Thank you for this video - very helpful and inspiring. I'm really getting into these stretches!
Thank you so muchh for making the video on front split! It's always inspiring to watch your videos, very helpful!
thanks for the tips will give them a try
GREAT INFO!!! . Thank you! ❤️😁👍 Mucho gracias!
That’s great work it motivates me back into stretching
Awesome tutorial.
I feel the cat is the perfect complement to the content of this channel. Climbing, flexibility and fitness, coupled with the chill atmosphere permeating the movies. The only thing missing is for you to include fishing and grooming tips, and you will become the incarnation of a cat's true essence.

Love your work man
Thank you.
It was very helpful Sir. Thank you
Loved this thank you! :)
much appreciated
Yes! ATG Nordic curls for strong heel hooks and tib raises for toe hooks. The crossover needs to happen.
Top class tutorial...!!!
Dude, you have such a strong physique. Im not too bad rn, but i am kinda soft, and deffo carrying a few morr kilos than i need to be. I've also begun doing strength and mobility workouts at home so that i dont have such a hard time when i begin climbing soon. Wish me luck🥳
merci
Salut superbe technique bravo île de la reunion
Thank you for this video! I am "front split improving", although slow.
Could you advise on how many time, at least should the exercises be done? For a biiiit faster result? Much appreciated =)!
This is very inspiring! By the way, your videos are always very good quality and the audio is perfect. Would you mind sharing the microphone you used?
Thank you. I use the Blue Snowball microphone.
Nice
To improve pike, you can hold your ankles with your hands and then squatting down then back up, never letting go of the ankles.
I’m following subscribers 💯🎉✅🥰
thank you! how many sets will you do of a stretch?
Bro just listed down the all exersise which i perform for ky front split as a yoga practicner
But the differance in that when he said 20 reps of bounce in pike position but i perfrom around 400- 500 bounce in pike the 500 bounce with straddle leg and then many other exersice which take around 1.5 hour and i perfrom these routine twice a day and almost achieve my split in 2 month 😅
Hello, congrats on the progress! your videos are awesome. I have a question: How many sets do you do from each exercise? Thanks for the awesome video. I will definitely try these exercises!
Following the full GB stretch series workout (about 15 exercises), I only do 1 set of each exercise. If you follow the exercises in this video you can do 2 sets of each and do the workout once a week, or 1 set of each and do the workout twice a week.
How long do you hold the split position? Do you do sets?
I have my tuxedo cat sitting on my tummy rn while I'm watching this video. Lol
Wait did you really just stretch only once a week? Looks awesome! I need to try this too
Yup! The dates listed were the only days I did the front splits workout. I also did the GB middle splits workout once a week so there is some carryover on muscles stretched (ex. hamstrings). The full workout is about 45 min long and pretty intensive so once a week definitely feels like enough.
Middle split is the only one
If i can do the front and side splits do i still need to do lets say frog or pidgen streches or other streches to keep my climbing lower body flexability?
Again, how often should these excercises be done? Four times a week? Each day?
I have a dream and searching for motivation..can I learn the split at 56? Ty for your video
Very right n nice vdo ☑️☑️♥️♥️ but upto age 60 only , after that flexion of feet happens in age process
I really need a respond from U I've watch too many front split vids and I've decided to choose this vid to fo every day slowly so basically can i just follow this program any tips from the masters himself You?♡
In two years you can do the splits cold. I need this for 180° side kick
❤️ ❤️
You only did that stretch or did you do other stretches and how many minutes each day
Years of stretching i progress a bit but still my front legs dont touch the floor i dont know why
nice cat😍😍😍😍😍
😮💪💪💪
I like how his arms are larger than his legs. Maybe that's why he can bend them like that ;)
Your cat is saying "I got this"
nice stretch! A fascial release is required to soften the hamstring!!

Wonderful video and technique. You are very beautiful too. 🍃
That "above knee" doesn't seem to be good for Knee... How about "hold like 90 degrees, Don't bend over your toe"?
The point of this exercise is exactly that: to strengthen the knee.
As long as the intensity is moderate, you won't hurt your knees but instead strengthen the ligaments, joints, tendons and whatnot in the knee.
Problems arise when you overdo it.
Please see the kneesovertoesguy for an indepth explanation.
