Any tips for a tight prostate?
massage parlor
What do you mean by that?
My gf helps me with that, using the triple threat method
Not sure if prostate but look up this frog pose or frog stretch. It really stretches my groin area and makes it feel less tight while jerking. Also solved some tightness in the lower position while squatting which is why I was doing it in the first place.
Nah
You cute? I might be able to help
my wiener
>(mine specifically)
Unironically go to a doctor. Its not too late anon

how do you know?

all """""""men""""""" who do yoga are guaranteed sex pest liberals
the point of yoga is meditation i.e. increased focus. flexibility is just a side effect. you incorporate it in your routine much like going to the gym. if you don't you're not doing it right. what i will say is that with increased focus bunch of wild shit has been happening for me - accidental astral projecting, ~~*the light*~~ and people generally just act fricking weird around me (yeah i can see the irony in what i just said).
politics of all kinds are gay and irrelevant.
hip thrusts.
one yoga session is not nearly enough to get the point of it but it should make it clear that it's not as easy as it seems at least.
>feeding bad data to the bot is bad!
no, it is not. frick them.
>one yoga session is not nearly enough to get the point of it but it should make it clear that it's not as easy as it seems at least.
That's what I meant. I've never sweated as much as I have during my first couple of sessions. Some holding poses are brutal.
False I'm a sex pest libertarian
Hello Dasha
How old are you?
Do stretching and posture work before you develop joint problems. It's far easier to prevent injury than it is to heal it. I'm speaking from experience. I have a calcified and slightly immobile shoulder that I've been working diligently for a year and a half to fix. I've made some progress, but my shoulder is still extremely fricked. Being immobile is a special kind of hell that you want to avoid at all costs.
Did you try being taller than 5'7
Malfunctioning demoralization bot. My post is in no way related to height. I genuinely cannot wrap my head around how you connected those dots.
yet you responded to it anyway so its goal was achieved
congratulations, moron, dumber than a fricking malfunctioning script apparently.
You got exposed manlet
called out
>demoralization bots
Ummm wtf is this real?
Look at all the responses to my comment. I didn't even say anything about my height and they're trying to put me down for being a 5'7" "manlet" (even though I'm 6'). Height isn't even remotely relevant to my original post. They're either profoundly moronic or bots going haywire.
it would legitimiately not hard to make a bot like that if you know basic machine learning.
just pointing something out.
Try one (1) yoga session and say that again, moron.
>seem like
moron has moronic take, news at 11
Why didn't your ancestors stretch?
>implying they did not
What makes you think they didn't? Even wild animals stretch.
>Convince me otherwise
Eh, you seem pretty entrenched in your moronic ideal.
I always had trouble squatting, it always made my lower back ache, it never felt "quite right"... Until I started doing this mobility drill.
>Why didn't your ancestors stretch?
Because they didn't sit in chairs for 14 hours a day. moronic point regardless... Why didn't your ancestors use toiletpaper? Why didn't your ancestors use toothpaste and brush their teeth... Have fun dying at 23 I guess?...
I will just stick to normal stretches and not worship some gay hindu demon 'gods' while I do it. Yoga is satanic and it sucks ass aswell unless you only like static mobility
Shiva is Aryan sir.
Post yuorself touching your toes with straight legs.
Helped me with and tendon issues.
Not my fault you’re a massive pussy who doesn’t push himself. People who don’t need yoga/stretching clearly aren’t lifting hard enough
It trains your body for sex
Enjoy inceldom
I would stretch her butthole with my dick, if you know what I mean
Any horse stance bros online? Ive been doing it daily for at least a minute for nearly a week now. Can't get over how much better and released my hips feel from doing these.

Why are white women like this?
99.5% of American women have had a BBC experience, 100% of them have had a canine experience. Get over it white boy.
>this enrages the BBC shill
>lowest response for white men is black women
this is surprising
All the black girls I've ever known have been pretty open to getting some white love
get over yourself you perma virgin browncel
You could resolve this issue by not watching porn
look at that ass she's built for it
I like to stretch my back, legs, hips and feet after working out. It feels good and keeps me limber.
feet? what do you mean by that?
really? how come? to me it only seems to be an extremely tiring isometric hold
When I stretch my feet, I mainly stretch my achilleas and use my hands to stretch and massage the plantar facia (tendons from heel to toe) by pulling my toes back and forth. I actually suffer from plantar fasciitis on right foot, hence primarily why i do it. But I enjoy stretching both my feet because it ensures their flexibility and function.
Flexibility is actually wholly underrated. You don't do it to bend like Dhalsim, you do it to protect your body and maximize performance by reduced joint and ligament damage so that you can STAY in the gym.

