Best praise vs top criticism for Liforme Yoga Mat
“You look great! A few suggestions: \- going into splits from standing is not really optimal. It looks cool, sure, but since you are still inches from the ground, you might be making things harder for no good reason. First, go into forward lunge or kneeling hamstring stretch - or alternate between the two for couple of repetitions - it will help your hip flexors to prepare for the splits. \- you are doing it on a rough surface in shoes - which is putting a lot of resistance, that is not necessary. Go on a yoga mat, or more slippery surface. \- try to hold the splits for more than 3 seconds. If your full range is too much, go for 80% of it. \- that's a bit counter intuitive, but you might want to put a foam roller under your front leg, going into a little of an oversplit. This will help to square your hips, and might be what you need for those couple of inches. Your for is great, so I assume your stretching routine is sound. Let me know whether any of these tips has helped!”
“You can start with Floor Time. Set up a thick yoga mat or two. Bring blankets and pillows for bolstering. Start with constructive rest if it’s comfortable to do. Stay for about 20 minutes, while doing gentle diaphragmatic breathing. Then, just start to explore movement. Sway your knees from side to side slowly. Lift a shoulder up as you sway from side to side. STAY in pain-free range of motion! You can gradually add in stretches or restorative or yin yoga poses. They are basically like fancy lying down. They will help open your body back up and calm bracing. For a little movement start with somatic exercises. They focus on gentle and small movements, and how it FEELS to do each movement. Don’t do any that hurt, and if you feel pain during a movement, just rest until the next move pops up. Google the “doorway stretch” for opening your shoulders. Don’t stretch too far too fast! Move slowly and while exhaling, LEAN into the stretch, making sure you’re feeling NO pain. This should get you started. A physical therapist would be immensely more helpful than a chiropractor, IMO. I am a clinical massage therapist and corrective exercise specialist. This is my basic routine to keep my body from falling apart on a daily basis.”
