This was brilliant, thank you. I love the way you ask about how our run went. It was good to reflect. And lots of creative new stretches..or clever modifications. So glad I found your channel. Can we have more 20 and 30 min post and pre run mobility and stretching.
Absolutely Jo, I will plan for some more. There’s some on the schedule too. I’m so glad you found my channel, I really appreciate your support in the comments 😊🙏
Had to comment again its my fourth time doing this stretching routine and its a pleasure every time, especially with the rain pouring in the background
Thank you for commenting again on this one Matthias, its so cool to see you keep coming back for more of it! Glad you enjoyed the ambient rain in teh background. Have a good weekend!
I don’t usually have the time for these longer videos but I got to go through this one today and it did not disappoint! This felt great. Thanks for another great video!
I loved this longer stretch, so much so that I could have fallen asleep on my mat😄. I appreciate you talking us through it so we know what we’re doing and why. Thankyou Ash
Thank you, my friend! First run in a while from ankle strain. I forgot how beautifully at home my body feels in a run--there's nothing like it. And I really forgot how delicious your stretches are after! Sending high vibes your way, and thank you for reminding me to journal---will have that cup of tea now! Happy weekend! :)
Started running again today after stopping because of wip pain. I did this stretch after the run and it was very relaxing. I hope stretching like this will prevent the pain from returning. Thank you for the video.
Thank you for stretching along and leaving a comment! I hope your running return is successful. You may need to strengthen your hips too, see how these videos feel... and if you keep getting pain seek medical advice and a running coach to have a look at your running form. ua-cam.com/video/99DJ_gLgXkA/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/ZJUBkL2wmxE/v-deo.html
Thank you for this session, it was a long weekend with many activities, and I needed a wind down. Run a half marathon today and can only echo what others are saying - I am injury free by consistently following your programs :-) thank you Ash !
Thank you for this video. I really appreciate that you have so many to choose from, and that they are varied in length so that I choose whichever is most suitable for the particular moment.
Another wonderful video. Thanks. I like how you point out succinctly the micro-movements and things to relax to feel the stretches without going to far in either direction.
Can't wait to hear from you Doreen, I genuinely feel gratitude when I see you coming back to my videos! I remember you starting out and wondering where you was going on this journey and you seem to be flourishing, well done!!
@@RunBetterwithAsh Been a slow process getting back to running but with your videos, encouragement and reading all the comments fellow runners post has made it fun and somewhat easier!!!
Great deep stretch , drove to a further away forest for a snowy cold run this morning, so didn't have immediate post run stretch, I was looking for a longer deeper stretch session tonight and as if by magic this video was there, feel so much more relaxed in body and mind now , great work as usual Ash 👍🏼
Amazing, its like I know just what you need Colin!! I love the sound of your forest runs, I try to get out onto the trails as much as possible its bliss!! Thanks as always for your comments Colin 😀🙏
That’s great to hear Francesca 😊 so glad I could help you after your 22 miler! Well done on that run, thanks for stretching with me and commenting as always 🙏🙌🏻
Nice one Alex, so glad I can help with your marathon prep! Which one you doing? Your body will be grateful for the proper recovery routine, well done 🙌🏻😊
Great stretch! Getting ready to run a 10k at the end of the year. I haven’t been very good about post run stretching and now that I’ve started more regularly it sure does make a difference in my recovery 🏃🏽♀️
You are very welcome Marc, so glad I can help your recovery 😊 thank you for commenting to let me know, it’s great to read and learn more about people that are benefitting from my videos 🙏
Greetings from Subarctic Canada, from the 62° parallel. (My first post on YT ever haha). Thank you for your videos, Ash, I've been following you and exercising with you for about a year now. There's been a huge difference in the speed of my recovery since I've made your warm-ups, cool-downs, and stretches part of my running routine. I just finished my stretch after my longest run ever! I came back from my birthday "30k-for-30yo" run, and this video left me energized and refreshed. I genuinely enjoy your content! It's been an amazing fall fun run with my friends to a beautiful day-use area by one of thousands of lakes here, in the Northwest Territories. They even surprised me with a support banner, a cake, and all dressed in my favorite colour (purple). I hope you don't mind me sharing my story, I love "chatting" with you via your videos. :) Thank you again, you're a great and kind inspiration!
Oh wow, thank you so much for sharing your story. I love to hear more about how my videos fit in with your life and running routine. What a fantastic idea for your birthday. Sending you best birthday wishes 🎉🎉🎉 I’m very humbled my videos have been able to connect with you in the Northwest Territories 😊 thank you so much again, I really appreciate your comment 🙏
Thanks Ash! Absolutely great. Thank you for giving us some of your time and knowledge. I do feel much better now. I first had the impression it will be boring, but actually it is great
That’s great to hear that you thought this was great 😊 so glad I could help you recover properly and feel better, thanks for stretching with me and commenting 🙏🙌🏻
Lovely stretch at the end of the day. Did one of your shorter videos right after my 5K run today and did this one after work, got out lots of creaks and tightness. Thank you for the invitations to pulse and wiggle, I’m finding it makes such a difference and I find the movement soothing!
Glad you enjoyed it Grace, so happy to help you stretch 😀 theres lots more to come from my channel to help you after your 5k's 👍 thanks for commenting 🙏
Feel lovely and relaxed after this stretch Ash. Just did 3k slow to test out my calf and it felt fine 😊. Really appreciate the videos. Nicola in London
Amazing Nicola, good idea to go slow and ease your way back in! Keep that mindset for a few weeks. Thanks as always for commenting to keep me updated, its great to follow your progress.
Really enjoyed this longer stretch Ash and especially the insights into how we are working our different muscles and joints. Helps to understand how the body works! I'm sat behind a desk all day so these stretches are perfect thanks very much :)
I can get a little bit more information into the longer videos Tracy so my brain loves the opportunity to talk 😂 luckily you enjoyed it and the information is not too much, thanks as ever for your comments 🙏
Well this may be a bit lengthy of a comment and I apologize for that. But this video was great today!!just what I needed. Been working very hard in the yard and my body was too tired for a run today. But I wanted to do something healthy for my body….so a stretch felt like a good choice. Well, this was a GREAT choice. So helpful and relaxing. Your instructions and reminders are so helpful!! Thanks Ash!!
I love the lengthy comment Heather, thank you so much for sharing this with me. Well done for deciding to stay active even though you have been in the yard working, you could have easily switched off and totally relaxed. Glad I could help you as always 😀👍
Thanks Ash! Great vid. I enjoyed it as well even I had already followed your 20-min post-run optimal recovery. Super helpful, especially after my speed workout tonight. I believe I will sleep better withou the tight muscles. I bookmarked this one. My fave!
Thx so much Ash. I was wondering if you might have a stretch for a post race. I’m assuming a post run would work but pushing it harder in a race I wondered if you might see a specific post race stretch routine. Thx.
As long as it’s not painful pop it’s likely normal. If it’s painful it could be any number of things, I couldn’t say without seeing it in-person. You may need to do some glute medius strengthening if those muscles are weak around the hip if it’s just general no pain popping. If it’s painful I would suggest getting it looked at. 👍🏻
Thanks again Ash. I enjoyed the longer video. Quick question: for the calf stretches, I tried adjusting the knee up or further down, didn't really feel anything. Am I doing it right.
Its difficult to say if you was doing it right or not Brian, you may just not have had tightness in that position if you didn't feel it. If it was live class I could tell you. Thanks for leaving a comment as always 🙏
I'm happy that you feel stretched and relaxed Jaime, I really appreciate you following along with the longer ones too!! Thank you too for always commenting!
I am amazed by the difference your videos have made to my post run recovery. Persistent & recurring issues no longer exist, thank you so so much.
Brilliant, that’s so good to hear. Glad this helped after your run and my videos help you 🙌🏻 thanks for commenting 😊

