Your body isn’t a collection of muscles—it’s a fascial web.

Most fitness programs ignore that.
That’s why pain keeps coming back, flexibility plateaus, and injuries repeat, no matter how “targeted” the exercise seems.

Saw a line of noisy school kids queueing on the train station, and felt relieved that it seemed like they were at the next platform.

Settles onto my train, and they start boarding my carriage 😬. I get up and walk 2 carriages down, hopefully far enough out the way 😂
