We start by changing
how you breathe.
Then we change everything
it holds up.

Strength and conditioning in Back Bay, built on the Postural Restoration Institute framework — training grounded in how your body actually moves, not generic programming.

The vocabulary

Three words we'll keep using.

Respiration

Not "breathing exercises." The mechanism that positions your ribs, spine, and pelvis — every rep, every day.

Position

Where your skeleton actually sits before load goes on it. Position first, then strength.

Pattern

The asymmetry every body shares. Not a flaw — a starting point.

Send your breath
into your back.

1Hands on your lowest back ribs — not your belly.
2Breathe in slowly through your nose.
3Aim the air at your hands. Wide, not big.
4Shoulders quiet. If they lift, you've gone back up.

Field Notes

A letter about how
your body works.
Mechanism, not mysticism.

One a week. Every claim cited — with its limits stated. Ends with the fine print, every time.

Where this page leans on the PRI model: a coherent framework, not a peer-reviewed trial.
