Hope you guys enjoyed version 2 of the beginner stretch series! It feels so good to take a few minutes out of the day to stretch and pay close attention to your body ❤️ Sending you all love! Xx- Maddie
Ow
This is really not for the beginners
This is my all time favorite stretch video, I always come back.
So great❤❤
Awesome! Great stretching exercises for Beginners ❤
this was for beginners? sheesh…….im at the level before beginners
This is absolutely not for beginners!
Thanks
Y'all I grew half an inch from following this stretch everyday for a month
frog pose is not for the weak, the insides of my knee bones hated the hard floor 😭
Thank you! This was just the right amount of stretches for me.
Thank you it was really good
I enjoyed the routine but would not consider frog poise a beginner position…
<3
thank youuuu
I tried this a day ago and my muscles feel like trembling and stretching and aching real bad. I wanna do this but my muscles feel so sore lol😭😭😭
hey i thought this is for the inflexible. but its not its for flexible persons. i cant reach the ground with my hands while standing.
I’ve been doing a different video each day and today I choose this and honestly it’s the one that challenged me the most some of the moves felt too advanced for my level (I reach the lower part of my shin when I bend over) but I powered through and maybe they aren’t! Maybe I just have to keep going until one day they become easier I definitely have to be more careful next time because I hurt my back when doing this 29:03
Great challenging stretch. I have to work on the frog stretch but that’s ok
I do not recommend move neck so much.
Outstanding, thanks so much!
I wish these instructors understood what inflexible and beginners actually look like lol actually what the fuck is this
Fighting for my life in frog pose
Maddy: "this should be totally comfortable it is a stretch after all"
😢😢
Thanks a lot your exercise
I did the strech with my 11months poodel and it worked wonders! Thanks MadFit! Love you girl! ♥️
First time doing Yoga anything. Decided to try it since this is my off day from cardio and weights. This video was easy to follow and do. Except the frog pose at the end that about took me out. Will for sure see what other videos you have on here.
Wonderful stretch after a difficult workout! Thank you! Looking forward to the next time!
Loved it ❤
It would be great to add a timer not having a time stress me out 😭
Feel like a new woman, thanks girl!
It’s a beautiful flow
Thank you for your video
This rocked all my lower back pain has subsided!!! Thanks your a blessing!!!!
Great 👍🏻
This is for advance beginners 😂 this is really hard for me
Me doing it on the bed: not a very good idea. 20:32
that's yoga. do you have any stretches that isn't yoga?
girl you almost killed me (see you again tomorrow)
i am so not flexible i had to do half of it with my back against the wall lol
AWESOME 😎😎😎
❤❤
Genial… thank you
OK, most of that is not available for me, where is the "Pre-Beginner" yoga presentation?
For some of these I'm like 'this is a perfectly normal sitting pose, how is this a stretch?' meanwhile for others… I can barely even start to do the stretch.
