Message from a dancer! Yes, static stretching will improve your flexibility and range of motion, but ONLY IF YOU ARE PROPERLY WARMED UP. It is important for dancers to know the desensitization of static stretching will AFFECT YOUR DANCING and your proprioception! DO NOT STATIC STRETCH AS A WARM UP BEFORE CLASS! Dynamic stretch or do cardio! Static stretching is a great way to cool down and relax your muscles after an intense class.

The spinal cord is a column of nerves that connects your brain with the rest of your body, allowing you to control your movements. Without a spinal cord, you could not move any part of your body, and your organs could not function. This is why keeping your spine healthy is vital if you want to live an active life.

Prior to leg stretches, I have always found that a light-duty short-distance run, prior to stretching, makes the leg stretches much easier to perform. After the light-duty short run, do your leg stretches. Once the leg stretches are done, then you can run for long distances, really hard, with a much reduced risk of injury (that is, if you don't stub-your-toe, or something similar, while you run.)

I used to be a contortionist... and gymnast and all around athlete. Being flexible was natural, I could do splits from my first class. I'm 45 and I can still drop into splits with no warm up. I had a great muscle structure, as an athlete and I never really lost it even when I gained weight with my child. But an accident in my 30s left me immobile for a year. I lost a lot of muscle mass and then ended up with intense pain, all day every day, almost bed bound. It wasn't until a specialist noticed me flexing my wrists and cracking my joints that she gave me the Beighton test, I scored 9/9. She diagnose me with Type 3 Elhers Danlos Syndrome after 3 years of looking for an answer. I also have CFS, Fibro, osteoarthritis and POTS but I'm still active as I can be, most don't notice I'm in pain. But since that accident my muscles have tightened up so I have to be careful to keep them warm and take muscle relaxers all day. It's a crazy disease! There's more than I can tell in a KZbin comment.

I took some contortion classes and pain / discomfort tolerance is a HUGE component (for me anyway). I have a pretty flexible back, naturally, so I learned pretty quickly how to do that "feet on your head" move (Although it wasn't as perfect as the girl in this video) my biggest problem with that move was breathing: the torso was so extended, that it felt like my ribcage or diaphragm couldn't expand to take a breath. Also, my throat /upper chest was supporting a lot of my body weight, so it's even more difficult to breathe.

I am so grateful that I started yoga right before I suffered a flare up of epic proportions that lasted 2 years. Stretching was all I could really do until I found a medication that actually helped me (the 5th medication I tried, and had to try them all for a few months each). Despite the rheumatic flare, I still managed to gain flexibility. Slowly, but I am more flexible now that I have ever been in my life. If I can do it, pretty much anyone can do it!

Eventually, I scrambled up to my feet and the next day I had huge black bruises along my upper inner thighs.

They didn’t mention that within the same stretching session, the length of time matters to increase muscle flexibility. The muscle spindle fibers will tell the muscle to contract as a protective measure when a stretch is first initiated (which they did mention) and then in response to a sustained stretch (think 30-60 seconds), the golgi tendon organs (sensory organ within the muscle tendon) will allow the muscle to relax by inhibiting the protective contraction. The golgi tendon organ will then process the newly attained range of motion as the muscle’s normal length, thus leading to semipermanant changes in muscle length. The video was great and informative, I just wanted to elaborate on some of the mechanisms involved since I’m a PT student.

The research she linked says more than 15-30 seconds x 2-4 repetitions x 5 days/wk has no significant further benefit. But for older people, 60 seconds is recommended. You may have learned that this golgi adaptation takes longer because PT clients have different needs because of injury (and are often elderly) Or perhaps the 2-4x repetitions help activate it as the total time would be 60-120 seconds in a session.

It was questioned in the source material provided here. No answer was provided, but doubt was cast on the conventional belief that stretching reduces injury. I still have questions about this "optimal" routine. The articles I could access for free claimed it took 2 to 4 reps of 30 seconds each to achieve maximal range of motion. So is it 60 seconds per day not including warm up sets? do I have to reach my full range of motion? that seems likely. Perhaps the take away is to stretch 3 times a week for twice as long; 120 seconds per muscle group. It is per muscle group right? Too bad I don't have access to the full study, I may have to extort a student.

