Adapting Under Load
When pressure stays, the body often survives by bracing: jaw set, shoulders fixed, breath held tight. The load may not change, but the way it is carried can. Small moments of softening let strain spread more evenly, making room for movement, adjustment, and steadier endurance.

Grounded and even, the same calm weight on every line, present without pushing, steady when the moment isn't.
