OK, I can't get it to register my user name 'Sifter'. My name is Dave, not 'anon.' and I mean no disrespect, but anyone who has read Tom Furman's book, or ever read anything by Mike Roberston or Eric Cressey surely has come across your Hip Openers, Pavel's Cossack lunge,and the yoga poses.
No muppeteering here. You routinely present informative, sophisticated health and nutrition articles, but these stretches are extremely elementary exercises. I did not see anything special in them, and its too bad the Kool-aid drinking cheerleaders here are so afraid of hearing an alternate opinion.
Your original post says that sitting for prolonged periods of time will tighten up your Hip Flexors and Glutes, which I disagree with, in part. Hip flexors will tighten due to prolonged hip flexion and your hamstrings will tighten due to knee flextion and a posterior tilt in your pelvis. However, Gluts will stretch out due to hip flexion and become the opposite of tight.

Any idea what the music was playing in the gym , in the background? Interesting stuff to workout to...
OK... a Cossack stretch, a yoga lunge and a yoga pigeon pose..... is this supposed to be something???

It is something I saw that looked worth trying, a bit of variety
Don't have anon posts Chirs. It encourages the muppets.

Sifter - no hard feelings. I would guess that lots of people have not read the books that you mention.
I'm flattered to think I have Kool-aid drinking disciples. Maybe I better start a certification program and take advantage!
