MMA and stretching

[JMAC19D]

Does anyone have any tips for flexability, or sample stretching programs?

Well, you have to work on your neck area as the 1st step along with shoulder stretching - shoulders and neck region are the hardest hit in MMA many times.

What's your routine like now?

I have a pretty basic routine, I was in the military and I use the stretches they taught me. I just don't seem to be getting any more flexible.

Basic beginning Muay Thai stretching includes a few arm stretches, then lift each knee with hands clasped in front, standing on the other leg, and pull to your chest with toes pointed down. Then life each leg behind like you see the footballers (soccer players to those in the US) do before coming on the pitch. Follow with touching the ground in front of you with your legs as straight as you can get them, then touch the ground in the middle, then behind you. You are now officially ready to begin training...

It improved my flexibility noticeably in just over a year, and I am mid 30's so will probably work for you too.
