Since beginning this program I started feeling things in my torso that I've never felt before. I thought I had some understanding of filling. I would release the soft tissue and would feel the belly "fill up" and it would feel firm. I could feel a line down the front of my torso but I recently realized I was not feeling anything below the level of the surface. But, when my belly felt full I could not breathe  very deeply. My belly felt too full to be able make room for the breath.Several days ago I started being able the "down the front" in a new way.

I've been training with the Standing for that last two weeks and I have been surprised that my ability to feel what's going on inside. I'll get into that in a different blog entry. What I've found that this stuff is HARD!!!  I was surprised that my neck and upper traps are sore. Also, Im having a hard time doing all of it. I can reliably get the backstop. I can release my left knee cap with no issues but righty doesn't like to let go. I can get the hips nearly into the right position without the legs bending. I've got some stretching to do.
