| Stretches for the anterior deltoid? Posted: 06 Jan 2021 08:02 PM PST I've recently started a workout routine and my front delts feel super tight and encourage me to round my shoulders a bit. I've tried holding my hands as far up my back as possible and pushing my chest out, but I'm really struggling to "feel" a proper stretch. [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 06 Jan 2021 06:00 PM PST Hello, I've come to the realization from years of sitting at a desk job that I really need to start stretching more. It's not that I don't at all- but I would like to incorporate it more. I noticed when I do certain stretches like like seated hamstring stretches or during yoga, downward dog, my back is really rounded. I try to straighten it but it just hurts and I don't want an injury... Is this from right hamstrings? Tight hips? Both? Thank you ! [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 06 Jan 2021 09:40 AM PST I'm genetically very stiff and on top of that I've ruined my body by sitting for long hours. I workout regularly to stay in shape and I guess I can call myself pretty fit. However I want to get flexible. Right now I can barely touch my toes without bending my knees. As soon as I stretch to touch my toes there's excruciating pain in my thighs/hips and I can't hold it longer than 10 seconds. I've figured out some yoga routines on YouTube but I want to know how much time does it take to get flexible? Does it take weeks, months or decades? Touching my toes is my first priority and then I wanna move on to pancakes and splits. [link] [comments] | ||
| Is stretching throughout the day instead of a single session before bed a good approach? Posted: 06 Jan 2021 10:52 AM PST If I do 5-10 minutes of stretching every few hours throughout the day, would that be too much and maybe cause me to over stretch? Or is it better to just wait to the end of the day and do a 30-60min stretch routine instead? I usually have a hard time sitting through long stretch routines so I feel like shorter sessions but throughout the day would be better for me, but I just dont want to overdo it [link] [comments] | ||

| Ridiculously bad flexibility - looking for advice and inspiration Posted: 06 Jan 2021 02:01 PM PST So 35/M here and I have the worst flexibility I know of...which is a bit of a contradiction as I'm very active and my fitness is pretty high. I run average 3 times per week, cycle quite a lot and often hike and do some mountaineering most weekends. I also regularly go to the gym. I've neglected flexibility all my life and it shows. If stand straight and attempt to touch my toes with straight legs I reach my knees at best, maybe not even that far. Same if I sit on the floor with my legs out i'll reach my knees at best. EDIT: Actually I can't even sit on the floor with my legs out at 90 degrees back straight...just tried it and i'm way off. I can't kneel on the floor on my shins and 'sit' on my heals / calves as my ankles and quads are not flexible enough either. Hamstrings are terribly tight, hips are terribly tight, quads aint great either. Is it too late for me? Are there any progress pics / videos on here that could be shared where someone similar with near zero flexibility has made great gains? Is simply consistent stretching really the way to go here? Is touching my toes with straight legs comfortably a realistic goal within say under a year? Any absolute killer routines to follow? EDIT: I also sit at a desk for work which I reckon has not helped the situation. Thanks [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 06 Jan 2021 01:37 PM PST I have hamstrings that feel tight in tone yet the ROM isn't terrible compared to usual and have contracted/cramped up and fasculating quads that are clearly tight. I thought if quads are tight (say in an anterior pelvic tilt) that the hamstrings are long and weak? Glutes also feel tight and contracted so not sure whats going on... [link] [comments] | ||
| Should I workout with a stiff body Posted: 06 Jan 2021 09:42 AM PST I want to workout in the gym but I made a mistake by lifting heavy weights in my teens which led to me becoming inflexible. However I want to know if it's ok to workout(lift weights, cardio) and work on flexibility on the side because I really wanna become flexible [link] [comments] | ||
| Did I overstretch or is it part of stretching? Posted: 06 Jan 2021 07:04 AM PST Hello, recently I've been starting to do a morning stretching routine to get more flexible, while focussing on my hamstrings and hip flexors. I've always been really inflexible and have tried to do flexibility exercises before, but never continued with it. Now with being home all the time, I got really motivated to get more flexible and started 2 weeks ago with a morning routine 5 times a week. Now comes my problem, after a week of exercising I'm noticing a burning/pinching feeling on the outside of my left knee. I'm only feeling this when in doing hamstring flexibility exercises (like toe touching) and I am fine doing other things and sports like muay thai, karate or running outside. I don't know if this is part of the 'getting more flexible journey' or if I've overstretched something. I'm leaning towards the latter, but I'm not sure since I only feel it when stretching. Should I just let a specialist look at it, or just keep up with my stretching routine (since I'm starting to feel a noticeable difference in my flexibility)? Maybe someone with more experience than I knows what the best course of action is. Ty in advance! [link] [comments] | ||
| i need help on where to start for fast results. Posted: 06 Jan 2021 08:47 AM PST so im super inflexible and its always been a goal of mine to achieve flexibility. my goal is too touch my toes first then eventually be able to do splits and pikes etc. my main resourse was tom merricks videos. but hes got multiple ones for everything.i was wondering what the best way for me to get results fast would be. i am willing to dedicate like an hour a day everyday if needed.i work out full body every other day so i was wondering when i should stretch on those days.what would be the best way for me to start achieving full mobility?

| Posted: 06 Jan 2021 07:57 AM PST So I notice that lifting either my straight left or right leg, I have trouble reaching 90 degrees to the other straight leg. This is the case for both standing up, and lying on my back as well. Anyone have this also, or know what the problem is? Is it hamstring & glute tightness, is it hip flexor & quad strength? FYI I have a decent fwd fold and can touch face to knee, but I also know that back rounding/spinal flexion can compensate for tightness elsewhere along the chain. I also realize that the two positions I described require active flexibility and not passive. Is there any method to troubleshoot to pin point each possibility? [link] [comments] | ||
