    This video shares my opinion on using weight lifting to get flexible. Weight training and resistance exercise don't necessarily make you stiff if you apply the correct intent.

    It would be great to have a weight training program focused on gaining strenght whilst gaining range of motion. Including often neglected muscles that also contribute to everyday lige like triceps and forearm flexibility.

      this is a great superset for hip flexor strength and flexibility that I do a lot: kneesovertoesguy style hip flexor lift and hamstring curl for a few sets with as much weight as you can handle with good form then atg split squats. Getting the pump in the hip flexors 1st then doing the atg split squat lets u get in a really deep range of motion for it

    Hi Tom! Thank you very much for your videos. They are so helpful to me. At the beginning i followed them when i didn't had time to go to the gym. Some months ago i went through a surgery and they helped me a lot to recover my legs flexibility. Now, during lockdown time, they help me to keep flexible and in shape. Thank you very much from Rome.

    Wow, this video is all I needed! I've always had a very big problem as a rugby player: lack of flexibility has always been my biggest flaw and I always get injured mostly because of it.
    I've recently started going to the gym, that's why I wanted to know how I could work out my flexibility while doing weight training, so this video was the answer! I had also heard that weight training restricts your flexibility but, after hearing the explanation given at 1:21, I understand that it's about how you perform the exercise, not the exercise itself. The examples of weight exercises modified to add mobility work are awesome, but, could you please show us some back and chest flexibility exercises?
    As I've already said, this video is awesome and very helpful, you've gained a new subscriber.

    ROM: use it or lose it. Involve higher ranges of motion in weight training. Be creative. Like in squate, lunges, shoulder flexion, lat pull over, lat machine pull.

    Hi I love your videos and the explanations. I was wondering if you have any tips for strengthening and stabilizing the hips and pelvis during deadlift. I have a hard time “finding” and keeping the proper neutral position in the lumbar spine. I think due to over mobility in that area.

    Hi Tom, I know in some video you've might have already answered this, but how often do you train Flexibility and same question for mobility, I know you said in one video that you do loaded stretching maybe twice a week? I am just training to suss out my routine is all, so that way I can take your videos and put them in some type of order for myself. Thank you in advance

    I've been smoking a little bit of weed before going to the gym and I end up just stretching the whole time instead of lifting weights. Then I started using weights to get a deeper stretch. Now I'm finally lifting weights just like these exercises. That's how I found these videos.

    Hey! I've been doing some of your routines for a while now and I'm wondering how much time I need to recover. I assume my muscles are healed when they aren't sore anymore, but since that can take about a week for me, I don't get to do the routines as often as recommended (for instance the hamstring stretches for beginners video). What would you recommend doing differently?

    So if I sit for a living, does it make sense to work on hamstring and quad flexibility both or should I favor one more than the other to balance out hip issues? Or maybe abs need to be stronger?
