Kris AnnDoes anyone have advise for safely exercising when you have #hypermobility? All I really know to do right now is to pay attention to the mechanics of what I'm doing, making sure joints are aligned correctly with my body before beginning the movement. Any thoughts?
Lindsay@krisannthemum For me: most exercise in water - helps support my joints. I also do reformer Pilates, but only 1-on-1 with an instructor, because my body is very good at 'cheating' and he makes sure I constraint my range of motion. Then PT.
MojosueI recommend Trigger Point Pilates. Yoga, Tai Chi. Stretch, wriggle, dance about. Don't try to 'achieve' exercise .. just keep gentle moving to avoid stiffness.
For aerobic you need to be stable and supported.
