And, furthermore I insisted, I am not good at meditating, sitting still or abdominal breathing and I don’t enjoy it! My friend being very persistent persuaded me to give Gentle Yoga a try. Fast forward to today, yoga has helped me in every aspect of my life.  After much practice, classes, certification and affiliation with the Yoga Alliance, I now share what I learned with my clients during our private and small group yoga practice.  - [3 Simple Steps To Alleviate Your Nagging Back Pain](https://functionalfitnessguru.com/3-simple-steps-to-alleviate-your-nagging-back-pain/): Counteract your daily movements with stretching We all have certain movement and movement patterns that we repeat day in and day out. Maybe it is sitting with your head forward staring at a computer screen or maybe it is crossing one leg over the other for extended periods of time. These patterns, that we all have, cause certain muscles to get short and tight and others to become overly stretched and probably pretty weak. Then when we go the gym we often exacerbate the problem by favoring the stronger side.  This can lead to severe muscle imbalances and back pain.  Try “unwinding” your tight muscles by doing stretches that incorporate movements that are the opposite of your daily movements especially before going to the gym. - [Are You Ready To Finally Lose Weight And Ditch The Pain?](https://functionalfitnessguru.com/are-you-ready-to-finally-lose-weight-and-ditch-the-pain/): Turn One Coffee Break Into a Movement Break Why not start your next visit with a friend or coworker by spending a few minutes moving together?
