Thank you for this video. I always wondered how long to apply the pressure for and I like to use my hands. I never really knew how long it should take.

You're welcome. Glad you liked it.

I think my leg muscles have weakened. I attempt a walk each morning of about 20 minutes. I also am doing 10 reps of sitting and standing, twice a day. What I most want to overcome is the delay in my leg moving to walk such that I seem to hover before I can move. Sometimes I can see this is worse if I am unsure of my footing but also when people allow their dogs to approach me (I've been bitten.) I also find that I hover when I first go out the door to take my walk, as though I have to retrain my legs to move, to make that first movement and then subsequent step movements until I get into a pattern of walking. This may be a reaction to my muscles being knotted as my leg muscles do seem to ache. I don't really want to have to buy any equipment but am willing to try these exercises if by doing them regularly they can regain movement when walking.

@More4Life 5 месяцев назад

These exercises probably won't help with the hesitation. That seems more like a confidence with movement or balance issue than purely a strength or knotted muscle issue. Here are some balance exercises that may help: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KpTiX1aMr9w.html It also could be a sign of a neurological disorder affecting movement such as Parkinson's disease though, so I'd suggest seeing your medical doctor and physiotherapist to get it checked out for sure.

@@More4Life Thank you for the balance exercises. I'll see about adding those as well as the ones to deal with knots to my daily routine. I think the confidence problem isn't neurological but it is something I need to keep tackling.

I have the worst leg knots the pain is unreal

@More4Life 2 месяца назад

Sorry to hear that

@Jus10-born2Run Месяц назад

Get that massage gun. It’s amazing!

@intouch8789 3 месяца назад

Thank you. What if your legs are also tight, should I avoid stretching in that case as well?

@More4Life 3 месяца назад

It depends if what part of your legs are tight. For the hamstrings, often a "tightness" sensation comes from sciatica rather than the muscle itself. Here's a video explaining that further: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--UmFyrgPaNQ.html

@@More4Life Thank you, I hyperextended my leg years back and doctors told me I just have a pain syndrome but I have knots from top to bottom and patellar Tracking disorder. Jogging seems to be great for getting the pain down and helping blood flow but I fall back into the same symptoms quickly if I don't jog or do different muscle release techniques pretty much daily. I will check that link out, thanks for your help. Feel free to shoot me anything else that might point me in the right direction based off my description.
