[hairytoothgaming]

This has really helped out my exercise routine. Thanks!

[paypayflores]

Thank you for this video! No longer do I get sore after running like I used to. Thanks a lot!

can i use these stretches for basketball ?

[StretchingInstitute]

Yes, you can use them for basketball. We also have another routine specifically for basketball. YouTube won't allow me to put the link to it here, but if you go to our channel page by clicking on the "StretchingInstitute" link above and scrolling through our videos you'll find it there. It's called...

Basketball Stretches, Basketball Stretching Routine, Flexibility Program for Basketball Players

@StretchingInstitute Thank you for your speedy response.

[commercialmats]

This is very helpful because it quickly goes through the stretches so you can remember them. Also I agree I like that they don't talk. These are not hard to figure out.

[mwolvert]

Thank you for this video! I like the fact that your models don't talk - much more peaceful! :)

[vnillabeen]

Sometimes my legs have muscular pain after I run a lot, but now I know how to stretch before running or jogging, so I'll be fine. Thank you so much, it was really helpful and easy to follow.

[picklelime1]

Just did it and loved it awesome

[yamkehoe]

Oh please... why can you teach us how to do it not on the floor. And less time

[yogalyla]

i always warm up like this before any exercise, cool!

[creativejimi]

if your goin to sprint, i learned you must not stretch your muscles for 10 seconds. is that true??

[StretchingInstitute]

The theory is that you shouldn't do static stretching immediately before power based activities like sprinting and jumping. Static stretching is where you get into the stretching position and then hold that position, without moving, for 20, 30 or more seconds. On the other hand, dynamic stretching is more appropriate for warming up and preparing for sprinting, etc. There's more information on warming up and stretching at The Stretching Institute website; just do a search for warm up.

Sorry, but I'm not sure where the music came from. It was royalty free music that the producer chose for the DVD.

[elmoinparis]

Can anyone tell what the music to this video is?

[Titoboy85]

awesome I do this before i hike and run

[crazyolme]

Thank You, the vid was very helpful

[Christiie85]

I just started running and tried out a few stretches on youtube, since I had no clue which to do. This is by the far the best video out there! I have NO soar muscles after I do these stretches (unlike with some of the others I have tried)!  I use it every time now, before and after running!

[pleasebeafreename]

Great stretches, I use this after every run

[AnastasiafyMe]

thank you very muchh.

[cccroft]

I enjoy this set of stretches, nice to change your routine.

[benzene5]

These are great! Very helpful for me.

[ARCHETECTONIC]

Thank you...should you stretch before or after running?

[FredGolden]

You should do both. The first time to warm up her muscles and get good circulation.  The second is to prevent painful acid build up in the muscles after.

[latinac]

both :)

[kamalov79]

I say after...you shouldn't stretch cold muscles ..you should at least warm up with some running at an easy pace for 10 min

[Runaholism]

@kamalov79 You're absolutely right! Stretching should be performed when the body is warmed up. :)
