How to Get Back Into an Exercise Routine (Part 2)

This week I thought I’d let you all know a little more about the progress I’ve seen since I’ve been working with Alex (which I mentioned briefly last week). The very first time I saw him he evaluated how I focus on a target by having my eyes track a pencil head, and noticed—in fact the issue stuck out like a sore thumb—that my eye muscles, especially so on the left side, were functioning distortedly. He also suspected that, given the postural symptoms I was showing, I was likely affected to some extent by “flat feet,” which he thought should be corrected as part of a training program that would be properly thought out and functional for me (the last thing I needed was a new pain showing up somewhere in my body, or any kind of injury). We started out with a handful of exercises to train my eye muscles, as well as others that aimed at recovering a healthier shape for my feet’s arches. I also started wearing insoles that contained a resonator to engage the mechanoreceptors of my feet with a 90Hz frequency all day long. Studies have shown that these sensors respond to frequency and have a direct role in postural tone from head to toe. I was so so happy to see, during my latest evaluation with him two weeks ago, that the progress I was feeling had been made was, no doubt, real: see, in the photos that follow, the differences in both my eyes and feet over the course of those few months (March to October). The weight distribution was asymmetrical, especially on the left foot which carried most of the load. My osteopath confirmed the progress evened out my hips.

As I mentioned last week, I’m implementing, these days, a new set of exercises—and it’s easy to be confident that I’ll have, at some point, similar improvements to show for!
