You can overcome something without BECOMING it. A lifetime runner who could barely walk in April, running gone for years. Today she raced on the track. The hardest work is already behind her, all that's left is the sweat and the pain. You'd never guess what she went through by looking at her. That isn't hiding it, that's what overcoming it looks like. Play the long game. ❤️‍🩹

Tight hips don't stay in the hips, they pull on your low back ALL day. That stiffness after a long day is often the psoas dragging your spine into an arch you stop noticing. The full range split squat opens that back up. Stay tall, resist the arch, go as deep as you physically can. Whatever depth you have today is the right depth. Play the long game. ❤️‍🩹
