Question for folks with #autistic kids, specifically ones who are extra stiff (instead of hypermobile/hyperflexible). I'm getting my 9-year to be a bit more physically active, and am wondering if anyone has any suggestions for flexibility/mobility exercises that have helped and also haven't proven very frustrating.

(Bodyweight squats are tricky, because it's hard for him to contort properly, which upsets him)

Thanks!

@brianhogg body stiffness is correlated with autism? 😮
My hip joints have always been very stiff, it's near impossible for me to sit on the ground comfortably (I can't cross my legs).
@autistic_enby it can be, I believe. I’m pretty flexible, but my son and my brother, both on the spectrum, are ultra-stiff in the same way.
