I just did mine just now let's see how far I can do for couple a months

I've been doing this everyday for two weeks and I have two things to say: 1. This stretching routine feels absolutely AMAZING. I do this before going to bed and it's the best thing ever, my body is so relaxed, it's great. 2. I'm seeing HUGE improvements in my flexibility. I've always been pretty flexible but I've never got to that point, even when I took dance class as a kid. Thank you so much for this video, it's a great routine and even though I'm no figure skater I'll keep doing it for a long time!!!

I want to start taking figure skating lessons starting next year october (im 17 and sadly i cant afford it before then) and I've decided to at least get my body in some kind of shape until then. I've been following this for 2 weeks everyday, and this routine has done wonders for my flexibility. I've progressed a lot in my splits even though i do not stretch specifically for them!! This is an amazing routine and I'm really thankful for this.

I can’t believe I managed to do this whole video! It felt like it went by so fast! Usually I feel like I can’t follow and i tire easily, but this time i did it!! Thank you so much for this!

Finally a stretching routine I want to follow! Thanks a lot (I wanted to learn ice skating but never knew how to start and I guess stretching my stiff body won't hurt)

only been doing this for a few days but I’m already able to go deeper into my stretches, thank you so much!! this is now a part of my daily off ice rutine

Thank you for all the off ice content please keep posting! Great quick stretch

After 3 years I've crushed the ice today. And it felt amazing as always. But my 37 years old body told me afterwards " You're not freakin' 18 anymore " Your exercises completed my day. Thx and best greetings from Iceland 🇮🇸🤘🏽

I don’t even figure skate but I’ve been doing these exercises for 3 months now. I started off so stiff I couldn’t even reach past my knees, now I can almost put my hands on the floor😆 Thank you!

you covered so many great stretches/exersizes this is an awesome video!! thank you

Thank you for the silent timer!💚 The beeps on other channels are so distracting.

i try to stretch daily and i love been looking for a routine to follow, felt great after this!!

i'm an artistic rollerskater and i do this every morning and every night! love it so much! thank you so much!

I really love this stretching routine! I just started learning spirals and this is helping alot with it

Hey! I've been really enjoying your videos, especially the stretching ones, and I always find myself coming back to this one. The modifications and explanations you give are the best! Do you plan to do another one?

Hi! I’ve been trying to progress on figure skating and this video has helped a lot thanks so much!!!

Rlly good stretch. I could only do a split 90 degrees but now I can completely do it after 1 week! Tysm

Thank you so much Miss Mary! The little timer at the bottom feels like it goes so fast, I didn't even realize I made it all the way through the video until it ended.

Thank you so much for the stretch routine, I needed a routine that I would stick too and yours was the best one. My performance on the ice is much better because of the stretches.

I finished my workout and decided to try this out wow I feel so relieved

Guys she got another stretch routine which you can do before this one, both together is amazing!

Dear Mary, I'm so glad I found this tutorial. It ensured me, that I'm doing my stretching right, I do half of those moves as my daily routine and for sure I will add the other half of your trainig to mine as well. I'm doing these exercises for two months now and my almost 40 yrs old body gets better and better. And it has a positive impact on my mood as well 😉 No matter how good or bad we are in skating, to do something for yourself is simply perfect 👍

I'e done this 4 times until now and I am seeing a lot of improvement! A few days ago, I couldn't even touch my toes, now I am soo close to doing the splits!! Tysmmmm❤

I've been doing this every night and I think I've come a long way 😊

thank you so much for such great films!!

This helped me so much ! I feel much better I do this once everyday and I could my legs are getting more stronger and stretched !! 💕😭

Hello💕 everyone so I will hopefully try and remember to log my progress at least weekly maybe daily. Some background info about my flexibility (not flexible 😭) but, I am about 9in off the ground for my Right splits and 10in off the ground for my Left split, can't do middle splits (AT ALL) my spirals are slightly above a 90 degree angle, i can touch my toes with out bending my knees, and when i try to touch my nose to my knees i'm 3 inches away from touching. Btw I also recommend if your rlly trying to get your splits/higher spirals do a couple of stretches added to this (it will help). ANYWAYS here it goes (Good luck!): 💕 WEEK 1, DAY 1 - slightly sore my splits are same height off the ground and overall flexibility is the same, I am trying to stay motivated!💕 WEEK 1, DAY 2 - I'm stiffer. Like a lot stiffer but I know that this is the DOMS(Delayed onset muscle soreness) stage of stretching should be over this in a few days :D WEEK 1, DAY 3 - I actually don't feel so stiff anymore and back to being able to stretch farther down. a lot of the stretches i could go slightly more down and when i went in to splits at the end i definitely saw i went farther down on both legs WEEK 1,DAY 5 - forgot to log this day but i am at about 7.5 inch off the floor on my right leg and on my left leg i am 8.5 inch off the ground actually is going rlly good im feeling more flexible everyday and my spirals are getting a lot better WEEK 2, DAY 2 - i feel and am A LOT MORE FLEXIBLE i still will have to measure how many inches i am off the ground at this point but i'm getting rlly close to my full splits and my spirals are improving A LOT they are not only getting higher but stronger and i am able to hold them for longer and up more I LOVE this stretching routine it's finally something that works rlly well for me and as i count inure to stretch every day i'm feeling happier and happier with my progress 💕

hello! i'm just getting into ice skating (to be more specific, i want to do figure skating but i'm just focusing on learning how to generally skate for now haha). i'm very stiff and it effects my ability to skate properly. i was wondering if i should do these stretches daily? i was also wondering if i should stretch after i'm done skating??

I can touch the ground if I do a soft bend. Should I do that?

Ik im late but my career / dream is to be a figure skater, so i know that i need to be more flexible for it. I can skate and glide well but I cant do any tricks on it as im simply: NOT. FLEXIBLE. ENOUGH. TO. DO. THEM. I also cant lift one foot of the ice 😅. So im gonna do this routine although I am quite late to it :D. Im just using this my melody rug as a carpet. Wish me luck :D

nice video for stretching routine, but too bad the ads kept popping up and i had to keep interrupting the stretch to get rid of the ads. I know monetizing videos are so important, but I wouldn't do it in the middle of the video because it will take too much value away from the fitness activity.
