Krouchasana, and Now My Other Knee is Sproinged

I can bind Pasasana on both sides with little effort on decent to good days, so Tim suggested Krounchasana. My femurs hate internal rotation. I make a crummy heron.

In more uplifting news I am regularly piking to handstand before lowering into bakasana after utkatasana. Circus, maybe, but it certainly makes virabadrasana challenging again! 

A few weeks ago my dogs did me the favor of spraining my knee when they lunged at something during a walk. The one is 55lbs of shepherd; the new dog is 85 pounds of American Bulldog (read: strong for his size). Garbha Pindasana exacerbated the problem, and it's been a frustrating few weeks since. Yesterday I got too enthusiastic and did every pose in Primary. Today's practice was incredibly painful and limited. More rest.
