You’re “The Strong One”
Time to Soften and Expand
You’ve got power, resilience and drive — but sometimes strength alone creates hidden imbalances.
If your muscles are working overtime without enough mobility, it can lead to tightness or restricted movement.
Your next evolution isn’t pushing harder… it’s opening up to gain better flexibility by moving smarter.
What this means for you:
You probably enjoy effortful classes and feeling strong, but your body may benefit from more mobility and flexibility to keep everything balanced.
Strength without adequate range can increase tightness and tension — especially in hamstrings, hips, and lower back.
By weaving in intelligent mobility and restorative work, you’ll move better, feel freer, and stay stronger for longer.

How does this happen?
This imbalance develops as some muscles become dominant while others weaken. Everyday activities, posture, and even things like running and cycling can contribute to this continuing muscle imbalance.
Based on the answers you provided in the quiz, you may relate to some or all of the below. The more statements that ring true to your body may show how extreme your muscle imbalance is:
Lack of flexibility
Your mobility is more on the limited side and you generally feel very tight in the hamstrings, as well as perhaps suffering with tight shoulders and/or neck.
Hip extreme!
You find you have tight hips and struggle with sitting cross legged on the floor without feeling like your knees are very high or your hips are tight.
Back pain
You may get lower back ache or pain from being seated for long periods of time. Your lower back is actually on the weaker side compared to your core /front body strength.
Broad shoulders
You likely have broad shoulders naturally or lift weights / considered fairly strong in your upper body. This sometimes leaves you with tightness / tension in your neck and shoulders.
Tight hamstrings?
Your flexibility is really limited, not being able to fold forward with straight legs when seated or standing.
You find balancing on one leg a challenge!
Relatively fit and strong
You are relatively fit. You may cycle or run regularly or lift weights. Yes you are strong. In your core strength, glutes and hamstrings. Strengthening the opposite muscles will actually help you relieve those tight, strong muscles.

"I can now switch on core muscles when cycling, hill walking and swimming and consequently any back pain episodes are negligible and short-lived. My neck and back muscles are stronger which helps counter hours at the keyboard and gives me more confidence in my posture."

"Strength for Life has been little short of life changing for me! Since I started doing them daily just over a year ago lots of the niggling issues I was experiencing from trail running and triathlon training have disappeared. A little everyday, really goes a long way."
Sheena, Triathlete and trail runner

"I was sceptical that just 15 minutes a day would get me working hard enough to feel a benefit, but judging by how sore I am after day 4, it really is!! Love that I can easily squeeze these in first thing before the school run and a day at the desk. It defo starts you off for the day!"

“I can definitely see the difference. I’m stronger, I’m building muscle - it’s an all-round transformation in my arms, my legs, my tummy… and best of all, I’m not getting as much back pain as I used to. "
Sarah, Paris
