How it works

The program’s own rules, as Catalyst runs them.

Practise daily, preferably after warming up or training, on a firm surface that does not slip. Learn the positions before practising alone; a partner is optional. Move slowly, breathe steadily and use gentle tension without pain. For the full routine, choose either one thirty-second hold or three ten-second holds per stretch, giving each side the full amount. You may assess sit-and-reach progress monthly. Seek professional modifications for pain or medical needs. Extra practice is optional.
