♡ Yoga with Adriene Yoga for Sciatica

I'm an idiot! The whole time I was looking for workouts to help with my back pain, I didn't think to look in the programs. I found the Back & Core program. I'll probably start it Monday, since my sister comes over late on Sundays. Between grocery shopping and making/eating dinner, after I'm done with the chores and other things I need to do, I'm usually left with little time to even do yoga. And this Sunday we have to make an extra shopping trip, anyway, so that cuts into the time even more. But I'm happy I found it!

♡ Vitality Day 1, 3 sets
♡ Back & Core Day 1
♡ Yoga with Adriene Healthy Body Yoga
♡ 1.13 Mile "Walk" on step machine

I probably could have done more on Vitality, but I figured with Back & Core having that many sets, I would be too exhausted if I did any more. I was right. It was a lot, but it was nice.

Dad got a full release from his doctor, but his work is not letting him go back. He had to go to another doctor and do tests that even I couldn't do without wobbling. He showed us what he did and he did pretty well. He had me so it and I wobbled. Dad told his physical therapist about it, and he said they had him do things opposite of the way you're supposed to. The physical therapist said he couldn't do those things without wobbling, either.

♡ Vitality Day 4
♡ Back & Core Day 4
♡ Yoga with Adriene 10 Minute Full Body Stretch

I don't know if it's because I'm so tired, but I could only do one set of Back & Core's exercises today. I struggled even doing what I did. I have plans of doing this program pretty regularly, so I'm not too concerned with not being able to do it exactly as it is. Especially since I have to modify exercises to begin with. I'm not strong at normal side planks at all, let alone the star ones.

Both can be done from the knee, as necessary.

(Pocket Yoga doesn't have an image for it. But side plank can be done with the knee down and top leg floated as well--depending on one's ability.)
