Stretching.
« on: 09 February, 2011, 02:57:55 pm »
I'm not naturally very flexible, it's not causing me that much problem on the bike at present, but I'm wondering how often and for how long stretching my legs and hamstrings would see improvements? A daily routine would be handy, if I can stick to it.

Beg, steal, borrow or indeed buy, a copy of Bob Anderson's book "Stretching":

Stretching: Amazon.co.uk: Bob Anderson, Jean Anderson: Books

It is most excellent.
