Sorry SG, it wasn't neither a rant nor anything personal.
Yoga could help, but I doubt it can be suffice. I've been doing yoga for last 3 years, and I can honestly say it wouldn't get me there. So far...
I don't know... maybe it's never too late, but it ceratinly can be late! :wink: (What, after all, would the dear ol' IRU do if it was never...
May be U never tried, or never tried doing that in the right way ;) It's never late U know.
Interestig :) Looks like flexibility issues are having more attention lately. Anyway my 0.02$. First of all front splits, i.e. left/right can be...
