I’m working on getting a free Ebook to you guys that will have all these exercises programmed for you. When it’s out it’ll be here: Stan.store/DavidThurin Stay Flexy!
If you could make a little video where you go over a basic sort of routine for someone who has never worked out and wants to get themselves into shape that would be awesome , love what you do ❤
My intro to fitness was programs from Beachbody. They had a lot in the first place now they have a ludicrous amount of programs that cover pretty much any niche you want. But if you want a semi-traditional free/body weight workout the programs from Tony Horton are good; Power90 (old), P90 (updated) and Power30 are great beginner programs that focus on building fundamental strength, flexibility and good form. And if you feel like you've mastered those you can move up to P90X and beyond. I started those in 2008 when I was 18. I've been very inconsistent over the years but I know the amount I did them kept me more flexible, stronger and less injury prone than the average person. And now 15 years later at 33 I'm the most consistent I've ever been lifting an average of twice per week this year so far. I'm still overweight but I'm somehow 260lbs, fit into smaller clothes than last year at 250 lbs, and do two sets of total body with three sets of pushups and can do friggen 10 pushups per set. That was my biggest benchmark ever.
@@capilger totally! I work with elder people and it's very common that they come to the hospital cause they fell in the floor and couldn't get up. If people were sitting more on the floor they'd automatically practice getting to from the floor! Sounds so simple but it's super important to be strong enough to be able to get up from the floor. Surprisingly many old ppl can't do that.
I haven't been able to deep squat my whole life even though I am quite flexible. I introduced your stretches into my routines, started being consistent with it and now I can actually do it! Only took 1-2 months. Thank you!
Awesome! Now work on joining the five minute squat club. That turns it into a resting (!) position, and you'll be able to hang out there while working on stuff on the ground. It makes weeding or spot cleaning the floor a lot more comfortable. The progression is easy. Start by trying to stay there for 15-30 seconds everyday, and ramp up the time as comfortable. Your phone probably already has a stop watch. (I wasn't able to do any of this until my mid 30s, either)
As an asian I never thought that people could not do this, I've never deliberately stretched at all but this squat feels no different from standing to me.
@@edem4135babies have a higher center of mass because of bigger heads relative to their body, they also have undeveloped bones. It’s much easier for a baby to deep squat than a full grown adult because of their anatomy, not just because of culture of sitting down
as a tall person, i've never understood why everyone can't dunk a basketball. Do you see the fallacy here? There are anatomy differences. Some people need to widen their stance or turn their feet out a little more or bend over more. It's lever physics.
@@MicukoFelton - it’s the same in that anatomy differences are physical limitations/benefits. For fully grown adults, Hip socket shape and femur, tibia length absolutely matter. Same for side splits. Not everyone will be able to do side splits the same way due to hip socket. It’s genetic. Basically, my point was that a tall person who can dunk a basketball might say “I don’t understand why everyone can’t dunk. It’s so easy.” Not everyone can dunk - obviously. Not everyone can EASILY do a deep squat with feet point straight forward and close together (without heels raising). Some people will need to widen stance and point feet out to some degree and lean more forward. It’s physics and anatomy.
As is mentioned in this video, be careful about deep squats if you have any reason to be worried about your knee joint stability! I have wiggly joints (i.e., moderate hypermobility and weak leg muscles), and I subluxed my patella on two separate occasions while trying to stand out of a deep squat! I was able to strengthen my knee joint after a few weeks of PT, which made the whole joint feel more secure. I'm going to use the excellent info on this channel to keep getting stronger and to help support my flexy joints!
I think unless a joint is totally shot you need a plan to get it stronger. I’ve skied and played basketball on an ACL knee over the last 20 years but I can’t do a deep squat. I’d like to
this video is incredibly important for anyone who does lots of heavy lifting at their job or enjoys a lifestyle that has you working with heavy objects. lowering yourself to the ground with a straight back and being comfortable while doing so makes heavier lifting less difficult and saves your knees from pain/failure in the future
Breathing matters a lot here too! Ankle muscle spindles communicate directly with the spinal cord so that we can catch ourselves when we fall. So a lot of times when we stretch our ankles we are fighting our nervous systems because it needs to be extremely relaxed. Breathing in through the nose for 4 seconds and out through the mouth for 8 seconds can override this reflex!
