Hi everyone!
I'm on a strict diet of cabbage and S&S. Love it. Doing 32/40 on 1HSW and TGU getting ready to move to the 48 on getups.
To be honest I've not paid too much attention to the corollary exercises in S&S before sometime early this year when I started going through _all_ of the warm up and stretches post-workout. Which is fine. I'll do it as written.
But....
I'm quite flexible, which means that I can do rock-bottom squats with no 'tail bend', including chinese wall squats with feet a foot apart. The halo never feels like it do anything except eat a few minutes of my time as I have very good should mobility. The hip bridge is good for me, simply to activate glutes, which is one of my 'things'.
On the stretches I simply lie flat across my leg in the 90-90 stretch feeling, well, no stretch at all, even with outside twisted torso and after re-reading the book a few times. Almost the same with the QL straddle - I can get my lat to touch my knee, which does produce a tiny stretchy feeling...
Som my question is this: do you guys think I should just keep at it as it is - and if so: why? I need some reason to hold on to mentally.
And if no: what can I substitute with that keeps me growing?
Thanks for all your wisdom!
