I am doing my absolute best with these new exercises but OMG is it hard. Asma is helping with encouragement and cheering for me, but I'm feeling very fed up with it!! I have to push myself to the limit every single day to manage the prescribed 10 repetitions, and it doesn't leave any energy for fun or going out or other projects :(

on top of that, exercises are supposed to get easier as your muscles develop. you must be doing them in a very Zen way.

I think my back IS strengthening up a bit, but that's not why they're hard so it doesn't help much :/

I'm working on being zen!

I've found some exercises are better when done to music, or at least rhythmic sounds.

Yay you for keeping it up even though it's hard!

do you think you should talk to your doctor about how hard the exercises are? maybe the program zie gave you is an average one, but you'd get more benefit by starting with a less taxing level of exercise and building up slowly.
