i've said it a thousand times, but i'll say it again: nothing makes my day like Grace's content does. There's something about her vibe that gives me the wholesome, happy serotonin feels that I need in this depressing quarantine season
My biggest tip for the splits is to HOLD your stretches for a good amount of time so your muscles can truly relax into it - I am talking at least two-three minutes per stretch - and my next tip is to not give up, I stretched every day for around a year to finally get there but now I can sit in my splits for hours and not feel anything because my body is so comfortable with the position. So like with anything, consistency is key!
Your hamstrings are inflexible, that's where you're struggling with stretches the most. Your hips are generally fine. In your lunges, make sure to straighten your back knee. I dance, and increasing my hamstring flexibility helped the most with splits. I recommend doing some yoga for it, the downward dogs are a lifesaver!
Is it actually doable if learn to do them as an adult? I had this belief that if you didn’t learn the split when you’re younger or have done gymnastics you could never do them and I don’t know where that belief originated from lol 😂
@@bluerayblair522 totally is! after practicing yoga i was finally able to do the splits for the first time in my life at 32! anything is possible at any age.
@@bluerayblair522 You definitely can! I started dancing when I was 16, and I got my right side splits around 18. I stopped dancing for a bit, lost my splits, and regained them around age 20. I dance with adults and a lot of them gained flexibility later in life. It's a lot easier when you're younger, but with persistence, it's totally doable at an older age.
tips for splits from a competitive dancer of 11 years and counting; - make sure your body is warm before you start to stretch, eg go for your walk first. this will help your blood to pump around your body and warm up and prevent any injuries from happening. - anna mcnulty get the splits fast is a god save and i teach my students this routine in their flexibility class. - when you stretch ensure you are challenging yourself, however not injuring your body. eg, pushing your lunge so you can feel the stretch working. - really focus on the hamstrings and hip flexors! when i get new students this is normally what needs to become more flexible when attempting to get here splits. - make sure your hips are square, this is probably one of the main reasons why people cannot get the splits. they are using using the wrong muscles and making the wrong shape. to achieve this when in your splits put your opposite hand on your leg and the your other hand on your opposite leg. so you are somewhat twisted, this will help you square your hips. YOU GOT THIS GRACE! PERSISTENCE AND ROUTINE IS VERY IMPORTANT, I BELIEVE IN YOU!!
“...I want to learn to do the splits...” This made me do a spit take. I have a long running joke with one of my sisters. The jist of it is “I COULD do the splits right now if I weren’t wearing these jeans...” Over the years it has morphed into seeing acrobats, dancers, contortionists and saying to one another, “I could do that..” I guess what I’m saying is that there is no need to learn how to actually DO the splits when you could just SAY you can. Lol...
I am in my final year of medicine currently and studying like crazy. I stay on campus working till late and when I get home it is my chill time and everyday when I get home I just watch Grackle and Extra Grack videos...not matter how old they are because they are so pure and wholesome and JUST THE BEST. I am constantly running to my sisters room to show her hilarious bits so she knows when I get home in the evening, its Grackle time! Love you!
The feeling I get watching your vlogs is the feeling I imagine you get when watching an episode of friends. No matter what they always brighten my day!
I literally came here to comment how good your hair looks when you started cooking, and you asked "how can you tell me my hair looks good like that?!" ._. it does. It just does. ._.
I always wanted to do ballet as a little kid I even had the costume for it and shoes but can never get into a club cuz I wouldn’t be able to find one :/
Im not gonna lie, I used to always watch your videos and then for whatever reason I stopped. But now I’m here again and I’ve binge watched the months I missed. Your videos make me so happy, so I thought I’d just thank you for being you and cheering me up!! Never stop doing what you want to do and what you love!!
and tbh, I love these casual vlogs so much! you could make a whole video just talking about random thoughts (like the dating Q's stuff) or cleaning your bathroom and i'd be here tuning in
I've been feeling down for awhile now and your videos are always a ray of sun in my day, thank you for that beautiful and wholesome energy. your vlogs are my favorite thing to watch on youtube, really glad you exist!!!
@@georgianac1147 (Honestly this is going to sound sponsored or like i'm promoting myself but swear to God is not 😂😂😂😂) well if you looking to buy there's an insta store called @morishgems that is sooo good, and recipes if you want to I have loads in my insta @healthytoothbakes
@@georgianac1147 I haven't tried it, because I'm gluten intolerant, but I use erythritol and I think you could make your favorite recipe with erythritol in place of sugar. I have cooked with it, and it works well, and it's comparatively benign for a non sugar sweetener.
Ahhh Grace I've been LOVING your videos lately. I stopped watching youtube for months now but you made me come back! Your energy and personality, just everything about you and the content you're putting out is so authentic and ah I just really admire you as a person - your videos make me so happy :) I've been binging your videos for the last week and it already feels like I know you so well!! THANK YOU for being you and putting out these videos !!!
