Patrick laughlin Laughlin 7 Posted February 20, 2015 Woohoo! I'll ask the inevitable: If one can only start with one for awhile, and is in Foundation One, which stretch course would be best to pick? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coach Sommer 11,184 Posted February 20, 2015 Woohoo! I'll ask the inevitable: If one can only start with one for awhile, and is in Foundation One, which stretch course would be best to pick? Thanks! Sorry, doesn't work that way. You have a body that functions as a unit and the entire unit needs to be stretched. Yours in Fitness,Coach Sommer 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonathan Pettit 461 Posted February 20, 2015 What a week. First SL progressions changed, and now the Stretch series. What a great time to be alive. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Martens 16 Posted February 20, 2015 Awesome. Can't wait to check these out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Merunas Astrauskas 181 Posted February 20, 2015 I notice that a season lasts about 45 minutes. Does this mean the sessions are done on separate days than foundation and handstand series? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan Libke 93 Posted February 20, 2015 So looking forward to doing this..., in the parlance of our times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott Malin 2,446 Posted February 20, 2015 I'm so happy about the follow along option. Chromecast and Airplay (via AirParrot) work especially well for these. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aaron Yevick 13 Posted February 20, 2015 Will there be any option to buy just the early progressions of all 3, similar to the Foundation Series? I would LOVE to try these out without having to worry about the up front cost of the later progressions as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Timothy Yu 4 Posted February 20, 2015 How should the stretch series integrate with the Foundation and Handstand series for weekly schedule. Should these be done on separate days? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No this is not possible, the courses are a series to be done in a single dedicated stretch session. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott Malin 2,446 Posted February 20, 2015 How should the stretch series integrate with the Foundation and Handstand series for weekly schedule. Should these be done on separate days?It is entirely up to you as long as each series is performed once per week. For example, Front Split could be on Monday, Thoracic Bridge on Wednesday and Middle Split on Friday. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Timothy Yu 4 Posted February 20, 2015 It is entirely up to you as long as each series is performed once per week. For example, Front Split could be on Monday, Thoracic Bridge on Wednesday and Middle Split on Friday. Ok thanks! So this should not affect your performance when doing it the same day as the training. I guess my next question would be is that is there a more preferred way to do it before or after if you are doing it on the same day as Foundation or Handstand.

Aaron Yevick 13 Posted February 20, 2015 No this is not possible, the courses are a series to be done in a single dedicated stretch session.Could you please explain this? There are "easier" and "advanced" stretches within each course I imagine, and us recovering zombies will have to start somewhere, no? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander Svensson 161 Posted February 20, 2015 It is entirely up to you as long as each series is performed once per week. For example, Front Split could be on Monday, Thoracic Bridge on Wednesday and Middle Split on Friday.Will once a week be enough even if someone isn't working on Foundation or anything similar? Or is it required to actively use the new ROM during other activites during the week? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Léo Aïtoulha 234 Posted February 20, 2015 It is entirely up to you as long as each series is performed once per week. For example, Front Split could be on Monday, Thoracic Bridge on Wednesday and Middle Split on Friday. Good to know. I'm doing F7 on Monday/Thursday and H1 on Tuesday/Friday. I thought that it would have been necessary to do S3 (TB/MS/FS in a single workout (135 minutes)) on Wednesday and Saturday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonathan Pettit 461 Posted February 20, 2015 So it says once a week for each session. If one were ambitious, would multiple sessions a week speed up progress? Maybe not repeating the entire sequence, as it's long, but the ones that are most troublesome? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott Malin 2,446 Posted February 20, 2015 Will once a week be enough even if someone isn't working on Foundation or anything similar? Or is it required to actively use the new ROM during other activites during the week? The series should be sufficiently intense enough for once a week. You can limber and explore flexibility daily but it should not be anywhere near the same intensity. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
