==================================== 
Home Physical Therapy - Spondylolisthesis BJJ
Monday 10/22/2017.

I was ill for parts of October which made me slack off and skip my ab workouts earlier this month.  One week I had a sinus infection and then the next week I had an ear infection in both ears.  I still continued to do my 2 30 minute walks each week day.  Finally back at it today.  I really need to change up my workout again as I've been doing the same or similar workouts for the past several weeks.  

Warmup - Side to side crunches

3 sets of 30 seconds each.



Hip ups

3 sets of 30.  Lift my hips up into air with a side twist.



Side Crunches:


3 set each side for 45 seconds.  I tried lifting my feet up off the ground as well in order to try to get more contraction.


Hamstring Stretch:
3 sets for 1 minute each.





Plank. 

3 sets for 90 seconds each.  All 3 sets were from the elbows. 


Figure Four Stretch: 
3 Sets each leg 60 second hold


Hamstring door stretch 

3 sets of 1 minute stretch each leg.  Total of 3 minutes stretching per leg. 

Also while doing the hamstring door stretch I did a neck exercise. I lifted my head off the ground and turned my chin side to side shoulder to shoulder for 1 minute.  For the 2nd set I bring my head straight up and down.  3rd set I make a circle. 

3 sets of 1 minute each. 



Bridges with pelvic tilt hold.  3 sets of 35 reps where I press my low back into the table I hold the pelvic tilt and bridge lifting my hips off the table.    



Pelvic tilts:  

 
While lying on the floor I did a 5 minute pelvic tilt hold.  Occasionally I would relax back to normal for a seconds and then go back to the tilt hold.  This was for 5 minutes.
