I have a number of yoga/Pilates/Hippie friends. Turns out, moving a quarter-inch will actually cause you to sweat and make you feel tons better..

Blah blah blah… Shoulder surgery rehab. (Welcome.)

So, my physical therapist says that I should lift my hand up.

I say: Bullshit.

She convinces we to try. My heart rate ramps up. Sweat drips from my hairline.

A quarter-inch: Ow (but in a good way.)

Hey, that feels beeter.

Namaste.

(But i’ll never put on yoga pants… Eww.)
