Hi everyone, my first day here. Found Andre through socials. I'm in my 40s now, and hope to take my kicks to new levels, literally. I have 10 year TKD background and was decent when I was younger, but have never been able to kick beyond my head height, have always wanted to kick split like Van Damme. I've tried many things over the years, PNFs, static and dynamic stretching, even bought stretch machines. But I've never been able to get past certain sticking points. I recently found some new exercises like kick-stand squats, and nerve flossing that immediately improved my kicking height, but hit a wall again. Also, these days I get pain in my hips when i try to throw a quick snapping round house kick (slow gradual decline due to lessening practice over the years). I am ok when I chamber the leg for a side kick though and can hold the kick pretty high now, but still feel a lot of tightness in my hamstrings that prevent me from kicking higher. Also, my dynamic kicks (especially when I have a bag to hig) are way higher than my static holds. Anyway, looking forward to learning and growing with you all!

Tell us about a recent observation, win, realization, or healing experience.

#WOH One is the beginning of extracting the benefits of both the Inside and Outside Hurdler's positions. Session One starts off with targeted outer and inner hip-centric activity, including low amplitude explosive switching. The pelvic health, glute building, and explosive hip opportunities begin early in this more advanced series. If this internal Level is unlocked for you and you pass the basic criteria in the session intro, this is for you. Flex Hard!

Hi coach @Andre Victorian if I'm wanting to practice my question mark kick more, are there any modules or video/exercises in specific that you would recommend. At the moment in doing about 2x straddle, and 2 x cosack and maybe 1 of pike/hof a week, and ggbb daily. Thanks. fh

I am experimenting with ways to link multiple forms of communication, and include visuals with text. Those visuals will include diagrams and videos, and I have just published a test case that hyperlinks topics from a diagram back to the full document that it represents. Please take a look at this beta version idea, and let me know if presenting this way is helpful. https://sites.google.com/flextheory.com/flexedroadmaps/home
