PNF protocol for differing sessions.

Charlie, how do you recommend one trains for permenant flexibility improvement after their session? e.g Type of stretch, duration, reps and intensity.
Right now, after every tempo session I do a 1min static stretch for each muscle group and again before bed. what do you think of this?
Thanks.

I would concentrate efforts on increasing ROM after tempo sessions and restoration of existing ROM on speed days. Stretching as you suggest is fine as long as stretching before bed (away from any warm-up) is extremely gentle. Also remember that you have an extended period of time to achieve increased ROM so don’t get too aggressive.
