Alan Armstrong Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Here is a video on the essentials of stretching by Dr. Lee Pierce. Very worthwhile ideas that can be adapted for martial artists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterPain Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Haha, I went with a friend from work to his gym to lift today. I started my workout with my usual joint mobility routine, and he kind of laughed about me limbering up. 20 somethings just don't get it. I quoted Zombieland. "You ever see a lion limber up before taking down a gazelle?" Nothing stretches more than a cat. My little black furred buddy stops and does yoga poses in front of me while I'm trying to walk all the time. I try to learn from the little lovable sociopathic predator. My fists bleed death. -Akuma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Armstrong Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 Limbering up joints before using them is a part of the pandiculation process that cats and dogs do naturally. Yes we can learn much from our furry psychopathic (cat) friends.I was told by my Tai Chi master that Tai Chi was developed and inspired from the movements of the cat.
