The key is to not go beyond your body's limits which is what a lot of people do specially bodybuilders you want to get up to the point that your body is about to fail that muscle or tendon or whatever it is about to fail you get close to that but you don't exceed it
@@MovementbyDavid yes and you have got the most motivational studio there !!! Your simplicity is your utmost charm 💗 aaaaand....thanks to you I can touch my toes now, something I never thought i could do in my thirties 🥺 thaaaank youuuuuuuuuu
@@MovementbyDavid It seems like squat & seiza positions are different from reverse nordic / couch stretch. (Citation: I can do rev. nordic but can't sit on my heels)
Really? I'm surprised an interesting, because I just wrote a comment saying that this sounds like it would be very bad for someone with arthritis or older knees. Maybe I'll give it a try
@@propsekgamer yes and still do them now though I have been slacking. Overall, i think its the simple science of dtrengthening tendons, muscles and bones can help alleviate pressure from the joint and lower arthritic pains. So I think overall weightlifting and physical activity is valuable
I need a compilation of these exercises and stretches for all the different body parts in one video that I can just watch every day because for some reason now that I’ve found you I don’t trust any other work out channel lol and too lazy to find them
@@girlwithafaceprobably I gotchu homie. I can only really stand to watch chill exercise videos like these. David and Hampton (HC) are the best, but I should probably actually practice what they teach me more often lol.
I have recently gone through some serious, yet mysterious, health conditions. I went from a relatively healthy 40 year old, to someone who would qualify for disability due to my body suddenly breaking down piece by piece (especially my legs feet and knees). Your videos are helping me try to win back my own body. Your amazing, and I truly do hope you know that your doing so much good for our world. At the very least, for my world. Thank you, so much. Sending all the peace and love out to you and your wife and baby ✌️ 💛✨️
Anyone else going through this please try out acupuncture. I swear it fixed all my back and leg pain issues within a few weeks doing two sessions per week. Make sure theyre certified
I’m here because all of a sudden, after zero history of joint issues, my 29 year old knees are acting up. I was taught to never put knees past the toes! Gonna try this now
I'm actually pretty young and my knees are already weak, I'm 20. And I thought I should just avoid activity with them... but im pretty sure that'll just lead to more knee problems down the line, so this is pretty awesome
Great videos! Thank you for making things easy to understand. I've been exercising for the past 27 years and grew up playing sports. Now that I'm older I find my flexibility lacking and your videos have been helping with key problem areas.
Six weeks ago, my mom tried to step into the house. Something in her knee popped. Her current Ortho ghosted her (he was a resident and left) and the one she finally got in to see was like "What do you expect me to do about it?" She has spent most of the last month in bed, unable to walk, and unable to get anyone to give her anything that even remotely touches the pain.
I love your videos. I have some minor problems with my legs and joints that started to affect my life (I started rock climbing unprofessionally). Recently I've started paying more attention to my warm-ups and stretching and around that time your videos started being suggested. Apartment friendly, easy to try and actually helpful.
This has genuinely helped me, I be suffered multiple knee injuries including tears and sprain of the plates and tendons, this has finally helped build back some of the stability I had, you are an absolute G
Im here because, while i have POTS, i have practically no pain because i have always kept up with stretches. At this point in my life, im making sure to focus on the high-risk parts of my body to make sure they dont give out on me. Ankles and knees primarily, alongside neck, wrists, shoulders, and lower back. If only there was a way to fix my finger pain .-.
Watching your videos and then trying some of the things you do. Holy cannoli you’re strong dude. I’ve seen you’re videos on how you train functional strength not looking swoll strength but still you’re insane my dude keep it up and thanks for teaching all of us! Stay flexy brotha!
I used to do all of these as a kid, with ease. Now in my teens, and I have serious knee issues. Sucks that playing outside, jumping, and climbing things isn't socially acceptable at my age. When I climb things, kids my age mock me.
I just decided to randomly try one of these for fun bc Ive tried before and knew I couldnt do it and then I did not only one rep but 3 sets of ten reps??? This is one of the best things that has happened to me recently (been going through some stuff) and it completely brought back my motivation to continue calisthenics!
My knees have gotten pretty bad with general living and a skateboarding incident, and it freaks me out like crazy since I am only 26 and don't want to need surgery. Going to try this!
I love your content. Especially enjoyable while studying for NASM because you occasionally drop names for body parts I'm still trying to memorize! Thank you!
Hi David! I really like your videos, and I know that these are shorts, but it would be good to have some guidance around who can do the exercises. For example, my knees used to hurt, it got better with exercise and I can do squats with 30kg without pain, I think this exercise might be suitable for me now. Maybe it would not have been in theboast
My last x-ray showed my kneecaps riding outside of the little Groove. Doc says I'm going to need knee replacements. Suggested building my quads to keep my kneecaps pulled into the groove where they're supposed to be. So far haven't found a single exercise that doesn't make my knees hurt. Going to try these now!
Hi David, I suffered a complete patellar tendon tear 5 weeks ago. Shortly after I discovered your content and you’ve inspired me, I am so looking forward to recovering from what has been the most severe injury of my life. I have never stretched regularly or reliably in my life, though have always been one of the most flexible men I’ve met. I’m afraid for how much of a loss I’ll suffer in my impacted knee, but I want to regain what I lose and also strength the other leg to be sure I don’t have to go through this again. Not really a question, but just wanted to see if you had any advice and to let you know your videos have been awesome and inspiring to watch!
thanks for the vids, been divesting from tik tok but youtube is worse in many ways 😂, like others have said it’s refreshing to feel connected to what i consume, i got to stretch today and utilized some of the ankle ones! my lower joints are weak and my knees especially hyperextend/dislocate so i’m eager to strengthen (SAFELY and with compassionate tenderness to my needs and abilities i promise and discuss w my doctor lol)
Thank you! When I’m doing a deep squat my heels can’t touch the ground; and as you said that is because of weak knees, I’ll def use this along with my other stretches and see how I’ll do!
i just had surgery on my knee three months ago cuz i tore my MPFL when my knee dislocated playing tennis. i won’t be able to play tennis again for another three months but the doctor said i’ll probably have to work on strengthening my legs and knees for the rest of my life if i wanna continue to be active and play tennis. i’m not sure if i could do something like that yet since my leg is still pretty weak and i don’t have full range of motion yet, but i’ll keep your videos in mind for exercises to do in the future when my knee feels better
As a 26 year old who has osteoarthritis in my left knee this scares the fk outta me but also is very intriguing 🤔 I'd like to strengthen my knee so it's not in so much pain 😅
I've always known I have good knees, but I was NOT expecting this to be as easy as it was lmao (and my quads are still sore from playing laser tag the other day lmao)
Stay flexyyyy!!! I love your vids dude ❤️ But I gots a problem? My knees do a crazy crunching sound, and my joints pop a lot, even though I’m pretty flexy and not over my body weight (whatevers ya call it)... and I can’t make it stop... Any tips?? 🙏
Do you have history of knee problems in your family? If it hurts then you might want to get a doctor involved. I'm actually waiting to get x-rays myself, since my mother had knee issues from youth.

