I would like to know.

I rarely stretch, and I work out. I'm considering doing some yoga so I can become more flexible and ****

I saw some cats today doing the michael phelps stretch today, and I tried doing it, but I could barely get my arms behind by back. I got long arms, and my biceps got that girth so maybe that's the issue? Idk. What can I do to improve my flexibility.

Are you guys able to do this sorcery?

I stretch before i work out (dynamic) and after (static). Been contenplating taking yoga classes but havent gotten around to it. I need to tho
 
I try too. Got hit by a mini van in 2012 and just went back to the bar. Instead of hospital so I got wicked back, neck, shoulder pain 24/7

Not nowhere near as much as I should :lol: :smh:

I'll stretch for about 5 minutes after I finish a run, but never before, ever. I have ran two marathons and both times right before I started I did a little bit, just cause I saw everyone else going in..

I can barely touch my knees never mind my toes. Always been that way and I think it's where a lot of my knee issues come from.

I've tried a few times but never seem to make much progress. Thinking of signing up for a local yoga class. I can't even get into the start positions though so it's tough.

Was expecting somethimg much more homo from OP especially when I saw pics :lol:

Why did I click you say?

i strech before i workout, not after.

i can stand on my feet and put the palms of my hands on the floor so im pretty limber.
 
I do stretches and just use the Nike+ Training app as a guide.

I like doing the p90x 3 yoga (mostly because it's only 30 minutes long).
 
in the morning

When After i pee

I close the lid on the toilet

Put one foot on said lid then reach with the opposite arm towards said leg

I also find something that I can use like a pull up bar and just hang from it relaxing my body

The weight of it stretches your lower. Ack and the feel of it is



:wow:












:pimp:
 
An absolute must. Before I go to bed, when I wake up in the morning, and before and after workouts.

I do foam rollers on sore muscles too, I think those are considered stretches?

I run and love leg day. Squat rack is my go-to.

Invest in the trigger point roller and you'll notice the difference over time.

I always find my hips and lumbar area tight
