for anyone struggling with middle split series

Hey guys - forgive me for a post that Is  a little self indulgent but I'm very happy and wanted to share this lol 

i was sifting through my early form checks and have to say am quite buzzing right now to see definite improvements in a few areas I didn't even think were improving . One such move is the pancake hold as pictured below before and after . ...

this post, if nothing else, I would like to be  a reminder to anyone out there new to stretching and mobility work who feel Like they could never make progress with this kind of stuff 

I was you a few months ago. These pics are only 3 months apart to where I am today  . I'm literally that guy who coach talks about made out of stone, beaten up and in need of serious work so if I can make changes in my deficits you sure can 

I didn't feel there was any improvement as I would do my series week by week, but by being consistent with it and putting in the work each week I'm already seeing differences .  . Ok I'm still up on blocks to help my Apt remain, but it's progress for me nonetheless. And I assure you I didn't feel it possible a few months back and was very disheartened by it. 

Don't be disheartened , do what I do and record yourself often so you can see not only your form but small changes for yourself that can really help re motivate you , stay consistent week by week, put in good quality work and you WILL see results 

regards and good luck

Congratulations on the improvement, Leigh! Your flexibility has definitely come a long way. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!

Wow, @Leigh Kettle that is some seriously impressive progress! Keep at it. 

Awesome improvement! Keep it up!

Great progress! You inspired me to record myself more to compare progress over time. Can't wait to see more.

Welcome Chan! I think I'll speak on behalf of everyone that we all struggled with the stretch series at first. 

Leigh has definitely come a long way in his training and his efforts have definitely been rewarded.

Please feel free to share your progress with the courses. I'm sure you'll inspire the next generation of students to come.

Sure.

chan seriously don't give up there was never anyone stiffer than me at the start I assure you . Many times during sessions I would curse at how bad I was . Anyway earlier I thought I'd test my middle split out while cold (ie really seeing how much progress I've made ) below is the result which I'm very pleased about 

Week by week the series is subtle but definite - 

good luck my friend and keep us informed of your progress
