[@TheLeanMachines]

Please do let us know if you want the upper body version too peeps!

[@dandnjsjsjs1496]

TheLeanMachines yes please

[@mollyjohns2298]

Yes yes please! Really need upperbody

[@355osarahm]

is this ok to do at night as a mobility workout not before a lift?

[@ryandunne123]

we really do 😂

[@TheLeanMachines]

Sure 👍🏻

[@ludo1312_]

I've been following this routine for 2 months now and i'm proud to say that i now know this video entirely by heart

[@felipemalagon8673]

it's not that difficult

[@jaketaylor5272]

How well have u progressed in two months ?

[@ludo1312_]

@@jaketaylor5272 progress was great, im not doing it anymore tho

[@cezeryerak]

I don’t know how many times I have watched this video since its release, I have watching it while camping, I watched it after I got hurt surfing, I watched it 3 times per week during pandemic, I watched it with my girlfriend during Netflix and on and on… I tried other videos, but this one was special for me since it introduced clueless me to the world of mobility training, eventually to yoga as well 😅 although you guys moved the content creation to Instagram since the world has moved away form here, I still appreciate your old videos. Thank you for all!!

[@trevorsimison2131]

I’ve simply added your stretching routine after oly lifting sessions and I pr’d multiple lifts that week. Thanks so much!

[@royercrafter]

TIMESTAMPS 1:17 first stretch 3:15 same stretch but deeper 5:18 leg stretch n. 1 left leg 7:50 leg stretch n.1 right leg 10:55 ab / back stretch 13:20 squat 15:16 leg stretch n.2 right leg 17:55 leg stretch n2 left leg 19:53 the final boss I'm in love with this routine. My mobility is at its peak, my squat is as profound as the ocean and my body feels as strong as ever. Do not skip the last stretch, it will forever hurt but your body will love you for it. You guys have no idea how lucky we are to have access to such world-class information, for free. God bless the lean machines! Much love from Mexico.

[@leesaunders7232]

You're a legend! It's always a bit disheartening to see people post stuff on KZbin and IG that 90% of people will never be able to do. As 44 year man who has been inflexible his whole life thank god I found you.

[@jennywarren5735]

This was really great! The music, the amount of time holding each stretch, and the simple/non-flashy instructions are really appreciated. Thank you!

[@88chimes]

cant wait to try this. I've done your previous 20 min mobility workout about 30 times :)

[@TheLeanMachines]

Thanks glad to know people use it

[@ashleyvandescheur]

Adnan Nasser same!!

[@TheRAWRpham]

DUDE TOO

[@TheRAWRpham]

Your last 20 minute stretching video was seriously one of my favorite videos to use cause I have the worlds smallest hips and I'm stuck behind a desk for most of the day. So that video gets used by me at least twice a week (usually on my off days) cause it helps my hips so much. So having this video got me all excited cause I like that I can have another video to use. I love love love these stretching videos for general hip relief and also my hips are so sore when I'm on my period so these offer so much relief. THANKS A BUNCH FOR THESE VIDEOS.

[@disco325i]

Been after something like this for ages - thanks so much. Would love an upper body one especially for the shoulders and traps 👍👍

[@arsheenaveed5157]

Yesss plz an upper body routine! Loved this video and your previous flexibility and mobility workout. Have been doing it most days of the week for a while and it has helped so much with my hip mobility and squat depth!

[@richiebradshaw]

Please, please, please do the upper body version as well guys :)

[@dymitrkuzniecow5076]

Done this like 10 or 15 times. So good. Hope you make back mobility videos and arms mobility too!

[@trustphobic3599]

Thank you so much for this. I’ve been using your previous mobility video for months and have been looking for something similar since! This is just what I needed after a long day at work to wind down!

[@caryglass9763]

Just finished your workout, and I loved it! My very favorite stretch was the last one, and the most difficult one for me was the first stretch❤

[@kathyott1418]

Got to say I came across a few months ago and I absolutely love watching your videos, I’m 49 years old and my flexibility is pretty good for my age, but I got to say I don’t really like the exercise when I have to open my legs and hold onto the kettle bell or the dumbbell to stretch forward LOL I had knee surgery in November so I’m still doing physical therapy for that so there’s definitely restrictions there you’re awesome that we really appreciate you

[@leeadams3211]

First day doing this, suprised how much mobility my body actually held untrained! Can’t wait to see the stretching progress

[@lalalaLiNAA]

Love these videos!! As someone who has a decent amount of mobility in my body, but doesn't know how to stretch or which movement works best for fatigued areas, these videos really help! THANK YOU!

