Between being a full-time student and working full-time I barely have time to fit in exercise. But, as many of you know, proper stretching and certain exercises benefit (at least in my experience) people with scoliosis more than just a quick workout. A normal workout would probably take an hour but when I add in scoliosis specific exercises and stretching it turns into a 2 hour workout. I do not want to do just the stretching and exercises for scoliosis because then my other muscles aren't getting worked and I'm not getting in any cardio. How do you balance both? Do you do things for your scoliosis everyday and lighten up on the rest? Do you still see average workout benefits from that? The one time I felt my best I did a 1/2 hour of pilates/stretching/abs in the AM, lifted for an hour at the gym in the afternoon, did cardio for an hour at the gym at night, stretched at the gym for 20 minutes after cardio, did 15-20minutes of PT recommended stretches before bed at night. I felt great but devoted around 3 hours a day to my health. I do not have that kind of time anymore and my back and "health" are suffering because of it.
What's the best way to balance it all?
Thanks,
