Donna,
Have you tried the Hips and Knees segment from Jessica's Gentle Yoga for Balance, Flexibility and Mobility? I really like that one when my hips are acting up! Also, Stacy McCarthy's Yoga Body:Hip Opening Flow is another good one works that area, too! Whenever I'm in a lot of pain I reach for Lee Holden's Qi Gong or Classical Stretch. Lee has a one minute Sciatica Pain Relief video on YouTube. As well as lower back workouts that might be beneficial. Do you have his 30 minute Challenge DVD? Some nice short workouts in this! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NaBiuuBTRo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acAglmpXYYQ

Today was just my Goodwill day. We only went to two Goodwills. I found a couple of short sleeve workout shirts. The pair of jeans didn't fit, so I need to take them back. I don't know why I bought it, but I got the Firm Body Sculpting Basics with Susan Harris. I might have bought it once before and returned it, lol. I could get past the 80's style, but I think the workout moves too fast for me. If no one wants it on Share the Wealth, back to Goodwill it goes.
I am going to try and do some stretching tonight, and try to relax. I have my appointment tomorrow morning with the cardiac nurse about my sonogram. With my extreme white coat syndrome, they have to take my word for it with my bp readings at home. I'm glad that they are able to check my heart and confirm it. But I'm still a bit nervous. Pam, I hope warmer weather is on it's way. Thanks for the video links, and recommendation of Jessica's Gentle Yoga. My piriformis acts up sometimes, and other times I think it's my SI Joint. Liz, I have to admit I would like a change from the rotation. I do like the workouts, but I think six days of this intensity is too much for me. I need to dial it down a bit. But I do like the workouts and will still do them periodically. I think I need some boxing gloves, it sounds like it would make you punch harder. Donna, I have to massage my glutes and piriformis periodically, along with stretching. Sometimes it's my piriformis that hurts, and sometimes something in my lower back, maybe my SI Joint. It's always my right side. I find that stretching by itself isn't enough, I have to massage also. I use a massage bar that has two hard balls on it, so it might be similar to yoga tune up balls. I can really target the sore muscle with the massage bar, more than with the foam roller. I did a search and found this you tube video. https://youtu.be/vVEiz_tZjN4 What she does at the 6:30 minute mark is how I use the massage bar on my glutes. I sit on the balls and roll on them, like a foam roller. If I do my stretching regularly, and massage every couple of days, it relieves the pain in my glutes and my SI Joint. I hope you find some relief. The nagging pain can be especially difficult when it keeps you from sleeping at night.
