    My result of Thomas test, good or bad?

    My result of Thomas test, good or bad?

    Hi,

    I just started to stretch my iliopsoas which I hope reduces my low back pain.

    Today I did the Thomas Test to see if my iliopsoas is really tight.

    Here is the result:

    Left is the left leg en right the right leg.

    I got most troubles with my left leg/hip. As you can see, with the knee bend it's way more up then the right leg. But when I stretch my leg the leg goes down a bit but it doesn't touch the surface.

    Is my iliopsoas tight?

    Stretching routine for full standing leg pike flexibility

    Posted: 10 Jul 2021 04:15 AM PDT

    What's the best routine for the chest reaching the knees in standing pike? Is antranik's toe touching routine good? P.S: I'm already able to touch the ground with my legs straight but not my palms completely touching the ground

    Having trouble getting back leg down on splits?

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 11:59 AM PDT

    I am currently learning the front split, but I am having serious trouble getting my back leg on the floor. Somehow it completely blocks off, and there's just absolutely no way I'll get it onto the ground unless I want to injure myself.

    Is there any method to stretch the said muscles/tendons specifically? My hamstrings are super flexible, so they are absolutely no problem.

    Thanks for the replies!

    Wall slides popping sound

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 01:21 PM PDT

    Hey guys, I often hear a popping sound in my shoulder when I do wall slides. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced the same, and if so, how did you resolve it?

    Any tricks for middle splits?

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 07:03 PM PDT

    So I've been stretching regularly for about six months. I've gone from not being able to reach past my shins to being able to touch the floor while standing. I've gone from not being able to do anything close to a bridge to being able to do an ugly bridge. I am clearly getting more flexible, but I'm not seeing progress on middle splits. I do a split stretch upside down against a wall, and of course, pathetic attempts to do a split. Does anybody have any other suggestions?

    Muscle strain in my lower back

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 05:18 PM PDT

    Hi yall. Don't know if this is the right place to post but I wanted some feedback and guidance. Yesterday I was at the gym and when I got home I started to feel some pain in my lower back. Realized right away I should have stretched better.

    Pain started as nothing serious and I only noticed it when I stood up after sitting for a while. It got a bit worse as the day went on so I applied some ice and did a few stretches I found online which helped to relieve pain. Went to sleep with a pillow under my knees and hoped for the best tomorrow morning.

    Nonetheless, pain was worse than yesterday. The act of getting up off the bed was painful. Skipped the gym today and decided to walk instead which felt nice. Been icing it and doing light stretches all day. Since this morning pain has been light and manageable. I decided to lay down for a bit to rest with a pillow under my knees and when I got up the pain was insane.

    Essentially my pain is the worst when I get up after sitting (and especially laying) down for a period of time.

    I'm here to ask. How can I speed up recovery and is there anything I can do to help prevent this in the future?

    Is it detrimental to stretch on the day after a workout?

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 04:23 PM PDT

    I have not been able to find a clear answer after scouring reddit and the internet- Is it bad to stretch the same muscles group you worked the day previous? Some sources said it should be avoided because it continues to tear muscles and prevents healing, possibly shortening the tight muscles (i have extremely short/weak hamstrings so this is important that i dont make them tighter, i have been following this advice and only doing strengthening exercises, stretching after the workout, and foam rolling the next day(s)). Other sources say stretch as much as possible except right before a workout. Any of you on here have some clarification? Thanks.
