@7Annika2011 I should have done that, yes :)

[skittleszy]

Hey I just did it :) I'm quite flexible so it took an hour lol.

Btw you should check out eddie bravo's video on flexibility and work ethic. He's a jijitsu black belt and does the lotus sit handstand.

I'm 11 year old girl and I'm biggish and not skinnie well, but any way I done this in 1min and I had never done it in my life

[jlvi13]

@tillybooxxxx That's possible. Although you already gave reasons why you could do it this fast. You're 11 year old and you are a girl. Guys are not this flexible to start with and the younger you are, the easier flexibility can be achieved. Nevertheless, it's great that you can do it, so well done!

Subscribed, I was looking for some body exercises for martial arts and ended up on your channel, great videos, keep up the good work!

[jlvi13]

Hey,can you talk while exercisising,atlest onece,instead of narrating??

[jlvi13]

@damivoietube Not with this camera. It has a bad sound quality, which is why I narrate. Besides that I often say the words 'eh' and stuff like that and miss-pronounce, so I prefer to narrate as I can cut out the mistakes. Besides that, this takes less time, so otherwise my videos would be too long.

Hi, I am 15 years old and I started practicing, I have trained for three months and the biggest part of the upper body, but then 1 week ago I broke my arm and I stopped exercising, how to prevent the weakening of the muscles, or he will remain in your state next 2 months? plss response,, gretings from Croatia

[jlvi13]

@Borba231 Take time to recover and eat proper food and enough calories. I couldn't work out my upper body for the last 2 weeks and I just did some backpack squats (so with weights in the backpack) as well as lunges and abdominal exercises, hyperextensions and calf raises. That way I still did some workouts. Make it a 3 days a week schedule and you can still do some workout that way.

[Borba231]

@jlvi13 thanks a lot, I wish you good time

[jlvi13]

@TheHulk7788 Thanks a lot!

Ok so I just tried this and just rolled over as I brought my second leg up. Must keep practising. ;)

Of all the stretches so far, this is easiest for me. I won't even attempt splits.

What's your favorite dutch dish or dish to eat that's traditionally has it's roots in your country?

[jlvi13]

@MikesMethods You're askimg me or you mean that as a comment question for next week?

A typical Dutch dish, hm, difficult as I usually just prefer rice and pasta. We often eat potatoes here. I would say stew from kale.

[MikesMethods]

@jlvi13 Just rice or pasta? You don't ever get cravings to eat something you really enjoy? For me it's a constant battle since I love food so much. After a while of dieting I will literally dream at night of freshly smoked ribs being pulled off a grill. :)

I always enjoy experiencing food from other places that's uniquely different from what I'm used to eating here. Not familiar with Dutch cuisine at all.

[jlvi13]

@MikesMethods No, not just rice and pasta. I meant rice and pasta as starchy products instead of potatoes.

I enjoy food too, but I often care more about nutritional value.
