Hey! 48 years old, I'm actually in pretty good shape but terrible hips(been told I qualify for a hip replacement) and after hearing Coach Sommers on a couple podcasts decided to try it. I've gone through the first workouts for middle and front splits; obviously way behind in everything and having to use many, many blocks! But I will say while I'm extremely sore the next day after the workout I feel pretty good!!! Oh, I will say I keep a pretty good anti inflammatory diet -tons of herbs, collagen etc.
Other notes - Internal rotation and hamstring flexibility are awful.
My question is I have all three scheduled once a week and am committed to this but what do most people do in the off days? Can I do some bodyweight stuff - i.e. single leg deadlifts etc? Some light stretching? Am I not supposed to do anything for hamstrings etc the rest of the week? Is there an article in the forum about whats's recommended or OK on the off days?
Many thanks!!
