Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Can't do puppy or dolphin - it's the same issue.

You're not hijacking - discussion is brilliant.
75% is fine for now. Just do what feels ok and with a bit of luck (and practice) stuff will get easier.

I'm going to do Day 2 soon and will check out any issues I think you might have.

I'll let it percolate in my head while I'm on my run in a bit...

Something for you to play with:

--Start in table top (hands and knees as if going to do cat/cow)

--then slowly ease/drop butt back towards your heels into extended child's pose (arms still out in front of you).

--Stop when your arms/shoulders start complaining. Or get used to the sensation...to enable the fascia and scar tissue to slowly ease off. Note not pain or sharp feeling, just resistance.

--Mark it and use it as a starting position, then slowly work on it a little each day to see if you can go a little further down by tiny degrees.

That's really helpful, thanks, Garfield. And quite similar to what the physio suggested, which was to put my hands on a desk and walk backwards.

Great, Garfield!

I find extended child's pose easy enough to do but can REALLY feel it if that makes sense? Unlike folded child's pose which is all curled up and restful.

Day 2 done here and it was as good as ever. Various sections are far more strenuous than expected but it's better that than finding it easy. Why do I find it so difficult to have prolonged weight on my wrists and why do I always find Downward Dog tiringly difficult? Is this to be expected or is it just me?

About This Thread

Maintained by Sharkie
In January 2016 fraggle decided to follow Adriene (of Yoga with Adriene fame -only she wasn't 'quite' so famous back then). It was the start of Adriene's second 30 Days of Yoga and fraggle started a thread and asked anyone interested to join in. I did, I completed the 30 days and I got a PB fpr my 60 metres at the end of it so it was certainly not detrimental....

ANYWAY

Fancy joining in with this year's 30 day programme - 'Home'?

Here's the link to Adriene's site, the link for 'Home' is right at the top
