To the 70+ members of Integral Strength

Before I start writing to Rob’s reply to my previous post in the FIT section of this pod (Rob its taking me a little longer than normal to reflect what you wrote), I want to know something from the pod.  

What would compel you to contribute to this discussion?  I want learn and understand about others on this path and have this conversation open up to a wide perspective and experience.  

In other discussions at Zaadz I often feel intimidated by the language and perspectives that are offered in these forums.  I don’t want this to prevent others from being a contributing member of Integral Strength.  Although the conversation that Rob and I have engaged in may not resonate with anyone please find a way within this forum to share your own expression of this practice.  

What I like about strength training as a practice and within a FIT context is that this subject is it accessible – pick up a weight with awareness, lift to you reach a limit (any limit, at any level), put it down, rest and reflect on what is going on.  It does deeper than this (which you will find out more if you ask Rob for the FIT pdf).  Even if your experience is as simple as techniques, or as deep as the intent of this pod please open up and explore this subject.

I myself am trying to put strength training practice in perspective with other practices I have engaged in and the experiences within them.  This conversation is important in clarifying this experience of strength training as I have found there is very little information on this subject to guide me along this path of development.

Look forward to this conversation growing

Damon,
Being new to this pod, one of the things that really interested me was the general open-ness of the conversations.  You are right, some of the language in other pods can be intimidating but so far, the regulars here seem very open and informative.

So, keep the good ideas coming!!

peace…
T
