## Resource

One of the biggest misconceptions I see with flexibility training is that it should be linear, that you're always making progress, always going deeper each session. So when your stretch depth varies, you think it's not working or that you're losing progress. And that's exactly why people give up. In this episode, I'm breaking down what's actually driving these changes and how to know if your stretching is actually working. 1:1 Consult: https://jenhosler.com/monthly-coaching/ Movement School Waitlist: https://jenhosler.com/movement-school/
