    I dont think there is anything wrong with using it but I just didnt want it to be the only way I can do a move! Being safe is always number one priority if I do use it it will probably be when im trying something new!

    I will definitely listen to my body and not try to force something on it that it is not ready for l know practice makes prefect but I know that I have to be patient as well!

    Just to add I wonder if I do have some type of strength but im being scared to use it in fear that I might hurt myself!! But I guess that is something I will have to get over but still practice safely!
