Waking up feeling stiff is extremely common, especially if you work out the day before. In this video, I’m going to show you the 4 best stretches to do every morning to help loosen up and increase your flexibility for the rest of the day. Much of what you are trying to overcome are the tightnesses that develop from our sleeping posture. Each of these stretches is going to help hit these key areas and allow you to do it quickly so as not to take up much time.. The first move is actually not a static stretch but rather a dynamic movement. The goal is to groove the hip hinge while at the same time stretch out the hamstrings a bit since many of us have chronically tight hamstring muscles from sitting all day. The reason we do this RDL movement however is not to statically stretch the hamstring but simply to warm them up. In the case of an anterior pelvic tilt you would not want to perform long stretches of the hamstrings, as they tend to be taut from pelvic positioning not actually muscle tightness.. From here you want to drop down into a deep squat position with your hands between your legs and flat on the floor. The goal is to turn your hands away from you with your fingers pointed backwards. This will stretch out the forearms and finger flexors while at the same time providing a nice stretch for the biceps. Believe it or not, the biceps do tend to get tight when sleeping because we sleep with our arms in some variation of a bent elbow position for hours on end.. The goal of this deep stretch however is to loosen up the hips and groin. If you are a side sleeper you will have your legs likely pulled up into your chest and your knees pressed against each other. This will tighten both the hip flexors and the hip adductors or groin muscles. There is nothing more important in the morning than trying to re-establish a looseness to these muscles since asymmetrical pulling on the pelvis can cause lots of postural low back pain and stiffness throughout the day.. Use your elbows to drive your knees apart and deepen the stretch while at the same time let your thighs help to reinforce the straightness of your arms for that good biceps and forearm stretch.. Next you want to really get at those hip flexors and stretch them out. The best way to do that is with an overhead leaning lunge stretch. Here you want to grab a wooden dowel, broomstick, etc that you can plant into the ground in front of you outside of your forward leg. Drop the opposite leg behind you until you feel a deep stretch on the upper front side of your thigh. From here, reach up to the top of the stick with both hands and twist/lean towards that side to enhance the stretch. If you do this right, you will be extending through the thoracic spine to regain any lost mobility from sleeping with a rounded upper back supported by the pillow.. Finally, you perform the standing shoulder stretch with the dowel or stick as well. This is an incredible stretch that will help to externally rotate your shoulders and work on loosening up the posterior deltoids as well. When laying on your side or on your stomach, your shoulders are often positioned into internal rotation. Again, the problem here is that you aren’t just staying like this for a few minutes but rather hours! If you want to loosen up the tightnesses that you cause by sleeping this way you have to devote just a few minutes each morning to doing that.. Each of these stretches can have a profound impact by just being held for 45 seconds or so, every morning. It won’t take you long to start to see and feel the benefits of adopting these four into your morning routine..

A morning stretching routine is also a beneficial way to start the day.
from Stretching Anatomy by Arnold G. Nelson, Jouko Kokkonen Human Kinetics, 2020
Some people find it helpful to stretch first thing in the morning while others prefer to stretch before bed.
For those whose lives are packed with things to do, waking up, rolling on your back, putting on your iPod for a Yoga Nidra before you get out of bed can be an ideal way to begin the day without adding a lot of extra effort.

Thanks. I have plantar f. Went to a podiatrist. She was ho hum okay. I incorporated your techniques esp the foot stretches before I get out of bed and am seeing a great reduction in pain and discomfort.
I don’t know the exact amount of days, but I’ve been doing this for about three months (I started in february). I’m very phisically active so, it’s hard to atribute changes to the practice of this rutine, so I’m only going to mention this one thing:
I have pronated feet and I have had bad knees ever since I was a teenager (I would get pain in my knees from running). At 30 I had to stop running through stairways because knee pain got too intense and I have never been able to squat with added wheight even at some point I had to abstain from deep squats. I’ve never though this was a hip mobility thing I thought and doctors agreed it was because of my ankles and they would prescribe me special insoles. The first thing I’ve notices while practicing this workout was soreness in my hip abductors, some in my lower back and my rotator cuff too it came back as I scaled up the moves and increased the amount of sets and time. I’m currently 32. For the last month I have been able to perform pistol squats (with asistance) my form is not pretty and I’m working on improving my balance, but depth is reasonably good (it’s a workout). I have never been able to do this before, and at this point in my life I never thought my knees would allow such a thing.
Summary of stretches from 1:30: Relaxed breathing Ankle pumps (plus stretch toe and bottom of foot) Hip rotation external (add a gentle kick) Figure 4 Hamstring stretch Hip rotation internal Hip flexion Piriformis stretch Wrist turnouts Y stretch Mid back stretch (with pillow) Love these Bob and Brad ♡
I’m a bit jealous of your physique, skill, knowledge, success, following… I’m a bit jealous about everything in relation to you, but man, you’re so amazing and your content is so valuable! Thank you for existing and all the best to you in life!
