I’ve been using Tim’s workout timer also for my stretches before hitting the bag. It’s perfect. I set it up so that I have eight to ten 40-second rounds (for stretching) interleaved with 3-second rest periods (to change position). I do mainly shoulder and back stretches.
This all came about when I started working on I-DES. When I first started the I-DES, I guess I went at it a little too much, especially after it started to come around a little. I also may have been twisting a little too far at the waist. One morning, after a few days of this, my lower and mid-back told me I was doing something wrong. Had to take a few days off, read the forums, do some light stretching to increase blood flow, etc. The problem I had with stretching was that I couldn’t always monitor a clock in some positions. Then the idea finally hit me . . . program Tim’s workout timer for stretches. [Sometimes it takes me a while to realize things.] Since then, I’ve had zero injuries. That was a few weeks ago and I continue to work on I-DES.
