crossfic Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I have seen too many ways of doing this stretch and im not sur which one to do? The first one is too stretch from left to right, and the other straight out in front? Does anyone know the correct way to do this stretch? If the left to right version is the correct one, would 1 rep be left + right, if that makes sence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boban Ilievski Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I'm doing it both ways, with a greater emphasis on the straight front stretch (pancake). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crossfic Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 Ahh i see, how long would you hold each strech for, by that i mean left, right and the flat or "pancake" version for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antonio Boyer Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 just get into a straddle and slowly stretch in all angles. you don't have to hold it very long, just make sure that you are comfortable and able to breathe properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairbob Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Start off with 15-20 seconds. Shoot for 60-90 seconds eventually. Basically it has to be long enough to overcome the stretch reflex. That whole relax into the stretch jumbo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
