Finding a movement practice that I enjoy and that is kind to my body is a long, ongoing process for me. A significant part of what got me into working out was feeling like my body was inadequate - too skinny. Shifting my focus away from aesthetics and bodybuilding was the first step. Shifting it away from constantly trying to improve performance was the second.

For now I am enjoying doing basic calisthenics as well as bouldering focusing on technique and fun problems over grade chasing and intensity.

Your body does not need to look or perform a certain way to be worthy and deserving of love, care, respect. Enjoy movement, enjoy your body.
