Yooo! I’ve been sore after stretching & assumed it meant I overdid it and my muscles were getting tighter rather than more flexible. This is actually such a relief to hear 😅
I forget all of the many reasons why I sore this time!!!! Then, I get confused, then I hate myself, then I think I should quit!! I rather go too far to get it over with. Every day is a bother!!! Now here you come to kindly and simply explain, remind me of how my poor body works!! I calm down and give myself some credit. Because of your lessons, and your demeanor, I rather like myself again and understand and appreciate my routine and get back with it!!! It is the way you target common complaints and make me feel normal about them. I feel like I can adjust a little and succeed. Thankyou 🏋️♀️♥️
Thank you, Matt. My muscles atrophied following having hyperparathyroidism. I'm 75 and struggling to get the strength back into those muscles. Thanks for the excellent knowledge, explanations and techniques that you share which are helping me to improve my strength safely and effectively. Love your videos 🤗 Dorota
Thank you so much for this information. I have been trying to do all the additional stretching for different aches and pains I have started to have over the last 2 months. And I was just so so very sore from all the stretching and it was so frustrating! And now I see I was way over doing it. I started doing it almost every day or every 2nd day! I am going to back off and try going to only twice a week and then seeing if I can build-up to 3 times a week because the stretching soreness was really putting me far behind I'm feeling like I'm getting better
03:44 omg this is great info! explains so much. I was stretching my lower body at the pool yesterday. did a little bit much.. and today I got soreness in my lower body all over. my legs and even buttocks as if I was weight trained. it is that intense! There is soo much to learn...
watching this as I sip on my magnesium water to help curb soreness from this morning's swimming / aquatic exercises! Good to know soreness is not unusual, been having soreness for years after yoga. Makes sense now!
I have spasticity from MS and stretch 3x a day but it can worsen my symptoms. Thanks for the video. I likely am going too intense. Open to other suggestions? Thanks!
I love the lesson on eccentric training! I can testify to the use of calcium and magnesium supplements to support nerve and muscle function after injury, as well as daily support. Endeavoring to keep fit over 50. Thank you!
Love all your videos....so helpful! I really appreciate your affirming attitude too....no judgement, just helpful information delivered with kindness and good intent.
Going through soreness rn from practicing front splits. I started getting lower & going down multiple times. It feels like I had a intense workout ugh. I'm going to give it a day or two rest
I have a question about popping or clicking sounds. I'll give an example. My toes pop when I walk or flex them. When I stretch them it feels good and doesn't hurt, but I have noticed that they pop even more as a result of the stretching. However, I've experimented with very light stretching, almost to the point where it feels like I'm not doing anything, and I've noticed that when done a certain way, the clicking has a tendency to go away. I have many muscles that pop and click. The toes are just one example. What are your thoughts on this and getting rid of the clicking? Thanks
Two years late from your PoV, but just in time from mine. ^_^. I've been going to PT for my old-lady-hips, and recently joined your Healthy Hips course - & now it looks like I've been overdoing just a tad. ;) Gonna have to recalibrate, if I don't want to be in OWWW! land - slow & steady wins the race... Thanks, Matt!
Hi. In the side splits straddle position my left leg rotates slightly outwards as I get within an inch to the ground. This causes a shock up my leg and tingling. Do you know why this happens and if I can fix it? I had an xray done on my hips and they are normal. Because of the slight rotation I can't sit down in the splits. Thanks in advance.
I did intense upper body streching (mostly chest and triceps). I only did streching without doing weight or calisthenics training. The day after especially my triceps were very sore
Do you have any program for shoulders that keep rolling forward instead of backwards? It's not a hunchback problem, just the shoulders rolling forward. Couldn't find anything about it on your site, basically the rotator cuffs lead to the shoulders rolling forward which makes it look like I'm slightly bent forward. No pain or anything, just bad posture and it's exhausting to keep them rolled backwards. My chiropractic told me to train the rotator cuffs more during my gym workouts and do additional warm up exercises for them, but so far that didn't help.
@@Oakich already doing Face pulls with external rotation as it's one of the exercises my chiropractic and my Personal Trainer told me to do. Athlean X isn't exactly my favorite YT he's quite Fishy and has been exposed multiple times but I appreciate your comment!
6:45 actually science says isometrix flexing before static passive streching is the fastest way to increase flexibility so I dont know where he gets his informtion but its definitely wrong what he says. Seems like this guy makes basic mistakes in his teching and I start to wonder if he really has any grade of education of these things he is teaching.
Are you a physical therapist or have training in this area? Just saying, I think a little curiosity about this can go a long way! That said, you spurred me to do my own research to determine validity in your statement and I uncovered some super helpful information on functional eccentric/isometric stretching, which is different from what the traditional "science" says on stretching (i.e., PNF stretching). Howwever, as we all know, science by nature is open to revision and new knowledge when *done properly.* I am a yoga teacher and have become increasingly aware of the dangers of yoga when done improperly, as this practice has caused me much hip pain and instability. Here's one article I found particularly fascinating that I found was congruent with Matt's functional approach to stretching. Very grateful for your comment as well as this channel; much gratitude to you both for the learning opportunity. www.advancedhumanperformance.com/blog/stretching-flexibility-eccentric-isometrics
What did you learn from this video? Drop me a comment!👇
I couldn't find any link regarding magnesium pill as said in the post.
Yooo! I’ve been sore after stretching & assumed it meant I overdid it and my muscles were getting tighter rather than more flexible. This is actually such a relief to hear 😅

Magnesium help me huge with my leg injury too😍
Love all your videos....so helpful! I really appreciate your affirming attitude too....no judgement, just helpful information delivered with kindness and good intent.
Thank you! I learned why my muscles hurt the day after stretching and some tips to mitigate the pain.
Hi, I don’t see links regarding magnesium, nor did I see them on the website? Am I looking in the wrong place? Thanks for another great video!
Essential information 👌 thanks elhers danlos is confusing

Could be a hip impingement that rubs on the labrum.
How can I contribute but not ony phone?
Can I bring this up on my computer and contribute thru using it?
I did intense upper body streching (mostly chest and triceps). I only did streching without doing weight or calisthenics training. The day after especially my triceps were very sore
This was very informative I rally appreciate this I thought I tore my legs 🤣
Does this mean after stretching I can’t train the same muscle for 48-78 hours?
Do you have any program for shoulders that keep rolling forward instead of backwards?

Face pulls. Search for athlean x rounded shoulders.

I've learned that this type of contraction is spelled as ek-centric, but is pronounced ee-centric? That's new to me 🤷🏻
Its like u got a camera in my place ...u always come up with my deepest secretive question....so crazy
