No , it doesn't . Here is what i know
do not let you knees go past your toes when squating -
how to do this. You weight is in your heels and in your butt. As you go down --look staight out - not down or up. This helps keep you back in a neutral position. ( not curved, but not stiff) Abs should be pulled in . No bounce. slow and control. I riase my arms to shoulder height as I go down.
If you walk a lot or stand a lot, 50 is not that hard. So I am guessing that why you can do 70, bonny. Even though I have done bigger sets. I find that after 30 - they get sloppy feeling . So I figure it makes sense to brake them into sets. The first set is always hard, but then again I am doing it about 10 - 15 minutes out of bed.
what has been interesting is that some days I feel them , some time s stiff , sometimes sore, but some days I don't feel them at all. no rhyme or reason that I can track
Holy Cow, Frank, so glad you made it out okay, so sorry about your landlord. I hope transitioning to a new place is as easy as possible for you and that things come together as smoothly as possible. Much peace to you.
The new version of fitbit that you can wear on your wrist is now available for order, but it is already back ordered, so it will take a few weeks to come in. I just ordered mine, and I know some people here expressed interest in getting one, so I thought I'd mention it.
I called my mental health line for my insurance provider and was given three new names of possible therapists. So, not it is just a matter of calling my current therapist and telling her I'm not coming back. She's just done too many things that I find to be upsetting as well as made me feel like she is judging me. I kept crying on and off all weekend. The person on the phone for my health care provider was very nice. He is a therapist also and gave me some tips for choosing someone new.
Ugh, that's tough sj. When I fired my psychiatrist, I just cancelled my appointment and sent a letter explaining what the issue was and why I no longer wished to be his patient.
Thanks for the link le n.
I guess I was doing them right...which I'm sure will come back to bite me when I get up to 100 and am stiff 'n sore.
Maybe it is because I DO stand at my computer all day and walk the dog...and do them late in the day before bed.
Also, the 70 were after a day of rest, so my muscles were fresh.
In any case, I'm glad to have stuck with the program and am looking forward to feeling all accomplished and stuff when I make it to the end of the challenge.
Poor Frank!
I'm so glad that you are okay and totally lament your loss. May this incredibly scary and tedious transition bring you good things.
Good job, you...sj.
Making the decision to correct your course (in the nautical sense) is one of the greatest displays of courage, to my way of thinking.
I hope the next therapist you interview is the right one, but if not, I know you will eventually find what you need. Cheers!
Frankenbuddha, that's horrible! I'm sorry about your landlord, and I hope finding a new place goes well for you. That is some scary shit.
sj, I hope your next therapist is much better suited to your needs and personality.
I should do the squat program with a focus on wide leg squats - those work the inner quad, right? I need to balance out.
