ok, so where have you been all my life? This is gold, seriously. I have been in physical therapy for a year now and my hamstrings have been tight, my right leg has been tight up to my foot/ankle. I started this exercise yesterday and I see a huge difference. My right leg stops cramping up and for example my thigh stopped hurting in child's pose. Brilliant, thank you so much

I usually never comment on videos but this one is too amazing not to! I found this video after searching for an answer to why my legs start tingling when i do hamstring stretches. after having made great stretching progress during my yoga practice I had several months of inactivity. When trying to start stretching again this tingling and numbness started appearing. I did the test shown on the video and sure enough it was the sciatica. I just did the "flossing" and tried my usual hamstring stretch again. Guess what? no tingling 🥹🥹🥹 This was after just one round! Can't wait to see the results after doing this regularly. Thank you so much guys keep up the good work ❤️ subscribed!

Thank you so much I’ve been trying to get more flexible hamstrings for years but they seem to have been only getting worse it hurts so bad to stretch them that it makes me want to cry I couldn’t figure what was wrong with me I knew that hamstring stretching never felt like any other type of stretch cause it was just pain it’s such a relief to know it was cause of a nerve and that it’s fixable without extreme pain Update I did a few reps on both sides and I can sit up straight with my legs in front of me with barely any pain which is a huge Improvement because before watching this doing that would make me cry

crazy how long it took me to figure out it was the nerve that causes the tightness in that area.

The second exercise I can’t even do with my other leg straight so what should I do?

@movementmaintenance

2 ай бұрын

Do only the first exercises if you can do it. Or keep the leg bent, it also works👍

I've tried every "release tight hamstrings" method out there. They all claim to trick your nervous system to allow you to bend more. Nothing has even remotely worked. You are my last hope. I'll start tomorrow.

@movementmaintenance

4 ай бұрын

Let's hope it works. This doesn't trick your nervous system, it just makes your sciatic nerve more mobile. And if your movement restriction is caused by the sciatic nerve, then this helps definitely. But if it is mor of an hamstring muscle issue, then I suggest doing heavy eccentric exercises that go into the stretch.👍

I have had a really tight nerve behind my knee for thirty years after pulling my hamstring that itself had healed. I tried a type of nerve floss exercise for six weeks. The tension behind my knee lessened but the tension in my calf increased causing my plantar fascia to pull. I feel some tension in my buttock aswell and l am doing a stretch exercise just to,take pressure of the plantar fascia.
