    Tried these this evening and felt great! I always wanted to ice skate so I started going to the rink near me on days off to learn. I always stretched when I dance but not nearly enough. I’ve been really out of shape and honestly have never been very flexible so I’ll keep trying this every day and hope it will help me! Tbh for anyone reading I’m a much larger person, about 240 pounds, but this is still doable. Wherever I can’t reach I go as far as I can and it’s still effective. So anyone saying they can’t do it just do your best!

    I recently developed the wish of trying out figure skating, even though I'm not very sportive and not really flexible but it just looks so cool and like you're free on the ice. Sadly I'm fifteen so I don't expect much and also I can't find like lessons at my local rink and that really broke me because even though I have an interest for once (haven't really done anything in my childhood so I wasted that time) and now that I want to try it I can't really do it. If I went on my own it would probably be packed and I don't really know what to do. But they only do lessons for children
    Oh I also dance but only around winter and I also dream of getting my splits one day

    I was a figure skater for a few year then a dancer. I’ve gained about 100 pounds partially from chronic illness and partially from depression. I’m hoping to be able to lose weight and start skating again 🥰 wish me luck

    • @rsemlly3287
      @rsemlly3287 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Stretches aren't supposed to hurt excessively if they are hurting a lot don't push yourself and do more simpler stretches or don't push yourself in these stretches as much as you are. You're only supposed to feel a stretch not excessive pain because you can overstretch which will result in you being less flexible