Awesome video! :) What hasn't been pointed out is the myofascial connections through your whole body which work together and can actually change tension and shape through the myofibroblasts. This extends way further than only one muscle group, but through entire chains of fascia, muscle's and joints throught the whole body. In my experience as a physical therapist breath-release exercises speed up the process, because the myofibroblasts wil instantly change the line of pull if addressed correctly. This makes it possible to increase range of motion drastically in a matter of minutes without negative side effects! :D

Thanks. This is really good. I'm 55 and I'm more flexible now than I was when I was 20. I started doing yoga regularly in '04. I do a few basic poses just before I go to sleep each night. This year especially I've noticed a lot more flexibility and greatly reduced pain in my hips and lower back and ankles. I worked in the woods (lumber) when I was younger and had some pain from impacts on my joints and so on. I really wanted to try a natural approach. I learned that yoga does work despite being told by many people over the years that it wouldn't. 😁👍

As a hypermobile person who really enjoys gymnastics I can say that it doesn’t bring only positives, as it makes it much easier to dislocate parts of the body and sprain ligaments, It also makes it take longer to recover from muscular pains after workouts, and it increases your chances of having asthma, for example. One thing that I don’t see people talk much about is how hard it is to learn to write while having hypermobility, since our hands don’t grip in the same way it makes it really painful to write for long periods of time, and specially when you’re learning, writing stuff will take longer and your hand writing will be terrible, which made my parents put me in calligraphy lessons, that lead to me going to physiotherapy for a whole semester when I was young.

Excellent! I'm an engineer who, after 30 years in industry, is becoming both a high school STEM teacher and a certified triathlon coach. I greatly enjoy the process of using data as part of the processes of getting fit, improving performance, and staying injury-free for a lifetime of sports participation (well into one's 80's). I've long known that "less is more" when it comes to stretching, and that gentle static stretching is vastly preferred over more forceful dynamic stretching, but this is the best presentation I've seen summarizing the extremes, the process, the bio-physical mechanisms, and the data. Well done! Thanks!

BobC It all depends on the kind of flexibility you need to build, and not only due to the effect of stretching on max strength output. We've known for a long time that the actual flexibility is build through static stretching, BUT for certain sports, dynamic stretching can be neccesary to include as its also getting nerves used to quick stretches.(taekwondo vs obstacle racing, slightly different needs.

This was a brief summary. The findings were that for ROM improvements static stretching (it didn't say gentle) is superior (nor did it say vastly). However the articles also claimed static stretching reduces performance in cardio and strength training more so than dynamic stretching. It could be that dynamic stretching is the way to go when combined with a balanced fitness routine that combines strength, cardio and flexibility.
@kotryna56826 жыл бұрын
I've said this in a different comment reply, but dynamic stretching is important for warming up before a workout. After the workout is the perfect time to do static stretching. As an exercise science student, we've looked at many studies that show static stretching before performing certain exercises (like a vertical jump for example) actually impair that movement, whereas dynamic stretching improves it. However, *chronic* static stretching *post*-workout improves flexibility, strength, and power. Both types are important, but the timing has to be right.

Not to be a downer, but there's disadvantages in taking it too far. I have a friend with Ehlers-Danlo Syndrome, which is where a genetic defect creates hypermobility of varying degrees, up to the most extreme sort. When younger, some folks can be contortionists; when older, they can dislocate bones accidentally to the point of permanent constant injury. As in, "dislocate shoulders by turning in bed" type of difficulties. They can also have connective-tissue problems with the cartilage in organs like the heart. Early diagnosis is better for avoiding injury and getting treatment. I'd advise anybody who's clearly hypermobile to get tested for this.

