I’ve never done tai chi but know people who swear by it.
The red women didn’t like it so she does Barr and Yoga.
Barr is straight Bull ****. I went to one class.

Barr as in ballet barre? I’d have to be WAAAAAY more flexible than I am now to take that on! Huge props to Red Woman for being able to do that.

Edit to add: I can’t even do proper turnout (of my feet)

I was literally born pigeon-toed - in full-leg casts up to my hips as an infant (plaster casts, with cloth diapers, yikes), and my feet have resolutely turned back in.

— great for soccer tho

All exercise! If you don't move it you loose it.

I'm not sure I can do the splits anymore.

 

[rocytop2624]

Lulz.

Me and @Orangeslice13 always gotta be right and we the only ones.

All you have to do is Google the sheet. It's not rocket science. And I have felt the burn also.

I never could.

Anyone here do tai chi? I’d like to start, but there are few in-person classes, none of which work for my current schedule, and I don’t know that vids will train me properly.

I’m especially interested in opinions of yoga vs. tai chi.

I like the idea that tai chi does not involve getting down on the floor. I can get down just fine, but getting up —oof.

Tai chi is something that has always interested me. Seems so meditative.

 

[rocytop2624]

I also have a disc that slips sometimes and that's another reason I don't do sit-ups or get on the stretch machine that turns you upside down. That thing about killed me.

 

[WestTennesseeFox]

I start kickboxing classes Tuesday. Not quite as meditative as tai chi.

Flexibility prevents injury.

Lol, wtf you think he's flexing enough to get an injury, besides his elbows sitting in a scooter eating Arby's?

If you slip on ice and fold a knee under you and your flexible you get up and walk away if you’re not you get a surgery

You were talking to 95.

 

[Orangeslice13]

You were talking to 95.

Yes but 95….. is actually a little dude who’s in good shape.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Let’s see who can figure out the secret message

 

[Behr]

Yes but 95….. is actually a little dude who’s in good shape.

Yes but that doesn't work with my Arby's joke that I was connecting to from his post in the golf thread.

But that's fine, I'll go joke somewhere else.

 

[Weezer]

If 95 slips on the ice, well, weebles wobble but they don't fall down.

I tore a meniscus walking through my dining room. The cat (former cat) woke up and looked around when it popped. That was before I added commentary.

I don’t do anything that involves twisting a knee any more.

You’re too young for that. That’s my crappy body replying.

I'm younger than him and my body is like the Operation board game.