[@valaydonkessen3227]

I watch this video everyday because I'm too lazy to time myself. So i just follow your timing 😊

[@functionalfitness]

With all the stay at home time I have divided to work on mobility and these videos are perfect so thank you 🙏🏼

[@noahjones9557]

Definitely upper body please. That was really helpful. Thanks man

[@petewoodroffe1056]

Thanks for this, would love to see an upper body one

[@nicolahocking5981]

Great video. Definitely would like upper body version. ☓

[@adamlawrence3651]

Just found this. Been using your upperbody routine for a while. Really good routine. Being a below knee amputee I was able to do everything except the deep squat. I am finding a lot of tightness down the inside of my left leg lately(good leg). I have been training lunchtimes lately since having first child a year ago! It means my gym session is time limited so only do a quick hamstring and hip strerch then try to do mobility at night a few times a week. I think this is really helping.

[@amandacb88]

This was brilliant John☺️ thank you💖 would love an upper body one as we have just started to do olympic lifts. It would help us loads!

[@atsiros]

This is great. I used to be a gymnast but now struggle with a lot of these! Hello aging. Thanks.

[@thomasgraham9960]

A simple but a great mobility session; I look forward to the upper body version

[@roberthamill1107]

Holy cow my legs are tight 😫😫

[@glenporteous1492]

Guys 1st time commenter but loving your vids!! The lower is fantastic but think most people would agree that it’s harder to find a really solid upper mobility routine. Hanging out for this. 🏋🏻‍♂️👍

[@nangamsom934]

Loved it.... Hated the first and last stretch... But I'll be back

[@serenaamlingmeier5325]

Loved this! I'm glad to see someone else uncomfortable and in pain doing some of the stretches. Love the dry sense of humor. Lord knows I need it to get me in out of some of those stretches!

[@deanbuckingham8064]

Love an upper body please guys!! The the mobility workouts

[@danielsanderisaksen8668]

Brilliant! Definitely coming back to this session!

[@neilrockpaz7265]

thank you so much !!! this really helped me alot with my squat

[@brianshaw4135]

Great video love the slow and measured way you tell and show the workout. Can’t wait for upper body. I will have to send you my stretch pre workout. I have to do loads before I workout as age is a factor( now 67) keep it up.

[@tallpall1976]

I ve just started last couple of days doing more stretching in the gym and did some of these aswell and I find I feel more loose and flexible so I'm gonna keep doing it hope you do the top half as well John😉

[@minananananan1842]

I have arthritis and have very bad ROM but I would like to get as much out of lifts as I can so I can go foward to have a succeful sports career. I’m hoping by the eng if quarantine

[@QGeorges]

Hi, I'm new to your channel and have been following these mobility videos for a few days. Great stuffs! They really help a lot after the office hours/gym sessions! Funny thing about the last exercise in the video is that I can lie on my back with no problem but not be able to support myself with my elbows like John does in the video hah. Anyway, thanks a lot for sharing these exercises with us!

[@hannahsollis6037]

Awesome video - definitely up for the upper body version- that last stretch sucks !!

[@willbirch-tomlinson9142]

Upper body version please👍🏼

[@kamranhussain3159]

Ive been waiting for this a long time, upper body would be cool. Lower body is a bigger issue for me, I cant L-sit properly

[@tanyardavidson]

Just discovered your vids. Super stoked and subscribed. Thx for keeping it real and fun!

[@davel3616]

Thanks for posting this! I’ve gone through it a few times and finally realized that at 7:32 you’re talking about a “cricket ball.” Ha ha, in the states we’d be inclined to go for a Lacrosse ball.

[@thomassiswick8963]

Great video. Enjoyed it, definitely going to redo it once or twice a week!

[@scorpleeon]

Just what my post leg days and running day pins needed. Tks

[@fijimichelle]

Love your stretching videos, do them most days with soccer playing kids too!

[@antmarqs]

Great vid. Please do a upper body version😊

[@allisontryon2079]

Yes please upper body.

[@judethomas3574]

Really cool video... thanks man. Look forward to the upper body set. Cheers

[@mattiassvanholm6]

Awesome!! Give us the upper body version

[@sabivamosi834]

Amazing video! Very much appreciated! Even to lean on my feet , my ankles were tearing apart so you can feel a lot better about yourself mate😂. Great help, feel tons better even after the first time!

[@jakubkulesza3299]

Awesome video, I’m like wood so it helps me a lot. Thanks a lot!

[@fitblooms]

Wowww this routine is powerfull💪💓

[@tywhite9724]

I train with weights 4x a week and cardio once a week. I do mobility before my lights but Would you recommend doing this type of thing a few times a week on the days I’m not training my legs? When should I aim to do this and how often?

