thank you man. I was so strict about the times I exercised until I found your channel. I finally achieved a 10 second handstand after just moving a ton. I'm less agitated to everything. My favorite channel man
Insights and mobility... Been a while. This is great Josh. Thx a lot!
Love your follow along routines. Listen to them daily.
I would have preferred the 3 minute reading to be at the end rather than at the beginning.
Yep🥃

I do these stretchings every morning right after waking up, for years. Really great results as I don't have back pain, knee issues and can walk 2 hours a day everyday with no problem at 70
So cool to meet someone on youtube who is 70
Some things are just good genetics or something else but we never know.
@@LilaLacktrichterling there are a great many out there
@@LilaLacktrichterlinghe was 52 when UA-cam was started.
I do those things daily and have been for years, still get pains and aches. There isn't any magical formula and sometimes it's pure luck and genes.
“I used to punish my body, because I thought that’s what men do.”
Ohhhh how I needed to hear this. Thank you ❤
I am a 51 year old man with OA who broke his body firstly by over training and then through neglect - this channel is a regular feature in my media consumption. Like a good book, starting my day with Strength Side nourishes the soul, calms the mind and heals the body. I got my wake up call 5 years ago, and since that moment I have been taking consistent action to heal and strengthen my body, mind and spirit. Today whilst still living with daily pain, I am the fittest and strongest I have ever been. Thank you for making the world a better place. 🙏💜😊
You shouldn't live with daily pain. Have you tried consulting with a Gonstead chiropractor, they do work miracles.
I’m recovering from a broken neck & collapsed lung. It was a freak accident that occurred during a training ride. (competitive endurance cycling). I loved riding a bike. I no longer can.
I have a titanium rod in my neck, and I’m fused from C3 to C6. I’m so fortunate to be upright & fully functional, other than stiffness & limited ROM in my c spine. But I’ve been stuck on these limitations instead of having gratitude for all that I still have. I stumbled upon this channel and am profoundly grateful.
One of the best channels for mind-body balance and composure.
These videos are making the world a better place. Grateful.
Was thinking of turning the saturdays into a full body workout after 4 days of workouts during the week, but now I changed my mind and decided to listen to my body, because I feel like my lower back and my body overall needs this type of morning routine more than anything else. Thank you for that.
Saturday is a great day to nurture your body and treat it to a good long stretch. It's like dessert after eating your veggies all week.
Amazing mindset. The intro speech is so deep. Definitely not hollow feel-good spirituality. Truth with a capital T we ALL are supposed to elevate ourselves towards.
Thank you so much. I am focusing on posture and mobility now, I see a difference.
I WILL WATCH THIS VIDEO EVERY MORNING, THANK YOU FROM THE PHILIPPINES
Hello Strengh Side. I just want to say thank you, because you are really helping me changing a lot to positiv. Not just about my body, which was really stiff the last years and had multiple problems with my lower back (i'm 21 y/o).
I also feel a lot of improvement about my mindset!
You're old morning routine was the start for me grinding in those "live better" part. I did the streching every morning since april last year. I got so flexibel, im beating my friends in twister! 😀
And now, i really like this new routine, most because of the shoulder part, where i am still a bit unflexibel. I also like the bridge and the sitting-knee-to-chest-strech.
And i love the just listening to the beginning. We need to remind ourselves about the things, that are said there! I'm already starting to streach my hamstrings and periformis muslce.
Take on, what you're doing! You are giving so much to the people, who are watching you're videos.
Thank you so much, helping me turning my live in to a healthy and good one! 🙏🙏🙏
I hope, that you're reading this comment.
Sorry about my language, i'm from Germany. 😅
Maybe an Evening / before Bed Routine too for the next videos?🙌
Oooh yes agreed!
spent last summer with some friends doing strength side daily. what a positive difference it made! winter came, and we all became busier with work and play (skiers & boarders). I am having the best winter in a decade. I stopped taking time for strength side. woke up two mornings ago to headache, very stiff shoulders, lower back... well I am back. two mornings of strength side and the improvement is immediate, not only physical but the positive mental energy. I will be joining strength side. thanks
This was delightful as I sipped my warm green, ginger, peach, with a hint of cinnamon tea and took notes on the absolute timely information on emotional control, then stretched in ways my body APPRECIATED! Thank you…🙏🏾
Your voice is so assuring and thank you for sharing excerpts from Derek Sivers book, "How to Live". I really want to read this for myself. I have a need to get inside my own head for awhile and go on a quest for that elusive "contentment".
