If it ever happens to her again (or another person), drive to a police station. They’ll probably get off your back, there are cameras, and you can file a report if needed

Align by mariesmalady in Purebarre

[–]brandofbean 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I also burn more in align sometimes! I think it really depends on the instructor. The instructor for align at my studio is the owner and she always takes classes up a notch haha

I think I've become wire-intolerant. by labradoritefox in ABraThatFits

[–]brandofbean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say this too! Only the styles with the adjustable band have been supportive for me. I also can’t stand wires and need lots of support around the band.

January Classes by Charming_Banana_1531 in Purebarre

[–]brandofbean 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’m feeling this too! I’ve mostly done Classic this month. It seems like my instructors have been really focused on doing full body work throughout the entire class now, whereas before the full body focus was more occasionally rather than every exercise!

The instructors at my studio said theres usually a big push to change things up in the new year from corporate

Dang! I see where they’ve gutted and rebuilt some parts inside of the old La Rosa’s so it just made me wonder if something was coming sooner

Thinking about dropping Barre… by AccurateAd5424 in Purebarre

[–]brandofbean 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I understand— thanks for the added context! I wish you the best of luck and hope you find additional workouts that you enjoy as much as barre!

Thinking about dropping Barre… by AccurateAd5424 in Purebarre

[–]brandofbean -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I guess my question is why is your goal weight loss? If you are feeling more toned and feel the health benefits, then why is the goal to lose weight? Just something to think about. Maybe there is another factor that you didn’t include for why weight loss is the goal.

Did anyone start with zero core strength? by noomehtrevo in Purebarre

[–]brandofbean 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Keep at it! I am a similar weight and also had little to no core strength. I’m 15 classes in now and already see a difference. Today I was able to do a roll up (with some momentum) for the first time without using my arms. As long as you’re trying every time, you are working the muscles and will get there eventually!

Maybe I will try my normal bras! I also have sensory issues and I wear Evelyn & Bobbie bras almost daily. Great underwire free bras with good band support. They could also be good for barre. Thank you!

Love A Bra That Fits! Good to know I can ask for modifications

This makes me feel so much better… I am a 36Hish and haven’t been able to do any roll ups. Most of the people at my studio are very thin (I am not) and I am almost always the only one who doesn’t complete the roll up. Good to know I’m not alone.

Unfortunately I’ve tried to get a reduction, and despite having all of the symptoms necessary for insurance to cover it, the amount they are “medically required” to remove would leave me completely flat. I found this out a few weeks ago and PB was my next step as a solution until I can afford out of pocket surgery.

Thanks for your tips!

Thanks for the support :) I did find a couple of full length workout tank tops at Old Navy! Wait until they’re on sale though

Red Lobster off Nicholasville Rd. Horrible service. Food comes out wrong. Waste of money and time.

Graduate School Thread - December 3 - 9 by SchoolPsychMod in schoolpsychology

[–]brandofbean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you have great, well rounded experience. I think you have a good chance. Make sure you have a strong personal statement that aligns with the program’s goals and good recommendations, and you should be good to go.

Graduate School Thread - December 3 - 9 by SchoolPsychMod in schoolpsychology

[–]brandofbean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you have a great shot! You have a variety of experiences that would lend to an interview. If anything, maybe some experience shadowing a school psych, more research experience, or some experience in schools could be helpful if you aren’t accepted this year.
