Joshua Naterman Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 You will probably need to start with F1. There will almost certainly be exercises, and mobility work, that you will not master immediately. If not, you can always return it and get F2. Remember, if you get the whole package (F1-4) you are only paying for 3, and you will definitely have work to do in F2 for a while, so if you're serious about reaching F4 then your best buy is to get the package. That way F1 will be your freebie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Palutke Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Buy F1 and test mastery of all elements. If you can do so you are allowed to return F1 and get your money back.Then you can purchase F2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean-Rene Losier Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Don't let just reading the exercises fool you, mastery for them is harder than it appears. You'll most likely find weaknesses that will take you to a higher level anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Douglas Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Think of it as tightening loose screws-- tiny things that hold everything else in place. There's no excuse for letting a loose screw compromise the broader structure 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no excuse for letting a loose screw compromise the broader structure This is exactly the right way to think about it. I began working on Foundation with significantly more strength than the OP in many areas, and I still found lots of exercises that I've benefited from. Even for someone beginning with a good amount of strength, it's worth evaluating yourself on every element starting with the very beginning, because you never know when you're going to find a weakness. And finding a weakness usually means easy strength gains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