It's crazy how I was always told that stressing your joints is bad and they'll hurt and now I'm learning that's not necessarily the case
i mean of course if you go do this as 700 pounds obese you might aswell donate your kneecaps
@@oreos2653 nah that's just super strong knees super fast lol
i mean both technically arent "wrong" per say.
😊 I was told similar
The key is to not go beyond your body's limits which is what a lot of people do specially bodybuilders you want to get up to the point that your body is about to fail that muscle or tendon or whatever it is about to fail you get close to that but you don't exceed it
Of course you shouldn’t try to twist your knee across the vertical axis, but i don’t know why it would cause pain otherwise
I did the “double hard” stretch and it instantly cured the knee pain I’ve been experiencing for weeks now. Thank you kind sir.
Same for me yay 😀

Hey there. Did these exercises help in your case? How long did you do them for?
Also did you hit the gym before you got that ?

I've noticed a genuine difference since starting these exercises in my day to day and its amazing
Was i the only one imagining him screaming "WRRYYYYYYYYY!" or am i just a jojo fna
I was looking for this comment.
Love that you mentioned the patella tendons!
I love your videos because I'm a flexible person and the stretches you show keep me from pain in the joints
Blessed you brother!
Your hair looks great
Thank you so much for your videos! Your tips have helped me eliminate a lot of joint and back pain, and I am always learning something new.
Thank you for this! 💌

Do you still recommend for people with patellar tendonitis? I've personally been having issues and I've already tried a lot of different exercises
Instant follow! This area has been a problem for me for a few years now

This format is just so much more engaging than a 10-20 video with someone doing a loooot of talking. And it feels less like physical therapy.
Dude your videos are awesome. Would love to see a longer form series on squatting with heels on the ground
Thank you

That holding for 30sec is like nerve cracking 😢😢
For me who has never been into physical activity and totally stiff body 🤔🤔🥺😭
Me: I should try that
Kneecaps: you KNOW we’re going to dislocate
I just bought flexy. Super excited.
🤩😍👏💪
Starting this in the morning
beezneez
Solid advice thanks for the videos
Flex Stayy !
I remember laying on my knees like that as a kid and asking if others could do it i felt so special lol
I love this man 😂💪🏿
I'm actually gonna try this
Just did these and wow it feels awesome, already feel my knees strengthening 🦿
As a 26 year old who has osteoarthritis in my left knee this scares the fk outta me but also is very intriguing 🤔 I'd like to strengthen my knee so it's not in so much pain 😅

You're amazingly cool!!
This might make my knees stronger but my back would have some strong misgivings about this
Right now I cannot even do the "easy" stretch because of a wrestling injury I got well over a month ago...
Im just coming off a knee and an ankle injury and though i can run and jump and everything im still stiff in that knee. We're getting there tho 🥲
Good one keep that stretching advice coming cheers Geoff
Stay flexyyyy!!!

But I gots a problem? My knees do a crazy crunching sound, and my joints pop a lot, even though I’m pretty flexy and not over my body weight (whatevers ya call it)... and I can’t make it stop... Any tips?? 🙏
Do you have history of knee problems in your family? If it hurts then you might want to get a doctor involved. I'm actually waiting to get x-rays myself, since my mother had knee issues from youth.
I sit on my knees all the time im playing games, eating or watching something
So it's now easy for me to do all of them
when i tell you my knee pain got relieved by so so much by just doing this one time.. holy shit
My knees pop like crazy but don't feel painful at all when doing this. Should I be worried?
that "double hard" stretch is literally how I lay down sometimes for comfort. People get freaked out by it. I guess I've got some flexy knees
Doing this after your usable thigh tutorial burns different
I’d like to see you playing with kids. Start them early. Pass on the torch. 💡I’m rehabilitating two broken bones in my ankle. You inspire hope in me.
It's been a year since my knee surgery. I am ready to do these and make sure I don't reinjure them
Like your way of talking n explaining 😗
I’m 15 and i play football but recently I haven’t been able to do difficult knee movements due to osgood schattler
I think i was born with it
Hard: pulls hamstring muscle, which hurts WAY less than calf charliehorse
Double Hard?: I feel light stretch
Gonna try this as an extra for the gym everyday
Very cool
No u
My range of motion is fine it’s the pain squatting and jumping that came back.
I have a fused ankle but this is good, will allow me to put weight through knees well them being over toes, might need my ankle brace on though
