Awesome! I call the "fuzz" "jelly" (Jell-O, in the States), b/c fascia and jelly are colloids. Hard when it is cold and has insufficient moisture, like a jelly in the fridge. but bring it out of the fridge, or introduce friction (movement), and it becomes pliable again.
Stretching is so important and I have to say I'm a bad massage therapist and don't stretch like I should. I keep telling myself I want to institute a stretching regimen, but then I let myself off b/c I don't have more than a few simple stretches in my mind. It's hard to create the habit when it's not there.
I stumbled on this thread and will definitely be going through it more, lots of good information. I've a lateral hamstring "twang" at the moment, though, and I promised myself I'd actually stretch it lightly this morning instead of sitting at the computer until I have to leave.