>posture work seem like a waste of time peddled by people
If youre a dyel "bodybuilder" stretching is a meme
If you actually need to use your body for athletics mobility is just as important as the reps you put in
Correct
All the people that tell you stretching is worthless here are a great reminder how completely unathletic your average "bodybuilder" is
Doesn't do cardio, totally inflexible, not actually strong, just doing whatever they can to fraud that they're in shape
>doing whatever they can to fraud that they're in shape
Trips of truth.
I had this opinion, then I ended up with chronic back pain. It took me nearly two years of physio and doctor visits before I realized I needed to actually learn how to stretch properly. Now I do a 10 minute routine before I go to bed and I have 0 back pain. All I do is a 5 minute deep squat and toe touches for 5 minutes. If you're reading this don't be a fricking moron like me and neglect your stretching. 10 minutes a day could save you from years of chronic back pain. I look back on those two years and think about how much of my life I wasted because "stretching is a meme".

Back pain sucks. Currently also trying to figure out some routine that works for me. Maybe I'll give those a try.
>I do it once a week. I just stick on a youtube yoga channel and do it in the AM on the weekends.
Any particular recommendations?
He recommends gay homosexual yoga
>gay homosexual yoga
Luckily, I already got some kids to prove my heterosexuality, so I guess I don't need to prove anything on a gay rimming forum, but thanks for the warning.
Lifted and ran for years. Was fit, but always felt kinda not really functional or something.
Tried a pretty intense yoga once. Despite years of lifting, I felt incredible afterwards, DOMs where I didn't know I could feel DOMs. My back stopped hurting, my shoulders stopped hurting, I felt like my hips were wrapped in tight rubberbands and they were just now loosening a bit. There was also just this super calming positive mood boost, different from the usual feeling I get post strength training.
Yoga has ended up being one of my favorite activities, I do it once a week. I just stick on a youtube yoga channel and do it in the AM on the weekends.
Stretching and mobility work is fine. Yoga is a portal to the Demonic. You are doing poses that are literally prayers to Hindu gods (Demons)
Father Gabriel Amorth (the real Pope's exorcist) wrote about this in his books. It opens people up to the Demonic. Especially the more spiritual namaste type yoga. Soccer mom crunch fitness class yoga is mildly better but it's still bad.
who cares about fictional characters
>yoga is a portal to the demonic
this is what chris*ians actually believe lmao
Frick yeah.
what if I do yoga poses while praying to christ?
Stretchin' for Jesus!
Like Paramahansa Yogananda 🙂
Most yoga poses were borrowed from Western gymnastics just 100 years ago. It's not that the movements themselves are demonic, it is that doing them within the context of yoga is inherently connecting you to the spritual. If you make the sign of the cross and kneel down before an icon, you are engaging in an act of devotion, even if you are an atheist who is simply doing it because of some alleged mental benefit. It works the same for yoga. The poses are meant to be invokations of various Hindu deities, and they will function this way whether you like it or not. Again, if you do the movements in another context, for instance in Pilates or within a stretching routine, they're perfectly fine. What matters is the intentionality of whether you're doing "yoga".
Selfcontradictory moron
The pope is evil and assisting in genociding europe. He wants you to die. Or at least breed yourself out by becoming a homosexual or troony.
A lot of shills peddle a lot of useless shit. Be it for yoga, stretching, dieting, lifting, politics, you can always find someone shilling really terrible, useless garbage.
Generally, stretching is very good. You may be surprised to find out a lot of elite athletes stretch. It doesn't even have to be yoga. Yoga practice just encourages mindfulness and breathing practice with the stretching, and some awkward as hell poses. Posture work can also be beneficial if you're posture is fricked, because bad posture can cause pain.
I do yoga once to twice a week, and a general short stretching routine daily. Mobility is good for you, and really doesn't have to take a long time. You don't have to be able to put your legs over your head, or suck your own wiener, but stretching and mobility work will absolutely help improve recovery and prevent injury.
It's also used by antitryhard leftists who hate quantifying anything because that suggest some people are better at it than others and differences make leftists angsty.
If you say you DLed 330 or ran a 5 miles in 30 minutes they get pissed because Hitler used math to support his superiority
Only women should stretch, real man are hard and rigid. Like a rock, or steel.
I'm supple, and if I didn't do yoga I would be brittle.
Idk man. I don't really smoke or eat edibles anymore but the occasional time I do my body just wants to fricking STRETCCHHH and oh my god it's a fricking orgasmic experience. I start massaging my insertions and tendons, Jesus fricking christ it hurts so good. Just thinking about it makes me want to go buy an edible for this weekend, I just really dislike how sluggish and mentally slow I feel after consuming cannabis, it's why I stopped.

