End of Week 1
Today my friend Rico and I stretched together and tried out cool poses we found on Instagram! This is the end of my first week of the challenge! I’ve been stretching everyday and I find it’s becoming addictive! I stretch while watching TV, while outside in the sun, and any random times throughout the day! I went out and bought …
I’m ba-ack! (pun intended)
I don’t have a picture because I was stretching by myself and Ryan is currently using the computer but after a rough start to the challenge, or lack thereof, I FINALLY was able to get in a good stretching session today.

Day 4 – 4/4/2015

We worked on Splits, Over Splits (on blocks and on silks), Splits with back arch, and Chest stands. I also worked on some back bend with splits and played with the “tulip” (see below). Happy Stretching!

I really focused on the dynamic stretches today because I wanted to be fully prepared for the poses and it paid off! I worked on both upper and lower body today. Food …
