Great stuff. Do you have any videos or resources that can help me with my disc herniation (L4 L5 S1)? I really miss deadlifts and squats. The numbness and pain has reduced now. Please suggest workouts that don’t cause spinal flexion.

Morning: dynamic flexibility Post workout: loaded flexibility like splits, pike, weighted mobility as in jefferson curls Before bed: static flexibility as in yoga

There is nothing better than that loose feeling you get after a good mobility/flexibility session. I do mobility/flexibility work throughout the day. It serves well as a study break, for example.

It's very appealing and realistic to me that your fitness and stretching routines and videos emphasize that not all members are young and athletic as you but doing some variation of your training is always a benefit and no one is judging us! Thanks Tom

Hello Tom! Been seeing your videos for quite some time now, and I have found your 15 minute beginner flexibility routine really helpful! My question is: When during the day is the best to use this? I personally like to stretch before bedtime, and so - do you recommend another routine for this?

I was wondering if you had any advice for people who have different flexibility levels on different sides of their body, for example due to an injury? Specifically for symmetrical movements, where the maximum on one side doesn’t fully engage the other side.
@meirknapp
@meirknapp 5 жыл бұрын
I would say you just spend more time stretching the side that's less flexible, though, if that isn't correct, I would also like to know the answer to this question

Best times of day for me to stretch are when I'm stoned or tripping. The latter substance allows me to open up bound areas in my spinal canal and leads to permanent changes in my mobility. it's just... super freaking intense.

I think Tom would do a variety of stretches. The links to Tom's other videos give quite adequate information. People vary in their flexibility, so you have to personalize according to your body.
