    Default Fle-eh-he-xibility

    I used to be the least flexible person ever. I couldn't touch my toes or anything. After starting running, I got more flexible and was able to touch my toes. Now, I'm able to places my palms down on the floor without bending at the knees for a few seconds. That gives me a nice stretching feeling.

    Maybe if I keep up running, and I try yoga, I'll be so flexible that I can be like one of those crazy tantric sex people, like Sting!

    Are you flexible?

    I can touch my toes but I can't hold my foot like I used to be able to.

    I've never been able to link my hands behind my back with one arm coming over the shoulder though, even when I was a kid. That's pretty bad.

    I have to pop my lower back all day xD That requires putting one hand on a wall or table and bending over until one leg is 180° from my torso.

    I'm not particularly flexible right now from a month of slovenliness, but I can still touch my toes (i like to brag about it )

    I can put my feet behind my head.

    And... that's it.

    I'm not flexible at all! When I did yoga I got to the point where I could grab my feet, but not anymore. I need to get back into the habit of stretching every day...

    I can palm the ground, that's about all I care to know.

    I'm a very short, petite girl and in my tiny-ness my limbs don't seem to want to bend. I'm horribly not flexible. I do exercise, and sometimes I try stetching exercises, but I never keep it up for long enough.

    Your story inspires me though Rye.

    I am able to perform a full lotus without having to manually move a leg with my hands.

    We do stretches everyday at work. I can touch the ground with my palms and go further if I have something below me to pull on like a grated floor. xD

    I'm also double-jointed in my shoulders and can touch my right ear with my right hand after circling my head with my right arm.

    I can touch my toes with ease and kick higher than my head. You decide.

    My body aches so much right now, I feel like I've been put through a demented exercise regimen, but all I have done is sleep I'm not even flexible enough to sit down at the moment!

    There must be a storm brewing that's affecting your old bones, MILF.

    I used to be pretty flexible but then I was introduced to video games and didn't really feel like doing anything after than. Now when I stretch I get all cramped up. I once got a cramp below my jaw just by yawning. It was amazing.
