Hey guys. I’m new just today, but I have been reading for about 4 hours now. Mostly I’ve been reading about the LOT topic. Like was stated earlier, it isn’t an exact science. It will vary per person as your body dictates, or as your personal preferrence dictates.
Obviously if you have a LOT any higher than 9 o’clock you want to concentrate on stretching out those ligs. Which means keeping the stretching angles low (6-9 o’clock).
Now the grey area (or personal preferrence area) comes from 9ish down to about 7:30. While yes, you can do lower angle stretches, and yes, you can see results from them (even as low as 6:30 there will be SOME sort of results), the question you have to ask yourself is, is it worth the time spent to stretch at a lower angle to get gains that will be minimal at best?
It’s all a balancing act of stretching both the ligs and the tunica. If it were me, at the higher LOT I would focus solely on the ligs until my LOT dropped to about 8:30 or so. Then what you can do is start consentrating on the tunica to raise your LOT a bit. Then go back to the ligs. Keep that process up until your have exhausted your full potential (or it starts dragging on the ground as you walk….LOL) Keep in mind though that raising you LOT is not an easy task and will take some time as the tunica is much more difficult to stretch than the ligs.
Hope this helps somebody. If I am totally off-base Bigger let me know. But I think I was on the same wave length as you through that whole thread.
