This is the single greatest 15 minutes of exercise I have ever done. When I stared doing this a few months ago I was 6 inches from my toes, my whole life never been able to touch the toes, now 3 months on I’m at least 6 inches past the toes. Reaping the overall benefits of hamstring flexibility. Winning.

I knew my hamstrings were tight. This showed me just how much.

first of all i would like to apologize for swearing at you when you said we're doing another round of that

[Becky-llvl]

Tom, Becky in the US here. I appreciate your follow-along videos. They are really the only ones I can use. I am 79 yo and have lost some flexibility so I am excited to do your flexibility workouts with you, so I can keep moving and get stronger.

I would like to see a video on posture improvement. Thanks for your videos.

[WhiteRose]

Breathe and suffer a little.... 🤣 I’m so glad I’ve just found your videos ! So nice to be able to find another Brit who isn’t over enthusiastic and just calm 🤗

Tom: My heart rates gone up a little bit

Me: *Drenched in sweat*

Your routines have been a regular part of my workouts for years now. You produce some of the best, most approachable, and effective flexibility videos I’ve found.

Tom, it's a thanks and a suggestion. Thanks for the follow-alongs. Been doing your 20 minute stretch routine daily for several weeks and I'm seeing the progress. Very happy about it, also with the fact that you're helping me with building my discipline. I'd like to ask if you ever thought of doing "theory" vids about your follow-alongs, or as an alternative including several details into the videos. E.g. why you have decided to include this exercise ("it works with these muscles (show them on the body) and also how to do them correctly, how we can do them incorrectly, etc. If I know what muscles should "hurt" during an exercise, and they don't, or other muscles hurt, ill understand that I'm not doing it properly.

I didn't understand what 90/90 is for and how to do it properly - had to check other channels to get some details.

The more one is aware of how and why this needs to be done, the more progress and the more consistency there is in a routine. Thanks, hope you reed it. Have a good life!

Dude I couldn’t even touch my toes before starting this stretch. This had me sweating like hell. I never knew stretching could be so tense, and I’ve always had tight hamstrings/lower back. I’ve never stretched seriously up until this point, but I started getting sick of the pain. Thanks Tom, this is really going to help me out

I've been following you for about a month and can tell the difference your follow alongside are making in my health.
You are using your gifts for helping others.Thank you so much!!

As a CrossFitter that I am I want to thank you alot. I never saw the importance of stretching for more than 5 min but I've been seeing alot of progress in my body in so many movement that we do. Love your stuff man!! Keep it up! Will share with others your YouTube channel!!

[truebadur]

One week of doing this and i removed one book from the tower i had to build for the pressing exercise. Feels great to see results!

[dwyang]

I never give comments on workouts videos, this one really makes difference to my hamstrings flexibility, can’t thank you more! Tom, thank you and wish you all the best!

Your follow along is super impressive... I have very tight hamstrings that my normal reach is only down to my mid shins. By doing your follow along hamstring flexibility I am able to touch the floor at the end of the session. This is going to be my go-to hamstring stretches from now on.

For those with very tight hamstrings, hamstring flexibility is important if you experience low back pain due to hamstring tightness. Just be careful as you can pull a muscle if you push it too much. Be mindful of resting in back extension as shown in the video. It's very helpful and protective of your back. Kudos Tom!

This is hands-down the single best video for helping me out with leg tightness and discomfort caused by Restless Leg Syndrome and Periodic Leg Movement. I simply add a few stretches for the soleus and fibularis muscles and it's helped my sleep quality immensely. An actual lifesaver!

[kathrynclippard]

My bf has never been able to touch the floor or even get close, but after several weeks of following along with your videos he can touch his knuckles to the floor! I'm leaving a comment on his behalf, I'm so happy for him.

I've been doing this 2nd day in a row and I started from literally zero, my flexibility was just non-existent but today when I sat down after doing this routine my legs felt so well stretched and I felt so amazing and proud of myself I almost cried lol Well that means it works, so thank you for your work! I will keep following this routine and I'm very excited to see more progress :D

[sneakyfoz]

Have now been doing this a couple times a week for last 6 months or so. Started with very below average hamstring flexibility, probably fingers 6” from my toes sweating bullets and in pain, now I’m palms to the floor standing on yoga blocks and doing it without raising a sweat. Moral of the story is consistency, stick with it and your hamstring flexibility will go through the roof.

This pressing into the ground hamstring stretch has been a breakthrough for me! Thanks so much for the follow-alongs. I do this hamstring followed by middle splits twice a week, plus the runners follow-along after my 2 weekly runs. Seeing the most mobility progress I ever have 🙏
