This comment is for the algorithm. I discovered your channel less than half an hour ago and have watched six of your videos already. I love your communication style! You’re great at this.
thank you so much!
Same here. I've been horribly stiff, and have ten years of daily mobility work done, and her channel is opening my eyes. Maybe I can have mobility after all.
Great channel! Thanks
Agreed! Already very helpful.
Same! Just found this channel there now and I'm hooked on the content!
love this channel. easy, straight to the point, fast, perfect.
you make that last stretch look so easy! I hope I can get to your level one day
Just found you and love your videos, I'm at 3:30 am with insomnia and having a great time with you learning new moves...I love to stretch. Thanks
Just subscribed. Have looked at several videos today. My bio: 64y/o male. 15 year history of hip, thigh, leg pain. Extremely tight all over. Rounded thoracic back. Hip flexion dominant with poor upright posture. I am in anterior pelvic tilt. Poor core strength. Limited leg abduction angle. Feels like there is limited proprioception in my feet and walking is like always going to be the next trip. Your videos are well presented. My goal is to be able to do the Asian squat. My generation is in great need of increased strength and flexibility. Hope to keep you posted on my progress!
Any progress?
Your videos are phenomenally informative and succinct! I'm so happy I stumbled across the channel.
I’ve been enjoying all your workouts on here and great advice 👍🏼 thank you so much
Thank you for sharing! Amazing stretches!
Loooove this new advices series💙 thank youuuu
I used to do these 30 years ago before I hurt my knees and back. The point is not to ever quit exercising and stretching.
Terrific stuff. Thank you. I had been doing the stretch in the way you recommended against in the thumbnail photo!
Thanks for the tips! Wonderful stretches
Great and very helpful videos thank you so very much.
Thanks so much for this one especially-right up my alley and much appreciated !❤️🙏💕
I, too, also only recently saw your channel come up on my feed. I already did your suggestions regarding squats! I definitely needed these sets of instructions. Keep up the excellent work!
I love your guidance and your happy/bubbly personality. :-)
These felt great! I liked the last one. It was intense but really felt a relief/release in my quads. I did your hamstrings and nerve glide yesterday. Thoroughly enjoying your work.
Ouu... the fourth one's good - and it stretch both quads at once! Thanks! :)
Love your videos so so much!! Especially the detailed footage of the movements. So helpful!! Thank you 😃
You're so welcome!
Great video
Thank you
Thank you so much for this video I do these stretches before skating they're perfect 👌
What a SUPER MOVES!
You can get a really good stretch when you squeeze your abs as hard as possible. Doing this with the hurdler's stretch technique helps when you want to include the abs. You could even do crunches while you are stretching to help your back stay flat before you go to bed.
Hmmm, gonna give this one a go! Many thanks- love learning some cool new poses! You’re doing us a great service 🏃♀️🚴🏼♂️🌿🧘🏼🙏
Thanks
OMG! This is hard to do. Thank you for this video. I have to practice now....
Omg I need to try the last one🤩
Loving your channel, its very easy to follow for a beginner. Videos are great to and it would appear I also follow your helpers channel.
that bridge pose is indeed a crazy stretch! I can barely rock my towards the back of my head before the hamy's go tight. Challenge accepted! ❤ 🎉
Excellent 👍👍
This last stretch is what I've really needed but didn't know what do do
love your stretches! would be cool to have these in real time, with the actual times we're supposed to hold them, to easily add into a playlist :)
I have lots of follow along classes on my channel! You may want to look up 'anti-desk yoga class' for a class that targets this area!
@@Livinleggings ooh great thank you!!
Beautiful 💓
Hi.I would like to ask,what type of yoga I can do with osteoarthritis?
I've seen a few of your videos and finally decided to sub and make a stretching playlist outside of my regular "exercise" playlist.
I have some knowledge of stretching and a few books dedicated to it, however your content is much more comprehensive by going into small details about what not to do and why, how to do it "exactly right", and harder variations.
I'll keep watching as well as reading and adding books to my library for a physical reference, but I'm wondering if there's ones you'd recommend for athletes and/or Martial Artists? I have "Ultimate Flexibility" by Sang H. Kim and it's only so-so.
Also if there's classes/lessons/activities you'd recommend for enhancing mobility and flexibility, as I find I'm not motivated at home and I don't make enough time for it on my own, or get bored and do other things instead.
I don't really like taking Yoga classes because I find they usually don't do adequate warm ups before static stretching, or I end up being cooled down from my own warm up before the classes start. There isn't really Tai Chi in my area that is accessible for me. And I've never tried pilates but might go for that.
I like how you say, " oh just do this or that" like I could even attempt the first quad stretch without paralyzing myself. lol 😆
If you're knees are sore what exercises would help to releve them. Like your videos.
Liked and Subscribed (All).
Love your videos and socks 😁
Such a babe! Thanks for sharing the stretching variations. Too helpful..
How long would you suggest holding for?
