Tragic Zilling Accident

Huzzab — Sun, 11 Nov 2007 19:48:22 GMT

Ugh. Look away! Overzealous beginner hurts herself. What I learned the hard way: 1) Warm up with some wrist circles or slow zilling to start. 2) ~Gently~ stretch your wrists, fingers and thumb. 3) Try to keep your arms and wrists as relaxed as possible (palms down) especially when you are starting out. You can get fancy later. I kept twisting my arms and wrists into funny contortions (palms up) and that's how I hurt myself. 4) The muscle energy for zilling is coming from the forearm, just south of the elbow. Be aware of strain in this area, don't overdo it and give yourself a little massage when you are done. 5) Happy zilling!

Posture Before and After

Gailene (Zamira) — Wed, 21 Feb 2007 03:15:38 GMT

Before shows how most of us stand around, knees straight, abdomen forward, buttock out, pelvis tipped 'down' and back. After shows a posture that protects the back, engaging the abdominal muscles so that they support the back. Knees are soft or slightly bent, pelvis is rotated forward and 'up'. Notice how straight the lumbar (lower) back is.

Almost looks like the figure in the diagram is doing a hip slide, except the hips aren't even.