Wow! thank you for reaching these stretches! The common stretches don’t do it for me but you’ve really helped me feel way better. Ignore any haters you’re awesome bro
@Calisthenicmovement I have been going through your website and want to get a program. I want to be mobile and learn calisthenics but I don’t want to build muscle mass. Which is the program I should get in this case?
Squat-reach(from ur old video) gave me incurable constipation. As I raised my arm to reach something moved around my navel. It’s been 4 years I’m suffering from constipation. No doctor could cure me. Please El Eggs if you see this tell me some exercise that can correct it. Please I beg of you. It has destroyed my life. Tell me how can I reach u. How much I’ve to pay. please
You stole my piriformis/it band stretch! I showed my physio that one at the hospital and she said that was a great stretch and will use it for future patients! The banana one is a good side stretch as well. I do almost the exact same routine at bed time but I don’t stretch my arms and when I did that wrist stretch boy did I feel it! Thanks Bob and Brad
Hello Bob, hello Brad, hello Guys, I’m sitting hear in my room and listening to your words. I am a Physical Therapist too, but not so famous as you. I have to laugh about your show and jokes. You are great, yeah. Greetings from Black Forest, Germany.
I’ve been looking for quite sometime to find yoga videos that I could stick with & someone just recently recommended your channel. I love the wide variety of videos that you offer & how specific the titles are so that it’s super easy to find what you’re looking for…like something quick to get your day started on a positive note. But am I the only one that was jealous of Bengie, sleeping in the corner!?! LOL Such a cutie!!
You have such amazing videos and I love your humbleness! I appreciate these videos they have been helping me with my back issues for 2 years now! I do at least 15-20 every morning and man do I feel the difference! Thank you
Bob and Brad i need help. My right knee pops and clicks when I bend it to a certain degree (walking up stairs is when its the worse.) It clicks once when i retract and another time when i extend. I don’t feel pain, just tremendous amounts of discomfort. What could it be and what should I do? Keep up the great work guys!
Excellent in bed stretches, Bob/Brad. Covers the more important areas from a lazy position.:) I don’t condone in the bed slapping and smacks, and never would have been with anyone who would not smack me back, but maybe your mileage varies!:) (“Why, Bob, why?” ). Thank you Brad, for admonishing Bob. It humbles him. lol Have a good weekend. (cold weekend).
Yes, Saitama sensei!!! Do these before I start 100 pushups, 100 situps, 100 squats and 10 km run, right? Then I will be as strong as you? Thank you, sensei!!!
I was doing A before I even knew this my back would hurt and I would roll around in pain trying to stretch or pop anyway to get relief and was doing it for a few years now my gf always like what are u doing that don’t work but it felt so good I just had to make a small adjustment to make it proper after seeing this
Great stretching tips. I was wondering, there are some people that practice Yoga… I tried the basic sitting position and could not even do that. Do you have any videos in how to do this position? Thanks,
Hey, could you adress in one of your movies one thing that is certainly happening to more and more people who use mobilephons and computers all day long inward rotation of forearm. Right hand that most of use mouse with is more safe, but i have noticed that my left hand can not rotate properly outwards, and i asume that this is why i can’t go down fill ROM, and my glenohumeral joint hurts. How can I help myself?
I’ve been following these videos religiously since I got neck ache from sitting behind a computer all day. Recently a physiotherapist visited my place of work to teach us about posture and get us to do some stretches. She asked me if I’d ever done gymnastics because I was so flexible. Best compliment ever! Can’t thank you guys enough for all you’ve taught me:)
Can’t do the half, because I have a prosthetic on my leg… Can’t bend my knee more than 90 degrees and can’t stand with my legs that far away from each other. I hate this. It’s so demotivating. I can’t do shit… In daily life I am cool with it, don’t have problems. But as soon as it comes to sport I get depressed…
I’m definitely a morning stretcher, Always have been, and I also do my exercises in bed! I call them my lazy person routine! Glad I’m not alone on this. And you’re right, when I wake up my husband with my stretches he always goes and gets me my coffee while I finish my routine! How did you know?
Taken shortly before sleep, it helps shorten the time needed to fall asleep due to the melatonin content. The supplement also contains lemon balm leaves, hops extract, chamomile and saffron, which help relax the body and contribute to relieving tension and irritation, as well as help in falling asleep and maintaining a healthy sleep. Additionally, thanks to vitamin B6 content, the supplement aids in the normal functioning of the nervous system and helps maintain the proper psychological functions. http://nplink.net/P0yg90ki
This has got to be the easiest stretching routine ever!!! Very practical for in or out of bed. Gonna benefit from this so much, good job guys. Much Appreciated, God Bless!!!
