I stretch every morning while I wait for the coffee to brew and the eggs to cook, and every night before bed.

yeah it's defenitely a good idea to warm up a bit before streching.... specially if your old like me.

warm up - stretch - work out - stretch is the way to go. and regularly doing yoga and core exercises will help your flexibility too.

Step into your bindings and do a double rocket grab while standing on the ground.    If you aren't flexible, the flex of your skis will help, and if you are, you can just move your hands closer to your feet.  I do it daily, for a few minutes.  Then, I do tail presses and butters all over my room.
