Shit me too, was going to say the same

@@VanLifeIsAPsyOp you cant get full ROM if you are severely tight in areas.. but ok

Lol

@@andrewevans7992incorrect if you can only go so far that is your range of motion my full rom and someone else’s are not guaranteed to be the same

Lol you can do it with regular free weights too.....

I dont have a shattered hip but just my strengthening my core and hips.....knee pain and back pain gone. ❤

Damn dude, can explain what happened and your recovery up to now? Hope you get to %100 ASAP

@@JsilntParkour90 fell outta tree stand shattered hip and pelvis broke 10 ribs bruised and dented femur broken shoulder. Doing well considering the misery I've been threw. I can almost walk without pain it's been very long road. However the less I moved the more I hurt. Blood flow and oxygen heals at all levels. Doctors say I am a miracle with my recovery. I lost weight and fasted from the get go. Also I kept it simple a few good stretches and exercises and stuck with them everyday no matter the pain levels. The first 2 years I barely slept it sucked so bad. My point is there's always light at the end if you stay consistent. Keep it simple so you don't overwhelm yourself. I take nothing no aspirin no supplements no pain meds. Also when I fell I was alone and had to crawl to my truck and climb in it and called for my own medivac. 7 days trauma unit 2 weeks rehab hospital 2 months wheelchair several months with walker several more with cane currently do a 5 k a day on treadmill at 15 minute mile it's tough sometimes but I still grind. You have to believe and go for it period. Hopefully this helps ya a little or motivates ya. It's been just short of 5 years since accident. Also constant prayers to the good Lord and thanks. The human body is amazing if you let it be . Take care never give

This gives me hope. I’m three years in with a fractured femoral neck and trying to find the right combo of stretching, etc to strengthen my muscles for support and help with mobility/flexibility in my hip.

Even if it’s time consuming regular stretching is amazing too. Just get moving and you’ll see what works best for you

I mean from that logic the squat is a stretch.

The line between stretching and 'other exercise' is arbritary in my op. Also the western approach is overly technical to the point that sometimes, in our effort to reason out everything, we forget where we started lol

@@FireflowerDancer Western approach? As opposed to what or where? All the stretching I learned from early age is from Chinese and Japanese martial arts training. Later on it was from yoga which might well be the most “technical” stretching of them all. So what is this “other” that you’re alluding to?

@@FireflowerDancer Or is it that the “eastern” stretching is often fundamental to the excercise or activity? For the martial arts, stretching was treated as separate and preparatory but at the same time a necessary and intrinsic thing. Except maybe kendo. We basically did warm ups.

@@DiscoFang I'm not sure what you're asking specifically, it's a pretty big topic. For starters, I'd recommend looking up: Joseph Pilates' theories, history of body building, and calisthenics. Also, there's a very knowledgable lady that has a KZfaq channel, Fit and Bendy; she's pretty technical in her guidance and explanations- in a good way, lol. To clarify, I'm not comparing Eastern and Western, just noting that the western way of thinking can get over-analytical. They often focus on one just 'piece' of a theory or discipline instead of teaching the whole thing. Like oversimplying a concept to the point where it no longer applies. Complexity is important.

This and the atg split squat are my main mobility exercises cuz they feel soo good

Well, it is a strength exercise, it builds strength pretty much everywhere in your legs.

cool but has nothing to do with hip mobility really

not "nothing". it improves hip extension. it doesn't improve every plane of motion in the hips, though. @@connorleary3080

​@@connorleary3080ATG SS helps with front split. The exercise in the vid helps with side split.

tall guys let's go!

I once was 6ft5in 185 before Glyphosate ruined my health im 6ft 4in now 175

I am 6'5" and 215 pounds lean muscle you guys must be lanky skeletons. 💀

@@FringeWizard2 Fr lool. I’m 6’1, easily 191 lb. Like 14% bf. Lean muscle.

@@garybrown9719all the best to you sir 🙏

It is the best

Both versions of the Cossack Squat he shows here are part of Shaolin Long Fist Kung Fu. One version is called Repulse The Tiger and the other Swallow Skips Water. Although, I would say Strengthside's versions are essential because of the control and resistance emphases. If I could go back in time, I would do these some days and the Kung Fu versions others.

Didn’t know what the horse stance was but after reading your comment, I searched for it on KZfaq and will definitely add this to my repertoire.

Every day me and my classmates would ask can we try this or that yet. Our instructor would always say.... how is your horse stance?

So simple, but you just blew my mind! I have to try this.👍

@@balazsbrankovics2996 just stick to it, enjoy it and you will see big change in strength and flexibility. 😉

that's a great one!

I can't even do one cause i can't straighten my legs What can i do?

@@ggbb5621 have you watch some tutorials ? Improve hamstring flexibility.

@@ggbb5621 watch Fitness FAQs video on L-Sit .

@@ggbb5621 Romanian Deadlifts. But do them the way he does these exercises - slow, controlled, and with just enough weight to build some strength but also pull you lower. Once you get good at those, switch to Single Leg Romanian Dead Lifts. You're welcome.

Everyone knows what he means

He said very little stretching Lil bro

He literally said "very little" stretching lol.

​@BuddyTheElite "Twice a week for over a year". Get good Lil bro

​@@anthonybalista7421 he literally did the opposite

u know it!

Mmhm......😅🙈🤤

nice man you got it

Which martial art

I liked to do playful lifting excercises with the kids when I stayed at home, like front squat, kettlebell swing holding at kids armpits and when they got bigger even deadlift/snatch (kid stays straight, lift from ground up to snatch position but w both arms straight and forward). Fun for both and good training!

Squat deeper. Problem solved

@@pyramidion5911 That’s good advice, but only one facet of the game. Remember, muscles are sympathetic.

​@michaelg7904 what does that mean? ❤

@@carmen3091 Muscles work in a push-pull sort of way.

​@@pyramidion5911squatting deep does not give hamstring flexibility

Does your entire lumbar spine not bend? What happens if you try to bend it?

@@leandrog2785 It doesn't. Try to bend your arm bone in the middle. Not your wrist, not your elbow. Bend it in the middle. It doesn't bend unless you break it because it's solid bone. My lumbar spine is solid bone and titanium rods and screws.

Straight leg deadlift and RDL sound like the same thing to me, is there a difference?

@@proverbalizer yeah there's a huge difference. That's why they're called different things.

@@averageoutdoorsman9342 well, if I was the person who named the RDL I probably would have named it straight leg dead lift
