Day 3: Assess Your Flexibility With This 15-Minute Workout | POPSUGAR FITNESS

Join Class Fitsugar for a special five-day fitness assessment series to test your abilities across: strength, speed, balance, flexibility, and endurance.

You're halfway through the series, so it's time to check in with your flexibility with Train Like a Gymnast founder Danielle Gray, who's joined by class members Ellie Aviles and Paris Nicole. To make the most of it, take note of your comfort level with each stretch!

In this series, our trainers will guide you through workouts designed to help you assess your performance in five key aspects of fitness: strength, speed, balance, flexibility, and endurance. You'll be able to touch base with your body and gain valuable insight into the areas where you're excelling or where you may want to improve. It's not a test or a competition but a tool to better understand where you are in your fitness journey and take pride in your progress!

These episodes are led by fan-favorite POPSUGAR trainers, and with the help of the class members, you'll always have someone to follow — whether you're a beginner, intermediate, or advanced exerciser. If this is your first time watching, we recommend following the beginner variations and working your way up if you need more of a challenge.

Use this five-day fitness assessment to kick-start a consistent workout routine, and after you're done, keep up your momentum with other workouts from POPSUGAR. Then after a few weeks or months, come back to this series to see how far you've come!

Head to The Soft Launch for even more tips for ushering in your happiest era yet.

Love this! Great explanations by the trainer. Moves a little fast but will be coming back to this one regularly!

[BrookeInProgress]

During the video I felt like things were moving a little too quickly and wasn't sure the stretches would be effective, but afterward I felt AMAZING. Should've just trusted the process!

[PunofHarts]

So I am on a 30 day strength training regime and I have been stretching but clearly not enough cos I was in so much pain especially my hips and glutes. I am gonna come back to this 2 times a week. I already feel better after this stretch than any time after my workouts. Thank you so much Danielle. ♥️♥️♥️

[Purplelacy]

Aww, Danielle always doesn’t waste a single minute and has a lot of new interesting moves 💖 Delightful! 💕 Thank you, Danielle, Paris and Ellie! 💓

It's my day 13 doing this and im seeing a lot of progress so far!

[yeaah]

While the aesthetics of the video are very nice, I felt like the routine was all over the place for the first half of the video, unfortunately. It got better after that, with the individual movements flowing more naturally after each other, but I was still missing detailed explanations on how to properly perform each position and what areas to look out for.

[kirazinn]

❤️❤️❤️ so amazing love all the stretches for the body. I feel even more flexible than ever before. I love the move when we were on our stomachs, and reaching one arm back to the leg. It really open my chest and back a lot👍🙂

[TheSupersizzina]

Slightly too fast for me but I loved the moves and I'll come back! Thanks, Danielle and PS ❤

[jonrandhawa]

when you said “this should feel glorious” — you weren’t kidding. 👏 😭 👏 thank you so much!!!

[a.d.]

It's good, I've never felt some of these muscles stretch before! Bookmarking it! Thanks ❤

[mountaincraig]

Apparently I’m at intermediate to advanced which is good. Great cool-down for the end of a workout!

[samdube]

Loved this one and how it was shorter but still effective!

[HB]

Thank you! I’ll add this to my workout

[MyHotDogVids]

[ludmilavavrova]

It was amazing! And I feel great now♥♥

[shoptwoblooms]

Thank you really felt the stretch with some of the moves.

[irenechapman]

I like it very much stretching thank you

[BradyRanger]

I was doing alright until the part where we’re sitting and she says “Now we want to get our belly buttons down to the floor.” I burst out laughing.

[DianaGonzalezGzzP]

I can do most advanced exercises except for: 1:43, 9:01, 10:11, 11:36, 13:04, I honestly though I was gonna be way worse, I'm so happy :D
