surge_supra Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Yes, it does sound dumb but...I CAN TOUCH MY TOES!!!I have never been able to do that!!! I came into this six week challenge very late (just two weeks to go) but I had been working on my challenge before I even found Nerd Fitness (so lucky!). And now....I can touch my toes!!

kketterman Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 That is wonderful and it doesn't sound dumb at all. It is something you should be very proud of especially since you've only been doing it for two weeks. =) Quote KK, level 1 Land Nymph. Assassin at heart, training with the AdventurersSTR 3|DEX 2|STA 2|CON 1|WIS 4|CHA 3 ]“Would you like me to give you a formula for success? It’s quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure. You are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn’t at all. You can be discouraged by failure or you can learn from it. So go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because remember that’s where you will find success.†— Thomas J. Watson Link to comment

TheRedWriter Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 In all honesty, I really don't think it sounds dumb at all. I have a good friend right now who cannot touch his toes or do many other physical activities simply because he has grown morbidly obese, and I know for a fact that he'd be very happy to be able to do so. I salute you for being brave enough to mention something like that (particularly if you were expecting others to consider it dumb!) and still posting it here anyway, and more importantly, for reaching that milestone! Way to go, and keep it up! Quote TheRedWriterLevel 3 Doppelganger Ranger "Think not that you have to win. Think instead that you do not have to loose."

snowMan Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 This doesn't sound dumb. In fact, quite the opposite; you should be proud of yourself for making positive, healthy changes. Good job my friend! Quote Link to comment

surge_supra Posted December 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Thanks again all! The support means a lot. And will do Porkchop! I'll need help with designing a workout for the next challenge I think.

BeastMistres Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Not dumb at all. That is actually still a relatively hard thing for me to do, and I'm not overweight. The backs of my legs are just really tight, all the time. Yoga has helped. But seriously, way to go.

The backs of my legs are just really tight, all the time. Yoga has helped. But seriously, way to go.Same problem was what I overcame. I'm only 125lbs (just lost 5!) and I've been so terribly inflexible that I've never been able to touch my toes. Thanks again for all of the congratulations!

ionAurum Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Well done! I, sadly, cannot. Perhaps I'll make that a New Year's challenge goal...