I am very sorry that it has frightened, that is not helpful for you. I do hope you can get it checked on if you think it is a risk, this is one of those conditions where early correct diagnoses allows you to manage it much better. I do not know how flexible you are, relative to your body type and age group, and I don't know what genetic testing might be able to show. I also don't know whattearly issues would look like or when it might appear. The disorder used to be unseen, only found out later on, when other symptoms were cleared out of the way. The folks I know had very mixed experiences with doctors, some very good and some extremely frustrating. Would you prefer to contact local Ehlers Danlo patient groups, and see what they have to say? Just running a search on the name, I see 3 groups on Facebook, for instance, whose members are patients and family of patients. I'm sure all of them would be happy to give advice for someone questioning their status.

I'm a fairly young lazy person and don't do anything special like exercise (other than simply running every now and then) and never stretched before. Stretched for the splits every other day and about 3 months in, I stopped because it hurt more than usual, and stretching actually did nothing to help. I'd gain flexibility then lose it _right_ after meaning the same minute I stretched. *Long story short* there is such thing as too much. Just listen to your body and know when the pain is an unhealthy kind of pain. Also, age does affect stretching. The older you are, the more fragile you are. Better get started before your body gets stiffer.

Well I know when you're an infant you have incredible amounts of flexibility and lose it if you dont keep it up. For examples notice how easy it is for infants to out their foot in their mouth or behind their head without even straining or batting an eye look at how they sit with their hips pulled back and legs totally out of wack and it's just comfortable for them. Parents forcing them to sit "normal " us sitting in chairs straight and basically overall putting our body in a routine is what causes flexibility to go away with age. Too much and our body lets us know through injury and even then sometimes if we get right back into it our bodies can stretch further than they could before without injury. So for the most part theres no such thing as too much in terms of what you see others doing if they can do it especially without strain it's not too much...for them....huge emphasis on for them. Chances are they've trained their bodies to get there by either stretching daily or never stop stretching ie never losing their flexibility

Only 5 min per week? How much can u do in one minute a day?
@phucanhell6 жыл бұрын
it'd be 5 mins a week per stretch, i.e. each muscle group/range of motion. 5 mins for shoulders, 5 mins for calves, 5 mins for hamstring, etc.

If your trying to get a split or a better back end or something of the sort do a minute of each, for example do a one minute left split a one minute right split and one minute of rocking back and fourth in a back end.

When my friend asked me where i learnt to do a backbend i told her Well you see funny story, i was at my friends house and we were talking about backbends and she asked if i could do one. In my mind i couldnt but i desided to try so i leant backwards and landed. To this day i dont know if it was because my brain knew how to do one, it was my instincs kicking in making sure i didnt get hurt or it was just pure luck of me not getting embarrassed.

If you are hyper mobile from a connective tissue disorder,muscles tighten to compensate for lax over stretched ligaments and tendons. It’s all right to go beyond normal range of motion but not to continually hold it in that position. Overtime the ligaments and tendons will just stretch with horrible consequences later.

4:25 - actually, pain we feel during stretching is produced by our brain. We have very accurate stretching sensors that tells our brain how much each muscle stretches at each moment and our brain artificially limits range of motion and tell us that it is a painful to go above it. Pain can be caused by other factors too. My take is that you will not feel pain because brain will adjust allowed range of motion when it receives evidence that everything is fine when muscle stretches a bit more than before, so it is not like you are numb to pain, there is no pain at all after some amount of exercises.

Thank you, thank you! I have multiple sclerosis and my leg muscles are becoming shorter with time and spacsisity. I see there's more hope than I thought in the physics of stretching. I thought it just lengthened the muscle fibers but the addition of water and stem cells is great. More rationale to get up and move! 😉😊😀❤ Inspiration.

Like Truly Famous said, unfortunately most people that are hyperflexable don’t get those moves for free. A common thing is EDS, which leads to a lot of major health problems and extreme joint pain. It varies a lot as some people can be confined to a wheelchair for 6 days a week while some get stretchy skin or more flexibility. Frequent dislocations don’t help the pain either.

same, whenever i hurt my back (from sitting for long durations and improper posture), i couldn't relieve my back pain from sitting/standing straight, and it hurts a lot to twist and turn my torso, but stretching my back, i.e. downward dog, child's pose, seal position and doing planks helps a lot because not only it lengthens my back, it straigthens it without any movement and engages my core too so my back is more supported by my core
