In my pajamas bottoms and my favorite CM Punk shirt, I decided to record my progress. The Vascular Surgeon told me my body has entered a state of "Deconditioning" which explains the muscle atrophy or reduction is muscle mass, weakness, constant injuries from trying to pick up where I left off before the nightmare breast … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 49

The Curveballs of Live Keep Coming
Last week I went in to get X-Rays of both hips (recommended by my physical therapist)due to the pain from doing my physical therapy stretches for those hypertonic (tight) pelvic muscles and on the recommendation of my chiropractor, got an X-Ray of my back due to some back pain that wasn't going away.

As I mentioned, as of July 18th, I have not exercised due to to the hypertonic or tight pelvic floor muscles. A huge disappointment as I was starting to feel stronger each day.

Fitness Check In Day 44
I am super disappointed to have missed checking in since last Thursday. The day prior to my birthday I was in decent spirits, waiting to turn 48 years old and then Friday hit.

Today I attempted to do quick 40 minute Vinyasa Yoga session.

With all the issues I have been having with … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 43

Fitness Check In: Day 39
Again today, I woke up in good spirits, raring to go and then as the day went on, I was slowly diving into worry mode over a few things that we all worry about from time to time.
