Wow, I am still at a point where my chest is flat against my need on the first stretch. I have a long way to go.
I struggled with pain around my right knee cap for more than 6 months. After everything run or walk I felt discomfort. After trying these stretches for a week and I don’t have any discomfort. Thanks for the video

I need this so bad. I wish PE classes made it more mandatory to become more flexibile back in the day. I feel like I'd be healthier and happier.

I teach PE to children and do teach stretching but not enough on flexibility, more for warm up/ preperitry. Your comment is making me reconsider

I followed along yesterday and today im feeling better thanks to you so im back again
Peloton should sign you on for mobility classes!! Get them true cred🤩🤩 The points, tips, & explanations you bring are priceless 💎💎
My wife and I are really enjoying your stretching routines. Thanks!
great results for a pelvic tightness..often confused with hip issues. THANK YOU!
Your videos are great man. You always get straight into it and explain as you go which is perfect, instead of spending ten minutes talking.. And these stretches are just what I’ve been needing! Thank you 🙏
Holy damn dude, I only just found your content and followed along with this. Lots to gain still. Thank you for all the free content you give, it’s high quality stuff and I’m delving deeper!!
Stiff squad, assemble. Great vid, many thanks.
I seldom comment on videos, but this is a gift to those who are active and need to pay more attention to flexibility. Thank you
Well now I know I'm too stiff to do any of these properly. You learn something new every day haha

Ok, took a very 1st step to actually try to stretch & Boy-------cannot keep balance and tip totally complete on the floor, & finding out (by my fall) I felt I could be a pile of stiff snap sticks, but I think your stretches will be a miracle to come. Still inspired.
Thank you for this Josh! This is exactly what I needed this morning. I always do the first stretch from my couch; never thought about doing it against the wall. Oh it hurts soooooo good!!!!

A bit more intense on the wall :)
Dude, it hurt so good that I also turned a little Australian to say subscribe with an accent. The title was perfect for this video; it caught my attention. Keep up the good work guys.
That was awesome! Had my comp last weekend and this really help loosen up my hammys and quads 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thanks for this, good to find some long deep stretches
Absolutely love these! My splits have improved with these type of stretching!
Thank you for making such an easy-to-follow tutorial and keeping it positive! The way you talk about Peloton halfway through the video makes me laugh every time. I love those commercials too!
Thanks, Mr. Josh. I only got five minutes in and had to stop myself. I'll revisit this follow along later, indeed this going to be intense.
My right quad is totally locked up when I walk lately from lack of stretching and still working out. I’m going to give this a honest go daily 3 rounds and I’ll see how it goes. Loved the first session so far
Could or believe how much tighter left hamstring is than my right... that needs WORK!
Sweet, chilled, correct and informative - Thank you

Dude, yes! Just woke up, saw this vid and just what I needed. Looking forward to more loaded mobility stuff in future
I love love love your videos. They are extremely helpful.
Omgosh I love you bro these stretches are the best stretches ❤
I love your work bro!
Wow really impressive I have done this exercise for a month and a half and I see great changes.i feel less stiff..more flexible I really feel and look different thank you so much for this workout
Never new how stiff I was until I started following your recommendations. Thank you so much for showing these movement as I am a beginner
Thanks! Great stuff. Ive tried the 90 90s before but never knew to hold these positions.
This came right on time Squats been making me aldente
Such mellow music and atmosphere in your videos. Makes it enjoyable to watch
idk how people do this and say "ah that feels good"
very nice. thank you so much, i feel muscle fibers realigning
Peace and blessings bro. Loved this.. can you do a video speaking to the connection between the hips/quads and the neck and upper body. When I have neck pain, stretches like this tend to relieve the neck pain. Thanks for all you do.
Thank you Josh for a great workout. I get inspired by your videos. Keep them coming.
Comment For My Convenience: 1:23 Is When Stretches Officially Start
This inflexible Cyclist needed this! Thanks 🙏🏻 no where close with knee to wall.
I like this! Thanks for the follow along. I love how the video is so aesthetic and the background music.
This brings pain and happiness at the same time. Phewww, I am really lightened up.
Felt like masochist and i liked it :D That was intense, i was not able to do some exercises in full. But it felt good and gave me goal. Also the way Josh speaks - amazing! It helps relax and also to focus
You are unstoppable
My God, l love to see you do these exercises. I don't want to do them. I just love to see you, hear you, your hair is beautiful. OMG
This was super tough, but I feel amazing. Thanks J
Video start at 1:27
Love watching your exercises 😂 i really need to try them to loosen me up. Great job 👊
Just what I needed bro! Thank you!
That was amazing!!! My body definitely couldn't handle the progressive round LOL. Kept with the guidance from the first round and just relaxed into it! Soo grateful for your energy!! 🙏🏾♡
Thanks!
That is really good to do I need a lot of stretching on my left leg because of my stroke all my muscles on my left side has shrunk a bit because of my stroke I will give it a go thank you

I love your content and love these kinds of videos. Your channel explains things really well and all the viewers appreciate it.😁, keep up the good work mad lad👌
I don't know how many times I went back here since I discovered this video
A real awesome follow along, great job man
5:03 Definitely not for stiff people. Impossible to lock my knee. Or maybe I need a video for Super Hyper Extra Stiff people.

Thanks Josh, happy New Year mate !!!
Omg this was awesome! Intense! Sooo needed Thank you 🙏
I thought I was flexible; then I did this follow-along. Wow. You talk about strength and the ability to delay the body's Oh S==t response, but I found out on the hamstring stretches this helps balance too! The first set was so wobbly; even in 15 min. this helped me improve balance. Thank you.
Strength Side getting that Peloton money now 💪😂
You are a beast. Thank you. Very inspiring and helpful as always.
Mrs. Garrity recommended this!

Thanks so much friend
Oooh, that first one is very nice. I have some work to do there cuz I don't really touch the wall with my back
Thank you so much 💓🙏💓
Thank you!
Thanks so much I finally touched my toes I’ll check in later
felt horrible, but it's worth it. Thank you :)
Haven't seen all your videos but I love the ones I have come across..I had to say your peloton comment made me giggle 🤭
Started probably not able to touch my toes. After videos I could touch the floor no problem. Woah!!
Thanks, Josh! This DEF applies to me ~ LOL ~ ~ ~
Quads, hamstrings, and (bonus) BALANCE!
That first position is no longer "out of the cards" for me 😃
I loved "Nùmero uno" 😍😍
Thank you😌
Great pic for the thumb, bro.
Love it dude 🔥🔥🔥

This guy's so my vibe
Hey, I find it really difficult to touch my toes 😒that says I am really stiff! But I am gonna follow ur stretching and update my comment how I am doing! Found really difficult the knee against the wall and arching the back while taking head down to the knee! I hope I can improve after following this video. Do you recommend to follow these exercise every day before starting weight exercise in the gym?
Thank you bro
Do you have alternatives for someone who doesn't have available wall space? Thx
