I purchased this product on the off chance it would aid in increasing my flexibility for my Kenpo Karate training. At 65 yoa starting something like Kenpo Karate is quite a challenge, particularly when you've led a relatively sedentary life for a number of years. Enough of that! Now for the product and how it's working. I chose the ground option to see what I'd wind up with. A nice textured product that, to my amazement, was quite easily prepared by the cup instead of in bulk. Portion and steeping time was a "by guess and by gosh" thing but I've deduced that half a "tea-ball" and abut 7-8 minutes steeping in water brought to a boil gives an apeasing, tasty and seemingly effective cup of tea. I was quite stiff and tight in leg and back muscles. After about a week and a half or two weeks I've begun to notice the beginnings of increased flexibility creeping over me. Like I said, at 65 it's not an easy thing to perform some of the kicks in particular. In fact, I pulled a groin muscle about a month or so ago and had difficulty even stretching out. Now, after the roughly 2 weeks of using the Flexibility decoction, I'm becoming looser and a bit more flexible. Next batch, and there will be a next batch, will be the whole and I'll prepare it as the directions suggest as a gallon at one shot. Good product and useful when combined with normal stretching exercises. Hope to make it through Orange Belt test next month and keep going (I've only been at it 10 months so far) to try to hit Shodan in the next year or so. (I can dream, can't I????)
