    WOW!!!!!!!!!! Wahine, this mobilization was amazing! I did it ONCE, actually had to get on my dining room table to get in the right position No doubt that it was from some restriction to my sciatic nerve because the original problem was gone It makes sense, actually. I did all those very heavy (for me) deadlifts and squats last week and I tend to do all of my mobility BEFORE our training sessions and I don't usually stretch afterwards. I need to do that, especially when lifting heavy...

    Thank you for the suggestion! One leg has been like that for a very long time but the other was new, I just figured my calf had some trigger points that I couldn't seem to release.

    You don't have to limit your stretching to either before or after workouts. I used to work with a guy who stretched while watching TV after dinner, and he was very flexible; after he retired he started teaching martial arts at the local community center.

    I prefer to stretch before going to bed. For me this often is after a workout, but I usually have dinner and watch TV for a while in between. I also take stretch breaks at work.
