Dynamic Stretching: involves using movement, most often sport specific movements to warm the body up and make it more elastic before an activity. Dynamic stretching is active stretching with movement. An example of dynamic stretching would be a sprinter performing high knee-ups with exaggerated arm movements while running to warm-up before a race. Besides opening up your range of motion from these movements you are also making a proprioceptive connection by patterning these movements. When you are moving, your muscles are always communicating with your central nervous system and sending messages to your brain. Dynamic warm-ups or stretches create better communication throughout your whole body. You’re actually warming up the wiring in your body. I think sport specific dynamic movement is a great idea before any activity. I don’t see any down side as long as you don’t force the range of motion or use too much momentum when stretching.
Absolutely brilliant stuff. I recently wrote an article on health-by-way-of-fitness for those 40+ where I posit that the most important element of fitness as we age is mobility. (This has been proven to me by way of witnessing up-close-and-personal my parents aging, as well as friends, neighbours and acquaintances.) While there's no question that resistance training and cardio are vital components of a solid fitness regimen, mobility is the make-it-or-break-it pillar...especially in our sitting culture. So well done, you, for this great assortment of mobility-improving moves.
Thanks! And you're so right. It is important to improve our mobility but that means more than stretching. It also means building stability and strength through a full range of motion so that we retain the mobility we worked so hard for!

came from dr berg stretching after workout video and I already do some of these dynamic stretchings without knowing it is so I'm glad I can learn more to enhance more stretch routine
Can/should I do abs and obliques type workouts to these dynamic stretches in this video, or would I have to do different stretches? Please and thank you 🤗💕
I been training competing and teaching for 20 years. This is some best content i especially love you professional and not almost naked. For some reason men take there shirts off to demonstrate a stretch lol. Thank you
This is awesome, thank you so much for sharing! As a coach for cheerleaders, these dynamic stretches work great for helping them to warm up the hip flexors and open up their hips! In a sport that is so old yet so little attention is brought to the athleticism of it, it'll be great to introduce these stretches to my athletes and see the results! I actually tried them out at a clinic I just worked and they loved them! Thanks again! ;D
Oh awesome! Yes it is a very demanding sport! One that should also include lots of glute activation to make sure they don't get injured as I'm sure a few suffer from hypermobility!
Thanks for sharing. I'm 60, studying Taekwondo once again, after a multi decade absence. I find that many stretching routines are variations of yours. Basically that we're working the same areas of the body, but getting there with varying approaches. Some very similar, some not so much. I believe that I should continue with what my stretching routine as I'm going to end up with a very similar end result. Am I misguided in my thought process? Again thanks.
Hi Sam. I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but if your doing dynamic stretches focused on restoring full range of motion to your joints, you're on the right track :-) Best of luck!
