Anyone had any success with loosening tight hips/hammies?
I remember few years back, i could hardly reach my shins, or bend even teh slightest to the side with the hips. Now, i can touch my toes and my hips feel fine.
Takes a loong time, but stretching everyday will help, its also good to join in on those stretching sessions that some rec centres have, or some yoga/stretch class.
If i recall, p90x covers some stretching too. Probably be able to torrent that shit from somewhere.
I also heard stretching right after getting out of bed in the morning, and every night before going to sleep is good.
