Here are my fifth and final (for the money I've paid thus far) pictures. I was trying to stand up straight here, unlike in my fourth batch of pictures. I think I look straighter in the side views. The front view still throws me because of my twited ribcage - I guess I never knew it looked like that! It's the result of a spinal fusion done for scoliosis when I was 14 years old.
Here are Paul's comments on these photos:
Alternate this menu daily with your last menu. Looking better than the last "relaxed" photos in the side views. Hips are staying underneath you much better. The shoulder rounding is still something to work on - taking breaks as needed with your busy work-schedule. Still need to get more of the torsion out of your hips-knees-feet to affect the noise in the knees. If you'd like to, let's get on Skype to discuss any of the e-cises. Keep up the consistency.
And here is my fifth Menu to start on:
#/Sets/Duration/E-cise
1. 1 25 Standing Elbow Curls
2. 2 40 Standing Arm Circles
3. 1 0:01:00 Standing Overhead Extension
4. 1 40 Supine Foot Circles & Point/Flexes
5. 1 00:01:00 Supine Calf & Hamstring Stretch
6. 1 0:01:00 Assisted Hip Lift
7. 2 10 Hand-Leg Opposite Glides
8. 1 10 Hand-Leg Opposite Lifts
9. 1 00:02:00 Static Extension
10. 3 10 3-Position Toe Raises
11. 1 0:02:00 Airbench
12. 1 0:05:00 Wall Drop
To be honest, I have not done any Egoscue ecises for a WEEK! I just got this menu three days ago, and tomorrow I will start back on my daily ecise-ing. My heel pain has increased during this break from the Egoscue, so I look forward to seeeing that diminish again. We'll also find out if my left foot will ever come back in to center!
