Dr. Caitlin Casella - I help embodied movers build confidence and independence with robust exercise.

Play the long game. Eat the pie. Be swept along by life.

I was watching. It was fine. Perfectly safe and got the job done.

This scenario could apply to lots of things: Learning a new skill, taking a shot at something you haven’t attempted in a while, creative process, problem solving, learning, relationships.

In the rehab space, I find that what people need most is something they aren’t always granted: Space to explore.

Nothing will be perfect in the beginning. There will be lots of experimentation, learning by feel, trial and error, things feeling weird in your body, messy reps. It’s all part of the process.

Are we conditioned in some settings to expect judgement and correction at every turn? Do you sometimes feel like that? Maybe we could all benefit from doing more things “like nobody’s watching.”

Clinicians and folks who coach movement, perhaps we can allow more space for learning to unfold? Watching while holding questions and giving fewer answers✨

We can have it all. Strength and cardio conditioning.

Both are necessary for general health and well-rounded fitness gains. They support each other beautifully when combined in appropriate intensities and volumes throughout the week.

In Suzan’s case, we can even make it work within the physical demands of a movement teacher / personal trainer’s work schedule.

It can take a bit of zhuzhing to get the ratios right!

Among active people, I often see two scenarios:

(a) Doing too much high intensity everything for too long a duration without enough recovery. Over time, this is not sustainable. It leads to low performance, feeling pretty sh*tty, and maximum risk of injury with little reward.

(b) Spending an enormous amount of time on low intensity exercise. Not ever pushing hard enough to drive positive adaptation. This is living in Plateau Land. Worse than plateauing, the cold hard truth is that it isn’t going to keep pace with age related declines in fitness. I said what I said 😏

If you’re a woman over 40 who’s ready to get serious about figuring out your fitness for the long haul, The Slow Cooker is for you.

I’m opening up a new 20-week basics cycle in January. It’s all online with twice-weekly Zoom support.

Learn the hows and whys of training yourself for life.

The basics of strength and conditioning are pretty straightforward. And they don’t change much. I want you to keep going well beyond 20 weeks. After completing the cycle synchronously with your cohort, you’ll have lifetime (my lifetime) access to the course materials.

👉Link in my bio to add your name to the waitlist and see all the details.

Get on that waitlist quick because I’ll be sending out free tutorials for getting started right now. Before the new year.

🔑✨ Because building a sustainable fitness program is about behavior change above all else. Start building habits now, in December, that will help you hit the ground running (figuratively or literally!) when the calendar page turns.

Sometimes I record a podcast interview and then it takes me a while between recording and editing to have a listen back. Wow when I finally listened to this talk with Dr. Leah Humphries, I was so inspired!

The gears in my brain are turning with lots of ides about helping people find ways of incorporating exercise into everyday life. I’m reflecting on the elements that make physical activity meaningful through various stages of life.
leahhumphries thank you for a lively and illuminating discussion 🤩

Y’all give Leah a follow here on IG and tap the link in my bio to hear the whole episode.

Sharing today, a short piece of writing about starling flock formation. I first discovered this idea in Adrienne Maree Brown’s book, Emergent Strategy.

One small thing I can offer this weekend is an invitation to unwind a bit of tension, breathe, and settle into some feel-good movement.

🖤 It’s me, doing my thing, with my closest neighbors 🖤

Please join as my guest, a workshop I’m teaching as part of my monthly online membership. We’ll focus on calming down achy tight feelings in the neck, shoulders, and upper back.

This Sunday, Nov 10th, 9:30-10:30am EST. DM me for the Zoom link to join live, or to request the replay video link if you’re not available at this time.

As we speed toward the end of the year, the demands on our time and energy can produce overwhelm. The time we would normally dedicate to movement and exercise is often one of the first things to be cut down or eliminated entirely.

Ironically, this happens at the same time we could be leaning on our workout sessions for mental clarity, emotional fortitude, feeling grounded or burning off steam.

More is not better. Better is better.

And of course, anything is better than nothing.

Keep it short and sweet, my friends. 20-25 minutes of high quality work is a major win. Doing this 2-3 times a week with consistency is life changing.

Thoughts on running slower
