Day 3 was the signature stretch routine in XB, and the flexibility and mobility routine in 645.
The signature stretch routine was a bit easier than it was the last time I did it. I was able to get in and out of the down-dog splits a bit easier, and my balance was a bit better than the last time I did it.
For the 645 flexibility routine, you do three sets of six moves. There is no rest between the moves but you do get a 45-second rest between the sets. The moves in the set focus on hip, back, and shoulder mobility. Then there are two sets of just squats using a power loop, and then two sets of a shoulder mobility move using the power loop. Then, in the end, you do a couple of minutes of breath work in which you find a comfortable position and breathe in and out. Throughout the workout, Amoila really tries to explain what each of the exercises do for you, and how they will help in the other workouts. I could definitely feel my hips and back getting looser toward the end of the routine. It is a great routine that really is the cornerstone of the whole functional movement theme of the program.
