Bend Without Breaking
Navigating Fitness with Hypermobility

Vanessa Leone

In the latest episode of Triyogafit, we dive into the unique challenges and opportunities that come with hypermobility. As a yoga teacher and triathlon coach, I understand the importance of adapting fitness routines to suit individual needs, especially for women over 40 who are starting or restarting their wellness journey.

Understanding Hypermobility: Hypermobility can be both a gift and a challenge. It allows for greater flexibility, but it also requires careful attention to avoid injury. In this episode, we explore how to harness this flexibility safely and effectively.

Practical Tips for Fitness:

Listen to Your Body: Pay attention to what your body is telling you. If something feels off, it’s okay to modify or skip a movement. Strengthen and Stabilize: Focus on exercises that build strength and stability to support your joints. Mindful Movement: Incorporate yoga and mindfulness practices to enhance body awareness and prevent overextension.

Embracing your unique body and its capabilities is key to a successful fitness journey. Whether you’re starting or restarting, remember that it’s about progress, not perfection. Tune in to the full episode for more insights and tips.
