I have a degree in Physical Education/Kinesiology, and I am dumbfounded at how brilliantly you explained this. In my lifetime of being educated and speaking with knowledgeable persons, I have never heard anyone breathe a word of how to deal with tight, inelastic nerves. This would explain why I can effect gains in every muscle of my body except hamstrings! Thank you.

I dk who you are ma'am but I'm forever grateful to you! Tonight I woke up at 2a.m. with extreme nerve pain. I've been tossing and turning for 3½ hrs now. As I lay in bed I did this nerve stretch and INSTANTLY the pain subsided. I've been dealing w this pain for ab 2 years now. Ive done countless stretches, had numerous chiropractic visits, bought bands, foam rollers, chiropractic balls, and a massage gun. And it wasn't until today, in your short 3 min video, I found relief. Literally brought tears to my eyes when I realized I wasn't in excruciating pain! Can't thank you enough!!

I've tried so many times to search for an answer and not once have I learnt about the sciatic nerve. It makes so much sense. I injured my coccyx as a child and have always wondered if it's related.

Any stretches that were supposed to help the hamstring made my calves burn intensely, and my coach said it was normal. She probably thought my hamstrings were tight, but now I understand why this was always impossible for me. I had an eureka moment watching this, I truly never thought I'd find out what my problem was. Now that I've restarted working out and stretching after leaving gymnastics almost 6 months ago, I've encountered the same problem. I will add this to my stretching routine to see if it works for me.