You make me want to be a better person. Thank you.
I am in awe with every muscle that is visible on his body, and the lighting exerts such a lovely glow on his skin here. The human body is incredible once you start taking full care of it. The best thing is that could be this too!
The reading was amazing. Just changed my whole day. Gonna make it a regular listen! And of course the stretching
The scenery at the beginning of the video is both stunningly beautiful and peaceful. The stretches are incredibly helpful. Thank you Josh and Trevor.
It is such a joy to follow you along over the years and I continue to be awed by the blessings that you share with the world. I woke up this morning utterly stiff from 4 days of moving houses and this morning stretch changed everything. Great follow along. While I was listening to you at the beginning I thought it would be so nice to have an audio book read by you Josh or meditations in which you read from inspirational texts with pauses. Your voice is so calming and beautiful. Also BIG UP for the new strength side page - I think I will join. Take care guys and have a good Now.
Read to us more often please. Haha. So good!! Great entree for the movement to follow 🙌🏽
I have a neurological disorder called dystonia (no cure) love your videos with these stretches it makes a big difference on my body, I am 62yr. Sending hugs from Las Vegas
Glad the stretches are helping Irma ❤️
Hi, I’m not medically trained, but as someone with substantial neurological troubles myself because of an injury, I thought it might be helpful to you if I said the following here:
An under-appreciated remedy (not necessarily a panacea, but it can sometimes be that too) for most (if not all) neurological disorders, is meditation. To do it effectively; start small and simple: focus above all on building up a reliable habit; at the beginning you should be doing the meditation by setting aside some time in a regular window each day, and sitting in a relaxed upright position (say, in a straight-backed chair without a pad), and concentrating on your breath (breathe in for a slow count of 4, then breathe out for 6) for a fixed period (eg. set a 15-45 min timer, depending on what you can manage). During this time try to not become focussed on any of your thoughts. If you find your attention becoming attached to something, try to gently guide it back to your breath. There are lots of directions a practice like this can be evolved once you have that down, but getting this stage right is very important for later development, and will do you a huge amount of good on its own. I’d challenge you to try it.
Thanks for making these videos. It really gives me some sense of peace and calm. Especially when you feel like you have not done enough. 😊
Loved it !!!
Woke up to this, and I already feel my day is going to be great!
This was really well done. The music, commentary… the reading and the stretches. Great way to start the day
This was a sad realization for me. This simple stretching made me sweat. Few years back this routine would be nothing for me. Thanks for your years long effort to make us more flexible, strong and calm. 💪❤️
I just started watching your videos and love the stretching and work out tips. What I love most is this reading 👏🏾
love you strrength side, genuinely. been watching you since quarintine and you have changed my life
Omg i woke up with so much anxiety and hearing your passage in the beginning & following this routine really helped me get back in tune with myself. Thanks so much Strength ❤️
Happy to hear that!
Don't usually comment on YT or social media but felt obliged to say thank you, sir, for letting us into your world and sharing this routine. Truly grateful.
Thanks for being here
@@Strengthside Hey , I was wondering if you could talk about putting you knees in front of your toes when doing a split squat ? I just watched your calisthenics video and I'm going to start doing the circuit a few times a week! But I always heard on fitness video to never let the knee go in front of the foot and can't find much information on that ! Thank you guys !
@@rakadoni8403 Check out the bullet proof knees video here on the Strengthside channel, buuuuut you should definitely check out the channel called Kneesovertoesguy, I mean the name says it all and he is a wealth of knowledge for knee health and ability for athletes and people that like to move. Cheeers!
don´t try to come up special with "not commentin usually anywhere"...
@@instantdislikechannel5699 Statistically most don't comment at all. YOUR comment is entirely redundant.
Been following this routine for a few weeks but it just hit me that those last few words are just pearls of wisdom. 🙏🏼
Love this ❤
That was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and very inspiring! I deeply enjoyed the meditative reading as the introduction, a relaxing stretch for the mind. I felt very nourished from this practice. Thank you for sharing such incredibly wholesome content!
