I want to iterate that it is more than the stretching exercise itself it is how you stretch. These exercises are geared for releasing tension not creating tension so if you feel the stretch you may have gone too fast. The onset of the exercise is to move to the point when you feel the muscle starting the stretching fase. At that point wait until you can feel it release and then stretch a micron more and wait again for the release. It is a different concept from the athletic type stretching I do for sore muscles etc. That type of stretching I stretch to feel the stretch. This stretching focuses on feeling the release. Apologies for redundancy but so important it bears repeating.
