I woke up yesterday morning and it was a fight with my legs! I tried dangling them over the side of my bed as Phil has told me to and it was quite difficult! I was REALLY slow getting ready for work and it was SO cold! I am SO tired of this weather! I tweeted about it.
My body STILL was hurting at work. I made it through the day and was glad that I was headed to Barwis. I told Phil that this was round 3. Round 1 was getting ready for work. Round 2 was going to the bathroom at work. And now Phil was going to stretch me, so it was round 3 “Ding, Ding.” I thought of Jesse making the analogy of me having an “accident” every day. For this “accident,” I totaled my car, flipped it over, and broke all the windows in it as well. Man, it hurt!
Gradually, my legs started to loosen up. Phil patiently stretched me and then he told me to head to the Keiser machine and we would try some stands. He set my feet and told me to stand. “First is the worst and second is the best.”. That saying held true for each one of my stands. It was a fight to stand and it was very tiring. But for a couple of my stands it felt really good! I stood for a long time and so Phil was happy with that and on my last stand I found the “sweet spot” and I could “stand for days.” Phil stretched me out a little bit more and pushed me over to the chairs where my coat was. I kept my legs up the entire time! When we went out to the car, I got into it all by myself. Mostly. Phil had to help me with my feet and I asked him why it was happening now? Referring to my body hurting so badly. He said that it might be weather shock considering it was 40 degrees when I left Barwis. Let’s hope that when the weather improves, so will my body. We fist bumped (another normal one) my hands are very small compared to his and he said I did some good stands.
It kinda stinks that the fight began again when I woke up this morning… COME ON SPRING!!!
