CS has a You Tube channel if you want to try w/out committing to a subscription - or if your PBS channel carries it you can try it that way. I think the Streaming site provides at least a 7 day free trial for you to see if it would work for you.
This workout from Jessica Valent is also a good one for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xc1TuZ_14lQ I did it and then realized that a lot of my pain was resolved by doing these exercises. I think a lot of it is caused by the endless sitting working from home... Donna |

I'll check out CS's YT channel and look at some of their DVDs, too. I don't think my local PBS station carries it, sadly.

I have issues with my hips from sitting too much at work. I use a break app on my computer. I try and stand up every time the app comes up. Sometimes I skip it and I think my hips feel worse. Second the classical stretch recommendation. Plus I try and stretch every night and that helps. I use this one.

In several different threads over the years, I recall a few people saying they had to give up doing Leslie Sansone videos because it aggravated their hip flexors. If you are doing a lot of video walking workouts, maybe try cutting back on them a bit and do a different kind of cardio to see if that makes a difference?

I do Essentrics/Classical Stretch 5 days a week for a few years. I can't see myself stopping. I work from home and try to do one or two barre/chair workouts, too. Some of the floor work and floor stretches are helpful too.
I also make a point to get in a miniwalk during the day. It might be walking outdoors for 5-10 minutes. I figured out that I never sat in the office at my desk for two hours straight. Why now?? If it's raining I do a 2-3 minute Essentrics warmup. Working from home, I try to get in as many steps by lunch that I would get if I commuted to work. When I was commuting and in the office, I would get about 4,000 steps before my lunchtime walk. Crazy that it's harder for me to get in my steps at home but it tells me how much I am not moving during the workday. |
