- keep improving my flexibility: after 25 years of sitting in front of computer my back is a mess. I've started stretching during 2019 but progress is slooooow - get back to doing more independent development after one year of working for an agency - rewrite my SAAS. Right now it feels like it hit plateau and I need to change few major things to get it to next level and hopefully get it to the stage to sustain me full time - build new building for wine production: it took me 4 years to get all paperwork done, now I hope construction is going to be faster

Yoga would be great for your first point. Dynamic vinyasa is a good workout for the mind and body, and it can be complemented with yin yoga to focus on flexibility even more.

  Yeah, yoga is something I am going to do, not sure which kind yet or if I want to attend classes or just do it solo.

    I cant recommend Omstars enough for solo work. They have tons of material to help develop fundamentals, though Id encourage you to use the videos to build a habit and then seek out a teacher.

What kind of stretching do you do. Is it just yoga in general or are there specific routines you started. After finally feeling the first tangible effects of extended bad posture, I'm looking to get ahead of this.

  I didn't follow any system, just tried stretching exercises I remember from my days of doing karate as a kid and another exercises I was taught on physiotherapy. You know basic stuff, trying to touch my toes while standing. Some hand stretching. I guess it was totally ineffective, but number of nights with migraines are down a lot. I want to start exploring yoga during 2020

    Careful with the toe touch, can aggravate certain back issues. Try diagnose with what you suffer and target the weaknesses. Generally cobra stretch type manoeuvres are a good starting point. Don't neglect some strengthening of the upper/mid back, even if it's just some resistance bands etc.

I improved my flexibility whithin 6 months by visiting a physiotherapist. I visited her once per month. She checked my angles and muscle strenght then gave me a custom routine of exercices and streches each time.