So whats wrong with your back day one my back is broke day 90 i feel greatttttt foh you are a clown lmfao what you fitness people do is crazy let me slunch over and act like I have no form then last day Im stand straight up looking fit as ever foh
I am glad to find this video. I need to do my mobility routines in morning before I go for my daily running. It helps me to use my squat and cross seated position, also my hips feel better and my body feels warmed up.
During these CRAZY times, your yoga videos has really helped me find some peace. I watch your videos after doing Chloe Tings workouts and these are really helpful!
Just wanted to thank you for showing that hip hinge stretch. I had lower back pain for months after an accident while moving furniture. I went to a physical therapist for it but their exercises didn’t help me. The hip hinge gave me instant relief from the pain and after a few months of doing it regularly I’m pretty much restored. Huge thanks.
@calisthenicsmovement Not sure if you know this but a Facebook ad by Posture Dream used a clip of your video for their ads. If you search Posture Dream in FB, go through their video list, you’ll see one of them has you in it.
I just love you guys, making productivity, and progress one day and one step at a time. Great Great information and demonstrations. Thank you for sharing you knowledge and time.
Are you in Illinois area. How & where a new client obtain your services. Something is not working with what I have been doing I. need new direction to achieve goals.
I can feel benefits of stretching but I’m limited by a pain on left side from the thigh into the groin. Should I keep trying or is that causing more harm?
Love you guys and your videos! Please give us a little more volume in your recordings, please. Thank you! I enjoy sharing them with lots of folks! Keep up the good work and TURN UP THE VOLUME!:)
Great way to start the day! Feels good, too. btw, meditation is to quiet the mind, and eventually still the mind. Getting the mind going and thinking about the day, is something else. “Hopefully you won’t be like him…”??? Not very nice, but nice morning stretches, though.
I was searching for “morning” (affirmations) & my 18 month old decided to do the rest and came onto yoga and the. Your video. And I am glad she did. The first video where the directions where comfortable enough to keep my eyes closed most of the timeand enjoy the practicei still opened them to make sure I was doing it right. I was only able to do 7 minutes as my child needed my lap during half warrior pose. I’m subscribed so ill be back. Thank you for your service
These guys are great I didn’t know you can do a lot of different type of stretching exercises in bed I thought you have to be on floor that’s even better for me.
Guys, you are helping me to keep me Moving despite chronic pain I appreciate you twofortheeducationyouprovide to those who need it. Youhavefound you’re life”‘s purpose inn helping mankind. Typing without reading glasses. Sorry. LOL
Guys help! I used to love to do that full body stretch, but since treatment for breast cancer my lattisimus dorsae or erector spinae muscles go into spasm instantly (even if I had knees raised or on a bolster) This happens after sleep, after yoga, and even after a beauty treatment when I have been lying on a treatment table for 30-60 mins.
Is it age? (I hit 50) Could it be cancer hormone inhibitors? (I am on Tamoxifen) Or could it just be tgat I am out of shape after 2 years cancer treatment? (I had chemo, bilateral mx and diep recon 2 years ago)
Trouble is I forget and automatically stretch like this then am wracked with pain (only on roght hand side)
I’ve been strenghtening and stretching my body with you two wonderful gentlemen and after 2 weeks I see a great improvement. Thank You for sharing your knowledge and experience with me.
i made it a habit over 6 months ago to do morning bed and side-of-the-bed stretches like these (along with facial exercises, because i. am. vain. and i wanna look good allll over, not just feel good!! i also do eye exercises at the same time because i wanna clearly seeee how greeeaaat i look allll over!! hahaaaaa!!!)
recently i started getting up and FIRST drinking water, THEN doing a brief arm circle, and upper back movement as in the vid, as a warm up.
since they mentioned james brown’s “i feel good” i’m going to add to this routine by playing my private yt playlist titled “get it together NOW!” that begins with THAT song and other songs with “I FEEL” good/fine etc lyrics!!! i will start my music therapy first…
It’s awesome to have some confirmation that some of the movements/stretches I’ve done since I was a child because it relieved tension are actually recommended by physio therapists.

Ok I am definitely trying these when I get home as I don’t currently have access to a stick (I work away from home in a camp-type situation and currently all of the fitness facilities are closed because COVID) and I straight up can’t make my body do the second thing, but I’m going to work on it.
bro just by the way you want to do these stretches at night as, like you said, the body is healing during the night, and if you stretch you let your body heal in the loosest and most functional way, you don’t want your body to heal while you are stiff and tight as it may heal wrong, or heal over in incorrect tight posture. Great vid otherwise but yea, strech before going to sleep is slightly more optimal muscular recovery, as opposed to stretching in the morning
Jeff is truly an amazing athlete because of his deep knowledge of how the body works. Sure, I like fitness, but Cavaliere is thinking about this on a whole other level.
