Posted: 09 May 2020 11:06 PM PDT Have you made any milestones in your flexibility recently? Feel free to share stories/pics/videos, anything! How about any other fitness accomplishments you've made and want the world to know about because your friends and family just don't get it? Well, this is the thread where you get to share all that and inspire others at the same time! Also, if you got a question, just a reminder that tomorrow is Moronic Monday. ;) submitted by /u/AutoModerator [link] [comments]

Bumping in stretches: unsafe? Posted: 09 May 2020 12:54 PM PDT The recommended routine says "Do 10 small gentle bumping movements into the stretch". But I've heard that is supposed to be bad for you. For example: "The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons warns against bouncing stretches, as does the American College of Sports Medicine." source. Is there some difference between bouncing and bumping that I'm overlooking here? Is the advice to bounce unsafe? Or is the common recommendation not to bounce flawed? submitted by /u/TechnicalConference [link] [comments]

Elbows literally can’t straighten Posted: 09 May 2020 04:09 PM PDT It's something I was born with, arms that are completely unable to straighten. I have trouble doing some things such as push-ups for an extended amount of time. I have never injured my arms. What exactly is it? Can I get rid of it? submitted by /u/Kairos8ight [link] [comments]

Improve hamstring flexibility for deadlifts Posted: 09 May 2020 09:00 AM PDT I'm trying to increase my hamstring flexibility to improve my deadlift form using this stretch: https://s3.amazonaws.com/prod.skimble/assets/1470287/image_iphone.jpg Which is better and why: holding this stretch for 5 minutes once per day or holding a stretch for 1 minute 5 times a day? submitted by /u/hello_isitmeyoulook4 [link] [comments]

Specific exercises to unlock the hip flexors Posted: 09 May 2020 05:43 PM PDT submitted by /u/obaanu [link] [comments]

How long should I hold my splits for? Posted: 09 May 2020 09:24 AM PDT I stretch usually 5 times a week (I'm trying to do more though) and when I do stretch, I hold each splits (left, right, middle) for 2 minutes. Should I hold it for longer to get more flexible? Or should I just keep holding it for 2 minutes? submitted by /u/sauce_669 [link] [comments]
