No Strain... and Yet Gain?? (Includes a Feldenkrais Lesson)

Strain, working hard, efforting, stretching... that's all necessary to make gains, right? Right?
Ok, really, how much strain is necessary for improvement?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to tell you to not use your muscles and your power and develop strength (you're free to do as you choose, of course!)
What I would like to do is guide you to freer movement without using these old ways of exercising.
We will make gains not by working harder, but by working smarter.