I’m actually already very flexible so I found few stretches a lot harder! Maybe wondering wait so if you were more flexible it’s harder? of course because I have to get a deeper stretch in order to feel it I have to lean into it more in order to feel it… the crouching frog one that stretches out your biceps was actually the hardest one for me because I’m very flexible in my hips and my butt was pretty much sitting down on the floor and my arms and legs are a lot longer so it’s hard for me to not hurt my elbows. I found that I had to be extra extra about twisting and going out further with the stick The last stretch did absolutely nothing for me no matter what I did. By no means am I saying that these were bad, it’s just that I am a little bit more advanced in my flexibility and I have to do something else in order to get those stretches in
My wife and I are somewhere around 150ish days straight of replacing those old sluggish habits with new life breathing, energizing new ones. We began yoga with Adrienne a couple of years ago and havent looked back! We are in our 40s and giggle sometimes during practice like we did together when we were in high school! Even our blue heeler ‘Rue’ knows yoga times thru the day and insists she lay as close as she can to her daddy’s mat LOL! Namaste and thank you for making this available to us! Remember everyone…..getting on the mat is the hardest part! ♀️♂️
Might be helpful to have all of your “every morning” stretches on one video. For instance combine “Do This Stretch First Thing EVERY Morning” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4-MLaa4nCs&t=46s to this video “4 Stretches You Should Be Doing EVERY Morning” and/or any others considered first things to do every morning. Kind regards. Keep pumping!
What are recommend starting workouts for someone that was athletic but isn’t as much anymore. I’m in the army but I’m also injured, I have a slight lower back problem so it hurt sometimes when I’m over exerting and army doctors don’t help so I don’t know what the problem is. It could be posture and a mix of wearing improper sized gear. I can still do most daily things with no problem, so it could be I need to strengthen my back.
I’m 32 and wake up feeling like I’m in a 99 year old body, hate it, slowly it’s making me bitter and depressed. Going to try this and one other video from this channel that had positive reviews. Stay tuned..
Is there any alternative for the second exercise? I find that I can’t get into the position without shifting onto my toes with my heels off the floor, or I’d fall backwards
Yall had a shorter version of this. But this one already in first session feels much better! Yall have been awesome since i started following yall. Love yalls videos!
Just found this video and thank you, my hamstrings are shocking I can’t get close to the floor, but these I can do and wow they hurt but feel great at the same time. THANK YOU!
I love this, you guys should do a follow along video to accompany this! (There’s a lot of really informational preamble but I’d also like a version I can watch every day in the morning)
Hello everyone! This lovely little gem is great first thing in the morning or helpful when you just need to move, but can’t commit to a lot. What is something else you do to start your day off on the right foot?
I really like your 10-20 minutes practices. I love doing yoga in the morning, but I don’t have that much time and these are perfect to start a day. I don’t do the power yoga or sth more advanced, but it feels so refreshing to stretch my muscles breathing cool air. Thank you:)
Could you do a video on exercises something to help with peripheral neuropathy especially the balls of the feet and toes as well as fingers. I can use all the help I can get
Happy Saturday. This seems like the perfect progression for me getting back into the swing of things and it made me sweat a bit so I know I am on the right track. Thank you. Jai Namaste.
Thx you so much for your Sports home Programm for no Weight at home. I combined it with some basketball trills(there was a single court nearby) over the period of Corna and even though I was bevor that time in the gym about 4 times a week I never felt so fit then after the program.
i’ve been waking up at 6am every day, and i felt sick most of the time rather than healthy or energized. i decided to move my daily yoga to my early wake up time, and thought this video might be nice. my body felt so strained when i was following along w the video but omg i actually feel awake and fresh afterwards!! thank you adriene
Thank you, Adriene! I found you early in this pandemic. I love what you’re doing. Your yoga has kept my stress level lower, and I’m certain it got me through spring home schooling. Keep up the great work. ❤️
Was waking up stiff for a while now. Thought I was just getting old! But even 10 minutes of your yoga leaves me feeling 100x better. Thank you, Adrienne. X
I love yoga. And i love to do yoga whit you my mom do yoga whit you to. But know i going to read a book becaus i love to read after i have done yoga baaaiiii ☺️
I come back to this video time and time again. It never fails to make me feel totally invigorated. I don’t know how you manage to fit so much variation in 11 minutes but these positions target all of the key parts that cause tension in my body. Love it! Thank you Adriene! <3
This practice is so good for when you wake up. It really helped me because, I was feeling kind of grumpy in the morning but, when I found this practice, my morning went really well! It was a nice yoga for the morning. I highly recommend this practice to anyone who wants to have a nice and positive day! Thanks a lot Adrienne!❤️❤️❤️❤️
SOLD!! I do a couple of these but seven makes it complete. I love to lay flat on back & wave one leg at a time like a windshield wiper from one side of the bed to the other w/a slight roll of the hips. While following your lead today, I learned L ankle on R knee was sorta-ok but R ankle on L knee was big problem. Could bring R leg to 45 degrees but laying it on at 90 degrees was painful down R side of R calf (calve?). Will work that slowly each each AM until I’m comfortable w/it. In fact, I think this would be a wonderful way to end each day since I sit all day doing Manicures, Pedicures, Facials, Face & Body Waxing & Bookkeeping for same. This was great, Guys!! Thanks so much!! Subscribed today Sun-10/06/2019 @ 11:01 AM
I do some of these already, but will have to try the others. Wouldn’t start my day without my stretches; it does make a HUGE difference! I use my stretch strap for the hamstring one.
