Today we share with you 3 of our most important flexibility stretches/mobility exercises for movement.
No matter what age or fitness level, you can start using these to improve your functional movement skills.
These are stretches and movements we have taken from our training in parkour.
Most of you are familiar with parkour. However, if you are new to our channel, parkour is an advanced movement discipline.
The goal of parkour is to efficiently go from one place to another using just your body to over come any obstacles you encounter.
You train efficient body movements such as running, jumping, climbing, crawling, and vaulting.
Through this training we discovered that most of these functional movements mainly require flexibility/mobility in 3 key areas.
It's important to build flexibility and mobility through the whole body. However, if you are just starting or you only have time to focus on a few areas, these would be the 3 most important that we recommend.
I'd recommend training these exercises, twice a day, 5 days a week to get the best results.
Use these 3 stretches and you will notice a big increase in your flexibility/mobility for your movement skills & training.
Now if you are interested in learning more about parkour and developing some of the beginner moves...

TappBrothers Kong vaults over low obstacles ive found helps improve your tuck and from when doing them.

[@josephkusabs46]

My favorite stretch/mobility exercise would have to be quadrupedal movement. A few months back you helped me discover this technique and since I have been able to implement in many ways and I have seen much improvement in my strength, coordination and ability to move freely in general :).

[@simeonnewman7639]

Reciprocating movements due to the fact that it not only works critical areas of the body and conditions the muscles needed for rigorous movement, but it also allows for your neuropathways to rewire as you utilize differnt muscles and different areas of the brain for what seems to be the same movement.

[@claywars_205]

Simply leg raises, they increase hip/thigh flexibility without having to do static stretches and so you can do things like kick higher, it helps relive stress in the inner thigh. It also it helps with other things but I can't think of them right now.

[@siva529]

Hamstrings stretch coz it helps a lot in my kicks and splits

Thank you! Shit I was getting annoyed lol

[@josephkusabs46]

Love how you explained the importance of the stretches! I've done walk-through before but never the other two stretches, i will be sure to practice all three regularly.

[@Barzakhi]

I appreciate the simplicity yet depth of the exercices/stretches/movements in your videos.

[@geoffreylevens9045]

Hip flexor stretch (quads AND psoas) is crucial for low back health a mobility in general. Most people in our culture have grossly shortened hip flexors from sitting so much.

[@lvasquez2825]

I have been doing these stretches for years and never knew that they aid in mobility. I'm almost 50 yrs old and feel like a kid after my routine. Thanks for posting and I will be waiting for you next video.

[@morvarid73]

Hey Tapp brothers! Another A M A I Z I N G video. All of your videos are so educating and helpful. Everyone has to watch them.

[@harishdoodnauth4932]

[@taavettivaltamo8737]

Thanks TappBros, really helpful tutorial! My favourite mobility exercise is a full squat with trunk twist and reach. Why? Because it feels so good and gets me going :)

[@Coffee7573]

Thank you for the great tips! I felt stronger with my scapula and rotator cuff pain r gone!👍

[@fantasma2045]

Excellent video,Thanks. How many times in a day could repeat those exercises?

[@joanS12]

Always fun to have video explaining how to be flexible, showed by a person not more flexible than the average

[@tmac2368]

The fact that you like Rothbard and Von Mises makes me a bigger fan of your channel... keep it up !

[@akinwunmisamuel19]

This video is very helpful.Thanks a bunch

[@retribution3180]

This is great! A personal train and I personally think this is awesome

[@BarefootMovers]

Such a great video! Three simple ones but hitting extremely important areas. And as you mentioned, having "enough" flexibility in those will correlate in much more efficient overall movement. Thanks!

[@dejeon0195]

Thank you. I will do that.

[@5winder]

Nice helpful hints, man. God bless you.

[@emanuelwoodhouse3809]

Thank you coach really needed that

[@sarahyangyijing6660]

Amazing video. Thank you

[@user-qj4xo5lo4z]

My favorite stretch is the hip hinch(I hope u wrote it right) because I'm just struggling with my das/kash/lazy vault also as you guys said in the video this will also help you to take more impact when you(aka me or the viewer) land and will help you to get the perfect pk landing and I might also like the shoulder stretch cuz yeah I'm kinda struggling in reaching up walls still didn't try to climb walls but I know myself anyways thanks to you guys you both made me learn the perfect pk roll and basic landing soon I will lose weight get the agility,mobility and flexibility and become a good parkour player thanks 👍👌

[@viktoriawilliams7717]

[@DedicatedSpartan]

Useful Information, thank you.

[@edi9892]

The first two I practiced a long time without ever really progressing. Especially people that sit a lot will need more than doing that exercise 1x15min per day...

[@diliprai5768]

Great I will try it!!!

[@thesisters7929]

Thank you

[@richardsrensen4219]

i am just doing them for back hips and shoulder pain and they are good based on one days training

[@winstonaguirre3161]

[@barrymonteiro8893]

Dude, you are the real deal! The flexibility tips should be helpful for me. Thanks for the video.

