Perfect timing for this video, Ash. I'm applying this one along with the groin stretch video. Thanks a ton from the American Southwest Desert! I just started running this past Dec. I could barely walk down the block because of health conditions. I ran my first 15k distance two days ago :) This change probably saved my life. Thank you again for everything. You never know who you're going to impact :)

Oh wow, that’s amazing to read!!! Thank you so much for sharing! And a MASSIVE WELL DONE for running your first 15k!!! 🙌🏻👍🏻 you have a mental strength that can take you a long way, keep setting those goals and working towards them as that will keep you motivated! Greetings to the American Southwest from a village in the north of England 👋😊 I appreciate all your comments 🙏

This felt great Ash. At first I felt so wobbly and thought "this is a core exercise for me rather than a stretch", but then I found balancing easier and loved that it was all gentle on the hips. Will definitely check out your membership when it comes out.

8:33 funnily enough, i followed this video both last week and today. Both times ran the same distance with nearly-identical walking/running speed and ratio, but last week i my run “handt gone to plan” and today it did! Just goes to show how important realistic and CIRCUMSTANTIAL expectations are…
@talnev.78947 ай бұрын
For context. Last week i had been after a physically tiring day of work and i hadnt slept well, but still i had treated it like any other run, and expected high/improved results (similar to my previous few runs). Today i came with the knowledge that i had missed out on my last two runs because of some holidays, and so i was prepared to take it easy and therefore had pre-set an easier goal. Different expectations. Same results. Suffice it to say i came out of my run today a lot happier than i did last week…

Hey Ash! Warmed up with your recent 12 minute warm up video, went for a tempo work run today alternating between various intervals of running then walking for two minutes and repeated that for about 30 minutes, and wrapped it all up with this cool down stretch. Was definitely a gentler run day compared to nonstop running for 25+ minutes, and this post-run stretch was like having dessert after a cheat meal 😂
