No, but I can describe pretty easy:

Sit on the floor with legs out straight.
Bend one leg and cross it over the other leg, placing the foot next to the knee.
Grab the knee that is now raised with both hands and push the knee inwards at 90deg.
You should feel your ITB stretching down near you hip joint.

Don't forget to massage the (unstretched) ITB near the knee, where it joins the tendons. Very hard to stretch that bit, so dig away. Best done sitting on a chair using massage oil or deep heat.

Here's a pic. Pull in the direction of the red arrow. You should feel most effect in the area marked with blue:

This ITB stretch gets deeper into the glutes. The hand under the knee controls the direction and force of the stretch. The hand under the ankle controls the angle of femur rotation, allowing you to target a very wide range of specific areas.

That looks just like it. What is the model? Where did ya get the pic?
Is that one lugged? cant really tell...

climbo 02-09-06 05:01 PM

that is a 90's model supposedly, it is lugged, track specific though, yours is a roadie that will accomodate a a fixed set-up with the semi-horiz dropsouts.

Hey, we arrived safely. Stopped in Auckland for a beer, it's all good.

Cheers.

G'Day Expat. Seems funny talking to someone who's now living in the past. It's only 5:00pm yesterday over there, right?

Nothing's changed in here, just been a bit quieter for a couple of days :p

Good to see part one of the epic journey is over without any dramas or arrests.

G'day Exy, need to update that profile to say - somewhere in the USA!

badsac 02-09-06 06:15 PM

:roflmao:

Are you drawing them? If so, you've missed your calling. They boy's got talent! :D

jock 02-09-06 09:07 PM

How long before Expat censors it?

climbo 02-09-06 09:13 PM

Surely anyone could recognise such a fine contribution to modern art? ;)

Wonder if Expat'll come over all draconian now he's not "one of us" anymore? :eek:

classic1 02-09-06 09:29 PM

Good to see Jock only drew the figure using one hand. You guys aren't silly enough to be using two. :)

climbo 02-09-06 09:34 PM

nor big enough for the use of 2.

Expat will remain a man of integrity in the manner of Aussies world over. At least until the mormons get to him that is.

mrkott3r 02-09-06 10:49 PM

Expat will leave us alone. He wont be on at the same time as us anyway.

Got me Uni ID today. WooHoo cheap beer at Uni and Cheap beer every Wednesday Night in town!

Brian 02-09-06 11:05 PM

I'll be the same guy I've always been. But with this sad dial-up, I won't be around much for a while. While we were out shopping today, saw the Grolsch mini keg for $13. Yeah, you guys get ripped off. Oh, as far as integrity goes, did I mention the day the bank added an extra $1k to my deposit? Yup, I went back and made them fix it. Laugh if you want, I won't be checking back in until tomorrow. But I will modify my profile now.

Na, she recons older folk get big muscles from using it but we didn't discuss it seriously cause she knows I don't like taking stuff.
