Tom Merrick Thank you so much! This is a great video, I think there may have been a mistake at 8:36 where you say to raise your right hand but raise your left. It could probably be easy to fix by just sticking one of those grey stickies on that point of the video saying left hand or if you think it's small enough you could just leave it. Thank you for the stretching video!

Exercising can be hard sometimes but It always makes me feel better. Last year I had almost 450 lbs in body weight. One day I just started moving more, then slow running then I started doing weighted exercises and I was eating clean by following meal plan I got from site Next Level Diet. Today I have 250 lbs and I am happy like I never been in my life.

It's been just over two weeks and I've been doing this stretch every day! I did miss 2 or 3 sessions I believe but I have already had a lot of progression! the stretch 10:00 minutes in, the first time I tried this I could not get both of my elbows on the floor originally I could get my outer arms elbow on the floor but not the inner one example would be at 10:00 the left elbow is the inner elbow, but now I can get both of my elbows down no problem and I'm getting an even better stretch! secondly the stretch at 12:15 this one has to be my favourite because of how much I can feel the stretch, only within the last couple of days on the 3rd/4th breath I have been able to just grab my toes finish the stretch, as where the rest of the time I've been having to hold my ankles! Last but not least the stretch at 17:33... my god what is this? so I cannot spread my legs at all that wide so I decided to sit in the position where you stretch your groin, sitting down with the base of my feet touching, over the last week i've been able to lean a lot further forward replicating the stretch the best I can, there has been a lot of progress but much more to come! I look forward to these stretches every day, I always break a sweat and in the final squatting moment I find myself saying "Cheers Merrick, I'll catch you tomorrow!" ahaha! I've just finished todays stretch and decided to update my comment, time for my cold shower! I'll be back again in another few weeks with another update! thanks again.

Alright I'm back! at this point I haven't missed a single day of stretching, it has become a habit. It takes 26-30 days to create a new habit and I've done just that! So my flexibility has increased a lot and I do overall feel more... liquid-like I dnoo lol but I do feel a lot less stiff etc. Over this time the Pike has become my favourite stretch as I've seen the most progression in this as well as it being the most "painful" for me atleast and I feel great after it each time, last time I posted it was only on the 3rd/4th breath I was grabbing the tips of my toes during the pike, now I can lean in and grab my feet that my fingers go over my toes and touch the arches of my feet and I do this for each breath. I'm still having trouble with the Pancake, when i stretch out my legs I can't remember the name of the muscle but on the inside of my thigh, it is SO TIGHT! though I have been repeating the same method as I mentioned last time "so I cannot spread my legs at all that wide so I decided to sit in the position where you stretch your groin, sitting down with the base of my feet touching, over the last week i've been able to lean a lot further forward replicating the stretch the best I can, there has been a lot of progress but much more to come! " with this I have been able get deeper into this stretch as well as having my knees closer to the floor, I'm also looking into different stretches to try and help me complete the pancake. I recommend deffiently sticking to stretching, specially as it's ONLY 20 minutes a day!? such little time of your day to give you such positive effects. Thanks Merrick & best of luck to everyone stretching! I'd recommend mend treating the stretch similar to mediation (this is basically yoga) but focusing your mind on the present, on each stretch and breath, if your mind wonders off and starts thinking about "ooo what am i gonna do after this stretch" just bring your mind back, the simple act of being aware that your thoughts have drifted off is a type of meditation in itself, I even recommend mediating everyday and treating it like brushing your teeth, your brain is a muscle and should be respected and treated properly! take care everyone -Aidan x

The routine helps me to have a very flexible and relaxed body though out the day and even on the days I didn't do the routine my body feel more relaxed. Thank you so much Tom! Very big fan. Hope to venture to your other routines as well and I am recommending this to everyone I know.

After playing rugby for 16 years and one injury too many, I stopped playing and started running. That was a couple of years ago, I’ve run a few half marathons since, and running my first full one next year. As you can imagine, the rugby took its toll on my body and my flexibility is pretty much non-existent. After deciding to do something about it, I stumbled across your channel and I’m so glad I did. I love your videos, they’re really informative and you seem like a genuinely nice guy. Thanks for all the help, I’m going to try to build this into my daily routine and hopefully see some improvements. Keep up the great work!

Started using Tom’s flexibility routine at the start of January due to a bulging disc injury that I’ve suffered with for the best part of 2021 and although difficult and slightly painful at first after consistently doing at least his 15 minute routine daily I’m nearly back to full strength. I will add to that I was also cycling or walking for 45 minutes a day along side this to help rebuild. With the consistent stretching and movements it’s allowed the nerve to be released within my lower back as well as strengthen the muscles around it. I highly recommend if you have lower back issues. Also add some cobra’s into the session as they also play a massive part in the recovery. For the sake of 15-20 minutes a day I will continue to do this for the foreseeable future as the benefits out way the time taken 10x over! Your body will thank you when you’re older wish I had started soon Thank you Tom for the video

This is one of my favorite routines. I've been alternating between this one and your other 20 minute stretch routines every morning. The full body nature of these are great to wake up my body - you've really helped me with the back and shoulder pain I had from sitting too much at a computer for work. The follow-alongs are the best - I can never get myself to do workouts just on my own, but these give the extra little push I need. You have a very calming tone of voice and all your workouts are easy to follow. Thank you so much!!

A couple years ago when I first stumbled on this routine I had circulation issues in my legs and I couldnt even imagine being able to touch my toes. Not overweight, but I was so unhealthy. I had shoulder issues that would have me on a heating pad for days. Now I do this every morning and I can say it has changed my life for the better. I am able to workout every morning and running has become a huge part of my life. I would credit this for helping me quit smoking as well.

I followed along and found it very useful, thanks. Then afterwards I looked up what PNF and piriformis were, because you used these unfamiliar (to me) terms without really explaining them. My "pancake" was plenty of stretch just sitting up with the legs straight out at 90 degrees, ugh! All in good time.

Thank you for this! Have been doing this everyday for the last week or so, and will continue with that + some extra long stretches here and there to finally do something about my mobility. Glad it's a longer video and not a "5 minute quick fix" and the pacing is really nice. Though wouldn't actually mind a longer version so I might check out some of your recent videos and see if there's one I prefer to this.
