Flexibility advice

3 watchers

Brian G Feb 2012 10:10pm, 27 Feb 2012 319 posts	0 Brian G Well - my flexibility is truly shocking. Looking for some pointers in what people in the land of Fetch do to improve this. Wondered if anyone can recommend any video clips from youtube/vimeo and the like that show short flexibility routines that I could try and following on a daily (ish) basis. Or if not video clips any suggested routines / workouts that I can follow. There are 2 reasons that have promoted me to actually want to start a flexibility regeme - 1) to improve my running and 2) My physio said my flexibility was really very poor and that I needed to sort it out or could have problems later in life!! (visit to physio for calf problems - that for the moment seem to be resolved). many thanks
