Hi everyone. After listening to Mr. Sommer on podcasts i cant wait to get into j-curls and shoulder extention W dowel. However im at early F1 stages right now, should i wait until those exercises gets introduced in the course or can i "cheat" time and start implementing it from the go? If yes, how often?

btw im doing F1 and all 3 stretch courses since 6 weeks Ago.

HI Jonas the shoulder extension it is implemented completely in foundations 4. meanwhile if you are doing the TB stretch seris you can perform the shoulder extension once a week with the program. For the JC it is a part of F1 program, so as you pass the first element you can begin with it .

Alessandro, do you mean I can add shoulder extention w dowel prior to TB stretch? Or did you mean there is a shoulder extention stretch in the TB course ?

i would like to get some shoulder extention with dowel+small weight in.is this doable or is it me being inpatient?

Hi Jonas,

The weighted shoulder extension work you are hoping to begin is found in the Handstand One course. I suggest beginning H1 as soon as possible to begin addressing basic weighted shoulder flexion and extension. Between the iM's from Foundation One (especially HBP), performing the Thoracic Bridge stretch series once per week, and the Handstand One iM's, your shoulder mobility will improve drastically. 

I hope this answers your question! If not, please keep them coming.
