same old, but different.

one of the pointers from long ago that is getting some use is:

when crunching, focus on the distance between the pubic bone and the xiphoid process.

keep the neck straight.

on the ball the distance is increased as one bends backwards over the ball.

trying to reckon how much wood we have burned, will burn this season.

like to get the order delivered in april so i can take my time moving and stacking it.

3-4 cord

got it done yesterday, but didn't post.

probably because i spent so much time making dinner.

eggplant parm is not difficult, but time consuming and messy.

got it done today, too.

kinda fun to use the ball.

the move with the forehead on the ground and the feet as high as possible without rolling over is nice.

erector spinae ...

Friend of mine said his chiropractor gave him a video & ball to use for his back.... he said he really hadn’t been to a chiropractor since... stupid move on chiro!

[fish]

i have never been a chiropractor fan, although when i was working and had clients who had tried everything else, i'd recommend they try one.

sometimes the magic worked.

i know folks who swear by them.

i know folks who swear at them.

i have never gone to either a chiro or a DO because i don't want anyone trying to manipulate my spine.

i think i sent you the list of things wrong with it.

my NC had bad experiences with both chiro and DO.

i just get a kick out of the term "arthrosis" = old man's arthritis.

that said, if your friend's chiro gave advice that had good results and cost the chiro business, well, that's a good one.

i have a 65 cm ball and i keep it pretty well firm.

lying on my back the ball creates a curve with full support.

things are going pretty well, but something somewhere always has a level of discomfort.

perhaps it has always been that way, but when young, one does not automatically attribute it to the aging process.

anyway, got my exercise done today.

indian clubs are indispensable.

looked up your suggestion.

interesting.

thanks, we'll see.

in the meantime since i am on a course of antibiotics and an antifungal i have dialed back the aerobic to walks on the beach.

still doing the stretching, ball, clubs, and cane.

it would be nice to know what is going on with the old bod.
