This strength and flexibility routine is easy to do almost every day. I use for recovery from intense work like jiu jitsu training and to gradually improve strength and range of motion. Enhancing flexibility also allows me to work deeper into the body with my tai chi practice.
When there is a day that I’m not able to train and I manage to do this routine I still consider it a success.
In the video I mention a few resources you can look for online:
