I am a strong believer in stretching . Years ago I had a severe pinched sciatica nerve . Stretching 3 days a week for around 3 months cured my pain . That was when I was around 20 years old . I am 48 now & I still stretch to this day .
@@stevent4955what other benefits have you received from stretching. Do you feel overall much better less sluggish, and much more flexible. Does it help aid weightloss better along with weights and diet.
I agree. Flexibility is more valuable than most people know. The lives of so many people are centred around desk work these days and this can cause real problems with psoas muscles etc. Well done for taking this on Max!
Was a pleasure to work with you!! A true testament to what can be done no matter where you are at physically! Your body can always adapt!! I definitely vote for handstands next 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼😄
Hey tom, I've got a lot of time on my hands these days. What would happen if I stretch all day? Considering that I'm not pushing myself to the limit or to pain.
Bakhshi Zulfiqar Manzur hey! It’s really up to whatever you can fit in! Even 5 minutes a day can bring you results if you do it every day - some people adapt really well some take longer! It’s like anything really! Have a look at your day, even if it means getting up 30 mins earlier you can find the time somewhere! 😄 4 times per week would be great if you can, any is more than none 💪🏼💪🏼
M I great to hear!! Sciatica can be a real annoyance for so many people but if you really focus on everything max did too you’ll feel things starting to fall in to place week after week!! Keep us updated on your journey!!! 😄💪🏼💪🏼
10 years surfing never did stretching. I couldn't sleep anymore, couldn't complete 6 hours of sleep without waking up from the pain in my back. My muscles suffered from tendinitis, i was getting tired by simply walking. After a year doing regularly stretching i can see a huge change in my health/performance. At first i thought i had arthritis 😂 lolz
Sho aREz I was the same! Martial arts and lifting 6 days a week and thought that it was normal to have a bad shoulder and bad knee and back and be sore all the time 😂
My back was killing me all the time could not even sleep right , started stretching twice a day about a month ago ,Big difference so I will continue 👍👍
I had a L5 hernia sciatica very bad for about a year. I stretched, worked out lightly, even used an inversion table. To this day I have no more sciatica, better range and flexibility. It pays off for your overall health to stretch everyday.
Shayne Shrader so happy to hear! A lot of people think that they are stuck with pain but in a lot of cases it is just a matter of opening a few things up and activating a few other things 😄
Great video. The 10 seconds about nerve flossing id never heard explained before.... so thanks for that. And made the video well worth the watch. The rest of the video was enjoyable too.
Try reaching out to Goggins.. See if he will start a course. I know he only talks about the psoas stretch in his book, but I'm sure he does a lot more then that, plus it helps to see the instructor as opposed to reading about it.
Awesome video Max! I’m well inspired! You put the work in and you saw the results. I love feeling flexible but over recent years I’ve lost it, I’m definitely going to commit time daily to stretching and feeling good 🙂 👍 thanks for another great video
Hey Max, What a great video, that's so cool what you achieved in 30 days. Stretching is so important and it's a pity more people don't know about it's benefits. Cheers, Johnny!
Just found your channel, and forgive me if I missed this (I skimmed through the titles of your videos)-but consider learning Brazilian jiu jitsu. (Real, legit jiu jitsu, not the fake martial arts stuff that’s out there...). I’m a 30-something female who just started about 1.5 years ago. Lost almost 30 lbs in the first year. Hadn’t done anything quite that intense or athletic before (much less grappling or contact sport). Did my first competition about 13 months after starting. Changed my life. And it’s also purportedly the martial art that takes the longest to get a black belt compared to others, haha.
Can you elaborate? I used to do martial arts as a kid and thinking of starting again, what kind of fitness do they train at BJJ? Most people I've met are are dudebros, I dont know if I could slam another chick into the ground or want to be..