Any muscle spindle is communicating directly with the spinal cord, the real question is if the activity of the muscle is regulated, at least partly, by the autonomous nervous system only. Anyway, mobility is mostly about neural adaptation: the muscle is not elongating, is the neural system that is learning that those deep range of motions are safe and it's not sending the signal to keep the muscles contracted for protection (of any kind, not only from falling, even just holding the weight of the body when standing). Breathing is very useful for a downregulation of the autonomous nervous system, so even if the reason you described is inaccurate the suggestion is backed up by science!
It also helps to activate the antagonistic muscle to the muscle you're stretching (ie flex your tibialis when stretching your calf), better known as Sherrington's Law
Hey man just wanted to say I love your content! I think it would be cool if you made a playlist if a whole assortment of stretches to do for your entire body as the stretches are a little scattered through your channel but love what your doing!
Great video! I really enjoyed this longer routine format. I love your videos on TikTok and Instagram, and the deep squat is a skill I’ve been trying to work towards, so I’m excited to start incorporating this routine into my week 🧡
David your stretching follow-along videos are AMAZING! Please do more! 5 or 10 mins would be great, as well as long form 30ish mins. I'll be doing your stretching videos daily. Wonderful stuff thank you!
You did such a great job. It’s the last ten years of everyone’s info on getting a deep squat…. But only the essential stuff that actually works. So good. This is your jam man.
Omg this video hits the spot my range of motion in my knees and ankles is terrible and I’ve been struggling with squats for years. Thanks so much. I’ll try it out and hope for the best. Have an awesome day!
I love your videos! Been inspiring me to get back into stretching along with my strength building that I want to do. Thank you for being flexy to help us be flexy! ✨💖🙌
I love your videos man, I started lifting consistently a month or two ago and use your ten minute stretch routine every time before I head to the gym. Was curious if you would ever make a home workout routine video? I want to start doing home workouts on my off days and you seem very insightful!
I LOVE your channel, bro! 39, and never been super flexible but lost even more as I've gotten older. Your videos are giving me the confidence and guidance to take control of my flexibility. 💯
I can vouch. I used to not be able to do this, but over time practicing stretching into it and holding, i can now! Buut, im still not as comfy as most that been doing it thier whole life that can sit for prolonged times but i can for a few mins, so i just gotta keep doing it 😊 thats the key. Them muscles are tight or/and untrained
Hello David, can you make a video on stretches that focus your hamstrings only? Your other videos have been so helpful for the rest! Your content is really enjoyable☺️
I did the soleus stretch and raise and wow was it tight. I'm going to keep working on it because I've been trying for some time to improve ankle mobility but before this channel there wasn't that good of content on it. At least it wasn't easy to find.
Thank you so much for the explanation❤❤❤ Watching this video gift me more understanding and confidence for me to help my 70+ old dad exercise his lage better. His couch potato habit is making his leg worse after out form hospital..
Just started watching your videos and been following along for two days and I'm already stating to see improvements, these are amazing. We could use some new content. :D
I thought I try it today cause one of my heels doesn't touch the ground when I deep squat. I just did it once and it touched the ground! I still can't hold it for long but I'm sure if I keep doing this I'll get better. Thank you David!
