I could never touch my toes since I was 7-8 years old. I just touched my toes for the first time after this exercise!!!!!! I had to do it for 10 minutes and I could hold the touch for only 1 second but I did it!! Oh my gosh you’re the best
I was doubtful until I went to test out my own results and I immediately touched my toes??? I've been bothered by a memory of my old coach saying every self respecting athlete should be able to touch their toes, turns out it was easy to learn if you teach it right, thank you!
If you looking for a recent comment ive never been able to touch my toes ever 😂 i did this stretch for 1 min and took 30 second breaks i did it 10 times and was able to touch my toes after the 5th minute
I have question , i never workout before and i don't move my body alot in my daily life , and wanna start working out, so should i start with stretching for a weak before i start exercise or start working out directly
So, how are you? If you hadn't started yet, go for it dude. You should train all types of strength anyways, do bodyweight exercises, with weights, extension and mobility exercises like this one, do cardio, do everything with proper rest, food and planning and you'll become Zeus himself. Or, maybe you're him already, I don't really know.
The entire life I never able to touch the floor and just within 10mins after watching this video, I am able to do it now! This is crazy, blown my mind!😮
I haven’t done it yet but it improved a little but my lower back hurts sooo much, am I doing something wrong? My knees are also killing me and I’m only 11 years old, am I doing something wrong??

Day 1 of this exercise, i hope i can do it within a week EDIT: im actually in shock it's still day 1 and i already managed to touch my toes, i will definitely keep doing this until i can elephant walk
I can do this I can't do the elephant walks just yet properly because I have hamstring tightness I'm very very tight in that area due to a physical disability but this is going to help for sure
I heard that the goal of this stretch is to stretch the hamstring area so you don't need to touch your toes but instead you can stand up and lean backwards and that'll give you the same effect just less dangerous! I'm not a yoga person so I don't really need to touch my toes, but for regular exercise I think the leaning version should do the same trick
Hi Gaetano! You can definitely use a massage gun for this! Try to run the massage gun down the muscles that are being stretched! We are actually working on a video about how to use a massage gun to get a deeper stretch, so stay tuned for that one!!
Hi Jhakku. We noticed that you've commented multiple times about us not replying to people. A quick look at our videos will show that we try to respond to all of the comments that we can! It is important to note that a lot of comments Dr. Lin legally cannot answer without evaluating the patient in person. We are sorry if something happened to you that soured your perception of our commenting frequency, but hopefully you feel better now!
OMG!!! I’ve never been able to touch my toes my entire life and 5 minutes after watching this video I was able to touch my toes for the first time!! Thank you so much!
How many time/reps to do a daily routine? My hamstring are made of steel and I don't see any advantage. But my mobility is very very weak and for 40 years I haven't done anything to improve it
WHHHAAATTTTT!!! I literally have never been able to touch my toes before and after a few minutes of this exercise I TOUCHED MY TOES!!!!! You got a new subscriber just for that. Thank yoooouuuuu!!🎉🎉
