Here is the stretching routine we have
been using in our Base Training program. If you have your own routine, double check it
against this one and fill in any gaps there might be.
Conversely, if you see something you think is missing or you would
like us to add, let me know.
Move slowly into position and then hold each
stretch for at least two deep breathes in and out. Hold the
stretch, not your breath!
