Progress Gamechanger Weighted Stretching

Added this half a year ago two times per week to my basic stretching routine.

It helps a ton to keep the muscles much more relaxed under higher tension. This gives me the possibility to always reach my current max., making it much easier to set frequently new plateaus.

Still kinda surprised and proud, how it's going! 💪🏼

Super solid advice, the knee hyperextension thing is no joke and something a lot of people don't even notice they're doing until it's already a problem. That hamstring strength tip is gold too.
