So yeah, nothing necessarily dramatic, but you can kind of see a slight difference. I look healthier and my shoulders look broader. And my hair grew. Though, to me, the most outstanding things seem to be that my shoulders are more uneven (thanks, scoliosis!) and that my stomach seems to bulge a little more.
Of course, these are not new. They are not as apparent in the other pictures, and I think that's due to the fact that in general I'm more relaxed now than I was. So, that is actually awesome.
I don't know much about scoliosis, but for a while I've thought that if I was fit then it would go away. Now, I'm not so sure. If scoliosis is genetic and not caused by constantly hunching over for 15 years straight, then I might be screwed.
I asked my mom what fixes scoliosis, wondering if she'd give me an answer other than a brace or the operating table. she didn't.
Still, I wonder, how many people have scoliosis and how many of those people are in shape, let alone in "peak condition"? I suppose some light google searching would reveal the anweres I'm looking for, but I think I'll go make dinner instead - save the research for tomorrow.

The reason your stomach is bulging out is just where you were in your breathing cycle when the photo took. I'll tell you how to make your abs show up later.
ReplyDeleteAs for the scoliosis, getting fit won't make it go away, but it will give you a better chance of building muscle that can compensate and rebalance for what's thrown off by the spinal irregularities.
How about a photo with some muscles flexed?
Hm, you might be right about the stomach, and I figured it would be too much to hope for to expect the new fitness to make the scoliosis go away