[@jordandancaster9600]

Great stuff guys, might see you about norwich

[@Audikontroller1]

thanks man, feel allot better

[@MrMe1609]

i knew I wasn^t a flexibility ninja but it showed my I'm flexibility lamppost need to do this a few times more thanks and yes upper body please

[@thehillsx1]

Some physio guy told me that last exercise you did is bad. Can't remember exactly why, something about stretching the patela or putting excessive strain on the knee cap. Would be good if you could give us your thoughts on the last exercise. Thanks

[@merieagle]

That was absolutely awful in the best possible way XD thank you!

[@jeffkyeng1471]

Haha, I can hear the British accent off of this, Sends much love from Kenya👋

[@KiraiBK]

Please do upper body too. Question: I’ve had limited flexibility behind my right knee since I was a kid. If i did the split leg stretch with the dumbbell, I’d get a slightly painful pull by my left knee (inner part). No injury that I’m aware of. I’m now thirty (cough cough) and still don’t have great range of motion. Now when I squat, I hear popping in my knees and hips. It’s not painful. Would these stretches help with those issues. I feel like a chiropractor may help with realignment but the pain in my knee has never been diagnosed or helped by PT or the chiropractor.

[@niklasfagerudd8506]

great Flexibility & Mobility session!

[@jacobwitzburg8934]

I love your video. You rock!

[@TIKTOK-tx2cc]

Hello should i do stretching or weight lifting first ?

[@Caesar00Chan]

Would this be good to do after my session? Or preferably when it’s not on a day I’m training

[@toeknee4301]

How frequently should I complete these stretches?

[@hieppham2247]

Should i do this routine after or before the workout?

[@jaketaylor5272]

is it normal to experience quite a bit of discomfort in the ankles, doing some of these stretches? Would that just indicate tight ankles.

[@dandnjsjsjs1496]

This is what I needed, loved it

[@TheLeanMachines]

Awesome! I think we all neglect stretching if we’re honest

[@jacobllgaard1079]

aaannd... ready for the next one

[@duchessofdark]

So helpful - thank you

Returning to this after discovering this years ago!

Good stuff 💪🏼💪🏼

[@adams962]

In the position where John is doing a half split and sits on his foot, I always get cramps in my foot. What is causing these cramps?

[@Ryzbie]

Hey just wanted to tune in to say thank you!

[@annisfelesakis2677]

good work!

[@TinyAcresFarmHome]

Thanks! Needed this!

[@HASANEq]

Can you do this flexibility/mobility stretches after training but at home? Like 1-2 hours before going to sleep?

[@jajayesyes1388]

Just do it bro, dont ask so much

[@arthurs.6574]

Thx for this video ✌

[@sandravalenzuelamilla7941]

This is for before work out or after? Or it must be done alone

[@bellettispaghetti]

Can't remember if you said it in the video or not, but do you need to warm up before doing this?

[@hellofellowhumanbeings]

Hi, Always! You NEVER stretch a cold muscle. Not only it is not as effective as with muscles that have been probably warmed but you also risk to seriously injure yourself. Always a warm-up before.

[@kcook975]

Had my knees pop air (like clinking your knuckles )in the second stretches o my word lol love this routine though

[@blblbl8]

Is the last one ment to kill ur knees

[@toeknee4301]

Idk but it absolutely hurts the heck out of my ankles

[@burakcanmutlu2181]

@@toeknee4301 hurt my back

[@joshuahome2175]

Hi Guys, I might have missed it, but should I do this before/after a workout or at another time not when working out?

[@TheLeanMachines]

Joshua Home after or on a separate occasion mate

[@joshuahome2175]

TheLeanMachines cheers :) keep up the great stuff! Can you guys do a video on a warm up/activation before sport? I play basketball and my knees are normally so sore after

[@sliddjur]

I cannot do the last pose. My right ankle is way to tight and hurts. Suggestions?

[@dovydasnesvarbu7859]

Is this before or after work out ?

[@plorti]

Love it by far :)

[@NopeNotHere.]

Did you ever make the second video? I can't find it anywhere.

[@Blujay188]

took me awhile to find it too. Here's the title "Flexibility & Mobility Routine - Upper Body!"

[@sandroreves1176]

I feel almost everything behind my knees am I doing something wrong?

[@konstakoivisto202]

U are just super tight

[@groomish2085]

Upper body would be great :)

[@joedan5199]

Would it be reasonable to do this and your upper body mobility work an hour a day? With the caveat that you shouldn’t do it immediately prior to lifting, of course

[@exalibur1980]

Does this mean you do this stretching on not-olympic weightlifting days?

[@franmajich]

If you can't do pidgeon pose with 90 degree angle due to descreased flexibility of what muscle could that be?

[@bentheknol09]

franmajich it could be that your hip flexors aren’t flexible if i’m correct😅 but they Will get more flexible with time trust me, hope this helped

[@YogionMove]

nice video

[@prasanthvelpula5443]

Which one is for ankles

[@RudyRudolph]

what kind of mat is that?
