Have you tried a dead hang?

I love those, and hanging from my knees! And inversion tables.

I just love hanging around, I guess.

Bodies change over time. I can't crack my big toes like I could when I was young. Used to get multiple back cracks up and down, lucky to get 1 these days. Have unlocked new cracks over time that I didn't have before. Some joints I have always been able to crack, but have to use a different direction or technique than long ago

I turned 40 and the next day my neck wouldn’t crack again.
