Nice workout, Gator. How long did it take you to plow through that?

jag

[Gator]

it takes me about 40 min or so, dependin on if do it right time wise..
it works for me for right now, slow n steady wins this race..
i usually wait 20-25 seconds between sets or so..
first set is usally 8-10 rep range and then so on until the reps ar met, usually in 3 sets, some 2
once i reach that goal rep wise i crank it up a lil more next workout..
the key is stretching after the set is done, damn crap hurts !!!!
hard part is going slow on the way down, its an ego check for sure..

ive started doing yoga at nite to stretch out, helps a ton i tell ya..

Train safe

I've taken some of the same things that the DC guys that you seem to have, such as the stretching and slow reps (though I don't always go as slow as I ought to). I learned a great deal of flexibility techniques during the days of my wrestling, Aikido and Ju-Jitsu and still do those stretching routines every day. It does make a huge difference. Keep up the hard work, man! It's nice to compare notes with other folks about what they're doing. It's a good way to pick up new ideas, sometimes.
