Day # 23
Workout/Rest Day Summary:
Today I did all 6 of my lower back and leg stretches three times, in the morning, evening, and at night. I did my middle back stretches once around midday.

That's still all I'm allowed to do for now, so it's feeling very repetitive. I want to do more, but don't want to ignore my chiropractor's advice. At least my back is starting to feel better, so maybe I'll be back to doing other exercises before too long.

Day # 25
Workout/Rest Day Summary:
I forgot to post last night, so this is for yesterday. I did all of my lower back and leg stretches three times, once in the afternoon, once in the evening, and once before bed. I did my middle back stretches once in the afternoon.
 
I'm literally so dumb, I start up an exercise routine and do it for like two weeks, then some big stuff comes up (I had to move out of my dorm and go visit family for thanksgiving in the same week) and I completely forget to do it.

no worries though! I've downloaded a fitness app which will remind me to do exercises every day, not to mention me still doing the daily plank/push-up/sit-up measurement. hopefully this time i dont forget, especially since now im not in school so I can actually do stuff I want to do with no interruptions.

I'm not gonna do these every day, but I can say that yesterday I started working towards building my core/arm strength again. my current goals are to slim my waist and be able to do floor push-ups without using my knees. I'll get there!!

Despite the holiday, I still found time to do my exercises. I did all of my lower back and leg stretches three times, once when I woke up, once after returning from my parents' place, and once before bed. I did my middle back stretches once before bed.

I've noticed that I'm getting more limber. I'm able to pull my legs in closer to my body and hold them on the bed longer with less tension.
 
Day # 31
Workout/Rest Day Summary:
I was feeling very lazy Christmas morning so I skipped my exercises. I did all of my lower back and leg stretches two times today, once in the evening and once before bed. I did my middle back stretches once in the evening.

My back has been feeling quite a bit better, though. So I don't think skipping one set of stretches this one time will hurt anything.
