I made Flexibility Express at 55, so the main difference between those two DVDs is 20 years of research and experience. The other difference is that Secrets of Stretching teaches resistance exercises and stretches designed specifically for fighters and martial artists who want powerful kicks, while Flexibility Express delivers simultaneous gains in strength and flexibility of the entire body for athletes in all sports. So, Secrets of Stretching covers flexibility and strength of the lower body only-that is, the hips and legs-while Flexibility Express covers the arms, shoulders, back, hips, and legs.Compared to Secrets of Stretching, in Flexibility Express the method is streamlined; the exercises are simpler, easier, but no less effective; and you get more information on those exercises.I can say that Flexibility Express is a distillation of my knowledge of flexibility and strength training, all that was published in Secrets of Stretching and Stretching Scientifically, and a lot that was not. This is why the DVD Flexibility Express is more expensive than Secrets of Stretching-just like a cognac is more expensive than the wine it was distilled from.
