Cathy Tatum: Striving for excellence.

"Cathy T."

Cathy turned 55 this year, been training with us consistently for over a decade, can do things her friends can no longer do. She gets under a bar during a squat clean in the blink of an eye, never thought that would ever be possible again in her lifetime and certainly helps if she slips on ice. No long stories here, just a picture with some yellow lines. She'd be good in rural China waiting for a bus and a few other things. Wasn't that way when she started years ago. Bottom line: Never take an anatomically correct full squat position for granted, it's something we're born with and lose quickly sitting at a desk all day, some may never get it back. Always respect and maintain it if you still have it. Work at it if you can't, within your limitations, because without hip mobility the lower back and knees will be history long before you are, and the beneficiaries of this will be the US Health Care System and Scooter Store.