Excellent stretches thanks!! but best thing is still those socks 😂😍🧦
One way I do it is on lying on my side too making sure my hips are pressed forward for max stretch, stretching top leg
Can you think of any reason why I simply cannot bend my leg back from the knee without getting awful cramping in the thigh...to the point that I basically cannot do it? I have tried to discover why this is or how to "fix" it but cannot get a good answer. If you have any idea, please please let me know
No way on those last one! Lol im 61 and havs been sitting in a truck for 31 years. Lol i cant waut to try. Also, i live the educational part of your videos!
Please make a video on how to take your feet forward between de hands in sun salutation, i've been traying but never reach xc
Super video. In the hurdler's stretch, what is the benefit of turning the bent leg out to the side compared to keeping it parallel to the straight leg as I have usually practised it?
Not a huge deal of difference to the demands on the quads or hip flexors themselves, but allows for the pelvis to more easily posteriorly tilt which is where it wants to be for an optimal hip flexor stretch!
@@Livinleggings Thanks Liv. Maybe not a huge issue for me as posterior tilt usually comes easily to me - it's anterior tilt that I struggle with. I'll try both ways and see if I can tell the difference.
@@Livinleggings I do this with both knees bent... is that ok, or maybe too much strain on the knees? (ie lying all the way back down with both knees bent)
Thanks for this video.
The stretches are exactly what I need and what I should be doing every day as I am a guy and I need more flexibility for my water skiing and barefooting.
Great video… Thanks so much.

Amazing resource for the inflexible people like me 😭
I have leg injury due tl accident i cant get my leg straight i feel stiffness in my knee. Can i still do this
Hello there! I have patellar chondromalacia in both knees (more in the right one). My orthopedist recommended me to strength the quads. Are these exercises healthy for my knees? What do you recommend?
as someone who's mindful of my knees, i know the hurdle stretch isn't great for them, and i would definitely use more cushion under my knee in that lunge stretch. I don't know about your specific issues and disclaimer: i'm not a doctor. :)
I would run these past your orthopaedist and let them be the one to advise what is suitable as they are aware of your specific issues 🙏🏼
Kneesovertoesguy
Do it!!!
Thank me later...
@@JJBpilot I am 70 and could not sleep because when I laid down the spurs in my knees and hips were unbearable. After 3 days of doing only 10 minutes of backwards walking I was able to lay down again without pain. The guys name is Patrick who has the Kneesovertoesguy videos.
Forget about the 4th one for me. How many repetitions each?
Why does the runners lunge variation cause my hamstring to cramp?
I started to cramp just watching :) Baby steps, baby steps...
are you a physical therapist?
Can anyone do it or start at any age?
I always cramp in my hamstrings when I try to stretch them. Any suggestions?
The part at 0:46 is so scary for someone like me with knee problems. I trembled seeing this.
My knee would literally explode trying the second one lol
I get leg cramps when I do this. Ouch!
I love your style and you explain the "why" which is important. BUT....some bigger curvier girls....aka..me...can't get into such positions.I never was flexible when I was in my best shape and "skinny"so maybe its a me thing...but I still want to stretch and maybe one day get there. Videos targeting us curvy girls would be so welcome. I would love maybe if you can point me to some videos where I can feel accomplished and not like I'm getting no where...if that makes sense.
As an obese person who is flexible, you just need to keep doing your stretches and you will get there.
I definitely love your socks.
If I was alarmed when you did the half frog, thinking you broke your leg...Yeah I might not be as flexible as I thought I was...better start working on it =)
2:28
I have watched several of your videos but practically everything you do bends the osteoarthritic knee with a nodule grown out the back of it in a way that is impossible. I can't do a standing quadricep stretch either, but, also can't do lying on my tummy. I do a quadricep stretch lying on my side.
The end screen video for hamstrings is missing here. At least this time for me.
I feel like the 4th stretch would break my neck... if I ever even got that flexible 🤣
all of these would break my neck, my back, ...my whole body will be shattered on the mat! lol
@@TheFancyCakery 😂😂😂 I actually tried one of these.. let's just say it didn't even go
@@asugarholicslife and u skinny! Imagine me??!! Nope!
@@TheFancyCakery 😂 me skinny? NOPE!
Make sure your mobile is close at hand, so when your leg breaks you can easily phone for an ambulance :)
Hahaha:)
My kneecap just died watching this
My quads are so tight, I can’t even stand straight without arching my lower back 😭
I'm 100 pounds overweight and currently down about 15 pounds. The paramedics would need to be called if I attempted any of these stretches lol.
At this present time I couldn’t get into any of those positions lol
Same. I need to video that is for working up to this video. I can maybe do a basic bridge briefly. Part of the issue is I can't get the back of my thigh anywhere near my calf.
My comment might sound silly or stupid but is there any exercise to increase the height after age of 25 😂😂😂
These arent stretching ma legs, i is to flexy
WAY too advanced for me sadly 😂
0:20 Knee Stretch
1:00 Half Frog
1:40 Runner's Lunge
2:22 Bridge Pose
"The super bendys might be able to turn their fingers forward"
F-U. Now you're just showing off and making me feel inadequate.
🙄
@@Livinleggings I wasn't serious at all. I gave it a try and it didn't go so well.
0:37 this is really not a male friendly stretches 💀
I could NEVER do that last stretch… my big toes don’t bend…it would be impossible for me
Thank you