I started to deep squat a few years ago simply because my knees are bad. If I kneel at all on the floor, I really regret it, so I have to be able to deep squat to do tasks such as cleaning, gardening, feeding the cats etc. It did feel really tight at the front of my shins at first, but within 2 weeks or so, it was fine and it's been easy ever since. I'm very inflexible in every other way (so I've downloaded one of your ebooks)
it's my dream to do a shoot the duck on ice, I've been trying to do the deep squad for over a year, doing exercises from other videos but no results, I was about to give up, I've never seen the variation of bending the knee in the exercises, I'm going to try it! thank you for giving me new hope ✨
I've just come across your channel a few weeks ago and I consistently stop and watch every one I see or that is recommended by our AI overlords. I love your straightforward approach and CLEARLY incredible abilities. I just turned 41 and I can tell you that the forth decade has me looking back ever so fondly on my youth. I've never been able to do the deep squat and honestly thought it was something that really was not possible. After watching this video, I'm going to make the effort and see what my aging bones/muscles/tendons/allofthethings are actually capable of. After what I've noticed recently in my body, "stay(ing) flexy" is not just a 10/10 catch phrase, but a real necessity in aging without injury. TL:DR Your channel kicks. Will perform prescribed exercises.
I recently found your channel, and I've been watching all of your videos that get recommended to me (which, I'm pretty sure, is why I'm getting so many of your videos recommended). …I'm not entirely sure why I watched this all the way through, given that my initial reaction was a simple confidence that I could do it, but after trying a deep squat and finding that the only complaint I got was from my ankles being folded up, I might try some of those ankle stretches.
i recently saw some young men (early 20’s) doing deep squats and asked to join. I could do it way more than any of them and am 15 years older. Recommended this channel. stay flexy!
Half-slav and same, squats are not an excercise for us. It's a natural resting position. (Fr I don't do any stretching or whatever abd can rest in a squatting position forever)

I've learned deep squat with no special exercizes. The reasason is that in order to take a dump in my dorm's toilet you have to squat. After a while it's just became natural to squat fully relaxed hells on the ground for prolonged periods of time.
I think he's talked about this in some of his shorts. Basically he said the "mobility exercises" you see out there are just dynamic active stretches under a different name.
I really enjoy your videos! I do have a question regarding strengthening knees using only the body. I have a 25 year old knee injury, have had multiple surgeries, physical therapy sessions, shots (Euflexxa, Cortisone, PRP, Ozone, Prolotherapy), but nothing has been able to help much. Well except the PRP injections (platelets taken from my blood), those seemed to have tightened my ligaments so my stability has come back. With that, I struggle to find exercises to strengthen my knee and leg; my 9 year old has larger quads than me at 43! Can you recommend any exercises to help me strengthen my knees and legs? Thanks in advance, and thanks for making these videos!
Is there any way you can please make a video regarding a weekly stretching routine?? Is there anywhere specific I should start? I want to get as flexy as you!!
If you could make a little video where you go over a basic sort of routine for someone who has never worked out and wants to get themselves into shape that would be awesome , love what you do ❤
Start by just sitting on the floor any chance you get. Life changer.

@@jefffrasca4054i want to be able to do resting squat so bad. im looking forward to it
I love how you do all of this in a close space. For us with not a lot of space at home this makes me feel better
That’s true very inspiring to see how through stretching we can change our lives even in a small area, where there’s a will there’s a way 👍
As an asian I never thought that people could not do this, I've never deliberately stretched at all but this squat feels no different from standing to me.
We are born with the ability to deep squat. Just observe babies/toddlers. But some of us lose it as squatting is not usual in our lifestyle/culture.

Yep I'm also adding that. Lightweight baby!
I have always been able to do the primal squat without a problem even though my ankles, knees, hips, and now my feet have always given me trouble.
Thank you so much, I love your videos!! Could you please show us how to do a dévelopé right? I always feel pain in my hip flexor when I try and I'm afraid I'm doing something terribly wrong...
Make a videos on elbow and shoulder mobility
Somehow, despite having lost my ability to do splits about 8 years ago, I can actually do this deep squat. Until about 2 years ago I had no idea that it's actually challenging and am just used to doing it at random 😅. Pretty cool that you're teaching people how to do this.
If You could make more materials on lower back stretches and building the power of lower back i will be really grateful :)
it's attractively painful! love it specially the hip one. burning sensation is addictive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Piece of cake. Everyone can do it.
Greetings from Poland.
But for a full slav squat you gotta include a bottle of alcohol in front of you and a cig in your mouth.
