#calisthenics #stretching
I have been doing martial arts and yoga since I was young, but I could never do a front split. Now, at 60, I can do it! Three years ago, I changed my approach to nutrition, and a year ago I started doing exercises on the horizontal bar, parallel bars, and rings. Now, Paul, I use a lot of your advice.
Since watching your videos, your approach to flexibility has greatly helped me. I now do 1-2 sets per position for the three key positions, 4-5 times a week (hanging/lat stretch, hamstring lunge stretch and tailor pose/standing goodmorning). Once a week, I also incorporate more intense weighted stretches at the gym (jefferson curl, seated goodmorning with bent legs and seated goodmornings in straddle position sitting on a bench). I’ve always struggled with inflexibility and found it difficult to make progress, but now I’m finally seeing significant improvement.
I’ve gone from only being able to touch the ground with my fingertips in a forward fold to comfortably placing my palms on the floor. In a straddle position, I can finally sit on the ground without raising my hips, and when I raise my hips I’m able to really push to deepen the stretch without experiencing the sharp pain I used to get behind my knees.
(watched this video while doing my daily stretches)
Hey Martin, that’s great to hear! Consistency and hard work paying off.
Thank you for sharing your successes! It is a good motivation for others to follow Paul's lessons and do the exercises constantly! I am 60 years old and I have started doing the exercises I did when I was 18 and for the first time in my life I have started doing exercises on the rings!
Thank you!
awesome.... love all the content you are producing
as always...good tutorial, paul. 50 years ago (really!) i was a powerlifter who never did any stretching, so my mobility is very lacking. but, i'm working on it now. thanks, paul.
This move is next level! Respect! 🙌" 1:14
Excellent video. Exactly what I've been needing. Going to work on this right now. Thank you. Can't wait to get my press to handstand
Glad it helped!
Good job
One more video on one arm handstand plzz
Hey Paul, great vid, I’m just starting out my journey and decided this is a good starting point and habit to get into. I have a good range of motion through all of these movements already, apart from the seated straddle. I can barely lean forwards with my legs apart! Whats the best way to progress into this stretch? Thanks!
Great vid, thanks! How would you go about programming these in to your workouts (or day?)
Depends your current level and goals. I would normally do a short warm up of Hanging, Forward Fold, Lunge Stretch before every training session. 30-60 seconds in each position for 1-2 sets. Then stretch between Handstand Balance exercises. I'd also add visiting these positions throughout the day when working, playing etc. Hope that helps. For a personalised program visit my website :)
