Update.
Feb 19th
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 the way down, and my left split goes down every time but I still have to push it down a little. I’m waiting for my split to feel like nothing when I stretch it so that I can move on to oversplits!
I’m planning on adding more to the ‘exercises’ part of this blog soon, because I found some really good back stretches.
This weekend is going to suck. I have 3 tests to study for, one that is due on Sunday because it’s for an online class. But it’s gonna be quiet in my house so I can actually concentrate. I dunno what’s wrong with me; I’m having the hardest time focusing and getting my ass in gear to study. I still need to do really well this semester for when I transfer, even though they won’t see my grades until I get accepted and have to send my transcripts :/ Anyway, time to read my math book so I can understand it in class.
New Stretches!
Jan 29th
Well I tried those new stretches…feels good! I can really tell the difference between upperback/shoulders and mid back. I need to work on my splits more so that I can start backbending with splits. I did the ‘pigeon’ pose for the first time..I’ve been kinda doing it for a while but I wouldn’t twist my knee so that my thigh was on the floor. Anyway I can do my left side well of course because I’m a lefty but I need to work on my right side. I think if I just keep doing that stretch along with cobras and elbow stands against a wall…and maybe some bridges haha. I want to start stretching my neck a bit too since it doesn’t go back as far as some people. Anyway just wanted to give you a quick update; time for dinner! Hopefully I will post some new pictures before February.