Great stuff, when you do your lunges and squats be sure to keep your knees in line with your big toe and don’t let your knee(s) go beyond your big toe, you want to be able to see your toes, and for the lunge your knees should be at a 90 degree angle, (or as close as possible.) or else you’re putting needless pressure on the joints. And not getting the stretch you could be.
Mark Mirabella actually past 90 degrees the load is more distributed through the hips than the knees, knees should track the toes yes but squats that are intentionally stopped at 90 put more stress on the lower back and knees compared to full squats opening the knee joint up fully - although for most regular people it can take a long time to acquire the flexibility needed so that’s what makes the deep squat ultimately dangerous for them
Mark Mirabella traditional martial arts and sport MMA, I am a Olympic weightlifting and powerlifting coach and CrossFit trainer and have studied all things to do with range of motion and therapy. My work for the past 4 years has been focused purely on specific mobility for individual requirements so I work with everyone from advanced yoga students to strongman competitors filling the gaps in their training as many people that specialise in one thing do so at a cost to their body 😊
Mark Mirabella yes it’s important to know where your knee is when doing lunges! What Max was actually working on building towards was a deep split squat, this is a fantastic progression for building a deeper squat as some people aren’t quite ready to just “sit in a squat” so doing one side at a time is way more achievable at the start! I also have loaded these up to 70kg for reps too! Great movement th-cam.com/video/Q0S_UdppWgU/w-d-xo.html
Such a great before n after demonstration!! I'm always super tight n stiff n pilates was the best program I've ever followed, need to do more yoga n pilates!! Thanks for the inspiration 🌞
I appreciate your efforts I can see you put a lot of love and attention effort into your channel. . keep up the good work I'm starting my journey today
Jesse L they’re called “silly walks” a standard wrestling warm up to help strengthen joints for bad landings or trips etc 😊 not something you would load up but very beneficial training for contact sports
İyce Kold yes! Anything with fast changes in direction always carries than injury risk!! Being prepared could see you getting only a minor sprain rather than a full blown injury 😊
Kiza D WhiteHorse only until he got himself out of the major pain he was in. Max had a different starting point and we needed something he could fit in to a busy schedule 😊
Andrew Jones at his worst point he had to stretch for that long in order to get his body functioning again, now he doesn’t need that same amount. Same as myself when I injured my back, I had to do 90 minutes in the morning before even being able to do basic strength exercises which basically looked like more stretching and had to do the same before going to bed also. Now I happily lift and train how I want and only need to maintain what I have which takes little effort. That’s the extreme, Max was not in that same state as him so 20 minutes in the morning and a smaller routine in the evening was absolutely fine and more achievable. With everyone I work with their biggest obstacle is thinking “when am I going to fit that in!?” Small bursts daily is best for the general population, but if you wanted a movement like the splits for example which is more advanced flexibility then more time would need to be spent!
@@TomMorrison That's not true. At his worst point he stretched even longer. Now he stretches for 2 hours daily. If you don't stretch for 2 hours this title is simply clickbaiting.
I really like your channel. I want to do something similar in connection with a judo channel I wanna start: more focused on the physicuture side of things though. I really like how you are improving yourself through these challenges, while inspiring others to make rapid, well informed changes as well. I will be recommending your channel to my friends and family :)
Love the idea of monthly challenges so looking forward to watching what kind of things you get up to. Found you through Tom who I did some training with in Belfast. Keep pushing those boundaries man!!!
Hey Max, your channel and challenges live style are awesome :) I have one general question which of the challenges habits your as stick with after 30 days? Meditations, salsa etc?
Good question. I’m going to make a video soon revisiting all 24 challenges and answering that exact question! The short answer from the top of my head: Body building, meditation and sleep
assaqwwq this is a great mini routine you can start with! Max used a few of my programs but the main thing is to start moving a little every day and finding out what your own limitations are! You can always get better body awareness through practice! 😄 tommorrison.uk/blog/2017-01-31/the-ultimate-daily-mobility-routine
Richard Luis Max used two of my main programs and I coached him through the movements, basically worked through all elements of hips, shoulders, ankles and spine 💪🏼
G DUB a 20 minute routine was used in the morning and 15 minutes in the evening every day for the 30 days 😊 again based on what someone with a busy lifestyle can fit in
Depends on what you do. If your a power lifter than you don't want to be super flexible as itll make the core and back unstable during heavy lifts. Im probably as stiff as this guy to.
