Hi,
Is the recommendation to perform the series once a week like front split or is it beneficial to perform this series more often?

I'm not a coach, but once a week is highly recommended. Two reasons: First, it is heavy-duty and you need a week to recover when stretching with that kind of intensity. And second, when adding in the other GB modalities (I'm doing the SS, each Foundation discipline twice a week, and HS1 & 2 three times a week), there is a time restriction to fit in another 45 minutes session. Like Coach says in one of the stretch videos, "the series is meant to be done once a week. Doing it twice a week will not improve you twice as much. In fact it will do more harm." (paraphrased)
Well said, Bill
Rather than doing the Stretch series multiple times a week we recommend to pick a few stretches from the courses that you are having trouble with and do these with less intensity during the week
Great, thanks for you respons. =)