Wow! What a great wake-up sequence! I only had a few minutes before I had to take a friend for a chemo treatment and this was just what I needed thank you!
I was looking for Morning Yoga videos that will hopefully help me feel energised when trying to wake up much earlier than normal. I was wondering why this video was the top result compared to the one with 13M views and then I saw… DOG!! But not just that of course haha, I’ve looked at a lot of videos and love yours the most as I feel it suits me the most! Thank you!:)
Thanks. I have plantar f. Went to a podiatrist. She was ho hum okay. I incorporated your techniques esp the foot stretches before I get out of bed and am seeing a great reduction in pain and discomfort.
I don’t know the exact amount of days, but I’ve been doing this for about three months (I started in february).
I’m very phisically active so, it’s hard to atribute changes to the practice of this rutine, so I’m only going to mention this one thing:
I have pronated feet and I have had bad knees ever since I was a teenager (I would get pain in my knees from running). At 30 I had to stop running through stairways because knee pain got too intense and I have never been able to squat with added wheight even at some point I had to abstain from deep squats. I’ve never though this was a hip mobility thing I thought and doctors agreed it was because of my ankles and they would prescribe me special insoles. The first thing I’ve notices while practicing this workout was soreness in my hip abductors, some in my lower back and my rotator cuff too it came back as I scaled up the moves and increased the amount of sets and time.
I’m currently 32. For the last month I have been able to perform pistol squats (with asistance) my form is not pretty and I’m working on improving my balance, but depth is reasonably good (it’s a workout). I have never been able to do this before, and at this point in my life I never thought my knees would allow such a thing.
I want to express my gratitude.
Summary of stretches from 1:30:
Relaxed breathing
Ankle pumps (plus stretch toe and bottom of foot)
Hip rotation external (add a gentle kick)
Figure 4
Hamstring stretch
Hip rotation internal
Hip flexion
Piriformis stretch

Love these Bob and Brad ♡
The only period of my life in which I was a morning person was when I was in the army. We used to get up I little faster though! Greek Marines.
I’m a bit jealous of your physique, skill, knowledge, success, following… I’m a bit jealous about everything in relation to you, but man, you’re so amazing and your content is so valuable! Thank you for existing and all the best to you in life!
I just have a request for this bald guy in blue shorts who has a body everyone wants
Please change your clothes
Please!!
Just a joke
Wow! thank you for reaching these stretches! The common stretches don’t do it for me but you’ve really helped me feel way better. Ignore any haters you’re awesome bro
@Calisthenicmovement
I have been going through your website and want to get a program. I want to be mobile and learn calisthenics but I don’t want to build muscle mass. Which is the program I should get in this case?
Squat-reach(from ur old video) gave me incurable constipation. As I raised my arm to reach something moved around my navel. It’s been 4 years I’m suffering from constipation. No doctor could cure me. Please El Eggs if you see this tell me some exercise that can correct it. Please I beg of you. It has destroyed my life. Tell me how can I reach u. How much I’ve to pay. please
You stole my piriformis/it band stretch! I showed my physio that one at the hospital and she said that was a great stretch and will use it for future patients! The banana one is a good side stretch as well. I do almost the exact same routine at bed time but I don’t stretch my arms and when I did that wrist stretch boy did I feel it! Thanks Bob and Brad
Hello Bob, hello Brad, hello Guys,
I’m sitting hear in my room and listening to your words.
I am a Physical Therapist too, but not so famous as you.
I have to laugh about your show and jokes. You are great, yeah. Greetings from Black Forest, Germany.
I’ve been looking for quite sometime to find yoga videos that I could stick with & someone just recently recommended your channel. I love the wide variety of videos that you offer & how specific the titles are so that it’s super easy to find what you’re looking for…like something quick to get your day started on a positive note.
But am I the only one that was jealous of Bengie, sleeping in the corner!?! LOL Such a cutie!!
