As I am currently staring down the prospective barrel of a discounted gym membership (because they always have those deals around New Year’s), I realized the other night that I could not touch my toes from a seated position on the floor, legs stretched out in front of me, so maybe I’m not the best person to be giving anyone health or wellness advice, but I’ve never been a “resolutions” type of person anyway.
