I often use pistol squats or single leg squats as a big part of my assessment and rehabilitation for many lower limb or lower back complaints. This assisted version takes away components of flexibility/stability/mobility allowing the movement to be easier🔫🦵 . . . . . . . . #osteohealthandperformance #osteo #osteopathy #rehab #rehabilitation #gym #manualtherapy #strengthandconditioning #westmelbourne #brooklyn #yarraville #altonanorth #pistolsquats #squats

Band assisted thoracic mobilisation. Great for stiffness in thoracic spine to help with positions like the front squat or overhead movements🎸🥁 . . . . . . . . #osteohealthandperformance #osteo #osteopathy #rehab #rehabilitation #gym #manualtherapy #strengthandconditioning #westmelbourne #brooklyn #yarraville #altonanorth #thoracic #mobility

The Romanian deadlift is a great exercise to solidify the hip hinge pattern and to strengthen the muscles of the posterior chain. When the exercise is done unilaterally, it challenges stability and it can show differences from side to side. Conducting the exercise in different directions can further emphasise these areas 🦵🦵

Kettlebell halo’s are great for improving shoulder and thoracic range of motion whilst developing stability in the shoulder and the midline 😇😇

Here’s a way to work on internal and external rotation mobility of the hips. It can give us an indication on certain restrictions and where we can spend more time improving. It can be a good way to warm up before any exercise, just ensure that there isn’t any pain or pinching in the hips. 🧘🧘‍♂️

The brettzel stretch is a great stretch not only because it makes you feel like a pretzel! 🥨🥨 . It works to improve thoracic mobility while stretching through the hip flexors. Take a few breaths in the position allowing yourself to fall further into the stretch as you exhale
