How Often Should You Stretch?! (Programs + Routines)

INSTAGRAM: @TheBodyweightWarrior

This video covers how often you should stretch in my opinion. Stretching and flexibility work has a use it or lose it approach but too much can have the opposite effect. This video shares a method of stretching frequency to improve your flexibility progress.

I’ve been doing your 15 min beginner program for the last mouth after my runs everyday and it’s seems to be getting rid of a lot of my back pains!!! Thanks for the info 👍

Thanks Tom! I wish I had something more useful to say, but I'm been enjoying your videos and follow alongs for about 2 months now, and I've seen nice improvements in my own flexibility. It's wonderful to see a guy doing flexibility work on the internet, not just all the nonsense bulking stuff that I normally see.

Always good to stretch pre-bed this will allow you to sleep more peacefully as after stretching your body will be less ache. I have been doing this every night for years. I don’t have backache and capable to play more sports and I’m able to do sprinting at age 52.

I've been doing the daily stretching routine (updated version) for about 2 months now and have been feeling amazing for it. I always do it in the morning before work and it is such a nice way to wake up, even if I don't have time to train in the morning I will still make time to fit it in! I am really keen to work on the splits and pancake so going to give your loaded routines a try as mentioned. Thanks again for the videos, very educational and very well made, I appreciate it!

Hi Tom, I’m really enjoying your channel. I’m 58 years old and do your V2 ten minute morning stretch (and that neatly leads on to V1) in the morning before I leave my bedroom and in the evening I enjoy your 20 minute mobility routines which I do just before I get into bed. Missing the gym here in my hometown but enjoying the active stretches you offer. They are excellent and you clearly have a good understanding of how the body is put together. Thank you.

Back then I was really flexible due to martial arts like an almost perfect split

few years after stoping training anything i tried to touch my toes and failed so I worked for many minutes to reach it, eventually I did but the next day shit hurts and still continued to hurt a few days later...
*Now I'm watching stretching tutorial videos lol*

If you are like me at 6'4", these types of stretches are life altering.

[kyleconger]

These fillow along mobility routines are life changing. Thank you, sir.

Awesome, Tom!! Thanks for these videos!! They are helping me a lot. I'm struggling to be consistent in stretching every single day. Your videos keep motivating me. I really appreciate this!!

If you are new to stretching or you want to make stretching a part of your routine I recommend doing fearless motivation 30 day stretch challenge. Also another good stretch challenge is the tumble doctor flexibility challenge . Each video from both challenges are different and throughout the challenge you stretch everything. Also the videos ranges from 5 minutes to 30 minutes approximately but that includes cardio/conditioning.

For me it helped to have a 30 day challenge where each day was different started on June 1st, 2023 and so far I haven’t missed a day of stretching.

[rainynight]

That's an easy answer. Ever day.
And choose a specific day to really push to increase all your overall flexibility.

If you're stretching daily, it's preferable to stretch lightly. But with that, add in Intense stretching 2-3 times a week to see good progress.

You're a awesome human being for helping us out so much. Wish you all the success.

Interesting perspective but in my case I full load stretch around six days per week, I find that foam roller and deep tissue self massage aids recovery really well, i guess it also comes down to each individuals PNF and load tolerance capacity and how well one can recover, however I have picked up some great tips from you so thanks

[timothyblunck]

Wow thanks for all the routines in the Playlist! 🤙

[junovaneynde]

Hey Tom, does this mean doing morning and pre-bed stretches daily with eventually added 1-3 times a week the more demanding stretches, or choosing either of all day by day?
