Here's the extended version, which will answer your question.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5SZdoqDoLR3abM

Yes, range of motion, or range of movement.

Did you have a question?

@@StretchCoach not really just happy i found a good tennis stretching routine thanks !

Who said this routine was for a warm-up? Nowhere on the video or this page does it say this is for a warm-up. In fact, in the description it says.... "be sure to warm-up first." This routine is for improving flexibility, not warming up. If you assumed it was for warming up, then that's your mistake. As for the calf stretch, there's absolutely nothing wrong with this stretch if you have healthy knees and calves. If, however, you have a knee or calf injury, then you should avoid this stretch, but the same can be said for every stretch. If you have a shoulder injury for example, you should avoid shoulder stretches. The instructions in the description clearly state... "if any of the exercises cause pain or severe discomfort, discontinue immediately." Which is a general rule for all stretches whether you have an injury or not.

Excellent, Brad. Thanks for making it clear that this is not a warmup. When I searched for a warmup routine, KZbin suggested it. And thanks for confirming that the calf stretch doesn’t work for anyone with knee issues. Of course, there are about a dozen other ways to stretch one’s calf that wouldn’t trigger knee pain nearly as quickly or as easily. But let’s stick with this stretch.

Neither, it's not for warming up or cooling down. It's a routine for improving flexibility. It works best as a stand-alone workout, although is could be used as a good recovery session.

Hi Brad, thank you so much for getting back to me! I'll keep the session handy for a recovery session after a swim 😊

Thanks, glad you liked it.

I'm not a gut health specialist, so I would be careful if you are doing this stretch.

@@StretchCoach I use many tablets but I don't feel better I hope this is good for me

Thanks Bernie, I really appreciate that and I'm glad the cycling routine is helpful. God bless,

Yes, through the top of the hips and into the abs and obliques (stomach and sides of stomach).

Thanks Serdem

Thanks, I'm glad they have been helpful.

Thanks Pau

Your age shouldn't make any difference.

This is best done after a warm up or as part of a cool down. If you're looking for information on warming up properly, take a look at.... stretchcoach.com/articles/warm-up/

Thanks, I'm glad it's helpful.

This routine is best done after your swim as part of your cool down. Or, as a stand-alone stretching session if you want to work on your flexibility (make sure you warm up first). Another good time to do it is in the evening before you go to bed.

Thanks, I appreciate that.
