April Challenge

oliviaguerrero01

Hey so I really want to start a challenge on April 1st that will just be to help keep my body guessing and achieve my goals. Does anyone want to do this together as a community and we can help keep each other accountable? [post edited by MFP moderators]

Cool thanks for the link. I've never really done yoga before and need to be better about stretching. This should be good for my hips ( completely shattered my pelvis a few years ago and have huge screws in them) as I am limited to some things I can do comfortably. Look forward to this one.

Oh man, I'm sorry you shattered your pelvis. Yes, I definitely am excited for this challenge and I really hope it does great things for you!

Thanks for checking around to make sure no one is self advertising I can understand how frustrating that is. But its not a sales pitch, I just really want to do a stretching challenge and I'm sharing the link to it.

I'm uncomfortable linking my email with this challenge, so stick to posts on the MFP site, if that's ok. You asked us to introduce ourselves. I'm Sheila from southern CA, and I've been consistently working out a few months. I have some strength, but zero flexibility. I took a yoga class today, and it showed me how tight I am. This challenge will be great, and I hope to stick with it past April. I neeeed to stretch!

I'm in. I need to stretch more. Hoping this will keep me accountable.

Day 1 of the challenge starts today!! Happy April 1st!! Make sure everyone does their stretches for the amount if time required

SheilaCali

Day #1 done. Did some foam rolling too. Did these between house chores- nice way to relax a while, now back to business!

We are almost a week in!! How is everyone feeling?

It's amazing how slooooow 30 seconds seems to feel. Some stretches are tougher than others, but sometimes I'll release the hold for a few seconds, then finish the 30. It's good, and I feel like such a pro having the bottom chart memorized already. More flexible yet? No, but I will be by April's end.
