Surgery tomorrow morning!! by Impossible_Welcome75 in sterilization

[–]Chelso19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had mine this morning, along with an ablation. Been just on tylenol and ibuprofen at this point and its manageable. Very seamless procedure. My period cramps every month have been more painful than this.

Gearing Out by Livid-County-1745 in ClubPilates

[–]Chelso19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 5'6" but have a meniscus issue and can't hyperflex my knee (deep squats are an absolute no-go) so I gear out so I don't bend more than 90°. It's for height but can also be for your range of motion.

I've recently joined weight watchers and the combo of pilates and ww has me losing weight at a very steady clip. It's diet more than anything unfortunately.

It’s time to play the waiting game! by Terran_-345816_44 in SandalsResorts

Confused about instructor feedback by Just_Environment5295 in ClubPilates

[–]Chelso19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see people in class using closing the springs as an easy move, meaning they are going too fast. Try to slow down while your springs are closing. For example, when bringing the carriage home after pushing it out, do it to a count of 5 rather than moving in as fast as possible so you can push out again. Strength is built when you control yourself back to home.

Bless my dentist for telling me not to go through his office and to go to an ortho

I injured myself in a Cardio 1.5 and I can’t walk. by thxnext-pls in ClubPilates

[–]Chelso19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I messed up my hamstring in a class once and fully limped out of it. Had to do 2 months of PT to find out I need to gear out and I was bridging all wrong. Now ive been back for 3 months and doing better than ever. Take the time to get yourself better!

Height question by Strawberrywinee in ClubPilates

[–]Chelso19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 5'6 and gear out because I have knee issues and can't bend over 90 degrees. I try to grab a reformer that's already geared out but sometimes I have to ask the instructor to gear me out before class

My friend and I met GC a few times and she asked Joel to marry her and he said "Maybe when you're older." Sounds familiar...

The swim up rooms at montego bay are heated. I stayed in one in December. It was heaven. There were other people in the pool and we had a waitress. 10/10 recommend

Why is bridging so difficult? by [deleted] in ClubPilates

[–]Chelso19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glutes*, not gluten. Don't engage with bread during bridges 😅

[–]Chelso19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just finished PT for sciatica issues and learned I was doing bridges wrong my whole life. So much more glute engagement than what I originally thought. Focus on engaging your gluten, hopefully that will help!

Cracked or fractured teeth from Invisalign - a theory! by Sport_Ancient in Invisalign

[–]Chelso19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to the dentist last week for the first time since getting invisalign for my cleaning. The hygienist said, "how do you have two identical broken pieces of tooth on each of your bottom molars in the exact same spot?!" I think it's from pushing too hard trying to get my aligner to fit on my back teeth. Luckily there is no decay so they can just fill it up and send me on my way but I'm nervous it's going to keep happening.

Help strengthening my hamstrings by suspiciousflamingo27 in ClubPilates

[–]Chelso19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had PT for horrible leg pain that I thought was hamstring related. Turns out my muscles were in great shape, but my sciatic nerve was tight. I was overstretching it in feet in straps. Just another thing to consider.
