    I could definitely do with some more stretching. I sit at a desk most of the day and find my back really hurts by the end of the week.

    How would you track them and what's the daily activity or goal? :smile:

    I found some charts that I would base it off of that I'm planning on meshing together to make my own. It will be to do certain movements for like a minute a day and ti see the progress you can make. I'll definitely send you them a little later today :)

    Yes please. I am hurting real back, lower back and down my leg. I am not one for stretching, now it is really affecting me. I try and get as much as possible, something I should do every day, before and after walking, but you know how that is.

    I also sit at a desk all day.

    Okay perfect! Yes exactly why I want to do a challenge like this is because a lot of us have sedentary jobs and I think it would be good to just take 5 minutes to focus on stretching and loosening up tight muscles.

    Yes I could definitely use some stretching. I also sit at a desk most of the day. Neck and shoulders get tight a lot. I try stretching some by going to the copier outside my office which is not far at all.

    I'm in. I have printed them ready to use each morning or night. Was going to do them at work but realized my dress clothes won't be great for mobility, har har

    I'm a bit late seeing this, but would love to join. I've been sidelined from training for the last 5 weeks due to labrum tears in both shoulders and extreme arthritis in my right hip. Stretching would be right up my alley.
    How should we be accountable? Logging on this feed daily or is there another place established?

    4-6: Done

    Felt pretty good, but I can tell I haven't stretched for real in quite a while!
