Workout Update: Lift 4/Beginner Pilates Doubles Day 3

Day 3 was a total flexibility day. For Beginner Pilates it was back to the Fundamentals 1 workout and for Lift-4 it was a recovery day, so that means you can rest or do one or both of the recovery workouts. I decided to do both recovery workouts, first doing Lift-4 stretch and then doing the roll and recovery (which is the foam roller routine). While I cannot say that I noticed a marked change in my flexibility, but I can feel, especially after the foam roller routine, that my hamstrings and hips are a bit less tight. I still have way too much gut (along with the tight back, hamstrings, and hips) to make any of the forward-folding moves easy, and many times I cannot get my hands much past my knees. But, I have a feeling, with all the flexibility work that this doubles routine will have, that I will see improvement week-to-week.
