Discovery

The other day I was doing my morning Pilates exercises and decided to pay more attention to my instructor’s voice. She is always saying “Squeeze the glutes. Squeeze the back of the legs. Squeeze the glutes. Squeeze the back of the legs.” So I did. I squeezed the glutes. I squeezed the back of the legs. It did feel different. I discovered a new part of my body. Very exciting discovery. I almost called my instructor to tell her.

But the next day I was so sore that I could barely climb the stairs without wincing and I had to sleep with a hot water bottle under the back of my thighs. (I gave it a day’s rest and am more comfortable now.)