You have such amazing videos and I love your humbleness! I appreciate these videos they have been helping me with my back issues for 2 years now! I do at least 15-20 every morning and man do I feel the difference! Thank you
Bob and Brad i need help. My right knee pops and clicks when I bend it to a certain degree (walking up stairs is when its the worse.) It clicks once when i retract and another time when i extend. I don’t feel pain, just tremendous amounts of discomfort. What could it be and what should I do? Keep up the great work guys!
Excellent in bed stretches, Bob/Brad. Covers the more important areas from a lazy position.:) I don’t condone in the bed slapping and smacks, and never would have been with anyone who would not smack me back, but maybe your mileage varies!:) (“Why, Bob, why?” ). Thank you Brad, for admonishing Bob. It humbles him. lol Have a good weekend. (cold weekend).
Yes, Saitama sensei!!! Do these before I start 100 pushups, 100 situps, 100 squats and 10 km run, right? Then I will be as strong as you? Thank you, sensei!!!
I was doing A before I even knew this my back would hurt and I would roll around in pain trying to stretch or pop anyway to get relief and was doing it for a few years now my gf always like what are u doing that don’t work but it felt so good I just had to make a small adjustment to make it proper after seeing this
Your golf swing would be great if you kept you left hip bone over your left knee as you rotated back. arm at 90 degrees is perfect.
Great stretching tips. I was wondering, there are some people that practice Yoga… I tried the basic sitting position and could not even do that. Do you have any videos in how to do this position? Thanks,
Hey, could you adress in one of your movies one thing that is certainly happening to more and more people who use mobilephons and computers all day long inward rotation of forearm. Right hand that most of use mouse with is more safe, but i have noticed that my left hand can not rotate properly outwards, and i asume that this is why i can’t go down fill ROM, and my glenohumeral joint hurts. How can I help myself?
I’ve been following these videos religiously since I got neck ache from sitting behind a computer all day. Recently a physiotherapist visited my place of work to teach us about posture and get us to do some stretches. She asked me if I’d ever done gymnastics because I was so flexible. Best compliment ever! Can’t thank you guys enough for all you’ve taught me:)
Can’t do the half, because I have a prosthetic on my leg… Can’t bend my knee more than 90 degrees and can’t stand with my legs that far away from each other. I hate this. It’s so demotivating. I can’t do shit… In daily life I am cool with it, don’t have problems. But as soon as it comes to sport I get depressed…
I’m definitely a morning stretcher, Always have been, and I also do my exercises in bed! I call them my lazy person routine! Glad I’m not alone on this.
And you’re right, when I wake up my husband with my stretches he always goes and gets me my coffee while I finish my routine!
How did you know?
WHY BOB WHY?!!
Taken shortly before sleep, it helps shorten the time needed to fall asleep due to the melatonin content. The supplement also contains lemon balm leaves, hops extract, chamomile and saffron, which help relax the body and contribute to relieving tension and irritation, as well as help in falling asleep and maintaining a healthy sleep. Additionally, thanks to vitamin B6 content, the supplement aids in the normal functioning of the nervous system and helps maintain the proper psychological functions. http://nplink.net/P0yg90ki
This has got to be the easiest stretching routine ever!!! Very practical for in or out of bed. Gonna benefit from this so much, good job guys. Much Appreciated, God Bless!!!
So whats wrong with your back day one my back is broke day 90 i feel greatttttt foh you are a clown lmfao what you fitness people do is crazy let me slunch over and act like I have no form then last day Im stand straight up looking fit as ever foh
No bullshit introduction.
Direct to the point with good explanation.
This is provides more better demonstration unlike chris heria.
I am glad to find this video. I need to do my mobility routines in morning before I go for my daily running. It helps me to use my squat and cross seated position, also my hips feel better and my body feels warmed up.
During these CRAZY times, your yoga videos has really helped me find some peace. I watch your videos after doing Chloe Tings workouts and these are really helpful!
Just wanted to thank you for showing that hip hinge stretch. I had lower back pain for months after an accident while moving furniture. I went to a physical therapist for it but their exercises didn’t help me. The hip hinge gave me instant relief from the pain and after a few months of doing it regularly I’m pretty much restored. Huge thanks.
@calisthenicsmovement Not sure if you know this but a Facebook ad by Posture Dream used a clip of your video for their ads. If you search Posture Dream in FB, go through their video list, you’ll see one of them has you in it.
I just love you guys, making productivity, and progress one day and one step at a time. Great Great information and demonstrations. Thank you for sharing you knowledge and time.
Hello Brad and Bob are you two at. Camelback in Naperville. I am doing the exercises so far so good. the heel pain will take longer
Are you in Illinois area. How & where a new client obtain your services. Something is not working with what I have been doing I. need new direction to achieve goals.
