How do I seriously train my flexibility? Everything I look up is just women doing women things and not actually doing any work.
>>77336800Imagine being too stupid to train flexibility. Let me guess. You dont feel your targeted muscles when lifting somehow.
>>77336800Deeper rom lifting with a controlled enough rep tempo to not rubberband off tendons.
as a man you don'tit's the woman's duty to be flexible when you're manhandling her body
>>77336821i want my husband to be able to fold me in half while he rails me is the thing
>>77336822sorry sweetie but im already married
>>77336800You just do what they're doing as far as you can. For example, if you can't bend all the way over to touch your toes then you go as far as you can and get the deepest stretch possible and if you do it every day then eventually you will be able to
>>77336821What if I want the woman to do me in amazon?
>>77336822>being such a loser you can't do what your gender is supposed to be good at by defaulft
>>77336800Yoga or just do basic movements of arms across chest and as far behind back as possible, touch hands to ground with least amount of knee bending, bend at hips as far as can all directions, neck bridges where you are on feet bent backwards with top of head to ground moving in circular motion, feet and hands plant foot to ground and do circular motions and for hands circular motions as well.

You just stretch as far as you can, and hold. You will be able to go a bit further, do that too and hold again. Most importantly, do not stretch too much in a single sitting. Also do not stretch in a steam room, it will 2x your flexibility but you'll end up fucked for two months.
>>77339771TIL. from research or experience anon? (stretching in a steam room)
>>77339777I stretch in sauna in front of gym bros
>>77339777Unfortunately from experience, arms recovered in about 2 weeks, but core was a bitch, especially psoas
>>77336800PNF stretching, but do like 10 reps where you PNF really hard for 10 seconds to push past your normal ROM, then back to a completely non-stretched state for 20 seconds, then stretch again. t. youtube video I watched. It does mog conventional stretching pretty hard though
Are there any just general flexibility routines? I just want to stop feeling so stiff, mostly.
>>77339804Just do dead hangs
Flexibility is just strength in stretched position. Sometimes it's also a nerve issue. Notice those body builders could fold themselves in half (the forbidden hamstring pose) because they were strong in that position
>>77336800You can't touch your toes? What have you been doing laying around doing nothing silly? Here let me help you, no need to rush it. Just spend 5-10 minutes a day and it will come with time ha ha. Much more than that and it just doesn't much sense now does it you silly goose?
>>77336800Cossack squats are great for opening up the hips. I've seen men claim that they unlocked the split by doing cossack squats regularly. As with everything, you need to train consistently and with high intensity (this latter part is where gymfoids often fail).

If you're doing actual stretching you need to hold for about 3 minutes. It's better if you can learn to do these static stretches without tensing up or forcing it anywhere, so try and be gentle and let your body relax into it. Make sure you can continue breathing well the whole time. You should do strength training as well, especially with greater ROM and more time under tension. Most of this stiffnesss and lack of flexibility is your nervous system protecting you because you're too weak in those ranges, so getting stronger in those positions should help you get more access to those ranges over time. It should also help if you get stronger in the weaker muscles the positions where you are compensating, especially in movements more similar to whatever you want to get more flexible in, e.g. RDL's for hamstrings.Pilates is also a good option. Stay away from yoga.
The best way to increase functional range of motion is to train how the Shaolin monks do. Just search "basic Shaolin exercises" on yt. You also need to learn the difference between active stretching and passive stretching, then incorporate both into your training.
>>77336804hehe that couldnt be me hahah
>>77336800Current meta is 30 seconds sets for 4 minutes weekly. This equals 9 months for complete modulation of the tissue you're wanting to mobilize.More than 4 minutes weekly == sub 9 months (but greater risk of injury).Less than 4 minutes weekly == greater 9 months (less risk of injury).This isn't a debate either, this is actually how long it takes. Tissue mobilization works by stretching, adding proline molecules which increase elasticity, but greatly decrease a tendons strength.As the tendon heals it adds glycine which stabilizes the tendon.As the tendon is stretched in a healthy manner it activates the stem cells and proline is changed to hydroxyproline which is both elastic and strong.The individual strands of the tendon mass will add, remove, modify itself over and over again until you no longer activate the stem cell. At which point it modulates itself in the final few months to the stabilized point.The real debate is the 30 second per set stretch.Some people shill longer stretches, but all data shows no difference in holding longer stretches. Time Under Tension is the only thing that matters in the weekly cycle by which rehabilitation is measured.If you stretch for 8 minutes weekly, in various 30 second sets. You will show more benefit due to lower risk factor than say someone who does a single 6 minute set.
