10/4/2017 1 Comment week 3- the needle Hello bloggers! This is week three for my blog and I am very excited. Last week I almost accomplished my goal of getting a scorpion. But I ran into a bit of a problem. When I tried to actually do the scorpion I couldn't reach my leg to my head because I didn't stretch out enough. It was very difficult for me to stretch because I simply didn't have any motive too. But this week I am going to tell myself to stretch and simply get up and do that. This week I am going to get my scorpion so that I can come closer to getting my needle. If you get the simple techniques down first then it makes it more easier to get your needle. I have found that when you eat healthier that it makes stretching easier. Your ability to stretch is much more easier and it doesn't pull as much muscle.
When I did my stretches for last week I found that it hurt my back more than my legs. It caused immense pressure on my back and caused it to burn. I did not expect this to happen because when I was doing my split stretches, I was expecting my legs to pull bit instead my lower back had a lot of pain. To stretch my back I am going to do the cat stretch which is putting your knees on the floor and then leaning up and stretching your back. I have also learned that yoga will help with stretching and getting more flexible. I have a yoga mat at home so for my stretches this week I am going to do a lot of yoga. For some more steps in this process of getting a needle I am going to eat healthier, do stretches on Saturday now instead of skipping that day and also coordinate with my cheer-leading coach and stretch. Last week was not a very successful week because I really wanted to accomplish my goal of getting a scorpion but I didn't. I was disappointed in myself that I didn't get that goal last week but this week I am going to make sure I do. I will see you guys next week!