Thanks for getting back to me. Especially so quick. First off you're the only person (trainer) that I've contacted on youtube, so please take that as a compliment. There are so many varying trains of thought on all of the muscle groups and how to get them to be more limber. Some have put forth that it's all about stretching your muscles to get the Brain to accept more pain in the beginning. The rational is that in the end your Brain will have been retrained and the pain is no longer an issue. Seems odd to me. Then there's the million vidoes on how to be able to do the splits in a very short period of time. The only splits stretching routine I practice is Superfoot Bill Wallace's method. His Martial Arts kicks are legendary. He's as limber as anyone I've ever come across. Some trainers believe that one can become very limber at my age. So far it seems like a very slow process, even though I take 7 classes a week and I fully stretch at home prior to each class. That's probably way more stretching then most people do. But my progress seems slow, perhaps I'm inpatient. It could be because I've done lots of very long distances walks and hikes in my life, which I believe runs counter to being limber as I'm building muscle groups. I have extremely strong legs. When I was in my 20's I did a leg press of 550lbs. I was only 160lbs. The people around me were shocked. I was too. My abs are also very strong. Sorry my question was so vague. Some pan stretching routines at Martial Arts schools (Dojang in my case) so I wanted to get your opinion. Do you feel that perhaps I would get more from using your method? Or do I have a long road ahead of me due to my very strong muscle groups in my lower body? Time and effort are not the issue. I just want to make progress. You're kind to share your time with me.
So I think dynamic stretching is part of the puzzle for mobility. I think you need soft tissue work with foam rolling AND activation. Often we can't "stretch" further because there is an imbalance somewhere preventing further mobility. For instance, your hamstrings "feeling" tight could actually be your hips being tight and your core being weak. Muscles respond to instability. So if you feel your progress is slow, you may want to also address whether your core is as stable as it needs to be or if your core or glutes aren't firing currently. And then I don't personally believe in that much static stretching so I'm not sure if you are doing that. Also, when we workout and do strength training, if we don't strengthen through a full range, we only tighten everything back up. So if you are lifting weights at all, definitely consider including exercises that will keep the range of motion you are working so hard for with stretching. But honestly if you are spending that much time stretching, you may want to see what is causing everything to tighten back up instead of simply stretching over and over again. And I"m not sure what you mean by my method? Are you saying static vs. dynamic stretching? Sorry for the confusion!
Thanks! You're very kind with sharing your time and expertise. You made a good point that got me thinking. At certain times in my life I was very much into pull ups. My lats were quite noticeable. My forearms as well. When I first started having back pain I (no longer have back pain due to Taekwondo) I had an X-Ray and my Doctor told me that I had built up some muscle groups in my back and not others. So I believe you nailed it. So I guess it will take that much more work and time to balance my core. I don't do pull ups/push ups anymore so hopefully in time those muscle groups will start to align with the muscle groups that I'm working on in Taekwondo. At least I hope so. Take care
Hi Sam. I am 58, and like you, used to do Tae Kwon do when I was younger. I was never a flexible person, so that was my biggest challenge. Also like you, at 55 I got back into martial arts, Tai Chi. I was wondering if I would see any improvement, trying to get flexible at my age. But I am definitely making progress, but it has been slow. I attend classes 5 days a week. Some tips for you. Stretch out a bit in the mornings also. That is the tightest time of the day. Also, stretch at the end of your workouts, not just the beginning. And finally, do a little stretching before you go to bed. I have a thought process. I tell myself 5 minutes stretching is better than none. 10 minutes is better than 5, and so on. Of all these suggestions, stretching in the morning is the most important. Even if it is for just 5 minutes. Try it, you will see a difference.
Great stretches. I'm very inflexible but these exercises look like they would work great for me. I know to only go to my comfort level so some of these may take time to really get into a certain position.

