Dear Jeff, I'm having trouble with working out my lower body, I think I might be -buttwinking-, not just that but I also struggle placing the barbell on my back when squatting (have to widen my hand placement for it not to hurt as much. I've been told by others that I got good posture so I don't know what to do, also I work as a package handler where squatting is part of what we do which is all the more reason why I want to correct my mobility/flexibility problem. My question to you is what are some easy stretches/drills I should do on the daily for optimal results? Is yoga an effective alternative too?

Jeff, Awesome training info. I have two questions for you:
1)Why is resting no more than 90 seconds between reps important? If I rest for say, 2 minutes, I could do way more, theoretically getting a more thorough teardown)'
2)I use to be in good shape but stopped working out for about 20 years. I used to go by this: If I can't recover in 48 hours, I was over training. Now, in my mid 50s, is that true(was it ever) or do I add another rest day and allow 72 hours?

At first I thought I get what he means. Flexibility is the ability of the muscle to be stretched either with the help or without outer force. Mobility is the ability to actively stretch the muscle without the help of outer force, merely done by the muscle connected to the mentioned part. But then the temperatur thing confuse me, I doubt if I get him right or not-

How is mobility also addressed during your workout during exercises? So your saying that my mobility actually increases during the bench, squat and deadlift? I don't need todo additional dynamic stretches and mobility exercises to work on my mobility? And also static stretching is so boing that's why I don't do it. Any other solution?

Nice video as always, Jeff. But while watching I was wondering if the -myth- is true that stretching weakens your muscles or reduces the muscle growth? Or if stretching just helps muscle recovery and flexibility?
I'm thankful for any answer I can get, have a nice evening/day everyone!

Hello sir, I really like all your videos. U explain them in a scientific way and make the topic easy to understand. But the subtitles are not at all clear. Can u plz use some other colour combination instead of white subtitles in yellow background coz that really adds up to what u explain.

stretching doesn't actually lengthen muscles! we still don't know what happens when you get more flexible. right now the most famous theory is that your nervous system just adapts because it learns that that new range of motion is no danger for the body.

To a large extent muscle tightness comes from muscle weakness. Muscles become tight to protect the body from injury. When the body identifies a weakness or instability in and around a joint the body will tighten up to prevent injury.
