Sometihng forgot to ask abot in the course of finding a good routine is if there is anything I should be careful about since I have extremely hypermobile joints. I've stiffened up a bit but I'm still really loose esp. in the lower back, wrists, shoulders, legs. I could do the splits past the horizontal point when I was younger but I'm not quite close now, and I could hold my hands together and bring them over my head and down to my loewr back. But I've stiffened up.
Now my concern is my wrists for one, which I've had tendonitis in (both of them) so now I tape them. I can touch my forearm with my thumb (try it)Anything else I should do?
Also, will my lower back flexibility be sometihng I need to take in accoutn for deadlifts or squats?
Finally, my left shoulder, my arm can come part way out of the socket (if I make it, but I don't anymore) It never seems to do it when I'm lifting, except it did once when I was running, and for some reason it made me fall flat on my face. Anything I should do to watch out for it? It's kind of weird because my right arm is normal while my left arm can rotate around in the socket about 75 more degrees.
I havne't seen any problems with these joint issues while lifting really (except for tendonitis in wrists) but is there anything I should be careful of?
