combining hanging and stretching question

I have been strictly hanging for 6 months and have had success however i feel it is time to shift my workouts some and add some manual stretches.

I have read all of DLD's routines, but would anyone with experience and success combining the two give me a few recommendations on what stretches they would incorperate.

from clamping, hanging, etc - i am pretty conditioned with kegals too - i could probably be able to do more advance moves as well as beginner.

thanks for your help

The combination of hanging and stretching is a good one. I would add in basic stretching first.

Basic Stretching: 3 Sets of each stretch below
Behind The Cheeks to the Left: 30-seconds
Behind The Cheeks to the Center: 30-seconds
Behind The Cheeks to the Right: 30-seconds

Straight Down to the Left: 30-seconds
Straight Down to the Center: 30-seconds
Straight Down to the Right: 30-seconds
Straight Down Rotary Stretches: 25-Cranks

Straight Out to the Left: 30-seconds
Straight Out to the Center: 30-seconds
Straight Out to the Right: 30-seconds
Straight Out Rotary Stretches: 25-Cranks

Straight Up to the Left: 30-seconds
Straight Up to the Center: 30-seconds
Straight Up to the Right: 30-seconds
Straight Up Rotary Stretches: 25-Cranks

After a while you can change things up with other stretches.

I think you will really benefit from the "on hands" manual work. There is something very unique about manual stretching, it allows you to be one with your body and feel the work you are doing. Hanging is great but there is little mental involvement. I think your choice of combination will offer the best of both worlds.
