Hey ladies! Tell me, do you have a dream you've been striving for years but just can't seem to achieve? You try hard, you don't give up, but something always gets in the way? Well, I have such a dream! I've been practicing stretching for 6 years. Regularly, diligently, with the hope that one day a miracle will happen and I'll finally be able to do the splits! Although, to be perfectly honest, a miracle did happen once! 😍 It was in 2021. I was working out at the gym and after a session, I decided to check how low I could go in a front split. And then BAM! I WAS ON THE FLOOR! 🤣 My happiness knew no bounds! So many workouts, so many attempts — and there it was, the long-awaited result! And what a pleasure it was to walk down the hallway, casually do a split! People stare, and you're sitting there happy, like you've won an Olympic gold medal! 😂 True, the joy was short-lived. After that day, I haven't been able to repeat my feat even once. And for several years now, I've been trying to regain my lost splits. But I haven't lost hope yet! 😁 Moreover, the front split is far from the limit of my dreams! I desperately want to sit on the floor, spread my legs wide apart, lean forward, and lie my torso on the carpet. Just spread out on it! For me, that would be a real victory! And if I learned to lift my leg to my head, then that's it! Life would be a success! 🤣 But my dream has a pesky opponent — knee joint osteoarthritis, which crept up unnoticed after childbirth and decided to make its own adjustments to my athletic plans. I underwent treatment, did exercises, but didn't get any significant results in terms of pain. Recently, I had hyaluronic acid injections in my knee joints. And after the first injection, real magic happened! It was like I got new legs! Pain-free! I was already mentally preparing to conquer all the splits in the world! 🤣 But after the second injection, the magic seemed to disappear. Now, my knees and I have an unstable relationship: today we're friends, tomorrow they go on strike. ❓ By the way, girls, has anyone had hyaluronic acid injections in their joints? ❓ What was your result? Did it help with the pain, and how long did the effect last? I'm really interested to hear real experiences! Doctors, by the way, look at my dreams of splits very skeptically. And I understand them, of course. But how can you just give up on something you've been working towards for so many years? On a dream for which you regularly trained, endured setbacks, rejoiced at every extra centimeter, and even achieved a result once? Just take and tell yourself: "That's it, no more"? I can't do that. Especially since I've noticed an interesting pattern: if I skip training for a couple of days, everything starts to hurt even more. But after exercises, I gain mobility, it becomes easier to move, and my legs seem to come alive. At least, that's how it is for me. Therefore, I don't want to give up training completely, although I have to choose the load carefully, considering my knees. I also had another athletic dream — to learn how to do a cartwheel! 🤸️ But here, it all ended much faster. A few attempts, vivid fantasies about breaking my neck, and common sense won a convincing victory over enthusiasm. 🤣 So, for now, I've left the cartwheel to the acrobats, but I'm not going to give up on the splits. Although, it seems my knees have a completely different opinion! ❓ And do you have such a dream-dream? ❤️ Not necessarily athletic! Maybe you've wanted to learn something for years, go somewhere, create something, or fulfill a long-held desire, but life constantly throws obstacles in your way? ❓ Or perhaps you've already achieved a dream you've been working towards for years? 😍 Tell us! I'm really curious about what other moms dream about, what prevents these dreams from coming true, and what helps them not to give up! 🥰

Check out Bubnovsky for knee exercises. As for the splits, I managed to do them in a month with regular home workouts with Daria Moroz. Sometimes our desires are achievable much faster than we think!
I had a desire to have breakfast in the city center during the summer for 4 years. It never happened, and now I don't even feel like it anymore. It was such a simple thing, a matter of one day. But the gestalt remains unclosed :(

Bless your knees! 🙏
My dream is to learn to play the guitar... and sing to it in the evenings.
Nobody will appreciate it 🤣🤣🤣, I have a lisp and don't always hit the rhythm (definitely not in karaoke 🤣)
but I really, really, really want to learn!!!.. I'm not learning, something always gets in the way. Plus, I consider myself a bit slow-witted))🤣

I prioritize either dreams or life and health. I had to rethink a lot, exclude some things. I wanted to go to the mountains, to the pool, but instead, I could barely make it to the toilet. Fortunately, things are a little better now, but my dream has been scaled down to walking 200-500 meters on flat ground at once and climbing one flight of stairs, which feels like a huge achievement now 🙈

I always dreamed of being able to do the splits, but now I hear a clicking in my pelvis when I pull my knee towards me 🤣 I once overstretched something during a stretch and it hurt a lot for a long time. So, I guess that dream remains unfulfilled 😥
