Quest for Balance - First Update...

Just a quick update on the progress of my now 3-day journey in the quest for balance, using Coach Scott Sonnon's "Four Corner Drills". First of all, I can tell you that I now know why you must work at the basic level for 1-3 months. Coach Sonnon suggests you practice for 10-15 minutes each day. Well, I would assume he means at one time. I had to modify that right out of the gate. I am doing the exercise a few times per day and I don't hold it very long yet. I plan on improving on that - in fact, if his claim is true, I am counting on being able to hold the poses for much longer by the end of the 3rd month. I am also not able to lift my legs as high as is shown in the photos accompanying his article. But again, I'm sure that will improve as well. However, I do seem to feel a bit more stability on one leg already so I am encouraged. Anyone that has taken the challenge with me - what are your results thus far?
