Saw this this morning and immediately a picture appeared of 99% of all that attended the 4th Annual Gather during this. Laughed, and laughed, and laughed. (look at ALL the positions)

Oh ya, well Mike I got out of my chair once or twice to eat and that was a stretch!
 
First, that was pretty boring. I know a young lady who can do things like touch her nose to the floor. No big deal right. Try it bending over backwards. She's capable of other more "interesting" feats when fed sufficient alcohol. But I won't go into those here.
 
Shucks,
I could stretch like that when I was in the middle of my soccer reffing career although the BACK FOOT would still be FLAT on the floor stretching the Achilles tendon along with the other tendons. I could do it with BOTH legs; Sad to say my rear portion wasn't THAT shapely .

Is wasn't supposed to be thrilling. It is supposed to be the very best way to PROPERLY stretch with the least movement. Sorry it didn't 'charge your battery'.

I didn't see ANYTHING like that stretching at the gathering! (Too bad,,, my step son could have used the motivation!)
 
OK: Well I am going through rehab for my torn left calf muscle. He hasn't done that to me yet. Concentrate on the "HE", why could it not have been a gorgeous woman, or fairly acceptable woman. So far I think the key to stretching is don't try to hard. At least with me so far. I would sure prefer a woman to be deep rubs on my leg, well it does feel good until he hits that giant knot in my leg. Oh well, it will be fine, once I am done. No flaming on the woman thing, who would you rather have massage you???

Ty: I did find out day one that we do need to do some stretching. My therapist says that I am what caused the problem. Not stretching the hamstrings and calf muscles contributed to the injury. I hope I can keep my self doing some good stretching and flexibility exercises. I know by what he is trying to do that I am incredibly stiff. My hammies are incredibly sore.

Wendy: I don't think that is possible. I run, ride my bike, as far as strength that wasn't the problem. At least according to my physical therapist. I must stretch these muscles I guess, I have never done that much before, yes your basic stretches prior too exercise but I guess not enough.

I think you are doing well. I have a John Belushi looking husband, the boy can stretch and put both heels of his feet to his forehead and with that stomach of his!! We do both agree, just do what you can and stay...active!
 
LOL: John Belushi looking husband...My work keeps me active but it does not keep me "in shape" I guess. I am going to have to keep stretching these legs out so I don't tear this calf again. I guess once it has been damaged it is prone to worse.

I took one look and realized that I hurt without moving any body parts and doing that wasn't going to make anything better.
