How physically flexible are you?

Question

I’ve been stretching more lately and working on strengthening my core because pole dancing really challenges both. It’s one of those things that look much easier until you try it and realize your body has its own opinion… limits… and maybe complaints haha.

How flexible are you?

I can still reach my arms behind my back and clasp my hands together to where my fingers from one hand can reach the palm of my other hand. I can bend over with legs straight and have my palms touch the floor with my feet flat on the ground. I can't do the splits, but I don't train with the correct stretches to improve that either.

I'm flexible as a brick. I've had a lot of women recommend yoga and I'll admit i could benefit from more flexibility in addition to cardio and strength training. I imagine the stretching would feel great too.

Pretty flexible for normal standards. I practice a lot of yoga and pilates and when I was younger I practiced martial arts and rhythmic gymnastics so it's second nature to me to flex with ease.

I try to stretch everyday. Somedays I feel stiff after working out.

Used to be able to do a full lotus. Now, lucky to sit on the floor and get up again.

lightbulb27 · Answer

was once martial arts flexible and could whack someone in the head with a foot and almost splits. Now, if I try that, my pants will split and I'll make a split to the dr to heal my torn muscle.

RavVid · Answer

Pretty much. Somewhat genetic I think. It has it's downside of being able to slouch better than the average.

The movie Blue Thunder 👀 teaches us that only women are as flexlible. Because of not safe for work type limitations to GAG, G@G, here's a mundane poster of it

It's an adult film because there's a few scenes involving them using the helicopter for private purposes lol like a woman doing naked yoga in her apartment windows, oblivious to the helicopter 🚁 film 🎥 scenes
