Now after 4 weeks of Stretching twice a day.

 

Morning Dymanic Stretching

 

Evening Isometric Stretching with a pully system. Painfull but very effictive,

 

As this time Starting at white belt in Rhee Taekwondo (I was a 2nd Dan in Zen Do Kai) I can realy understand why Flexiblility training is so important, As within 1 Month from not being able to touch my toes to being 6 inches from Side Splits. Hoping within 2 months full splits again
