Oh! I forgot again, only just realised when I saw this thread again. Better do my 55 now. Bethan, so it actually works then?
Ps, Val no I dont think you jump. Well Im not anyway, Im probably doing it wrong lol but its just bending with the arms out and you increase the amount you do by each day, with odd rest days.

I know I wouldn't manage one of these, my knees are so bad I would never get up again.

Best of luck to those supple enough to try tho

I'm on day 28 and so pleased it's a rest day tbh it's not too bad, some days you just feel like not bothering . I have noticed a difference as that area is my problem zone lol I'm thinking of doing a mixture challenge after this for 30 days :-D

You're joking!!!!!!!!!! Not on your Nellie thank you :-D :-D

If the clicking of knees didn't deafen me, the screams when the back went certainly would!!