HI Grace! hope you have had a great day! i just wanted to say how much i appreciate your honesty and realness in all of your vids. we love your content! keep doing what you do :) mabel
I always watch you after work to relax and I’m currently rewatching all your videos to make me feel a lil better because I’m sick in bed!! Thank you for being you and I haven’t found a creator like you!! ❤️
I was literally PRAYING you'd upload, I thought you wouldn't be posting today so went to watch an old video but now I have a new one to watch and I'm so happy, thank you ❤️❤️❤️
I'm sorry you are having a miserable time I struggled with university so much the first time I had a couple of years working before going again. Could you arrange a zoom quiz with your course mates? I know it's not the same but just to get different people to talk to.
when I struggle to eat (just got diagnosed w an ED) I watch your videos and they help me eat my food and distract me! I love when you bake and eat on camera it makes me feel so COMFORTABLE WITH FOOD! Thank u! Your basically keeping me going to get to a healthy weight! Sending hugs :) x
for getting your splits I recommend the 14 day splits challenge video by the channel Boho Beautiful ! breath-work in combination with the right stretches (and repetition - stretch everyday!) is a really important part in getting your splits and the boho beautiful channel is great at this ! I’m a dancer and already had my left and right splits but was forever struggling with getting my middle one, and that video helped me so so much! also tip - when you’re in a lunge keep your knee right over your ankle for proper form, and I recommend being careful about not putting too much pressure on your knees in stretches like that because it could cause dislocations and in being a bit thinner you’re more prone to dislocations. best of luck !
your content always brightens up my day, I love how you can get me from sad to happy just by watching one of your videos. Your personality is truly healing.
I watch her videos so often when I eat my breakfast. It just feels so cozy and heartwarming and is such a great start into my day. Does anyone have that same feeling?
I can’t stop thinking about school food now. My primary school used to sell chocolate milk and slices of bread for 10p at break time and then my secondary school had loads of places, they had a panini bit, a tortilla wrap station, a pasta king, and then like a proper hot meals place.
Oh my gosh I’m so obsessed with jolly, Korean Englishman and gabbie at the moment too! So good as a well as being obsessed with watching your videos 😍👍
I started university last week and I’ve been absolutely binge watching all your videos! In this crazy version of socially distanced university, your positive vibes have been an amazing way to keep up my mood while getting ready each morning! Thank you for the joy you’re spreading grackle
i personally like this channel more than your main. controversial! but i just really LOVE your vlogs and what you eat in a day. Also, i majored in Korean in uni and I watch JOLLY and Korean Englishman. i also make the best korean fried chicken
Hi Grack! I don’t normally comment on TH-cam vids but I have just started my first year of uni and have been finding it really hard to make new friends . Thank you so much for all of your wonderful videos- they help me to stop feeling so lonely- it’s like I have my bestie with me!!! You are the best xxxx
Don't give up with splits! It's takes a while to finally see improvement but it will happen. I think the most important thing is to improve hamstring flexibility and always stretch for at least 15 minutes because you don't want to pull your hamstring! Hope this helps if you see this comment. 😁 Absolutely love your videos, thank you for the effort you always put into them, much appreciated ❤
Grace I can't thank you enough for filming these vlogs! recently found myself in such a rut and rewatched every video you've uploaded on this channel over 5 days and it just brought me so much comfort and happiness! wish we could meet in real life and be friends 💚
We literally just love all that you are Grace. Of course we’ll take the time to comment our appreciation for your content, vibe, unique style and all ‘round positive outlook on life. It’s extremely refreshing 💜💜💜
I know the feeling of ppl hating on your skincare routine, I wash my face with a bar of soap and a flannel and works for me but my friends tell me I should be using all these serums and lotions etc - you do you boo x
Beth Maunders your genetics are BLESSED. My best friend has never washed her face with anything but water - she has skin like a baby and never had a pimple in her life??
I grew up in the UK and currently live overseas. You really remind me of my friends and I love watching your videos as they help me when I’m feeling homesick. I wish for you all the happiness and success possible.
Grace you really have been bringing some light to my day recently! whether im stuck filing at work or sitting down to some late dinner for 1, you make me feel a little less alone and like I have a friend to get through lockdown restrictions again, so thank you for these
As someone who used to dance comparatively, here are my tips: 1) hold each stretch for at least 30 seconds 2) make sure your body is warmed up since stretching cold can lead to pulled muscles (if your still doing the couch to 5k the best time to stretch would probably be after a run) 3) make sure your hips are in line with one another, basically if you push one hip farther forward or backwards it lets you “cheat” out of some stretches
While watching the intro to this video when you're lying in your bed, I'm lying in the same position and it just feels like a sleepover hahahaha peak cosy vibes thanks again for the wonderful content grace
To answer your question 'how is life': life is good, but also hard! I just arrived in England to study here (I'm Dutch), and like you, Grace, I've always struggled with home sickness. So I'm feeling quite overwhelmed at the moment! I don't have any family or friends here, so it's definitely weird to be all by myself all of a sudden. Feeling rather anxious if I'll be able to do this for three years, but I'm gonna try..
i can do the splits but learning how to do them is a slow process. remember to not push yourself too much when you're doing stretches that you feel hurt a lot as you can end up injuring yourself. just remember to be consistent with it. do a ten-minute stretch every day, and then dedicate a day, maybe a Saturday or Sunday when you do a longer one for like 30 minutes.
