Inversion Challenge November 2013-November 2014

Not sure what I did with inversion last week if anything. I did my inversion last night. Whew the blood was flowing to my head. I should have gained 2" from just that inversion alone :lol:

I don't think I have been inverting correctly. I hung off the couch at a sharper angle with my knees above my head last night.

I can't see any mentions on my IPhone. PM me if it is a must see. Allons y

Yeah, I seem to have to be on something very high to get the same result. And I have to hang off the bed backwards a certain way to get a good head rush. I don't get the same effect if I hang forward. :ohwell:
 
I need to try this so I can believe it for myself. I get dizzy so quick that I have been avoiding this for quite some time, but I'm tired of watching from the bleachers and want to get in the game, lol.
 
Okay so the last time I inverted, I think I may have pulled a muscle or something :/ I didn't do anything strenuous, just the "touch my toes" pose for 4 min and I have pain in my right leg lately when sitting. Its intense, uncomfortable pain. I need to make an appt to see an Orthopedic doc so until then inversions on hold. Now I'm not 100% sure that the pose was the cause, the pain didn't happen during the week of inversion or even the week after. I'm only assuming :/

PinkSunshine77 Be careful that you don't injure yourself. Inversion can be bad if you aren't doing it correctly, maybe you should take a break until you are well again, then you can try doing it a different way like hanging off the bed.

Maybe you ladies are really on to something by the backward hanging technique.

Going to start this up again in a few days, how are you ladies inverting exactly? Sitting? standing?

I usually do mine standing and bending over from the waist but faithVA got me thinking and wanting to try her technique.

Yes you should get in the game. You will definitely get some results. welcome to the challenge Smiley79
 
Inverted day something, new method.

Edit: Day 2 new method. I think I should measure my hair to monitor my progress.

Thanks PureSilver! I'm gonna research and find a technique that would cause me the least dizziness. I get dizzy very easily, but I do look forward to experimenting this method. :)
 
i must try a new technique come March first, my hair growth has slowed a little but since i have another 3 months before i relax, i might as well get the most out of it.
 
I forgot a day so tonight is day 7. Im not sure if I got any growth, because im wearing celies. I may take the braids down and redo them before the weekend
 
I posted an update in the "12" inches in 12 months" challenge thread. I completed the 7th day of inverting on the 14th, took a pic on the 20th and I was a little over 4" in the nape area. I took a pic today on Feb 27th and I am well over 5". I will attach pics.
Feb 20th:

I am on my phone so I have to add the pics desperately because it won't add more than one on a post at a time but this pic is from today, the exact same braid. I had to ale it out and redo the perimeter. But I measures and I'm over 5".

Sorry for the late post ladies, i'm still here. This session i am going to try a different method. faithVA made me wanna venture into something different. I'll invert after i wash this matted hair of mine and hand off the bed for 4 mins. I cannot show any true length right now because i am 14 weeks post relaxer, and i know i have promised pics last month. I will definitely have comparison pics though when i relax. Since November i think i have gained a solid 2.5 inches and that i am grateful for.