I have got to say, you have by far one of the best static stretching videos here on youtube and I spent hours going through different videos. Its fun to try to remember the exercices as Im going through the video. I have to rewind it sometimes, but its ok. The music is great too! .
i'm a coach Karate Martial Art from indonesian, now i use dynamic stretches before my students workout. and these is my reference. good job and share again awesome stretches..!!
I would only pick a few based on your needs for your workout. I usually recommend about 5-10 reps total or 4-6 per side through up to 5. You may want to check out this series I would use prior to a workout - redefiningstrength.com/the-hip-mobility-rstoration-workout/
I have a question. I have been diagnosed with Petellofemoral Sydrome and I was wondering if any of these stretches would be harmful for my knees. Especially, those that require knee bending!
You should definitely see a physio and consider checking out my knee friendly exercises. You need to address what is causing improper tracking and foam rolling, stretching and proper glute and even quad activation may be key.

You really have a large variety of exercises in your videos that definitely give food for thought. I am sure that for those people interested, they will definitely large some new information.
Hi Barbara I don't do workouts based on age as I have 70 year olds doing things 20 year olds aren't. It's about meeting your needs and working around injuries. I do have videos for a variety of injuries include beginner cardio and low impact cardio moves.
Hi , can you teach static exercise like this one ▪ Adductors ▪ Medial Hamstrings ▪ Lateral Hamstrings ▪ Rectus Abdomnis Obliques ▪ Spinal Extensors Quadratus Lumborum ▪ Quadratus Femoris
I'm currently rehabilitating my back (thoracic spine pain). Do you have any specific stretches I should try out? I will of course, do the ones shown in this video. Thanks in advance.
Great video! Already planned to include some in my warm-up. :) Question about the side-to-side lunge, should the toes point straight forward or can the feet point outwards? Or put in other words, how does the foot position affect this exercise?
Awesome! Pointing the toes out puts the hip in external rotation. That can be a variation but I find since so many people already have tight external rotators, why do it then?
@@redefiningstrengthOC Thx for replying! For me it is actually easier with toes pointing outwards because it's easier for me to keep the knee aligned with the toes. When I point the toes straight ahead then my knee tends to shoot outwards past the pinky toe. Other guides for weighted side lunges too mention that the toes should point forward, however, not really explaining why. Guess I have to focus on better form then.
Then you may want to address if you are supinating at the foot to cause the knee to bow open what is going on or even address imbalances causing this over purely compensating. Both stretches CAN be beneficial but if you can't do something, you want to address why.
Great Cori! I used dynamic stretch for skating warm up for years with an off ice class. This is motivating me to get back to doing it. Love these stretches!
Aw yay! It's such a great way to get everything mobilized and ready to work BEFORE you do any training so that you don't waste any time and the correct muscles are ready to work efficiently!

Would dynamic stretches be kinda similar to doing yoga ?
Yoga is mostly static stretches.
Hi. I just wanted to ask, in dynamic stretches would you hold for a certain period of time??
No you want to move through the flow. You may pause but it shouldn't be more than that.

▪ Medial Hamstrings
▪ Lateral Hamstrings
▪ Rectus Abdomnis Obliques

I'm currently rehabilitating my back (thoracic spine pain). Do you have any specific stretches I should try out? I will of course, do the ones shown in this video. Thanks in advance.

Hey. I just tried most of those out and they were most helpful. My thoracic spine felt great and didn't bother me one bit. Cheers, Cori.
Sorry I missed this! That is awesome!
How about the upward dog to squat? is that a good stretch?
Doing an upward dog stretch then coming into a squat? Sure! That could be a great one too to open up the hips and chest and work on mobility! :-)
Great video! Already planned to include some in my warm-up. :) Question about the side-to-side lunge, should the toes point straight forward or can the feet point outwards? Or put in other words, how does the foot position affect this exercise?
Awesome! Pointing the toes out puts the hip in external rotation. That can be a variation but I find since so many people already have tight external rotators, why do it then?
@@redefiningstrengthOC Thx for replying! For me it is actually easier with toes pointing outwards because it's easier for me to keep the knee aligned with the toes. When I point the toes straight ahead then my knee tends to shoot outwards past the pinky toe. Other guides for weighted side lunges too mention that the toes should point forward, however, not really explaining why. Guess I have to focus on better form then.
Then you may want to address if you are supinating at the foot to cause the knee to bow open what is going on or even address imbalances causing this over purely compensating. Both stretches CAN be beneficial but if you can't do something, you want to address why.
Well done! I do prefer this kind of stretching warm up too! You have a nice channel, keep it up! :D
Thanks!

Hi there! Thank you! :-)
This is a great vid n it helped a lot... bonus like fr the puppy
These are really good. Well done on your compilation!
Thanks!
This is very nice, thank u😊
Great Cori! I used dynamic stretch for skating warm up for years with an off ice class. This is motivating me to get back to doing it. Love these stretches!
Aw yay! It's such a great way to get everything mobilized and ready to work BEFORE you do any training so that you don't waste any time and the correct muscles are ready to work efficiently!
Really like the kneeling thoracic stretch
Me too. Hips and thoracic spine for me are big ones. Also ankle mobility ones..LOVE!
what a banging soundtrack
Good movements but there needs to be a signal every time it changes to be able to easily do them and follow
more stretches to do before my morning jog and late evening workout . thanks
Glad they help!
I love your channel mam.
Thanks!
