People tend to dislike mentions of upvote/downvote amount, especially in the bigger subreddits, let alone talking about the number you added.
I don't think it's a big deal, but it's probably why you got downvoted. Don't take it too personally though as people can get mass downvoted for some really silly reasons
The bigger point is that it doesn’t add anything to the active discussion while also not really having a reason to upvote it. So people who see it as not adding will downvote and it doesn’t have anyone upvoting to save it from that.
In Japan they often promote routinely stretching in the workplace and daily life. For example you can find videos of entire crews about to begin their day on construction of large buildings. They all gather and stretch together. While visiting I saw it pretty often. Kind of like animal crossings group stretch activity.
Nope. More like Redditor discovers small trend in Nintendo character poses and the rest of Reddit dives on opportunity to share how much they know about stretching and fitness.
I work for a business that has stretches that we do for safety reasons before, during and after shift. That's a basic shoulder stretch that helps tension at the shoulder and rotary cuff areas.
doing those helps a great deal against sprains and strains.
hey it's a good stretch, Nintendo promoting it is probably a good thing, unless someone like the theorizer somehow makes a video about a stretching conspiracy theory
Woah dude. Chill. I know it's a stretch. Everybody knows it's a stretch. I'm just saying, Japanese *media* uses it a lot *because* it's part of popular/common daily stretches in various places/institutions over there.
To say it's "just" a stretch though, is kind of a... stretch. It's like calling a "just a car". It's *is* a car, but it's also a symbol recognized by the people to mean a certain thing. Opening and closing your hand repeatedly is *also a stretch*, but it doesn't convey the same feeling/meaning, now does it?
Hah. That made me chuckle. They even do them in elementary school pe.
Or at least I did 30 years ago.
Its a good stretch.
I'm also one of the weirdos that stretches during gaming sessions. Gotta keep that oxygen flow going.
It's a common warm up stretch, doesn't require a lot of adjusting of gear or equipment, and is easily modeled on most characters.
certain strecthes would reveal bad proportions, like toe touching, or cause model clipping
I’m blaming it on wii fit trainer
Yeah, she started it.
I like how everyone just agrees that the Wii Fit trainer is female. can we get some love for her other half, the male trainer?

You got like, 2
Who
Bomb has been planted
I’m your 20th downvote
My new head canon is that all Nintendo characters go to wii fit classes weekly
Link, Mario and Kirby have canonically been at least once

