Yeah it says to do that, but not on the front. I guess that would mean hands on the knees or shins.

holding in front, ontop of the shings, will probably make you pull harder and place you into a g reater anterior pelvic tilt. I really don't know the reason for sure though.

Good stuff. I really like that stretch. I'm pretty tight there on my right side too. I'm definitely going to incorporate that stetch into my program now. Stretch 5 is the one I said I did for the anterior capsule, except I use a nylon strap. They say "posterior/superior," which makes more sense because you're going into internal rotation and adduction.

Normally poor flexibility needs to be corrected with static stretching.

ooh.. how contraversial.

Some ppl sweear by dynamic streching and others really totally oppose.

Ideally I'd think if you haave poor flexibility and are bringing in a stretching program that isokentic would probably both the safest and most effective way to go.. where you're strechting from diffrent angles and lengths on the same group or limb ..particularly if the muscle or limb is being worrked from different angles..

Hell yEs a good stretch sesh can feel awesome!.. good comment whoever said that.

I would stretch after workouts

I would stretch after two and a half hours of cardio workouts and weight training. Is that a good idea?

Cow Pimp, P-funk, whoever else,

would you guys mind posting your entire stretching regime? When you do the stretches, how you place them around your different training sessions and for each bodypart? And what you do on your off days. I would love to view them.

Streching shit

Yo, Man.

I love sretching, although they kill the shit our of my muscles! I do hanging lifts with stretching, and I do with lat pullups & dips. I don't do Swiss balls or steps.

Yep, I do the deadlifts, the squats, that keep me disclipined to get proper form (I ache day, each fucking day .. did each FUCKING DAY? ).

But I'm stretching ALWAYS! Damn! Why the f*ck am I stretching my abs, pecs, lats ... at night, waking me up at sleep? Always? ( My wife seems to accept the agressive grabs... but that is negotiable. Go figure.! (She must be a gem.)

This is a very good explanation why we are not flexible and what to do to become flexible. Conventional stretches excluded.

i don't know but the knew thing is not to strech before workouts now because they say you are loosing the mucles and tendens around joints and you can loose control and hurt yourself you should stech after a workout or after you are done with your sets so that is what i have learned now i still strech before i workout but some of my cleints like to after wards and they have had good results so take as you will that is the now thing

Good stuff.



Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.
