I just did all three Stretch Max routines and I'm baffled. Why no chaptering? Hitting the "next" button on my remote got me from the Intro to Routine #1, to Routine #2, to Routine #3, to the credits.
I'm disappointed that there are no premixes but I'm even more disappointed that you can't choose a particular body part to stretch. The workouts do integrate the stretching, so it's not as though you go from neck, to shoulders, to chest, to back, to legs, etc. Many of the moves incorporate more than one area, particularly in the stability ball routine. But still! There are moves that do stretch one body part only.
Nevertheless, I liked it. The first routine didn't do too much for me (I do yoga fairly regularly), but the stability ball and resistance band routines were good. Doing the entire 60 minutes didn't feel redundant, but I feel a 60 min yoga workout is better flexibility training for me. I don't know how often I'll sub one of the routines for a stretch in another workout, since they're 20 min long and you can't easily shorten them.
