a week with 24 hrs rest between workouts! This could take 6 - 8 weeks But it will be so worth it! #justdoitSee this image largerI miss my Dad everyday But especially on Father's Day Happy Father's Day in Heaven Dad 💕See this image largerPosted a goalSee this image largerTaking hubby to lunch at a Brazilian Steakhouse Texas de Brazil For his Happy Father's Day!See this image larger(1 comments)See this image largerSee this image largerGood Morning Sparkers!!
