Well I don’t really have anything new to report.  I’m gonna start oversplits on Thursday though!  On my left side anyway.  It feels ready.  I almost have no feeling at all when I get into my left split…awesome. 
As for backbending; it’s coming along.  Now that I’ve gotten back into my regular groove I think I’ll [...]

Stretching has been going well.  Finally!  I really like this alternating legs/back routine.  I feel like it’s really helping my flexibility.  I can now touch the bottoms of my feet to my head in a cobra!  I’m doing back stretching today so I’ll take a pic of this.  I almost have my right split all [...]

Well I stretched my back today.  It feels fine!  I just took it slow and only stretched for about an hour.  My bridge is closer and my backbend in a pigeon is better than my vid from a few days ago!  Amazing.  I’m gonna try to stick with this off/on routine. 
Haha, for my bio 2 [...]

After thinking about my last post and what has happened today…I think I just need to chill and LISTEN TO MY BODY.  If I’m not feeling up to par, then I rest.  That’s it.  I think I might start doing alternating stretch days like legs one day and then backbending the next day…I know some [...]
