Amen! No matter what, I have never been able to do it. My uncle, built same way,
lost out on a job with the railroad because of it. We compared our ability and we went to the exact same spot. My brother and oldest son are the same way.
I wrestled, played football, ran track and have done yoga. Just not a movement my body will make.
I am coaching a kids rec basketball team and teaching them to stretch. It is ridiculous.
