Day 5
Stretch to maintain. Follow the order of the related tutorials to the end, this is 1 set. Perform 3 sets total if you have time. Roll for 15 seconds and holding each stretch for 15 seconds using passive stretching. You can pause the videos while foam rolling so you don’t miss anything.
Begin with the warm up using the Lower body routine

Completed day 5 , can I do beginner lessons on my day off from 30 day flexi ?
If that day off says to rest than rest.
Ok , I feel like I am now healing nicely am I best to just completed the 30 day flexi first and do nothing else until this is completed ??
I always feel a pain/tightness in my abductors when I first go into sitting V. Should I be stretching them more?
Sounds like you just need to start with less of an open position, don’t force it and you’ll start to see your body relax into it more than if you start off pushing. 😊
Thanks for pointing out that anyone any age can improve. I’m 31 and feeling like I’ve lost the opportunity to become flexy. I’ve made huge progress but I’m at that point where I’m kinda stuck. If my strength progress is any indication I’ll probably be stuck for about 2-3 months and suddenly see huge progress. I just need to keep trying!
3 sets of each seems like a lot, it took me a full hour to do 1 set of each of these lol
You don’t have to do the full 15 seconds, that’s more of a max! Also I don’t think most people actually time it 🙂
Hi! I’m having a bit of trouble with the Lying Outer Thigh Stretch. I find that my hip starts lifting before I ever feel a stretch, and I feel a “pinching†or “locking†sensation in my hip flexor/groin as I go into the stretch. I tried shifting the position of my leg (angling slightly more towards my toes or my head) but I’m still really having trouble with this one. Any advice you can give me, or should I just find a different stretch for the outer thigh that works better for me? Thanks!
Sounds like your hips are just a bit too tight for that option. Feel free to skip that one.
Done with Day 5!
Should we also be repeating the lower body routine 3 times?
Noooo. Anytime there’s a routine its always one time. I less I tell you otherwise ðŸ˜
lol good, because I didn|t do it ðŸ˜
“Any one of any age can improve, it’s never to late” Love these words! Thank you!! So important and encouraging to hear especially in a society that is ok with ageism.
