5 STRETCHES YOU NEED TO BE DOING EVERYDAY!

[@downside1237]

You have such an engaging personality, and you really make your audience feel like you are actually talking to each one personally. It's so cool, you really have grace in what you do

Would you think that if you found out she is on GEAR

[@oldgrizz8720]

Really appreciated the stretching routine. I'm 65 and stilling doing my best to work out, but realized I don't do much stretching. I will begin to incorporate both of these workouts into my daily routine. Two random comments, love the shoes, and the image of you doing the side plank really demonstrated how the muscles work in this movement. Thank you.

[@camillehill8795]

I love the room or patio you are in with the big window (or open spaces) and the lovely yard with the green grass and trees and the tied back curtains. The white wicker furniture is very refreshing and adds to the calmness and grace of the environment. Lucky you! Love your friendly, laid back style of instructing. You seem very natural, yet focused.

[@nico74321]

I got a really bad shoulder injury from tennis but when I see your stretch with the pole thing wow I no longer feel pain in my shoulder, you are a life savior!

[@laurenboling5551]

I’m so impressed with your ability to explain and describe the movements! It takes so much practice to instruct as well as you are.

[@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell]

Thank you! I truly appreciate it!

Thanks for sharing these AWESOME stretches. Mobility is DEFINITELY important. I do these stretches at my gym. I will continue to do these stretches at my gym after watching this AWESOME video. Can you keep more videos like this coming? Love these videos Kristi.

[@nativist4ever352]

Great video! Loved the stretches you shared; your explanation, and your positive attitude! Have begun using this as part of my morning and evening routines! Already feel the benefits! Thank yu or sharing. Would love to see more of this type of fitness videos. Too few athletes focus on effective pre-workout and flexibility for injury prevention and recovery. This is one the best overall videos for the aforementioned I've ever seen. Short, concise, and enjoyable to watch. Great job!

Kristi, I am big into stretching and I really loved your video. I would be delighted if you could have yourself a "stretching corner" because I would definitely be interested to follow along. I am almost 64 but your video really inspired me, and I really believe stretching routines are understated. The abs routine you suggest is a perfect compliment too. : )

[@juless3568]

Excellent video Kristi, you have encouraged me to stay flexible as long as possible. Never let Delayed Onsent Of Muscular Soreness (DOMS) hinder your fitness goals and cross fit aspirations.

[@hamletshero]

Love the stretches! Would love to see more of what you do for recovery to keep you fresh for all your workouts!

[@turntablesrockmyworld9315]

Thanks for showing your exercises! I liked your clear, simple explanations. Just some thoughts for the 50 plus crowd here. First, if you cannot due the seated butterfly stretch due to being chubby, inflexible, or because of lower back pain, you can also do it lying flat on your back (it looks the same, except you are laying down, and you get into it first while lying on your back). The forearm stretch is effective, but for those with previous injuries or wrist weakness , you can damage the ulnar area (notch just under your pinkie) even not fully applying it, which is what happened when I tried it two years ago -still not healed. Rotation-of-wrist excerises can cause many problems for some people. Just some thoughts!

[@p-dub7422]

Excellent video and demonstration! You are holding those stretches for a long time. I have never thought of holding stretches that long but will incorporate it now. Thanks

Wonderful example of taking care of gift of good body from our parents. Lovely bright breezy home explains the personality !!!

Never too late to start. Go for it!

[@earlhickey1557]

I did not do any sports for 25 years and started with H.I.I.T, my plan was to sprint 30 seconds and rest 30 seconds but i ended up with jogging 20 seconds and rest 40 seconds. Anyway it feels great and it was the perfect start for me.

[@nir_maj9808]

Very scientific and helpful stretches. Tried all of them. Very helpful. Innovative. Thank you. Looking forward to more.

[@MohammadAshraf-sg2zk]

Thanks. The forearm stretch/ squat and prolonged lunge were especially helpful 👌

[@omanduhuislife3367]

Super generous huge thanks and will defo incorporate 👌👑🥰

[@jenniferrothrock271]

Thank you so much for these stretches!!! They are perfect for new Mom's! Holding a baby on your hip leads to a stiff hip flexor and forearm. And the shoulder stretch with the broom is the BEST stretch of all time.

[@erikuu96]

I do these stretches before doing my taxes, the pain and stress does not go away

That forearm stretch works great! I do a lot of computer work, so my forearms get tight and cause elbow pain, and that stretch gets good and deep.

[@alexedge6245]

Yes I’m curious on which stretching app you use! Love your videos! They inspire me to push myself harder in the gym, keep them coming!

[@kevinnobody3052]

I have been stretching for longer than you've been alive. I'm 62 now and I can say without any hesitation that stretching is probably the number 1 beneficial thing that a person can do for themselves. You're in incredible condition and it's obvious that you strength train a lot. Good job for using a stretching routine to all you do and thanks for sharing your stretching techniques with everyone. You don't have to worry about it yet but stretching is very important as you begin to age. I can tell you all about that! 🤣

[@johnjackson2029]

Excellent explanation and understanding of stretches and the muscle groups that are being aided during each stretch 👍

[@debbieclosen5873]

I am really enjoying your channel thank you for the time that you focus to this effort and for your extremely solid explanations!!

[@fabiolaescamilla7591]

I love this stretches. I’ve been doing CrossFit for about 3 months, I am learning on my own all the moves. So far I love it! I am the same height as you! So I am having an idea where should I be in 6 months. Thank you for the enthusiasm you put in doing this videos.

[@vafoundationinspections]

Love your outdoor space - can you send a picture of the structure or a video that shows it? I'd love to build something similar. Great stretches - for us over 50 guys we get so tight!!!! Thank you!

Thanks for the stretches, they are really good to have in any routine and also the ab extras, great stuff...love from the Caribbean

[@justine9980]

Great video! I have a lot of pain in my wrists and it hurts to do a push so maybe these stretches will help, and I also have very tight hip flexors so I will have to give some of these a try and thanks for the ab workout, always looking for new things to try!

[@thewalkindude7716]

i just finished 30 days of Nuclei Overload training. The shoulder stretch is amazing and has helped so much.

[@sniffingdogartofficial7257]

What body part did you focus on dude? I haven't done any NO in ages but yeah I should get back on it.

[@thewalkindude7716]

@@sniffingdogartofficial7257 I actually used the NO formula to calculate the number of sets and came up with a full body workout. So, I would start with a 2 mile run and then do a full body workout. I did this every day for 30 days straight. When I tell people this they're like "Oh man, that's stupid!" LoL. But, if you come up with a good plan, stick to the plan and really listen to your body, you should be fine. I started to feel fatigued around day 25 and then around day 28 my traps and pecks started to feel a little over trained, but I made it through the entire 30 days. When I was done, I took 8 days off. No cardio. No strength training. I just stretched every day. The 8 days off wasn't a set plan. I planned for 7-14 days off but I just listened to my body and when I felt ready I was back in the gym. For me, that was day 9. I thought I'd lose a lot during the 8 days off but I didn't and when I went back to the gym using my normal split, I was even stronger. I'm very happy with the results.

[@sniffingdogartofficial7257]

@@thewalkindude7716 Yo dude, no, no, I don't think that sounds stupid at all, or anything like that. As you say, if you feel overtrained you can pull back, and especially if you're used to training hard I don't think anyone's suddenly gonna' die from doing full body each day. I wrote up a similar plan that I was ready to test out, then yeah Corona happened ahahah. So yeah, still doing home workouts for now but yeah I'm glad to hear you had such good results man, always encouraging.