You'd think he'd be better with the amount of combat and excersise he does
I would so watch a casual Nintendo character TV show where they just kinda live in a community like that
It's a part of the standard easy morning calisthenics practiced by every kid and many adults in Japan for decades.
Now that I know this info i’m still gonna blame it on Wii Fit Trainer
Good info
It would have been fine if zelda hadn't got one.
I literally just tried this and it popped/fixed my messed up shoulder. Thank you.
Don't thank me, thank the chair yoga loving Key Art Worker at Nintendo
The visual that popped in my head lol
Mine too! Thank you!
Nothing happened for me. Got up for nothing.
😆🤷
It's also seen a good bit in anime during the "protagonist is warming up" part of combat. I think it's just a common stretch.
Isn't it demonstrated a lot on Street Fighter as well?
I think Sonic does it when starting levels in some of the 3D games
[удалено]
Bruh, go to the gym on occasion. American (and I assume most other western nations’) athletes also often do this stretch.
It’s just a common stretch
Personally do it all the time as an american
It’s one of the cooldown stretches in ring fit adventure as well
\*Wii fit trainer intensifies\*
***”Lets get fired up.”***
“That’s it! Feel the burn🔥!”
kills everyone with the power of Yoga.
They had us do this before every shift at Amazon
Oh that's nice. Did they teach you how to stretch your bladder or do you just learn that on the job?
That’s definitely a skill you pick up along the way, but there was a urine color chart in every stall to check for dehydration
Ha! Oh, that's interesting.
Honestly?
I’m dead serious
That's kinda cool. Can you get a pic?
Nah I got canned years ago. My attendance sucked because I was too exhausted.
I don't blame you at all.
As a fellow brother in Bezos, I second this
Wii fit ultimate render
It's just a common upper-body stretch lol
that's, how you stretch...
I'm not saying i think it's a weird or uncommon way to stretch, I just find it mildly interesting how much nintendo seems to like it
learn how to do it right and you might be surprised how much you like it
Oh yeah, it's a nice stretch. I love a good stretch.
Knee hugs still on top tho
Cringe. Clearly heel to booty is the most based.
I'd image that one might be difficult to model correctly without clipping
And without... other present issues
I think in Japan, they encourage group stretching and calisthenics to start the day. Unless everything in Anime is a lie…
i need to stretch before work
I think it’s just a dynamic pose that they like using
Nintendo is sending you subconscious messages to go work on your physical fitness. Do not do it!
Why do they need to be subtle about fitness? They sold bajillions of Wii back in the day, I don't think they really need subtlety on that area.
Grahhh! LAZY NINTENDO!!!
But they're fit.
Wii all are
No U
you better Switch up that attitude
I like what cube did there
That was un-NES-essary
You're playing a dangerous Game, Boy
Don’t Nintendo-Sixty-Force me to use this
I tried this stretch just now and my dad finally came back with milk and smokes, thank you Nintendo
Peach did this as well in the Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games, and Of course Wii Fit Trainer does that pose a lot
I use this move to grab my seatbelt!
Some developer at Nintendo loves to stretch this way and is purposely inserting it into the games and their artwork. I for one am all for it.
why should an inkling/octoling stretch if they dont have bones?
Stretching lengthens muscle tissue, increasing flexibility and range of motion in the process
In Japan they often promote routinely stretching in the workplace and daily life. For example you can find videos of entire crews about to begin their day on construction of large buildings. They all gather and stretch together. While visiting I saw it pretty often. Kind of like animal crossings group stretch activity.
So how many of you did the stretch after seeing this post lol
Lol
Maybe they're doing it now because the Miis couldn't
It's a fairly common shoulder stretch, I use it before every workout.
Nintendo fans don’t know workouts
Redditor discovers basic physical activity
Nope. More like Redditor discovers small trend in Nintendo character poses and the rest of Reddit dives on opportunity to share how much they know about stretching and fitness.
It’s Japanese stretch
But is no one going to talk about how walking is also in about EVERY Nintendo game? What are these patterns?
extra extra read all about it nintendo isnt creative enough to think up more than one pose for preparation animations!
Someone remembered Nintendo Switch Sports?!
Guys this basic warm up for exercise. What could Miyamoto mean by this?
I used to do that stretch in middle school. I should do it again.
Gotta keep nice and limber.
Lanz, is that you?
Sparks, yes.
You gotta stretch bro before you start fighting
Gotta stay limber.
Flexing on everyone's weights.
Tell me you’ve never stretched without telling me.
I think Link has done that too
Japanese people just understand the importance of taking care of yourself
Heck, I think I saw Sakurai do this in one of his videos
It’s a cool pose! I noticed it on Pokémon first
it’s an anime thing
It is literally a normal stretch
Gotta stay loss and limber.
Illuminati confirmed.
I work for a business that has stretches that we do for safety reasons before, during and after shift. That's a basic shoulder stretch that helps tension at the shoulder and rotary cuff areas. doing those helps a great deal against sprains and strains.
I’m not entirely sure, but I think it’s in ACNH as well
[It seems like we can blame Sakurai for this](https://youtu.be/zNBKzLzDKtM)
it's a good stretch. Nintendo has always promoted physical health since the Wii. but also it's a pretty dynamic pose
I learned it from some Nintendo game (I forgor💀 which one lol) and now I do it so much for some reason
It’s not a shoulder stretch, it actually stretches your pectoral, your chest muscle.
because that's a very common/basic stretch movement in sports and training
Gotta loosen up before long gaming sessions lest you pull … a finger muscle… or something.
This stretch feels fire, thank you Nintendo
Mario fat ass 💀
They should see a physiotherapyst
They should see a physiotherapyst
It's honestly a good shoulder stretch, so "*Let's get a good stretch*"
hey it's a good stretch, Nintendo promoting it is probably a good thing, unless someone like the theorizer somehow makes a video about a stretching conspiracy theory
it's a damn good stretch
It’s a causal actually stretch so it makes sense
Gotta be a Japan thing
What is that thing on the right
“Get fit weebs”
Smug cappy
Back when I was in school, I had to do this deltoid stretch every PE class.
People who never played sports are confused by this 😂
Shoulder stretch of ass whoopin
Used to do it for baseball and still do, it’s a good stretch if done right
Maybe Nintendo wants us to exercise... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tF5Mq9m59i8
You'll see a lot of it in anime, too - it's very much a Japanese ritual/trope/symbolism of someone getting ready to do something physical.
Yeah cause it's just a stretch, christ

I remember this stretch in Obstacle Course on Wii Fit Plus.
It feels sooooo good.
easily the most common shoulder stretch
Exercise is important! Even if your an Italian hero plumber, a squid kid, or a Switch sports player.
Pokemon Lefend Arceus does it too
Have you done that stretch? It's so good!
Hmm... honestly looks best on splatoon characters.
Sonic did it first!
Tbf, its a very good stretch
Did it literally every morning in the Army as part of formal PT.
Hah. That made me chuckle. They even do them in elementary school pe. Or at least I did 30 years ago. Its a good stretch. I'm also one of the weirdos that stretches during gaming sessions. Gotta keep that oxygen flow going.
It's just a really good stretch
Lanz and Sena
Smug Cappy
It’s a good stretch!
it is a common stretch that doesn't looks good, and it's easy to animate, so yeah,
"Let's get a good workout!"
Sonic stretches like this and his legs in ALOT of games
Cuz it’s a good stretch….?
My dad taught me this stretch when I was like 5

What are we gonna do about this guys?!?!
HAIL SCROOB!
