    I'm 71---it was back in 67' that I became interested in Gung Fu. I've
    always enjoyed the hand and arm techniques of Wing Chun. But
    having quick feet was always especially enjoyable. My legs are
    still very fast, despite my age. These stretches are great---painful,
    but great! Of course I take them slowly. But I have never stopped
    stretching since the late 60's, so these stretches weren't TOO un-
    comfortable.
    Thanx, guys.

    Very informative! I wonder if these stretches might also help with my running, or rather, racewalking. I don't need to kick higher, but I bet that my hip capsules would benefit from being less tight. I'm going to turn 58 in September and have learned that I should keep myself flexible, but not to do too much until I am used to the move, or the dreaded DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness) will get me the next day.

  • @Dumphy100
    @Dumphy100 3 года назад

    This is great, thank you Bob and Brad. When identifying how your 'body is made' I find it hard to know if i can actually go any further over time. For example, when i hug my knees to chest, when knees are together there is a space between them and my chest and ever so slight discomfort in the hip joints when at maximum hip flexion. But if i part the knees slightly i can bring them to my armpits easily. I have difficulty getting into firelog and pigeon poses for yoga. When i lie down on my back, legs straight, heels down and abduct the hips one at a time using a strap i feel the same mild to slight discomfort in the abductor region. When stretching hamstrings and flexors I don't feel this type of discomfort at all. I think what I am saying is how to tell if a stretch is just grinding a couple of bones together or here in this insightful video the hip capsule. Could aforementioned discomfort be a stretching of the hip capsule. It should feel pain free as mentioned. So does the hip capsule stretch akin to muscle fibres in that they lengthen and possibly shorten over time if left 'unstretched' or perhaps more like a tendon or ligament stretch? And how do they differ to muscular stretching anyway? I'm a bit lost with the knowledge but do remember i used to kick higher decades ago...

    Thanks for sharing these excersises and tips. I am 50 years old and took up karate again 2 years ago after a 30 year break (doing other types of sport). I try to regain my flexibility and found that my hips are now the limiting factor. Excersises like to ones you show in the video feel really good and seem to help. I have one question though: When doing these excersises (after karate training), I feel extra restricted in my hips 2-3 days after as if I need a relatively long recovery time. How frequent would you recommed doing these excersises? And would it be better to go ligth 4-5 days per week compared to go heavy say 2 times per week?

    Is there a specific name description for that green stretch band other than a loop band?
    Where would the obvious places be to search for one to purchase? Thanks.
    I just started MMA style martial arts training at 61.6 years of age but I have 25 years of ice hockey training & competition at them goaltender position and quite a few years in weightlifting gyms with daily cardio so I'm mentally conditioned and in pretty good shape.
    Looking forward to being able to perform full leg splits again. Its been years
    The 20 year olds at work are very surprised how agile and quick that I am.
    Thanks for the info.

    Thank you! It's a great video! But what can people with hypermobility do, if not these? I've been doing taekwondo for more than 17 years now; I started as a kid. I'm still struggling with side splits and high side and roundhouse kicks because of knee pain, though. I'm hypermobile, but in spite of that, I'm stiff in my hips in some ways and can't and never could do side splits. Stretching and follow-up training always caused me great knee pain and a lot of anxiety because of feelings of instability in my knees. Doing side splits hurts a lot more in my knees than doing front splits. As I'm getting older, I'm experiencing pain in other joints too. What can I do in terms of stretching, while being hypermobile, if I still need to improve the height of my kicks? I've already almost torn my ACL in right knee and my LCL's and MCL's are way too loose. (I'm not doing only taekwondo, I often do other sports and a lot of knee and other joints strengthening exercises to balance the damage taekwondo does.) I've been looking for some good piece of advice for people who still need to stretch in spite of hypermobility for a very long time, but the advice usually is don't stretch.

    Hi, I have tendinitis and I'm 19 years old. I hope that by applying the concepts of videos like these I can get higher kicks. As I can't rause my leg laterally more than 45° without feeling a painful stabbing sensation. It's discouraged me because I'm behind in my class, and I have a competition coming up.
    I really hope this works.
    Any helpful comments will be greatly appreciated.
