Hello everyone…I should be studying for my first calc test but I made time for you   I have not been able to stretch much, just because I’ve been busy.  I don’t have anything planned until March now soooo I only have stretching and school on my mind.  I just did legs today.  It’s really hard to follow this leg/back switch off days routine!  I want to stretch my back everyday but that will probably bother it.  I feel like I am missing out on valuable stretching time by skipping out…but then it’s like why am I rushing?  Just because it’s exciting to get to a higher level. 

Anyway..I’m gonna try to stick to it…no promises on the weekends though because I have more time.  I think I’m gonna try a new leg stretch on Friday or perhaps tomorrow..I don’t really have a problem with stretching middles everyday.  I was gonna get two chairs and do middles on the cushy part….ow.  Oh well I’ll get flatter faster.

Ok now I really have to study.  Since I can’t figure out how to write in Russian on here…das vidanya!

Happy 4 months of contortion training to me!  Haha.  Well I’ve had a lot of ups and downs in these past few weeks but I think if I just take it slow, I’ll be fine   Looking forward to improving a lot in this next month!  Here’s what I want to focus on:

-getting left and right splits totally flat

-backbend further in a pigeon stretch or in a split when I get those flat

You know what would be really handy?  Stall bars!  Or even this stretch gym apparatus:

I just want SOMETHING to be able to help me do backbends; even if it was just that slanted pole.  It’s hard to use furniture sometimes and harder to just put your hands on the floor on either side of you and push back.    One day.

Well I haven’t stretched in two days :O  We’ve been painting and going through boxes from moving.  I’m currently waiting for my food to digest before I start stretching tonight.  Yay!  My muscles feel…bored is the best way to describe it I guess ahha.  Unused maybe.  I’ll add to this blog after I’ve stretched if I can do anything new!