I can feel benefits of stretching but I’m limited by a pain on left side from the thigh into the groin. Should I keep trying or is that causing more harm?
I’ve been doing this workout for more than a month now.
I only do this cause it’s easy and fun to do. GONNA keep doing it for the rest of my life.
in this pose 9:01 I can’t make my left leg fully straight bc it hurts, unlike my right leg which I can make it straight. Is that normal?
Love you guys and your videos! Please give us a little more volume in your recordings, please. Thank you! I enjoy sharing them with lots of folks! Keep up the good work and TURN UP THE VOLUME!:)
Great way to start the day! Feels good, too. btw, meditation is to quiet the mind, and eventually still the mind. Getting the mind going and thinking about the day, is something else.
“Hopefully you won’t be like him…”??? Not very nice, but nice morning stretches, though.
I was searching for “morning” (affirmations) & my 18 month old decided to do the rest and came onto yoga and the. Your video. And I am glad she did. The first video where the directions where comfortable enough to keep my eyes closed most of the timeand enjoy the practicei still opened them to make sure I was doing it right. I was only able to do 7 minutes as my child needed my lap during half warrior pose. I’m subscribed so ill be back. Thank you for your service
Also the horse stance if you placed your foot parallel or outwards it helps to activate glute or hamstring muscles if I heard it correctly.
These guys are great I didn’t know you can do a lot of different type of stretching exercises in bed I thought you have to be on floor that’s even better for me.
From time to time I’m trying some other yoga teacher and always running back to you. won’t do anymore You are the ONE an the ONLY!!!!
Thank you, Bob and Brad, for this! It is extremely helpful. I needed a morning stretch routine and this is easy and do-able. And it feels good!
Guys, you are helping me to keep me Moving despite chronic pain I appreciate you twofortheeducationyouprovide to those who need it. Youhavefound you’re life”‘s purpose inn helping mankind. Typing without reading glasses. Sorry. LOL
Guys help! I used to love to do that full body stretch, but since treatment for breast cancer my lattisimus dorsae or erector spinae muscles go into spasm instantly (even if I had knees raised or on a bolster)
This happens after sleep, after yoga, and even after a beauty treatment when I have been lying on a treatment table for 30-60 mins.
Is it age? (I hit 50)
Could it be cancer hormone inhibitors? (I am on Tamoxifen)
Or could it just be tgat I am out of shape after 2 years cancer treatment? (I had chemo, bilateral mx and diep recon 2 years ago)
Trouble is I forget and automatically stretch like this then am wracked with pain (only on roght hand side)
Any ideas?
I’ve been strenghtening and stretching my body with you two wonderful gentlemen and after 2 weeks I see a great improvement. Thank You for sharing your knowledge and experience with me.
i made it a habit over 6 months ago to do morning bed and side-of-the-bed stretches like these (along with facial exercises, because i. am. vain. and i wanna look good allll over, not just feel good!! i also do eye exercises at the same time because i wanna clearly seeee how greeeaaat i look allll over!! hahaaaaa!!!)
recently i started getting up and FIRST drinking water, THEN doing a brief arm circle, and upper back movement as in the vid, as a warm up.
since they mentioned james brown’s “i feel good” i’m going to add to this routine by playing my private yt playlist titled “get it together NOW!” that begins with THAT song and other songs with “I FEEL” good/fine etc lyrics!!! i will start my music therapy first…
WHOOOHOOOOO!!!!!
It’s awesome to have some confirmation that some of the movements/stretches I’ve done since I was a child because it relieved tension are actually recommended by physio therapists.

I literally cant get my heel to touch the ground when i do the 2nd stretch. I know my calges are tight but they wont untighten no matter what i do.
Ok I am definitely trying these when I get home as I don’t currently have access to a stick (I work away from home in a camp-type situation and currently all of the fitness facilities are closed because COVID) and I straight up can’t make my body do the second thing, but I’m going to work on it.
bro just by the way you want to do these stretches at night as, like you said, the body is healing during the night, and if you stretch you let your body heal in the loosest and most functional way, you don’t want your body to heal while you are stiff and tight as it may heal wrong, or heal over in incorrect tight posture. Great vid otherwise but yea, strech before going to sleep is slightly more optimal muscular recovery, as opposed to stretching in the morning
“And this feels…horrible!” He says.
Jeff is truly an amazing athlete because of his deep knowledge of how the body works. Sure, I like fitness, but Cavaliere is thinking about this on a whole other level.
Im a child of God,
But my goodness that body is distracting lol.
He flexing while he “sleep”, he flexing while he standing, he flexing while breathing.
