P90x Stretch

Stretching, activity, and staying in shape as much as possible has always been a priority.
Anything athletic became a complete love affair for me.
Each time my body added another limitation, I shifted into another athletic activity. Whenever my body says "no", I usually push it for a while until I realize that it's a hard "no". My response?
'Fine. I'll do this instead'
The list of activities I've tried is super lengthy. The list of activities my body has kiboshed is now, unfortunately, very lengthy as well. The point though, is to always find something else that I can do. If you just keep the list of activities you have tried longer than the list of activities you cannot engage in, you're winning. If you can still do one activity - no matter how small - you are winning. Flexing your toes while lying in bed. Lifting your arms and leaning to the side while sitting in a wheelchair. Hell, flexing your facial muscles by smiling - that is a win!

Rj wanted to start working with the P90x dvds. He has done it before and had some great success, so he has decided to start up again. Tonight he was going to do the stretching sequence, so I decided to join him.
While I couldn't do everything, and I did flare up my right shoulder blade pretty badly from a surprisingly tough stretch, it was really nice to do a little extra stretching with Rj.

This is something I am hoping to join him in whenever possible. Just that little bit of extra activity - whenever I possibly can.
Keep going.
Keep trying.