@@tonyshoeball7759 How long have you been at that? I lifted for 13 years but stopped after my back got fucked. Turns out my hamstrings and hips were locked since I never stretched when lifting. Now I only do calisthenics, stretching and mtn biking. I miss being big :(
Hey man , love what you're doing here. Just finished reading Goggins book myself and are looking for a precise routine to follow. Got anyone to share? thx
Alexander Nilsson this is a nice quick one to follow! But if you wanted something more in depth best to get a program 💪🏼💪🏼 tommorrison.uk/blog/2017-01-31/the-ultimate-daily-mobility-routine
miko wong we used move activation work and opening up of the entire hip complex, it is actually a place were a lot of people go wrong, if you overstretch your hamstrings constantly you will cause weakness which can lead to pain, search for the deep lunge test, it is one of the best bang for your buck movements for increasing hamstring range!
Caleb Powell it’s a standard wrestling warm up that you progress over time for that very reason! Last thing you want is to experience that position at speed for the first time!
Caleb Powell don’t force it, just gently one leg at a time for a while progressively adding pressure, I spent up to a year+ doing most of the more extreme ones
Tom Morrison thanks, been 2 years since I’ve torn my ACL and healthier than I’ve been but my knee feels weird when working on agility stuff still, hopefully it will help out👍🏻
Caleb Powell I would focus more on balance and stability drills like this one too, the joint prehab only makes up a small part really th-cam.com/video/pTnXfSvMzq8/w-d-xo.html
Why is it that when I see people talk about stretching they start doing calisthenics? Is this a new trend. What about static stretches? I've never found anything more effective to increase my range of motion than static stretches and P.N.F. with a partner. I'm pretty happy with my flexibility overall, but some days my body needs more attention than others. Still, this video seems to be another example of people using "functional movement" instead of regularly working to increase range of motion. Active stretching doesn't relax my muscle. It's part of a warm up for many, but I want my muscle to be relaxed and then I do light sets of less reps and less weight. Slowly, I increase tension as I increase sets to make it more challenging. Then, at the end of the workout, I do static or P.N.F. stretching again. When I do this regularly, it makes movement so much easier.
Timothy De Vita static stretches can be beneficial for many people but if they are your only form then you can lack stability. If you move well during your training and use movements that require a full range of motion then static stretching is great after workouts! Main thing is that it works for you and you enjoy it! As ultimately we want things that we’ll be more likely to do more often 😄
Ryanem he did at one point but only as he was so incredibly broken, working with Max we wanted something that was easily done every day within the time constraints of a normal person with a busy schedule. In some cases over stretching can be counterproductive and dangerous as a loss of stability can occur 😄
I remember doing that as a kid and mucking about. It felt good. I reckon kids do this stuff naturally and we just loose it as we age. It looked crazy though didn’t it!??
TH's Lifestyle that’s actually a standard warm up from wrestling! You would not heavy load those movements but it is important to have strength there for when you would get taken out of alignment during sport or just general accidents like slipping on ice etc, very important😄
Shovel the full daily routines max used are my online training programs, here is a great mini routine though that you could get started with 😄 tommorrison.uk/blog/2017-01-31/the-ultimate-daily-mobility-routine
Deji D that is a regression variation that helps develop one side at a time, elevated heel on one side helps the other side to get deeper into the hip 😊
Sean Mulholland he did when he was at his worst, nice thing is though that when you get to a certain point you don’t need to stretch as often so you can focus more on things you enjoy! 😄
Hi! :) Just discovered your channel and I must say, really enjoy your videos. You could try out 30 days of intermittent fasting and see how it affects your body etc :)

I'm pretty happy with my flexibility overall, but some days my body needs more attention than others. Still, this video seems to be another example of people using "functional movement" instead of regularly working to increase range of motion. Active stretching doesn't relax my muscle. It's part of a warm up for many, but I want my muscle to be relaxed and then I do light sets of less reps and less weight. Slowly, I increase tension as I increase sets to make it more challenging. Then, at the end of the workout, I do static or P.N.F. stretching again. When I do this regularly, it makes movement so much easier.
