Have you got tight hips?? A lack of stability across a joint can lead to muscle tightness. Set up a bench or steps as shown. Place your foot on bench and use your elbow for stability. Similar to a side plank but using only one leg to hold you up. Aim for 30 seconds (if you can’t do that, do as much as you can and build up to 30 seconds). Do 2-3 sets on each leg a couple of times per week. My mobility plans are now available. Drop me a message for more information. -Initial Consultation -Movement Assessment -Bespoke Program -Follow on appointments with progressions every 3 weeks #mobility #injuryprevention #sports #triathlon #gaa #movement
Tight Hip Flexors?? Try this, actively flex the hip as high as you can, hold for a few seconds. With your arms pull the knee up finding your passive end range. From here take a deep breath, create tension throughout your body, let go of your knee and try to keep the hip in the same position. Hold for a few seconds. Repeat on the other leg. Do 3-5 reps on each leg. 1-2 sets 😊 Passive end range holds 😊
TIGHT HAMSTRINGS??? Continuously stretching and not seeing any results? Have you tried strengthening? A lack of end range strength can lead to a lack of stability across a joint and in turn can lead to muscle tightness! Use a wall to minimize compensation. Lift the heel off the ground trying to drive into the glute. Squeeze and hold or a few seconds and repeat. Do 5-10 reps on each leg, 2-3 sets a couple times per week.

BAD BACK??? Is your back always stiff, sore and tight?? How often do you bring your spine through it’s full range of motion? I would guess that most of you never do. So how do you expect to have a loose and pain free back if you don’t even move your back. Mobility is very much use it or lose it. Below is an exercise that you should do everyday. Start with a simple cat/cow (rounding and arching the spine) and progressing to trying to move each vertebrae (spine segmentation) Do 5-10 reps and 2-3 sets Everyday 😊
How many of you suffer from lack of mobility in your shoulders? Probably a lot of you. Now let me ask you how many of you move your shoulders everyday? Above your head, behind you, rotation. You can’t expect to have good mobility if you don’t even use your shoulders like there designed to be used.
