Stretching

Stretching, in my fitness life, and in a lot of yours is challenging to say the least or just plain non existent.  I have made the effort in the recent past to put stretching, mobility training and flexibility at the top of my training pyramid.
Over the next few weeks I will go over various stretching modalities, examine them, demonstrate how to do them, and track my own flexibility/mobility progress.

To start off, here is a very basic intro to stretching from neilarey.com for my brother....and you!!

Neila Rey's 50 Reasons to Exercise

50 reasons to exercise

Atom Workout

The "Atom" Workout.  A lot of fun.  Much more strength/fatigue related than the 300 workout with the addition of fatigue level push ups as well as chin ups.  I will add the chin up trainer later today from www.neilarey.com

Got through Level 2 or 5 Sets with no rest between.

"300" Body Weight Workout

A great workout that I did today in my Conditioning Program with my students!!

Went to Level 3 with 7 Sets and no rest between sets.  Amazing what a little body weight and core work will do to you when you are used to lifting and taking longer breaks.
