Thx Doc! Love the stretches! Would u do a video on hip impingement syndrome. In particular, the stretch at 5:00, i don't feel any stretch in the lower back bec of the impingement in the hip inhibiting the full range of motion to bring the knee to the other side of the hip.

I was wondering if you would please offer some advice on how to deal with ddd and bridging of my lower back. L5 SI area. Thank you.

I can feel them working and just love when I get that pop! Thank you so much for making and sharing these wonderful videos.

I've been hitting the gym hard the past 6 weeks and the middle of my back has really stiffened up. I've been doing the standard cat and dog movements without much relief. The wall and chair streches relieved almost of my tightness. Thank you sir. I liked and subscribed. Great content

The relief you get from the first one is unreal.. I recommend doing this in a warm room to avoid injuries, muscles also tend to stretch more when your body is warm. But I give this many credit, these stretches are very efficient

Hey, I did your streching today and I will keep doing it for like 2 weeks and see if there will be a nice improvement. I am having problems with stuff back and neck for a while, i can't do many things when I wake up and it slowly improves during the day, but not fully. Sometimes I can't sleep well either, because of it. While doing some of the excerces I even feel pain in my check, which happens sometimes with the stiffness, when i push my check it hurts. So I guess I have a lot of work to do to get better. I think all started more than year ago and it was getting only worse. A x-ray of my back and neck didn't show up much, it was pretty much all okay, so I was looking for long time to find out what can fix it, chiropactor didn't do much of a difference either, so this is my new hope. Thank you for all the videos and if you can't help me, then nothing can. Definitely felt a lot of pressure on my upper and lower back after these, so hopefully it will start relieving my pain.