Wonderful! Sounds like a lovely routine. I love your words about body feeling at home in a run, that’s so true 🙌🏻 thanks for your comment 🙏😊
Thank you ash this is a good stretch. I am repeating it over and over again if I need full body stretch
No problem Grace! So good to see you stretching with me as always. Thanks too for commenting 😀

That’s great to hear you can feel these subtle shifts 😊 so glad I could help you relax, thanks for stretching with me and commenting as always🙏🙌🏻
Thanks Ash, loved this one after a tough 3 hour marathon training session!😊
Well done on the 3 hour session Grace 😊

Greetings to Tulsa, Oklahoma 👋 from a small village in the North of England 😊 so great to see you stretching with me as always 🙌🏻
Thx so much Ash. I was wondering if you might have a stretch for a post race. I’m assuming a post run would work but pushing it harder in a race I wondered if you might see a specific post race stretch routine. Thx.
Great idea, I will get onto this and make one. I am 4 weeks ahead on my schedule at the moment so it won’t appear for a few weeks 👍🏻😊
Sounds great!
Thanks Ash! What do you recommend if my right hip pops throughout the stretching
As long as it’s not painful pop it’s likely normal. If it’s painful it could be any number of things, I couldn’t say without seeing it in-person. You may need to do some glute medius strengthening if those muscles are weak around the hip if it’s just general no pain popping. If it’s painful I would suggest getting it looked at. 👍🏻
