    Welcome to Form Check Friday! Here is the link to all previous Form Check Fridays

    Please post a photo or video of the stretch you'd like to be critiqued. Do include any specific questions you have about your form.

    Your video or photo should be:

    • Oriented the correct way, we want to see the lines of your body
    • Be formatted such that there isn't unnecessary video of you preparing for the move (keep it short)
    • Have the important bits of the movement clearly visible (multiple angles is always useful)
    • Include the whole body

    Rules for critiquing form

    • Constructive criticism only
    • Feel free to point others to resources that address their form and/or questions if you aren't "qualified" to give them advice yourself

    If your form is awesome, consider posting it in the Show Off Sunday thread!

    What are the most impactful online courses, books, coaches etc. that have helped you in the past with flexibility/mobility?

    Posted: 05 Nov 2020 10:14 PM PST

    I have experimented over the years with adding bits and pieces of what I see in these threads into my workouts. For the most part it always feels good while I'm doing it, but I feel like I'm in a standstill.

    I'm hoping I can find some good recommendations that will help teach me the ideal way to blend typical workouts with flexibility stuff. I don't have any injury history that would contraindicate me to any programs (to my knowledge).

    I feel like I should be taking the stretching part of my routine more seriously, so I'm all ears to see what's out there.

    Is tendon "stiffness" a barrier to flexibility?

    Posted: 05 Nov 2020 07:12 PM PST

    I've been working out, but the more I've done the more I've found out that I have ligaments and tendons that aren't "stiff". This doesn't mean that I can't do normal stretches, but instead it refers to the strength of the soft tissue and how well it will bounce back (think plyometrics)

    ​

    That being said, how much does this inhibit flexibility, or does it actually at all? Is it possible to have very stiff tendons and also be very flexible and what would I have to watch out to make sure that I don't lean too far into stiffness to completely impede my flexibility goals?

    A set of effective shoulder stretching exercises. We will focus on our upper body to improve its flexibility. These exercises can be incorporated into a workout session as well as used as a stand alone stretching routine.

    I’m having trouble finding the right time to stretch......

    Posted: 05 Nov 2020 06:02 AM PST

    This sub seems to have a lot of very experienced ppl. So joined to ask all of u for some advice. I'm on my journey to achieving full body flexibility. Most importantly however, I want to achieve stretches such as: the pancake, middle and front splits, and backbends. All of these will help me with breakdancing hopefully. The problem comes when I try to find the right time to practice all these stretches. Can I practice them all in a day and in a single routine? Or do I split it in days? Ofc I want my whole body to be flexible, though these r the most important for me.....

    I have absolutely horrible flexibility and idek why

    I've tried looking through this sub for something similar to my condition but I can't seem to find anything.

    I used to have anterior pelvic tilt which I've now managed to fix from doing hamstring curls (I.e the angle of the tilt has drastically reduced). The problem I have now is that I can't do RDLs or Good mornings for the life of me without my back rounding like a dog taking a dump. The most i can do is a 30 degree angle with my back

    I've read that in some posts that in an anterior pelvic tilt the hamstrings are already stretched so there's no point in stretching it more. And others recommend actually stretching it.

    Can anyone link me to a routine, or give me any sort of input, on what I can do to increase my mobility?
