BKJ1216 Posted April 1, 2003 Posted April 1, 2003 Yeah I need some stretches to stretch the upper, lower, side, and lower side abs(basicially whole region). I looked through that stretching thread and It didn't say anything about abdominals. Also anyone know how to stretch forearms and chest? I coudl prbably find everything else in that thread.

Maestro Posted April 1, 2003 Posted April 1, 2003 Stretch forearms by simply pulling your fingers (with the other hand) towards you elbow, either above or below your wrist. Stretch the chest: Hang from something like a pullup bar with your palms facing away from you and hands right next to each other. Relax and let your shoulders take your full weight, lay your head forward towards your chest and bend your legs behind you. Or, put your hand and forearm on the wall, palm on the wall, about chest level. Turn your body so that your arm is going behind you, keeping your elbow straight. Abs: lay on your stomach and push up with you arms, leaving your hips on the ground so your back is arching a lot. This may or may not help, depending on how flexible your back is. To hit the obliques right obliques, twist to the left and lean to the left at the same time, and vice versa for the other side. That's all I can think of for now, hope it helps, if not, I'll be back. Might as well take my advice--I don't use it anymore.
