Cathe Friedrich''s Total Body Stretching DVD

I wanted a short, no nonsense, but comprehensive stretching routine for daily use. This DVD delivers. It has 3 routines, one using just a mat, and two with balls. I sometimes do the ball routines, but the first, basic routine is actually my favorite.

Reasons I love this DVD:

* No excessive chit chat, I like to zone out during stretching and Cathe''s directions are mostly limited to guiding positions. Perfect!

* Really good stretches of IT band area -there are several stretches that target this problem area

* Good guidance on modification and warnings about overstretching (I''m hyper flexible, so this isn''t a problem for me, but I''m glad she talks about it)

* Good pacing in general (there are a few stretches I hold longer than she does, but it generally flows well).

* Nice and short (13 minutes), I''m not inclined to skip doing it for lack of time.

What could be improved:

* The basic routine is very leg-heavy and a bit light on shoulder area stretches. When I do the routine I add a few extra at the end for the shoulders and upper back.

* The pacing during the back arches is a bit off for me, so I vary the routine, holding the back arch both to stretch my back muscles and then holding the arch the other way to stretch across the abdomen (giving them equal time).

This is a great video. It has three 13-minute stretching segments: two with the exercise ball and one without. The stretches cover the whole body and I feel more relaxed after I am done. I would recommend this for post exercise and for general stress relief.
