There's a sample of it on the 'Chu Minyi' video on youtube but AFAIK the whole set is not publicly shown.

On days I don't ride I do the Wu style slow form.

Also after exercising I tend to cool down with a full leg/body stretch mainly focusing on legs but also with back bridges

Occationally I'll go to a relaxed yoga class just to change things up. There was a decent athlete-focused yoga in Brixton in London that I went to Mondays which was a nice way to loosen things up that had been tightened by a weekend of hard cycling (I'd file this under 'rehab' or 'recovery' for sure)



I find the Wu style has a whole set for every joint in the body
I have never had a name for the set and only seen a few examples on the net
The 24 noi gung are also a set for total joint mobility
Tien gan are a complete set
As are Huangs sung ging
From FMA the rampilon exercises of arris are great
Any martial art that doesn't have a complete set of joint mobility exercises at the outset should most likely be avoided
Don't put power into the form let it naturally arise from the form
