Hi all just a note to let you all in my 6 Month Stretching Plan update.

 

well Jan 23rd 2003 I started stretching, This is where i couldnt even touch my toes.

 

I set up short hard term goals.

 

twice a day i did my Dynamic Stretches

 

and 4 times a week i did my Isometric stretches. This was with a balance strength training as well.

 

well im 1 inch from side splits, and full splits on left and right legs.

 

I would never of gotten that far without all the information, tips, and wonderful advice from this forum.

 

I will keep u all informed on my next 6 months goal im hoping i can do full side splits cold that is my gaol in under a year.

 

Thanks again all.

Great progress! Keep it up.

Maybe you could give us an example of your routine ? "6 month splits" ^_^

My Routine is this.

 

First thing i did was study up on stretching, Best Information was 2 things Stretching Scientificty. and 2nd this forum.

 

what i did was train mon wed, thur. in the dojo.

 

Its at home where i get my gains.

 

Dymanic Stretches twice a day I have not missed a day yet,

 

2nd is all my stretches are isometrics stretches, This i do 4 times a week,

 

3rd and most important Enjoy stretching I look fwd to stretching, As i can see my goals being reached and that outweights any negitive in my goal settings.

What stretches do you do, i read up and stuff, but I was at a loss to what dynamic stretches were good they didnt exactly list much :\

 

i mean specificly the stretch, ie: leg raises

 

I know you are supposed to do leg raises, front, back and side, which is understandable, but what about your arms? and isometric stretches?
