jack always has hurting feet, legs, heels.
i wonder if this one would help him? you know, helping to stretch things out? getting him to do it will the battle.

okay, i'll do this one today and probably the bicep dumbbells curls from yesterday. i think i can manage the 11 pound weights for those. we'll see.

thanks jess!
