| Why am I getting glute tightness when training for middle splits? Posted: 03 Sep 2020 10:00 PM PDT So I'm getting close to my middle splits. I just got my pancake fully flat today and my frog is almost fully flat!! Last week, I was going the pancake, I fully relaxed and I didn't realize I was all the way down to the floor (previously I was at least 3 inches off) until my right glute started tightening up. I wasn't sore or anything the next day, but my glute is still tight when I stretch in ways that it wasn't before. I took a few days off and then started stretching again hoping that the stretching might help, and it definitely has. Has anyone else had experience with weird pains? The only time I've had tightness like this was when I injured my left gracilis. It was tight for years until I started stretching again and magically sprung back to being flexible. I did go to two different PTs and a physiotherapist but they couldn't tell me what was wrong. I know that getting your middle splits is supposed to be painful, but it's difficult to gage what's good and bad pain. What do you do to deal with new pains and tightness that come when pushing yourself? [link] [comments] | ||

| Calf so tight I can't stretch, it seems to strain. Posted: 03 Sep 2020 11:19 AM PDT Hey All, Long time reader. I'm in a pickle. My leg has always been really tight. I don't know how to fix it but I want to set my self a one year target to get the flexibility back into it. Every time i get to a plan, i pull my tendon. My calf is misshapen but its so tight. Does anyone have similar issues? or know a way i can resolve this? Any help or guidance will be really appreciated, I'm quite desperate. All the best :) [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 03 Sep 2020 07:47 AM PDT Hello, I have only recently discovered the 12 minute foundation training video from Dr. Eric Goodman. I done the video in it's entirety, although it was very challenging. I know a year ago it was talked about in this sub as working miracles for some folks, and I am wanting to use it to help from having a desk job. My question is: How often should this routine be practiced? I know some have done it daily, but for someone like myself who lacks conditioning, what would folks recommend? I was pretty sore after the workout and the following day I still had some minor soreness in some areas and moderate soreness in others. Just looking for advice from other more experienced users. Thank you for your help and thoughts. [link] [comments] | ||
| Unclear point of inflexibility in legs (another "please help me diagnose my problem" post) Posted: 03 Sep 2020 02:25 PM PDT I'm trying to work on my forward fold in pike and pancake (if it helps at all - I practice aerials, and I think one of my big limitations there is not being able to compress my body super tight). A lot of information on working on these stresses hamstring flexibility, but Iiiiiii don't think hamstrings are really my problem? I can hold out my leg flexed and bend it towards my head (when laying down) or bend towards it (when seated in 90 degrees) and the limiting factor isn't in the upper leg, but either behind my knee (which I THINK is sciatic nerve tension) OR tightness in my calves, and I'm not really sure which/either/if in fact it IS hamstrings and I just don't understand muscles. I know nerve flossing is generally recommended for sciatic nerve stuff but other than that I keep hitting a wall in terms of figuring out what the issue is or how to fix it. [link] [comments] | ||

| How much time do you need between flexibility training and regular exercise Posted: 03 Sep 2020 03:34 PM PDT My main exercise is skating and I want to improve my flexibility mainly with a goal of improving my skating. I mainly skate in the evenings/at night. I do strength and flexibility in the mornings. As I push further with my flexibility, I'm starting to wonder if I'm often less capable of certain skating moves on the evenings after working on flexibility. I know that deep stretching isn't recommended before exercise but I assumed that as I stretch at least 6 hours before skating, that would be ok. [link] [comments] | ||
