Hey I'm a medical student, it is my understanding that yes, massaging increases the blood flow to your muscles. Increased blood flow increases oxygen delivery to your muscles, which will then allow them to relax more easily and so 'loosens' them up. In addition to oxygen, it can increase release of Nitric Oxide, a substance that causes skeletal muscle relaxation. Keep up the good work!
I’ve made 6 new skills this week, one of my greatest breakthroughs in the sport of gymnastics, I worked on them for 9 months and they finally all clicked-there was in fact no better feeling than checking off these skills from my bucket-list. You’ve earned your rings and you are one of my greatest inspirations. Best of luck this quad!
No need to apologize for lack video/content. when you do publish its great quality . I really love the positive energy and enthusiasm. Also a treat when I see them... I actually save them for morning viewing as a great start of my day when they are available. (but again no pressure to produce more frequently). Best to you and yours!
The barbershop I used to go to (here in Japan) would use something like that massage gun, run it all over shoulders and upper back after the hair cut. Not sure about the science behind that but it sure reduced my shoulder pain.
I love seeing these training videos, it would be super interesting as well to hear a bit from Luke and yourself how you guys go about constructing a new routine.
Great video covered a lot. Good to see your training. Maybe your overall fitness improved from better diet and off time recovery. That will help with acquiring new skills , too. Better start a shelf or wall for all your Olympics mementos. Ever thought of Skill Shares for sponsoring your videos and stepping up your video editing? I've seen it on other vlogs and vloggers give them 👍 That segment on the trampoline is crazy. It would be awesome if @GoPro can send you a camera that you can wear on a headband. That'd be awesome. 💚🤸🏆☘️🍀

Another awesome video. You are such a humble person. It's great to watch your upbeat personality.
I didn't expect to be so entertained by Luke fumbling with a mat for twenty seconds.

Will you be posting a video with your view on what happened during the World Champs?

My daughter is competing today in level 5 under 12 today and i feel sick.

You should but a go pro and attach it to yourself
