Daily Stretching Routine - Follow Along

Here's a quick daily stretching routine that will stretch (and warm up) your entire body!
You can finish it in 10 minutes or less, but I spend some time blabbing in the video so we clocked in around 15 minutes, haha.
1.) Bridge Hold/Wheel Pose
2.) OR Upward-Facing Dog
2.) Twist Hold
3.) Downward-Facing Dog
4.) Bar Hanging
I hold each stretch for 5 deep breaths.
As I mention in the video, I'm not a yoga instructor. I simply adopted some of these yoga stretches into my daily routine. I shared them here because I've had great results with them!
Here are some videos that give more detail:

Downward-Facing Dog: • How to do Downward Dog...

[@chubbymike3372]

Let's go, start working out! :) 3 things: 1.fix your posture first, there's nothing more important for aesthetics. I got muscle but look like nate diaz, gotta work on that. 2.If I had to chose one exercise, pull ups. So go buy a pull up bar and/or gymnastic rings as soon as possible.Also, look into Ido Portal and 'hanging'. 3. Do (Hill-) Sprints, if you can't bounce on your feet like a boxer yet, do two minutes of jumping jacks a day, that's it. You increase your testosterone, get conditioned, leg mass(especially with hill sprints).

[@chubbymike3372]

If you only do these three things, you can basically do any sport there is. And you'll be more Aesthetic, masculine(V-Shape, grip strenght, testosterone) , feel better jada jada. Don't hesitate to ask anything

I just did these stretches in my room at 1am after spending the whole day in bed from being depressed. This really helped relieve the soreness in my body, and despite being very weak your videos are the kind of gentle encouragement that doesn’t make me feel bad for being so, and to maybe try to keep going. Just wanted to say thank you. :)

I had sciatica about a year and a half ago when I was only 19. I had to wait like 6 months to feel fully healed. I recently ran across a video of yours that described how the back bridge helps strengthen your back and started working towards that hold. I had to do the easier variations first but my back has never felt better and I even noticed my hips unlocking. I've never experienced anything like it so I just wanted to say thank you and God bless!

[@zeekeno823]

Funny enough, I had it when I was 17, but never recovered my flexibility of fitness because I wasn't into fitness. I'm 24 now and am trying to learn what I wished I new earlier. So far, this guy has been an amazing help by making everything approachable.

[@ronnietucker3712]

This is helpful info. Had sciatica in 2017 and the pain comes when I gain weight.. or weather gets too cold. Gonna try these exercises now

[@tjchad1]

I've had sciatica since 1993... was bad when I first got it- the Navy had me taking 800mg ibuprofen like candy for about a year. Told me I would need surgery but no way was I letting a Navy doc experiment on my back. My mother-in-law gave me some foul smelling unguent but it smelled so bad I didn't use it until one day the pain was just unbearable so I slathered on the foul stuff... within a couple days the pain was gone... I don't know if it was just gone because of coincidence and it was ready to be gone or if that stuff helped or what but I felt so much better. It still flares up sometimes but I have learned, for me, it usually comes with weight gain- gain weight, strain back- here comes the sciatica. I have also found that when I keep my core stronger I experience it less because I am less likely to hurt my back.

You make me want to work out. My motivation for getting in shape has been reborn. With these videos I think I'll finally be able to get in shape. I've been trying since high school and I always end up getting lazy. However, I feel like this time it's a little different. This time around I'm working out using calisthenics. I've always relied on weights and equipment. I already feel my body's weak points and I can now hone in and turn these gennin muscles into the kage they were born to be. Thank you for your friendly delivery of these geodes full of beautiful fitness advice. Everytime I crack one open I end up sweating on the floor. Keep being awesome Hampton.

[@Drekromancer]

Hey Hybrid, I just wanted to let you know something. While I've typically succeeded with exercise regimens, I've always struggled with stretching, because I have sensory processing problems that make it very overwhelming and painful. However, you cultivate the soothing, yet encouraging vibe that I needed. Now, for the first time, I am able to tolerate stretching. Thank you, friend. ❤️

Yes, I love the bar hanging one the most. Not many people think of doing this when thinking about stretching. I only learned about this when I started practicing aerial circus. This stretch is sooo good for the body as everything is straightened, and tensions will be released. I feel much better every time I do this. My coach also recommended a knee hang (upside down) so you can stretch your neck as well (if can do safely tho :D ) . Thanks a lot for making these awesome, informative and super helpful videos!

Just a few days of the beginning exercises you suggested has made a huge difference. It’s been so easy to already see that I am getting significant benefit.

Hi Hampton Love your attitude Bridge- I recommend to activate the shoulders and the triceps more intensely to farther deepen the posture (so palms almost beneath the shoulders) Also it's advised that the elbows will point in a straight line that will form right angle with the top of the met (indicate a balanced activation of the Rotator cuffs and the latts that pull the head of the humerus to the shoulder socket) proper alignment as such will assist in staying in ingery free Keep up the good work and congrats on the new met
