This position

If I keep leaning back and touch my back on the floor what muscles will I be stretching? Is it a good sign to be able to do it without feeling pain?

also, my ankles hurt when I try it, is it a sign of poor mobility?

Tell me op when In any life situation will you be in that position?

Sliding under a garage door at the last moment

Power sliding

I am trying to become more flexible, thats all

Flexible for what?

just general flexibility. At the beginning of this year I couldnt even reach my toes, now I can. I have always been very stiff, I am trying to fix that.

Ok but how is touching your toes going to make you more aesthetic, or help you lift more?

m8, I can't even do one third of that or my knees explode.

I exercise to be healthy and feel good. I am not an insecure faggot who needs validation from others.

I TOLD YOU TO TRAIN LIKE AN ATHLETE NOT LIKE AN IRONING BOARD, LOOK AT WHAT YOU'RE DOING TO YOUR HIP FLEXORS!

I fail to see how doing a silly strech like this will make you any healthier

Flexibility is a sign of good health. Too many people on this board don’t stretch nearly enough.

How is it a sign of health?

Does stretching help strech telomeres ?

Lmao
Good meme, if you want to waste your time doing silly shit go ahead

Mirin that toe and shin line up
In Muay Thai while blocking with your leg it is required to keep the toes pointing down otherwise they can get hit and broken easily if you're unlucky, it requires a lot of flexibility which almost no one naturally has it, but after training it can be achieved

Kg

I think it stretches your entire anterior chain. Where it hurts during the stretch is the tightest limk in the chain, which is typically knees or ankles

Lol

Trying to look like the letter Z

Stretches your quads and can prevent jumpers knee if you front squat and clean a lot.