I’m actually already very flexible so I found few stretches a lot harder! Maybe wondering wait so if you were more flexible it’s harder? of course because I have to get a deeper stretch in order to feel it I have to lean into it more in order to feel it… the crouching frog one that stretches out your biceps was actually the hardest one for me because I’m very flexible in my hips and my butt was pretty much sitting down on the floor and my arms and legs are a lot longer so it’s hard for me to not hurt my elbows.
I found that I had to be extra extra about twisting and going out further with the stick
The last stretch did absolutely nothing for me no matter what I did. By no means am I saying that these were bad, it’s just that I am a little bit more advanced in my flexibility and I have to do something else in order to get those stretches in
My wife and I are somewhere around 150ish days straight of replacing those old sluggish habits with new life breathing, energizing new ones. We began yoga with Adrienne a couple of years ago and havent looked back! We are in our 40s and giggle sometimes during practice like we did together when we were in high school! Even our blue heeler ‘Rue’ knows yoga times thru the day and insists she lay as close as she can to her daddy’s mat LOL! Namaste and thank you for making this available to us! Remember everyone…..getting on the mat is the hardest part! ♀️♂️
Might be helpful to have all of your “every morning” stretches on one video. For instance combine “Do This Stretch First Thing EVERY Morning” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4-MLaa4nCs&t=46s to this video “4 Stretches You Should Be Doing EVERY Morning” and/or any others considered first things to do every morning. Kind regards. Keep pumping!
What are recommend starting workouts for someone that was athletic but isn’t as much anymore. I’m in the army but I’m also injured, I have a slight lower back problem so it hurt sometimes when I’m over exerting and army doctors don’t help so I don’t know what the problem is. It could be posture and a mix of wearing improper sized gear. I can still do most daily things with no problem, so it could be I need to strengthen my back.
I’m 32 and wake up feeling like I’m in a 99 year old body, hate it, slowly it’s making me bitter and depressed. Going to try this and one other video from this channel that had positive reviews. Stay tuned..
Is there any alternative for the second exercise? I find that I can’t get into the position without shifting onto my toes with my heels off the floor, or I’d fall backwards
Yall had a shorter version of this. But this one already in first session feels much better! Yall have been awesome since i started following yall. Love yalls videos!
That’s an excellent video, guysI will stick to these 7 exercises every morning. It will replace my pray ( je vous salue Marie…)
Just found this video and thank you, my hamstrings are shocking I can’t get close to the floor, but these I can do and wow they hurt but feel great at the same time.
THANK YOU!
I love this, you guys should do a follow along video to accompany this! (There’s a lot of really informational preamble but I’d also like a version I can watch every day in the morning)
Hello everyone! This lovely little gem is great first thing in the morning or helpful when you just need to move, but can’t commit to a lot. What is something else you do to start your day off on the right foot?
I really like your 10-20 minutes practices. I love doing yoga in the morning, but I don’t have that much time and these are perfect to start a day. I don’t do the power yoga or sth more advanced, but it feels so refreshing to stretch my muscles breathing cool air. Thank you:)
Could you do a video on exercises something to help with peripheral neuropathy especially the balls of the feet and toes as well as fingers. I can use all the help I can get

Happy Saturday. This seems like the perfect progression for me getting back into the swing of things and it made me sweat a bit so I know I am on the right track. Thank you. Jai Namaste.
Thx you so much for your Sports home Programm for no Weight at home. I combined it with some basketball trills(there was a single court nearby) over the period of Corna and even though I was bevor that time in the gym about 4 times a week I never felt so fit then after the program.
i’ve been waking up at 6am every day, and i felt sick most of the time rather than healthy or energized. i decided to move my daily yoga to my early wake up time, and thought this video might be nice. my body felt so strained when i was following along w the video but omg i actually feel awake and fresh afterwards!! thank you adriene
Thank you, Adriene! I found you early in this pandemic. I love what you’re doing. Your yoga has kept my stress level lower, and I’m certain it got me through spring home schooling. Keep up the great work. ❤️
Was waking up stiff for a while now. Thought I was just getting old! But even 10 minutes of your yoga leaves me feeling 100x better. Thank you, Adrienne. X
I love yoga. And i love to do yoga whit you my mom do yoga whit you to. But know i going to read a book becaus i love to read after i have done yoga baaaiiii ☺️

It was a nice yoga for the morning. I highly recommend this practice to anyone who wants to have a nice and positive day! Thanks a lot Adrienne!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Lovely start to the day. Awoke tired and late, but there is a YWA routine for every situation. So now my day is on track! Thank you!
I just did my first ever yoga session with you right now Thank you, I feel so peaceful! I’m excited to watch more videos and try em out
I haven’t done yoga since my move about 2 months now & just did it this morning & wowowow. I feel like a whole new human. Bless bless bless!!

“You gotta be psychologically prepared…” hahaha!
I like these very useful videos. However, I would suggest making them with less chat so we can focus on the movements and instructions. Thank you.
