This exercise will increase your flexibility and mobility. Watch Jesse Enkamp (The Karate Nerd) share a proven stretching way to improve your range of motion for hamstrings, pecs, hip flexors or any other body part. The key is to actively contract the opposing muscle (flexors vs. extensors) in order to facilitate a natural stretch response for functional flexibility.

35 years of martial arts training. I have always been tight in the legs. No one has been able to explain this type of stretching to me or even suggested it. If I had known this way back when I still might be competing. I will definitely give it a try. Thank you sensei.

@lunarious87 3 года назад

@@jameshohmann535 Hi. I watched again to The Middle of the video. There's a Truth in this technique Sensei Jesse talks about. I broke my elbow in a Basketball game once, it got stiff, I recieved appointment hours at The Physioterapeut and he basically told me, and it worked, to; Pull my Biceps Hard as Karate is Hard External, and he as External "Partner" would resist like Sensei Jesse "Knee Experiment". It took a little while but flexibility improved VERY quick.

Jesse, I'm a 61 year old guy who used to be pretty active in the martial arts but haven't stepped into a dojo in nearly 40 years. I have just signed up at a local taekwondo school because I need to exercise and I miss karate. So, to say my joints are stiff is an understatement. I'm trying to unlock everything as fast as I can without hurting myself. These stretches are invaluable for my recovery. I love all your videos, but this one actually improved my life.

@timkittle5418 Год назад

Look at a book by Thomas Kurz, "Stretching Scientifically." I am about your age. I got the book about 27 years ago. I wound up being able to do full splits and kept that to my mid 40s (I stopped working it ).

@MrCageCat 4 года назад

I can vouch for this. Injured my shoulder last year and never treated it, decreasing my range of motion, making lateral lifts very difficult. Starting seeing a physio therapist a while back, and she said I should lift the arm until I can't, then with the other arm grab the wrist and press AGAINST the arm (downwards) lightly and hold for 10 seconds. I found that afterwards I can actually move my arm HIGHER than normal. The result is the last month I have greatly increased my range of motion in my injured shoulder.

@andygillies5624 4 года назад

Osu , I injured mine tearing a shoulder muscle in 2 places..physio gave me a length of rubber tube band ( can use bicycle inner tube) stand on one end of the tube , hold the other end of rubber expansion band in the hand on the same side - clenched palm facing against leg, lift arm straight to comfortable height - hold for 10 x 10 reps. repeat to side 10 reps, then diagonal to front 45 degrees and upward 10 reps , then back 45 degrees and upwards. Finally repeat all sets with thumb side of the holding fist to leg (ie.arm face down) Then all sets again palm up , then verticle fist (tate). Helped me build using core and working against the injured muscle group...the joys of rolling down hill with bike on cycle training :) hope this helps

As an amputee this is life changing! Thank you si much, it's so hard to do certain stretches with one arm and we have so much tightness from overuse which impacts on posture. You're an absolute legend.

@BIZEB 4 года назад

The first example is precisely what my physiologist recommended. The explanation is quite interesting, though. Sounds legit.

@casparbosch5615 4 года назад

@MZH47 4 года назад

That's so interesting! I always wondered how the natural stretching we do when waking up, kinda like cats, differed from the way people do for working out. This feels a lot like what we see animals do, apart from the resistance thing.

@SkyeDCUO01 4 года назад

Another good video. This is something I never thought about. I always tell people that flexibility isn’t as understood by many as it should. It’s actually down to understanding muscle groups and the strength of these individual groups. For instance your quads are made of 4 muscles. If one muscle in this group is weaker then the whole group is actually restricted to that muscle. It’s not as straight forward as just stretching and pushing further than your capabilities. More to work on the individual groups with gentle exercises and adding a little resistance to build them up. As you can see in my pic it works well. I’m 38 now and after 6 years of no exercise and injuries, I can do the splits again. Like any exercise, for good results you have to work on it several times a week and vary the work out. Most importantly is to not push to hard as that will hinder or injure you. My moto is small steps, big results.

@robertforehand7919 4 года назад

My Iaido teacher has been teaching this style of stretching in our dojo for years! I have found it useful, and great to see it so succinctly described.

@odojang 2 года назад

We have been doing this in Taekwon-Do since 1980, when my late master, J.A. Blake, 8th dan ITF, introduced us to this most effective method. One of the fringe benefits of it is joint health. I am 63 years old and after 47 years of martial arts, I have no chronic pain whatsoever anywhere.

@wushunoob3970 4 года назад

@ianmcleod7502 4 года назад

Thank you, with the extent of my injuries i need tremendous amounts of stretching, the best part of the video for me is the fact you keyed in on my worst areas so i have now the ability to try this while watching you. With my brain injury on top of the physical injuries i have lost much of my mobility, traditional stretching has not work the way i had hope and this might be the key to helping me walk easier. I train Goju, so the lost movement part really hurts me a lot, it is hard to get inside of somebody when your body does not want to explode :) Love your work, this has been great for me while i attempt to make Black Belt.

@tomball9473 4 года назад