[@snakeintellectualadam5944]

Thanks so much 😃

[@spartacus871]

Great video young man!!

[@alfernandezfdz6688]

Honestly.... I hâte stretching 😜 but i like doing "salutation to thé sun" yoga style to stretch and warm up legs and Spine. Thank's for those tips !

[@spinnettdesigns]

Shoulder range of motion it A+ and squats are no problem but the hinge is killer for me, I have horrible back pain. Just sitting with my back straight hurts so much. (L5/S1) Is this more of a tight hamstring, glute, calf issue? I can't seem to get to the "bottom" of my back pain and it drives me crazy. I'm 100% committed to getting the hinge motion, any ideas? I think you two are the most dynamic guys on utube, I'm so impressed by you! Thanks so much for the videos and introduction to Parkour

[@lisengel2498]

Inspiring as always

[@ettu1333]

Useful, thank you :) But I'm confused about that stretch you did with the shoulders. When you lift your arms up, what are you doing at that point? I can't see the stretch you do at the top as you're standing side-on so nothing visibly changes. Are you stretching your arms sideways or just holding them up?

[@leolok2632]

Should demonstrate in slow motion and REPEAT please, otherwise we got confused. Also please explain how to align BREATHING with each exercise, ie when to breathe in, when to hole if at all and when to breathe out.

[@kelionpro9612]

Epic Stretches! I can’t wait to try them out to increase my movement skills!

[@TappBrothers]

Hey Jazmin, I'm glad our videos have helped! Thanks for sharing the love :) Keep up the training

[@venkatlalith4741]

jazmin graham hi ...

[@andrewmccorkell652]

Just found the channel , thanks for the information. Surprised to see many negative comments on such a helpful presentation. A lot of unhappy toxic people out there who might be better of getting off the sofa and going for a jog or at least a walk.

[@lethalassassin1754]

You guys give the best in depth tutorials for parkour and a lot just fitness and I love it!

[@josephkusabs46]

So true!

[@TappBrothers]

Awesome to hear Adam! Appreciate the love my friend!

[@peterparkourz3444]

@TappBrothers Thanks for the video but i have a question do you have to workout for parkour

[@michaelbonner5397]

This is cool!

[@sunitasaini6657]

Thanks respect from india jai hind 🇮🇳

[@martysomoco]

I think that the content and focus of the Tapp brothers’ videos are very helpful, unique, and cutting edge. But, there is just too much talking before demonstrations.

[@GatorChristiaansen]

This is awesome

[@TappBrothers]

Thanks Gator!

[@michaelbonner5397]

Cool!

[@barryk3692]

Interesting information thank's less talk & more demonstration please

[@Ferelmakina]

in love with the intro

[@serbanradu3845]

Hi! Big fan here, but your download link for the 5 day parkour course just takes you to a page where you are asked to submit name and email but no box where you can actually write them.

[@Deb-nf6di]

Hi, I found this video very interesting. You said these stretches are for all ages. I am a 56 year old female and I cannot stretch my arms up as in your first stretch. Would it be possible for me to ever be able to do so or has my time passed? Thank you

[@leonorgonzalez2046]

Need exercise for people like me 64 and up thanks for this video

[@AntiquatedApe]

I really dig the Rothbard shirt!

[@marcusconway4]

Exercises start at 2m 42s, very basic exercises , 1.stretch up with arms. 2. Touch toes, 3. Squats.....exercises that have been explained thousands of times before!

[@titoycaylolapanganiban6502]

I agree

[@christine1962ful]

Hi not sure what you mean on the stretching instructions. Could you please explain exactly what you mean? Doing 3 set of 10 what? Do you have to hold each rep for ex amount of seconds. Tia

[@ameensayyad5133]

[@ss6273]

Hi! Great incentive video! My question is about squats, specifically!Back in my younger days I was committed in endurance and competitive horse racing of up to 100 miles per race, I WAS really in shape like you guys are! I was interviewed on a radio station and challenged by the WWWF to become a professional Woman wrestler instead of finishing medical school. I took on the challenge and was being trained by Jessie The Body, Ventura. Jessie couldn't believe my powerful leg strength from caring and riding horses all my life, so one day he said he wanted to SEE how many squats I could do! After doing about 40, without effort, he then added a 25# bar for me to hold over my shoulders as I did the squats. I made it to 129! WELL, let me tell you, I never have wanted to do another squat, for the rest of my LIFE!!! Now YOU GUYS HAVE INSPIRED ME TO DO SQUATS AND EVERY THING ELSE (ALMOST) that you offer! MY BIGGEST QUESTION: HOW SHOULD SOMEONE LIKE ME, WHO IS NOW 61 YEARS OLD, FEMALE AND IN BETTER SHAPE THAN MOST WOMEN MY AGE, GENTLY START BACK TO DO THE THING I HATE THE MOST, WITH LEGS THAT DONT WANT TO DO A SINGLE SQUAT, EVER AGAIN?!!! THANKS Much! I'll appreciate the challenge!
