How To Do It

Excerpt via Re-Examining – And Re-Defining – The Athlete’s Body
Hip flexibility plays a HUGE role in proper form for your squats and lunges. It took a long time for me to break parallel with my squat and I only got there once I started regularly adding yoga and hip opening stretches to my routine.
A well rounded routine incorporates all modalities of fitness: cardio, stamina, strength, agility, power, speed, coordination, balance, accuracy and flexibility.
Do you spend enough time working on your flexibility?
So very, very true.
If you want a body you love, you need to work on your attitude towards the body you have.
