Yesterday was my first day committed to stretching. Ive committed to stretching 2-3 hours per day with 1 day off in the week. Yesterday, I did 1.5 hours of stretching. I have a stretching plan and realized going through it that it is extremely long. I did a brief version of all lower body stretches, not including back or shoulder …

Here is a still shot form a video I recorded of myself trying to get into poses. Let’s increase the flexibility! (this was after stretching of course)
Work on my back flexibility. This is a photo of week 2 of my training and I’m here to have support and get some good tip to improve myself! XX Tartine
