I had bad A.D.D training a while ago. Everyone on this board defiantly knows that because I have a hard time with patients, not sure whats right or wrong (who to trust and listen to) and motivated to do it. I know now how to create my own program. I should base it on weaknesses and goals. If a muscle is short, it is tight, strong, and needs to be stretched. If a muscle is flexible, it may be weaker. I tested my right and left arm/leg/side imbalances with a bunch of weight exercises in order to write up a program for myself.

It is really hard to get a program off of the computer from someone online because they have not seen you in person, do not know your strength and weaknesses and range of motion, etc. Yeah video, explanations, and pictures will help..but its always better to research yourself as much as possible and read about strengths, weaknesses, flexibility, posture, what muscle movements there are, what can create an imbalance, etc. My problem was trust and unsure what is right or wrong.

oh and yes I think I do have A.D.D (learning and memory problems). I can easily learn new things, but it has to be visually and repeated over and over to understand. It's hard to understand by words unless the words are simple ones and easy to understand (like elementry/middle school vocab). My vocabulary and reading comprehension is limited. The main problem when reading is forgetting what I read and have write down whats important before going on to the next for studying and for anything or I forget what I read right when I read the next thing.
