More "How I Did It" stories
How I did it: Honestly, all it took was to join the cross country team at my school. Everyday we would run around the track once and then stretch, then we would run a mile or two and stretch again. Soon enough, I was able to touch my toes. I never thought I'd be able to. I was the least flexible person I'd ever met. I could barely get my hands halfway down my shins, and even that would hurt. If I can do it, anyone can. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I took ballet lessons for from i was 3 years old till i was around 11 or 12, and I remember not being able to strech that far the first couple of years and also it kind of hurt, but I guess i learned cause now I have no problem touching or even grabbing around my toes with my legs streched out.

This isn’t going well. I’m trying to get closer but it just isn’t working!
I’ve been stretching nearly everyday for the past three weeks. I’ve noticed an improvement, but does anyone else have really long legs? lol.

Been trying to practice. Hope me working out more often will get me to this goal.

Well I’ve been stretching almost every day and I’ve made a lot of progress. I’m hoping to get down to the toes early next year.
It’s been another few weeks of a painful back to remind me that my daughter is way to old to be getting picked up off the floor all the time. But being sore to bend has meant I’m rarely bending and so I decided to give it a test. Blah, I’m like a little old lady. There’s like 130 degrees between my head and my toes before I feel pain, but I can get there. Touching toes from a sitting position though, just can’t get that to happen.
So, to be more specific, this goal will be completed when: I can touch toes from a sitting position, knees straight, ankles together.
I stretched a little every day since I added this goal (two weeks ago?) and now I can just touch my toes. It really hurts to do though, so I’m not marking this done yet ^^;

I’ve been able to do this my whole life. Not an issue unless I’m having bad back problems.

TheLostPhish asks,
“Some people do this naturally, Is it possible that some people are simply never meant to be able to touch their toes? My Mum can't touch her toes, neither can my sister, maybe it's a family thing.”
