    Still have a ways to go, but here’s my splits progress after 18 days x30 minutes of stretching! Before, my hamstrings were so tight I couldn’t even come close to touching my toes.

    Help! I got my splits a few weeks ago and now I'm super tight and can't do them anymore.

    Posted: 02 Jul 2021 03:33 AM PDT

    I typically stretch for side splits about 12 minutes per day. A few weeks ago I got my splits and was super happy, but the next day i couldn't do them anymore. I didn't think much of it, i usually have good days and bad days. Its been a while now and i still feel super tight. How should I approach this? Should I take a break, or do light stretching but not actually practice going into the splits?

    As a reference for where I'm at right now, i can still put my full hand on the ground with ease, but i used to be able to do a full pike stretch and that was easier than putting my hands ont he ground now. I Think it's mostly my hamstring that is stopping me.

    My routine:

    Pike stretch: 30 sec, stand, 30 sec Runners lunge: 30 sec Hamstring stretch (sitting): 30 sec Runners lunge: 30 sec Hamstring stretch (sitting): 30 sec Triangle stretch (idk, standing with legs in a triangle and leaning forward): 30 sec Quad stretch (kneeling): 30 sec Triangle stretch: 30 sec Quad stretch (kneeling): 30 sec Splits with pillow: 30 sec Splits: 30 sec

    The Key To Improving Hip Mobility Is The Pelvis.

    Posted: 02 Jul 2021 11:59 AM PDT

    Hey Everyone,

    I wanted to share some breakthroughs I have been having with my community when it comes to improving hip mobility. A few of you may have seen my stuff before whether it be a C.A.R.'s routine or our 9090 blog post. I wanted to share something that has helped our community more than anything else and even faster.

    The class is linked below. The idea is simple. Think of the femur/hip bones being at mercy to the pelvis. If the pelvis doesn't have degrees of freedom then good luck getting the hip to move well especially when we are talking advanced flexibility goals.

    This doesn't mean stretching, mobility and all the other great stuff in this sub doesn't have tremendous value. After doing this class try a few hip C.A.R.'s, get into your pancake and maybe even move your shoulder a little.

    Let me know how it goes. I would love your feedback and am always here to help in anyway I can. Thanks

    Unable to squat properly.

    Posted: 02 Jul 2021 02:14 AM PDT

    I've toe walked since I was a toddler, I believe as a result I have a shortened achilles. I can stand flat footed fine until I try bending my knee past my toe. This makes squatting impossible unless I lift my heels. Any advice on how I can gain more flexibility in my ankle so I can squat correctly?

    Issues with yoga instructor

    Posted: 02 Jul 2021 07:29 AM PDT

    Edit: Dont tell me just to find another teacher. I study with several, and attend two studios. I have six months membership remaining at this one, and additionally, I like the owner and want her business to do well. So I want to know if my concerns are justified (because I am far from an expert), rather than just a preference, and if so, then I will tell the owner and let her decide what to do with the information.

    So today in my "therapy" yoga class (idk that's just what they called it in our language. It wasn't yin though) the yoga instructor led a slow breathing exercise for approximately ten minutes then had us go into double pigeon immediately after with no warm up and cow face pose and next a pancake split - all in the beginning. I am not naturally very flexible and have particularly stiff hips. Despite having done a hip opening class a few hours prior, double pigeon was intense for me with no warm up. From my understanding, you are supposed to warm up before attempting it. Am I wrong? This was supposed to be a beginner class, but she even had us doing archer's pose later in the class. Of course no one could even come close.

    Additionally, other people kept severely rounding their backs while doing pancake or pike, which my other instructors told me not to do. She did not fix anyone's backs or posture even when they looked like a C, and actually tried to tell me to go lower even though I couldn't without rounding.

    I have been attending this studio for about a year and am friendly with the owner (and quite enjoy her classes). I've never had problems with other teachers there either. The previous two teachers who taught thia therapy class were good - this current one has only been there about one or two months.

    She barely made adjustments (even verbal) during the class and everything felt much too intense and sudden considering it was supposed to be a beginner level therapy class (I have practiced yoga for two years by the way). I felt like she was using the class time as her personal stretching time. She is also super flexible and seems like she can't understand or make adjustments for less flexible people. I have been unsatisfied with her other classes before as well, but this was the first time I felt like she was just wrong.

    I am no expert on yoga or stretching - so I want to ask you guys. Am I right in thinking she led the class in an incorrect/possibly dangerous way? Should I voice my concerns to the owner?

    What is the relative difficulty of some common flexibility skills?

    Posted: 01 Jul 2021 07:29 PM PDT

    I started stretching a little while ago with the goal of achieving certain flexibility skills, such as front splits and pancake. I know that asking "how long does it take" is a pointless question because it is dependent on so many different factors. Instead, I want to know the relative difficulty of these skills so I can have an idea of which skills I might see faster progress in, and which skills might take some more time. These are the skills I'm interested in:

    Front Split

    Side Split

    Pancake

    Bridge (with open shoulders)

    Backbend (from standing)

    Full Pike Compression

    Palms on the Floor

    Why is my left leg have lesser range of motion that way?

    Posted: 01 Jul 2021 06:55 AM PDT

    Shoulder flexibility is important to prevent pain, poor posture, and undo the effect of working at the computer. Take 10-mins today and try these deep shoulder stretches. I hope you like this practice!
