have you ever notice that if you want to cross your legs in order to dress that you are constantly having to pick up with your arms to lift your leg?well i use to as well but i have found that over time over munch time that i am now able to pick up my leg up without having to use my arm i just lift my leg up and get out of the car or into the car or when i am dressing i just pick up my leg and cross them over to put on my pants it has taken me a very long time to be able to incorporate the use of my leg but over time and munch walking to streathing up my muscle in my leg it has finally allowed me to do it so slow yes like the turtle , but you just remember about the turtle it may be slow but it always win the race and thats why it is such a good animal that is use to define our stroke so don"t sespire if it"s not working for you just find a new way to attack the problem and the brain will be there to help move the muscle like it use to
