I used to be able to split and straddle when I was in jr. high. People always asked "doesn't it hurt your balls?" Doing splits doesn't put any stress on the groin area. It's mostly in your thigh area. Your balls just sit on the ground.

julian12465 muscle is the power

@Sakaki98 9 лет назад

Anaz Blackie Actually, that's only part of the equation. Muscle is the strength and weight aspect. But speed is the other part, arguably the most important. A car which weighs several hundred times more than a bicycle will hurt less going at 2 mph than said bicycle going at 40 mph. By this logic speed is much higher yield than building muscle mass. Plus, the thing about speed is that it doesn't always require decreased muscle mass to increase, whereas increasing muscle mass will always result in a direct loss of speed, meaning you don't gain as much power- if any at all- from doing so.

@MrPancake777 9 лет назад

+julian12465 i must mention that if the guy earlier meant muscle as in mass producing raw power. Than it cannot be overlooked that the faster an object travels the more mass (muscle/power) it obtains. For example if you were to travel near the speed of light, then you'd literally weight more than a planet, if not much more. But I get what you're saying though. :) .

Good pointers, Shane. I've been doing these in ballet classes for years (though I haven't got my full splits-it's way better than it used to be). Highly recommend all these as well as ballet barre(or floor barre) stretches-there are a bunch on youtube. It all translates into better kicks("battement" in ballet parlance). Cheers!

@butkusfan23 8 лет назад

Thank you for telling people to warm up before we stretch. So many are told from childhood to stretch first, often even ignoring warm ups all together. Muscles can be though of like rubber cords, if you pull on them when they are cold, they are more likely to tear or get injured. Thanks for all your content.

Shane, you're awesome. I am indeed a 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu student and the butterfly stretch is one of our core stretches; it's fantastic to see it becoming more and more popular by the day, especially after Metamoris 3 :). I think that the best kicker I know of is probably Scott Adkins, or Aaron Gassor (known as GingerNinjaTrickster on RU-vid). Great video :).

@josepablocuevascazares3678 8 лет назад

Hey shane, in yoga the stretching at 1:00 we do it by keeping our knees straight and our hips up as much as possible and try to get our elbows and head to the floor between the legs, without going to the front and we try to touch our knees with our head but always keeping the hips back, so the hamstrings and legs in general are getting so much flexible, just a tip, keep it up, great work, greetings from México

@CoDGoldenAge 8 лет назад

@gogglegoggles 7 лет назад

Marcel Müller Hello again. After one month of stretching I'm seeing good results. My straddle is better and I can almost touch my palms to the ground without a bend in the knees.

@CoDGoldenAge 7 лет назад

Glad to hear. I've been at it for about 3 weeks now and I feel like my straddle has improved somewhat too. I believe I haven't been able to do a 90 degree straddle before, now I can get that done pretty easily. I think it will take another 3-4 months to achieve reasonable flexibility and probably close to 10 months or a year to get to Shanes level.

@limitlessjoseph1399 2 года назад

Your are 100% correct that is impossible to perform a middle split or some other complex stretching without activating the muscle fibres meaning implementing some small low intensity stretch. My martial arts is known as karate and I nearly convert a middle split into an asset therefore just require a little more practice. By the way highly appreciated your stretching drills being demonstrated here. 👍👍👍

is taekwondo effective in real street fight ?

@jinojikitomo5065 9 лет назад

ok :)

@yammmy268 9 лет назад

Any styles are effective, but for me without the power of your mind and your brave heart you won't win a fight even though you're good at taekwondo or anything else. That's just my opinion, cause i once got bullied a year ago and i didn't manage to punch/kick him because my heart back then was weak even though i can punch real good.

tsukada yamato You're so damn right (well that pony of your profile is kinda gay, but that's none of my business). If you don't have the will to fight, then you won't get far, no matter how hard you train, it's all a state of mind.

dssblink That's with every sport btw.

JINO JIKITOMO Actually not too much If you need street fightings learn kung fu (For those taekwondo lovers THIS IS JUST AN OPINION don't argue with meh)

Best kicks? Bruce Lee. No contest.

@rira7063 8 лет назад

Bruce lee WAS that best

@interestedparty7523 8 лет назад

For use in practical application, I would say yes, in terms of form, I'd say a heap of professional Tae Kwon Do blackbelts, Tang Soo Doo guys would smoke Lee in terms of proper kicking technique and form. But fighting? Bruce had a good overall philosophy, well-rounded, like an MMA fighter before MMA became popular.

Yes yes thank you for this video. Cant wait to.go home and try this. Been waiting on flexibility training for high kicks.

@UntrusiveThoughts 6 лет назад

I'd forgotten my tae kwon do stretching but this video reminded me of them and I'm definitely happy to get back to stretching since I lost so much of my flexibility ever since stopping for years.

Andy Hug. Best heavyweight kicker I've ever seen. Thrown roundhouses, crescent kicks, spinning heel kicks, and his infamous axe kick. He even axe kicked Cro Cop in K1!!

Hey man I needed this more than you could possibly know. I used to do martial arts and recently i've wanted to get back into it. I'm faster than ever before. Stronger and have more stamina but I just couldn't hit my old form. Realized I didn't remember how to stretch. Preciate you brother
