I'm curious what everyone's physical practices are looking like if you're mostly on lockdown due to COVID? here, it's finally gotten warm enough to be outside comfortably for activities other than running, so I've been trying to do some gymnastics-type training in the park and am considering ordering a slackline and some rings that I could hang from a tree branch.

The downside is that I really don't like people watching me. :P

If I understand the research correctly, stretching before activity decreases joint stability, which is bad for the average person, and worse if your joints are hypermobile. I do stretching at other times, so that I don't risk that! The other one is 'no held stretches' for hypermobile joints, because ... umm, something about stretching the wrong thing. If I can find the reference and remember why I was looking for it, I'll come back here.