Cetaphil just changed the life of my elbows two weeks ago! :D Love it! Thanks for your wholesome content Grace, always a pleasure to watch something positive and lighthearted.
OMG Grace I went to Wing Wing Korean Fried Chicken 2 weeks ago it was so good! I also stayed at Yotel Clerkenwell where you've stayed previously because you were so impressed and it was lovely if I do say so myself.
Korean englishmen and Gabbie!! I love them. You're the first person i "know" that knows about tem!!!!! They are wholsome and you give off a similar vibe, thats how i came to see your channel. (And the tons upon tons of cooking videos 😅)
Hey Grack! My bestie and I followed that video every day for the whole of lockdown - we found it worked better when we paused the vid and held the stretches for a little bit longer (psyche truth is quickkk at changing those stretches around) keep us updated and good luck on your journey to becoming a flexible yogi!
Can u do a little section on your journaling. As someone who has never even thought about doing it. Is it just what's on ur mind? Or like a diary? I'd just never know what to write however it looks like an amazing way to start ur day
Omg Grace I've had a goal to do the splits for literally years and I'll stretch everyday for a few months and then stop for whatever reason. I just think it's the greatest party trick, I too have visions of myself dazzling new acquaintances by effortlessly dropping to the floor, legs akimbo. May we both succeed on our quest!
The *screams* while stretching are such a mood! I did musical theatre for two years and was THE LAST person to get my splits! I can’t help it if some of my muscles are tight... still can’t touch my toes
omg when you started talking about the splits, I really really felt that. I've had that goal for almost 4 years now. This year I actually went quite far and was really close to actually doing them, but then I stopped practising for whatever reason and now I am like.... well...

Couldn't agree more - she literally BRIGHTENS my day. She is my role model.
Agree absolutely, I am really struggling with an episode of depression atm and she really inspires me to carry on.

I did ballet for 8 years and I've never been able to do the splits, so don't worry, there's someone worse at that Grace, and that's me 😅
SAME!! i’ve done ballet since i was three and still can’t do the splits 💀💀
I always wanted to do ballet as a little kid I even had the costume for it and shoes but can never get into a club cuz I wouldn’t be able to find one :/

i can do the splits but learning how to do them is a slow process. remember to not push yourself too much when you're doing stretches that you feel hurt a lot as you can end up injuring yourself. just remember to be consistent with it. do a ten-minute stretch every day, and then dedicate a day, maybe a Saturday or Sunday when you do a longer one for like 30 minutes.
You’ve got me in a right baking mood lately! Can’t get enough of it, making oatmeal and raisin cookies tonight
Cetaphil just changed the life of my elbows two weeks ago! :D Love it! Thanks for your wholesome content Grace, always a pleasure to watch something positive and lighthearted.
I swear. You are literal human goals!
OMG Grace I went to Wing Wing Korean Fried Chicken 2 weeks ago it was so good! I also stayed at Yotel Clerkenwell where you've stayed previously because you were so impressed and it was lovely if I do say so myself.
I absolutely love your vibe. These chill vlogs are indeed the best
Korean englishmen and Gabbie!! I love them. You're the first person i "know" that knows about tem!!!!! They are wholsome and you give off a similar vibe, thats how i came to see your channel. (And the tons upon tons of cooking videos 😅)
I love grackles videos. She makes me feel so positive and happy.
Hey Grack! My bestie and I followed that video every day for the whole of lockdown - we found it worked better when we paused the vid and held the stretches for a little bit longer (psyche truth is quickkk at changing those stretches around) keep us updated and good luck on your journey to becoming a flexible yogi!
if only every TH-camr was as calm and unproblematic as grace
Must be fab coming home to all your yummy baking!
Can u do a little section on your journaling. As someone who has never even thought about doing it. Is it just what's on ur mind? Or like a diary? I'd just never know what to write however it looks like an amazing way to start ur day
Anyone else really want grace to have her own cooking television show, because I defiantly do!! 🥰 xx
Omg Grace I've had a goal to do the splits for literally years and I'll stretch everyday for a few months and then stop for whatever reason. I just think it's the greatest party trick, I too have visions of myself dazzling new acquaintances by effortlessly dropping to the floor, legs akimbo. May we both succeed on our quest!
The *screams* while stretching are such a mood! I did musical theatre for two years and was THE LAST person to get my splits! I can’t help it if some of my muscles are tight... still can’t touch my toes
Morning kick bird and blend is amaaazing!! Also definitely try deckchair dreaming for a night time tea! It is so so good 🤩
The best part of my day is when i see the notification for Grackle or Extra Grack i get so happy i stop everything im doing:)
omg when you started talking about the splits, I really really felt that. I've had that goal for almost 4 years now. This year I actually went quite far and was really close to actually doing them, but then I stopped practising for whatever reason and now I am like.... well...
First time watching your videos on an actual tv 😂 and not on my phone. Your skin is looking amazing! And looks like it’s healing beautifully. 😘
