The Full Bridge is a strength-flexibility powerhouse. It requires flexibility in:

• the shoulder joint,

• shoulder girdle,

• extension of the back,

• as well as extension of the hips.

This total body exercise has many names from Upward Bow to Wheel Pose to Full Bridge. In yoga it's known to give energy, help with osteoporosis, and stimulate a variety of glands and organs. Outside of yoga this exercise is very useful in gymnastics, acrobatics, various martial arts styles, wrestling, dance, etc.

The proprietary Zaichik Stretching Techniques we use guarantee quick and painless results. You’ll achieve a level of flexibility you didn’t think was possible. Not to mention all the added health benefits!

The hip flexors are naturally so tight, that the body has created many ways to compensate for the tightness.

Does this mean, it’s ok to have tightness in flexors of the hip? Of course not. The problem is, that everyone is trying to stretch them the wrong way, and instead, end up stretching everything else, as you’ve seen demonstrated in the two pictures above.

If you want to stretch these elusive muscles, you need to isolate them:

• There are 6 hip flexors and 4 adductors and all of them flex the hip.

• Too much to stretch all at once.

This program builds up on the previous one. (Thousands of people have extreme flexibility in their hip flexors from using our regular hip flexors program).

This video takes an already very fast and effective Zaichik Stretching Techniques and enhances them with "modalities" for even faster results.

Lateral Bending is often neglected compared to other targets of flexibility training, such as hamstrings or adductors. Apart from athletic applications being able to flex the body to the side benefits the lungs, as well as abdominal organs, according to traditional yoga views.
In athletic application side flexibility has a positive impact on any unilateral skill. Since very few sports do exactly the same movement with both arms and legs at a given time, the positive transfer over is very broad. From throwing sports such as baseball, football, and team handball to rocket sports such as tennis, squash and badminton. From combat techniques of wrestling, grappling and boxing to propulsion based skills of swimming and mountain climbing.

Just like many other standard anatomical movements, lateral bending is restricted by a large number of muscle groups.They apply force and subsequently restrict movement in various ranges.

Testing the flexibility of both hamstrings at the same time has been known as the standard bench mark of flexibility for generations. In yoga this position is practiced standing, sitting, laying down, etc. Here is a list of some of them. Padangusthasana (Big Toe Pose), Paschimottanasana (Seated Forward Bend), Uttanasana (Standing Forward Bend)

Besides Yoga, being able to stretch both hamstrings at the same time comes in hand in variety of sports. From Diving to Gymnastics, From Dance to Martial Arts, etc.

The challenge here is obvious. Two legs have to be stretched at the same time, with all the muscles restricting the hip flexion, are now times two. Because of such a high resistance, trying to master double hamstsrings stretch incorrectly, will force the more flexible part of the body to give, and unfortunately that is the lower back. In other words, standard forced stretch method, bring a high level possibility of injured lower back.
