So we’re another week into July, and I’m going to share my week 2 of my #JourneytoSplits progress (see my July goals for details).
First let’s look at a comparison of the five foundation stretches, which I’m completing everyday.
Foundation Stretch 1
Foundation Stretch 2
Foundation Stretch 3
Foundation Stretch 4
Foundation Stretch 5
In some of these, I don’t think the progress is as visible as what I’m feeling…such as being able to rest my head on my knee for more time in stretches 2 and 3. It’s amazing what 10 minutes each day will do.
In addition to these five every day, here are the additional poses.
Day 8
Day 9 – Garland Pose
Day 10
Day 11
Day 12
Day 13 – Seated Forward
Compare it to my seated forward on Day 10 of #TheStretchProject.
Day 14
With a few of these, I was really surprised that I was able to hold the stretch for a full minute; Day 14, for example, was no joke. I can feel my abs getting stronger.
And I have a bonus photo for you; the Mister getting kisses from Paige while he was doing his stretches.
