My Man, our boys HERO

My hubby is cool, rugged, and I love it. He just did his first 50K trail run in the Ozark Mountains. it had 16 creek crossings some of which were knee deep. Here are some pics.

The transversus abdominus

I am always screaming at my clients about standing tall and pulling in the TVA(transversus abdominus). Here is a very scary picture on day five of Disney World. It is late afternoon and I am frustrated with the kids. Check out my posture after 5 days of walking.....Naval to Spine Mendy!!!!!!! A shout out to my hubby a big "thanks" for taking this picture.


The transversus abdominus is made of a wide band of fibers that wrap horizontally around the middle of the body. It forms a supportive girdle for the trunk, making it an essential muscle of core stabilization. Pulling in the transversus abdominus results in a reduction of diameter of the abdomen. In other words, it gives you a waist.