Timothy De Vita static stretches can be beneficial for many people but if they are your only form then you can lack stability. If you move well during your training and use movements that require a full range of motion then static stretching is great after workouts! Main thing is that it works for you and you enjoy it! As ultimately we want things that we’ll be more likely to do more often 😄
Very inspiring 👍👍👍
Thank you! 👏🏻
Tom is basically jujumufu
Тит Манович now that’s a compliment!!! 😄 absolutely love juji and Tom! Definitely people I would love to meet one day 💪🏼💪🏼 Thankyou for commenting!

Great video..but put a battery in your clock
Defenitely starting this. I'm sooo stiff.
Awesome 💪🏻
Great video! Goggins stretches for 2 hours at night. Not sure how this is like his routine.
Ryanem he did at one point but only as he was so incredibly broken, working with Max we wanted something that was easily done every day within the time constraints of a normal person with a busy schedule. In some cases over stretching can be counterproductive and dangerous as a loss of stability can occur 😄
Ryanem clickbait
Ik this old but did you grow taller by doing this?
awesome work 💚💛🧡💜💙
Did you became taller after stretching?
Maybe you can try Mandarin ?
In 30 days ?? Lmaoo that's a good challenge 😆😆😅
Tom Morrison goes to my martial arts school
Nice work
Dude wtf is that ?? How come he is walking with his ankles turned ???
I remember doing that as a kid and mucking about. It felt good. I reckon kids do this stuff naturally and we just loose it as we age. It looked crazy though didn’t it!??
TH's Lifestyle that’s actually a standard warm up from wrestling! You would not heavy load those movements but it is important to have strength there for when you would get taken out of alignment during sport or just general accidents like slipping on ice etc, very important😄
Are the routines available on a playlist or a video?
Shovel the full daily routines max used are my online training programs, here is a great mini routine though that you could get started with 😄

Thanks @@TomMorrison
Shovel no problem! Let me know how you get on! 😄
This is a very informative and inspirational video! How long were the sessions you booked with the reflexologist?
Try to do some cards trick next
Aren't the squats supposed to be flat footed?
Deji D that is a regression variation that helps develop one side at a time, elevated heel on one side helps the other side to get deeper into the hip 😊
Doesn’t Dave stretch for
Like 3/4 hours a day .. it’s insane g
He said once he does 2 hours of yoga every night before bed
Sean Mulholland he did when he was at his worst, nice thing is though that when you get to a certain point you don’t need to stretch as often so you can focus more on things you enjoy! 😄
He used to when he was very tight. Now i think its not as long.
Hi! :) Just discovered your channel and I must say, really enjoy your videos. You could try out 30 days of intermittent fasting and see how it affects your body etc :)
Hey Silvia! Thank you! That's a cool idea. I'll add it to the list :)
Stretch work out stretch again eat /drink healthy and be consistent
Kevyn Tavares good mantra to live by!! 😄
several times in the video I was wondering if some popup or some other video was playing in the background
That's Nashville. My home city. Don't know of him though.
Check him out, he’s crazy
I heard somewhere it’s not how old you are, it’s how flexible you are.
You need some batteries for that clock 🕰
Does this increase height ?
Vaideswaran A improved posture will make you appear taller but unfortunately there is no way to increase someone’s height
Not in Toorak anymore... NSW and in the Middle East