It makes you more mobile and feel better. Plus if you’re doing any sports you need range of motion
>Convince me otherwise
I can nearly do a split after doing yoga every day for 6 months, while I could barely bend halfway to the floor in the beginning.
no, i fixed my lower back with stretches, was in pain for years and now im not
Yin stretches are the GOAT. Especially the pigeon variants when they hit the glutes and psoas just right. In the beginning it almost had an orgasmic feeling to it when I completely let go.
I wouldn't call yoga worthless for the average person because it is better than getting zero physical activity at all. Intermediate yoga can be quite strenuous for the unathletic. Stretching and posture? oh yeah absolutely generally worthless.
What is baby's first stretching routine that covers most of the bases for full body lifting routines? I would like to start incorporating stretches, but feel overwhelmed with all the content /routines I see online.
Do a warm up routine, not a stretch routine.
touch your toes, hold deep air squat, and then do a child's pose for you back.
Surya namaskara aka sun salutation is the absolute standard stretching routine. It stretches the full body in about 2 minutes. You can do it multiple times. Bonus points for actually doing it in the sun
>Surya namaskara aka sun salutation is the absolute standard stretching routine.
>For this reason, I recommend , the Sun Salutation.
As a Chad Sonnenrad enjoyer, I gotta try this!
Get in tune with your Aryan blood, anon
Your ancestors smile upon you
i do yoga 5 times a week and love it, both because i wanted to unfrick my back and to exercise muscles i wouldn't normally be able to target
Yep. Aint no way Im gonna learn yoga with this content on screen.
Enjoy being a cripple at 50 then. Maybe even sooner.
sauce?
I always see people say they just watch YouTube yoga but is it just whatever yoga video looks good or is there a specific progression? Would love to get into it but I feel dumb just doing random yoga stuff without any kind of structure.
The thing with yoga is that you can do it every day because there's nothing you need to recover from, and you can do it for as long as you want as well. So it's about developing the willingness to make a long term commitment. For that, you need something which:
>takes almost no time at all
>stretches the whole body
>feels good
>teaches you the principles of yoga
>makes you feel like you're engaging with a millennia old tradition
For this reason, I recommend
, the Sun Salutation. It is compact, and when you breathe correctly with each movement, over time the nature and essence of yoga reveals itself. This is to say, the mind-muscle connection improves because you see how the breath is seamlessly integrated with the whole workings of body and mind. The tangible benefit of this is that you develop a certain added rhythm to your workouts which is more effective at coordinating your lifts.
I hope that makes sense. Personally, I only do about 5-10 minutes of yoga a day, but I do it every day and I can't remember the last time I failed to practise. This is much more important than intensity or flexibility when it comes to developing the kind of mastery I'm talking about.
You could go to yoga classes for a couple weeks and copy the structure from there (and have someone check your form if you wanted)
Though its almost always breathing/focus warm up > sun salutation > whatever poses > rest to cool down. And like with lifts you warm up first, so do a pose for a short bit couple times, then do it for longer and hold it.
>remain as unflexible as possible
>rely solely on tendon tension at the bottom of squat, don’t even use muscle until upper 2/3
nothin personnel, kid
>women try to make content about anything without showing their ass front and center (impossible challenge)
I'm 33 and stretching makes general mobility so much easier, not to mention increasing ROM on squats and deads
Most effective thing I ever did for tight hamstrings and posterior chain was using a standing desk and basically never sitting while working.
As if standing 8 hours straight od any better tham sitting, hams arę very powerfull, lock quad in stretched leg and do them one at a time Simply by bendig to max, then stretch by locking quad again because IT certainly relaxed when u bent
Like with a ton of these unregulated things without any kind of authority or real standards, it attracts a lot of charletans. But genuine yoga works and helps you stay flexible. It's not the only way to accomplish that, but it does work.
Flexibility is important
Can pranayama make you live longer?
Yes. In particular, in conjuction with high intensity weightlifting. It will both lengthen the subjective experience of the length of a day and also lengthen how many days you have overall.
Stretching tires muscles, it's quite close to regular workout if u do IT right, everyone should at least constantly work on loosing pecs lats and hams - sin qua non for me, u would do IT too if u understood slightest bit about anatomy
