Pain In Both Knees
This morning I experienced pain in both knees and the best reason I can think of for this is the stretching I was doing yesterday on the bed while watching tennis is not the best for me. Pain in both knees at the same time is unusual as I have never experienced this before so…
Lower Back Pain

Brachiordialis & Brachialis

Tanita Scales Table & Leg Exstentions
While doing squats today I gave my Tanita Composite scales tables that I have been completing since 6-1-15 to one of the instructors as he was curious about the differing results that I have been getting. I am aware that measurements will normally be taken once a week but if my weight differs by as…
