30 Days To Flexy: Day 4
Duration: 00:04:35
Today is a full rest day, but I thought it would be a nice addition to share my flexibility “hacks” with you. Spoiler: you don’t have to be capable of performing a full split to make your audience assume you actually are! This is great knowledge and a secret weapon for impressive photo shoots.
Great one! For some reason I cant get much range of motion in my sitting V. No matter how much i work this area I feel very stiff and cant seem to tilt my hips. Any suggestions. Will it ever improve?
Have you tried closing your V even more? Often if you’ve never worked on tilting it will seem impossible, because it’s such a new movement. You can also stand and work on tilting 😊
I guess I’m going slow enough when my cats decide they have time to curl up underneath me and snooze as I’m going from the ground up and back down again? …
For which stretch?
The Flowmotion Lunge mainly, but to be fair it’s either that or them chasing me round the pole so nothing new 😊😂😂
Go as far as your mobility allows 💜 lol ðŸ±ðŸ±
Or before you get a set of cat claws in your knee … 😻😻😻
Hmmm… I find it very difficult to keep my (upper/middle!) back straight in this and the v-sit stretch as well 🙁 is it lack of strength or flexibility or both?
It does require both to hold the torso correctly. Don’t worry about how far you can go in V sit it’s about proper positioning. You’ll get there in time!
I really enjoy this stretching series. Feels really good on my sore muscles from my first go at your lesson on conditioning for elbow and head stands yesterday.
Moving along great with these! I still include my normal cardio (15 minutes on the Bowflex) and my pole dancing practice on certain days and not on rest days. My body feels great after starting this series. 🙂
That’s awesome! Keep it up!
Ok. This series is changing my life! I’ve been a climber and snowboarder for years but I’ve never paid much attention to my toes or my pelvis; they were just means to an end. Now, I can’t wait to get back on rock, snow and ice because I’ll be paying much more attention to where my body is in space. 💕💕💕
Let me know if it helps!
