I'm 42 years old and have never been very flexible. I do Tae Kwon do and need to improve my kicks. Any good leg/hip stretches? I've been working hard on it for last year but not much improvement. Thanks

Also, I recommend anyone training high kicking martial arts watch some of Bill "Superfoot" Wallace's videos on stretching. Many clips of his videos are available on Youtube. This is one of my favorites: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxokaEvKnD8 – The Wudang Kid Dec 31 '15 at 13:53

@TheWudangKid I disagree, I think leg/hip stretches that help the best with kicking is pretty specific. My lack of hip flexibility is the reason I stopped doing Sanshou. – Tom Dec 31 '15 at 20:53
