Ultimate people especially, please share this recovery session I just recorded. I really want to spread the love to this community ❤️ I’ll continue adding more resources and stories to this thread in hopes it’ll bring smiles and physical feel-good-ness: https://t.co/dwku62ezGX

I haven’t been on here at all in months and it’s been a massively positive change 😆 Met & interacted with a lot of great folks, so I wanted to let y’all know ❤️
Treat your mobility training like strength training. Because it IS.
Significant and lasting mobility gains come from consistent energy and effort.
At some point you need to work hard enough for your body to notice. Then keep its attention 👀
Get stronger, healthier hips with this concept
↻ First, do a few hip CARs. Don’t know ‘em? See some of my previous posts.
📝 Take note of which parts of your hip rotation feels most difficult.
😅 Spend lots of extra time and energy moving in and out of those positions.
Take note of where you meet resistance, where your body wants to help, or areas it wants to “skip” through.
I like doing sets of 2-3 reps at a time for warm-up, during training, and after training.

If you’re an athlete—or human—do these hip CARs for happier hips.
Happier hips = higher ceiling for strength, power, speed, performance!
These aren’t just “easy” hip circles. Follow along with me in the video.
The idea is to slowly carve through your largest pain-free ROM.
👉 Do your CARs
👉 Morning walk with direct sunlight
👉 Deep breathing break (long exhales)
👉 Cut up fresh veggies for the day
The beauty of consistency & commitment: a missed day or two is insignificant. The beauty of 5 mins: low barrier & it leads to more healthy behaviors ❤️
How 5 Minutes Per Day Can Change Your Life
You can make major progress by doing VERY simple things consistently.
But the key is getting the habit started. Which means keeping it simple and “low-barrier.” 5 minutes. I bet you already have an idea of what will help.
doing Ankle CARs and achilles isometrics EVERY morning and EVERY night. For 6+ months. I’m still doing it.
What is your low-hanging fruit? In what area could 5 minutes make a difference?
Want some ideas?
shoulder extension, I’m seriously challenging the tissues in the front of my shoulder. That’s where a ton of athletes and lifters get into trouble.

I ask a TON out of my shoulders, so I train them like this.
🔥 CARs: for warm-up, maintenance, and pain/stress management.
🔥 Isometrics: to improve strength, build up connective tissue resilience, and expand range of motion.
🔥 With INTENSITY: because
I’m getting that stick way up into my armpits and against my back. Then driving my arms forward, trying to break the stick.
After that, I’m immediately pulling my elbows as high as I can. Extraordinarily intense and rewarding 😄
