The Not so Daily Privateer

Yoga Day 13

Did Sun Salute routine in backyard:  Mountain, Triangle (two times) and Chair (two times).  Did firelog while fixing the computer (for at least 2 minutes).  I'm about to do one more cycle of the Sun Salute before heading to the grocery store.  I find alternating between stretching and then walking to warm up those muscles is really advantageous.

I want to do the rest of my routine later and plan out the next week's course of action.

Did one more cycle of Mountain, Triangle, Chair - was able to hold Triange and Chair for 15 seconds each.

Also did Firelog, Garland (in bath), Staff, Bound Angle regular and reclining, Hero and Child Pose.

Yoga Day 12

I think I've done parts of my Sun Salute every day for 12 days - and it's really helping.  I still have lots of pain, tightness down the outer side of my left leg, but it's clearly related to a number of subsystems - the QL, of course (which is much better) but also to hamstrings and to tendons and muscles in my ankles, toes and calves, as well.

I did a Bound Angle reclining close for sure, as well, and think I worked in several other poses.  I know I did Mountain, Triangle and Chair - those seem to be my basics.  Both the Triangle and the Chair are very very hard for me, not getting easier yet.  Did Garland in water.

Oh, also got down on all fours but only managed Cat Pose, nothing else.

Day 11

Got up early to do Sun Salute, Triangle, Mountain, Triangle, Chair, Triangle, Mountain - etc.  I'm getting the hang of that part!  I also added ONE forward bend there.

Then I did the Cat pose, Firelog (very good one to do), Staff pose (another excellent one for the morning), Bound Angle, and Staff.

I intend to do more.  That was about 10 minutes worth.
