It’s one of the worlds biggest misconceptions that flexibility is all about muscle tightness 🤨
Sure, muscle tightness is absolutely a factor that needs addressing but your nervous system is SO influential for the range you have and if you’re looking for flexibility gains, learning more about the nervous system is KEY 🔑
So before you go bending over those hamstrings time after time, be sure to give your sciatic nerve a little love first with some nerve glides. This is just one example of how you can do so.
Give it a test right now and see what instant gains you can make and let me know below! 💭

Holy crap! This actually works!!! You are giving me lots of hope. I thought I would never regain stretch in my hamstrings, when it turns out I'm just fighting nerve pain.
-
This really helps me isolate the feeling of my hamstrings stretching at their knee attachment point, and after doing a round of this my legs feel warm and looser. Will absolutely be adding to my mobility routine!
-
I can't even get over 90° with my legs straight 😅
-
Finally somebody following science! 👏
-
This literally made inches of difference!! Thank you!!!
-

-
OMG THIS WORKED 😮 my hamstrings have been ridiculously tight and I’ve been worried about my other lifts being affected by it (or body hurt from them). THANK YOU!!
-
This is my favorite Yoga/Stretching/Flexibility channel on YT. Best advice, best presentation! 👍

I wish I could save this! Why won't youtube let me save this like regular videos?... Great advice!!

This gave me so much relief from the tight hamstrings I’ve been having these past two days!

Niice update. I followed your nerve glide video recommended at the end of your "the only 3 stretches" video. But will use this now.
-
Liv, many thanks, it's very motivating ❤
-
This stretch and techinique are awesome!!! Thank you so much. I thought I tweaked my knee but after doing this the tightness disappeared, it must have been my hamstring causing the pain and stiffness.
-

Thank you, so timely! I was focused (lost in yoga mind nirvana) in Tuesday’s class and can still feel stretched muscles (Thursday) and I have a strong flow class tonight. I want to look after myself.
