As for the transition of static flexibility I had never heard that before. But I have always been told the best way to 'stretch' for an activity is to actually do it at half speed and work your way up. And flexibility is defitaly something I need to look at extensively. Got any good stretching programs/links for me guys?

I use to do a couple forms first at half speed and make the kicks slow. Then stretch the old fashion way by doing splits and leaning to one side and what not. But Now I feel that incorporating Yoga movements into a regular stretching routine is the best thing you can do. Even if you just read up on some books and get a video it will help with flexibility and strength 10 fold.