Thanks :)
Great video! Ive been trying to incorporate more stretches into my daily life. This is just what I needed to get started
I needed every second, every syllable, of this. Thank you, truly.
Amazing. The universe delivers this wisdom to me. Thank you for the post.
Hey I really liked you reading the mindset thing! NEED MORE lol
Nice to hear you read how West meets East in the reflection. thank you.
This was fantastic! so grateful I found your page. I got more from this video than my morning workout. I can't wait to impanelment these stretches in my morning routine.
Favorite vibe of any video so far. Loved the intro✌🏻
Wow great video. Love the beginning intro, be a deep lake, silent and full of wisdom, feel intentionally.
Awesome opening stretches. And great reminder to be kind to our body. 🙏🙌👏☺️💯
fyi i have done these stretches for just 4 days in a row. to give you some context i have been seeing osteopaths and chiropractors for over 35 YEARS ... and these stretches (particularly the knees together/side to side) have accessed a part of my back that i have been attempting to get sorted and paid thousands of pounds .... i am hugely optimistic as i can just feeeeel my back and the relevant muscles saying "finally!" thank you,❤🙏 so very much.
that's awesome to hear. Sometimes some light movement and stretching is the best way to work through pain
Every day!
Thank you, best wake up routine I've ever found. I really enjoy the beginning passage to get into it as well.
I'm so grateful that I found your channel ❤ perfect beginning to every day 😊 Thank you
Can’t love the first 3 minutes of this video enough. Thank you
I’m going to this until new year non stop. Anyone wanna join me?
Love this. Physically exhilarating and mentally cleansing. Thanks 💓
As always, great video, great content.
Love your morning routine follow alongs! 😃
endless inspiration, delivered in astounding style, smooth speech helps create a really nice vibe
Beautifully put. These guys. 👍🏻👌🏻
Thank you for posting all the amazing content. I want you to know you are helping me regain my health; thank you
another awesome one! love to watch (on a bigger time scale) how you gently expand beyond 'just-focus-on-body' - heartfelt thanks for all you do and are!💚
You are not IN the universe, you ARE the universe, an intrinsic part of it. Ultimately you are not a person, but a focal point where the universe is becoming conscious of itself. What an amazing miracle.
Learning how to breath (various techniques for this) and relax your mind and body is the key to everything. From the moment you wake up until you fall asleep. Besides stress levels and such it helps enormously while streching, telling your muscles to relax in deep streches. Everyone can pick whatever "school" or "philosophy" they want to learn these. I like to think of the "monkey mind" (random emotions, occasions of "brainstrom" etc) and visualize the monkey in my head to recognize that I am in charge of the monkey, the silly things it sometimes brings to my mind.
Man, this one was amazing. Greetings from distant Bulgaria.
what a mind game to have Josh narrate Trevor's movement 😂 I was a little confused when I first started watching your videos, like wait are there two of them?
I am so glad I found this channel. it is the perfect combo of everything and so well paced. y'all were made for this! thank you 🌻
Ive noticed lately I have lost fluidity in my spine, which is so important for everything else. would you consider making a routine video for this specific topic? just focusing on like a spinal flow? I would love to see this! I so appreciate all of your routine videos like this one. your channel has become my go to for mobility every day. thanks again! ☀️🌴
Strength Side is a powerful elixir for mind, body, and soul
I am so grateful to have stumbled onto strength side and primal movement. Like a breath of fresh air. My best subscription since the advent of u-tube. Yes that ling
Hello, I have added this to my morning stretching routine.
Thanks for the positive intro ✌🏾
Yoga sessions make me feel so chilled, I enjoy the switch-off of the class for a bit of a calm mind.
Oooo...finally something new here.
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Just discovered your great channel. I'm in my early 40s and was seeking to implement strength training of some sort to help with longevity. I soon found that even in practicing the varied exercises, without even using weights, I could feel my joints "rejecting" the movements. By serendipity, your channel appeared.
I'm already feeling amazing just from a few days of your basic routines.
Thank you so much!
*that was traditional strength training that caused issues
Been waking up at 5 AM to go to the gym for the past few weeks. The weight is coming down but now its finally time for me to tackle my flexibility issues. Day 1 of me doing this on a regular basis. Thank you for the video.
I love your videos with these intros in nature.
This is great thank you, I love this video format.
I absolutely love this content!!!!
