For your Stretching: TAKE YOUR TIME...YOU DON`T GAIN ANYTHING IF YOU DON`T REST ENOUGH...
THE OPPOSITE WILL HAPPEN!!
I think the words of my boxing coach will be the right ones:
"We don´t look for the maximum impact, we rather look for the optimum."
Train smart
Best regards

Re: Goal and Plan
Hi Michael, your goal-plan includes a lot of different work-outs. But where are your P.N.F´s, which Mr. Kurz highly recommended in his publications? I think this will reduce the lack of your performance... You don´t need to train them very often ( to many applications are counterproductive). I suppo...