I can’t wait to come back to this vid., and follow along!!!!
I’m freakin thrilled!!!!
Y’all are amazing!!!!
Yo,
Thank you for naming that stretch, and saying it on here!!
I’ve been thinking if that specific stretch is called anything?
It’s my favorite as well, and I’m diggin what y’all call it, so I’m taking it! Chuckles
I love the over head frog stretch!
Thank you very much !! I felt so goooooood
Your routines have helped me with my hip injury immensely ty and keep up the great workouts. Also too me 3 months to realize there are 2 of you lol
Dig the flow Mr Hash, incorporating the motivational reading is just right and juicy. Dig the flavor…Living life tasting the health. Much love and thanks…That health and mindset is taking me to my first ever trip to France to paraglide the French Alps in Annecy day after my 55th BD…
Love This!!
I tried this and I feel so good. I am definitely adding this to my regular routine... love ya, keep making more inspiring videos. Am a fan 4life ❤️
@My Telegraph Strengthside Greetings 🙏 💖, thank u, am totally shocked...
@@uchea.007 It's a bot, sorry to say.
Thanks :)
I dug all the opening gems. I had to giggle though, these are the same pearls that get me blamed daily for “lecturing” by my teenage daughter! May you someday also have teenagers that lead you deeper into those lessons of silence. 🤜🏽✨🤛🏽
Thank You .
I have been following you guys for about a year, and I truly feel transformed. I’m 62 years old, and have always been physically fit, but as I aged, I needed to change my workout routine, from the hard, beast mode, building and maintaining lean muscles, to something less taxing. I have discovered that your stretching routine has given me what I strive for physically, in a more relaxed, tranquil way. I love the movement, the stretching, the hanging.. I now have a more awareness of my muscles, my balance has improved, and injuries are minimal. Thank you for these videos, my transition to where I am today would not have been possible without this knowledge. 🙏🏾🤸🏾♂️🧘🏾
much respect and thank you!
Thank you !!
Thanks for the amazing video!
Well, that hurt so good! Boy I hope to get two days in a row in on this. Thanks for your energy. As I beat the heck out of my body for about 27 years hiking, biking, running swimming weight, lifting tree, climbing, etc. etc. etc. are now at 69 years old. I’m happy to get through a stretch session.
Sitting next to a river is sooo good.. Just sit and literally look at time going by
I repeat this about every other morning with the reading! It puts me in the sweetest headspace. Please do more of these! ❤❤❤
Thanks man I needed this today
great morning stretch! thAnkh you !
The best videos are filled with helpful information & also entertaining; you're videos are both!! I like your humor. You're funny in English anyway😃
I subscribed & will look forward to exercises that will help keep my face lifted for as long as possible.
Thank you!
amazing stretches!
Feeling loving and grateful, thank you 🙏
Thanks :)
Love your channel!!!❤
You guys are the best
Great! Thank you.
Thank you for the spiritual and physical practices!!💙
Since spring of this year when I discovered you and the couch stretch I haven’t looked back and can profoundly appreciate you and how much this has changed my perspective and range of motion. My body is different
These exercises are very good and useful! I do similar with MovNat exercises. You explain everything very clearly! Great channel. Thank you ❤
Lovwed this routine thanks for sharing!!
Thanks so much for sharing. I am a yoga teachers. These are great stretches. Stretching with intentions. ❤️Positive affirmations so important. Feel good & move freely.
wow you are really evolving, love your growth and energy in this video. Been following you since 2019, happy to see you flourishing.
Cool to see the other gentleman join in. Just shows how our actions have ripple effects.
Awesome worm up excercise this morning, I feel much better stretching with you. Thank you.
I love your philosophy👍🏻
Derek Sivers is an amazing person!
Been completing this over the past 3 days, and what a difference this has on your productivity for the day. Not to mention how much better my body feels in the morning.
As a wise man would ask, what do you consider as success? For me, it’s certainly looking after yourself ❤.
Finding Strength Side has been a blessing...the basic stretches and beginners strength are amazing! The only one I follow and use now! Thanks so much for sharing
Thanks :)
You are so much serious and fun at the same time, which is outstanding. I really like your routine. I follow it and started 2 or 3 in a row; but different ones. By the way, I'm of mature age and it's very worth listening and doing what you let people know
