Bulletproof Shoulders 🔥
Build mobility, stability, and strength. These 4 moves prep your shoulders to move better, and stay injury-free. 💪

1️⃣ Thread the Needle (with slide)
Opens your upper back, improves shoulder mobility, and builds rotational stability as you control the reach and slide.
Reps: 3 sets of 8–10 each side

2️⃣ Serratus Wall Slides (with roller)
Lights up the serratus + teaches your shoulder blade to move the way it should for pain-free pressing.
Reps: 3 sets of 10–12 slow slides

3️⃣ Bus Drivers (band)
Builds endurance in small stabilizers that keep humeral head centred. Rotational tension = rock-solid shoulder stability.
Reps: 3 sets of 10–12 each direction

4️⃣ Dynamic Arm Bar
Trains shoulder stability under load improving scapulohumeral rhythm and challenges proprioception.
Reps: 3 sets of 6-8 with medium load

3 Inner Core Progressions 💥

Your deep core deserves more than crunches. 😉

1️⃣ Isometric Dead Bug – build foundational deep core control.
2️⃣ Dead Bug with Dynamic Arms & Legs – challenge stability while moving the limbs.
3️⃣ Dead Bug + Leg Lift with Head/Shoulder Raise – increase load, coordination, and anterior core demand.

These progressions help train the inner core to stay stable while the body moves — a key skill for low-back health, posture, and injury prevention.

✔️ Move slow
✔️ Keep ribs down
✔️ Breathe through the reps

Lumbar disc rehab 💥

1️⃣ Cobra Pose (Prone Extensions)
Opens the front of the spine and reduces disc pressure.
Start low → press up only as far as your back allows without pain.
2️⃣ Sciatic Nerve Floss
Smooth, controlled glides to reduce nerve tension — NOT a stretch.
Move slow. No aggressive pulling.
3️⃣ Bird Dog
Core + lumbar stability.
Keep your hips level and your spine long.
Quality > range.
4️⃣ Traction
Can help decompress the lumbar discs and calm irritated nerves.

✨ Go slow. Stay consistent. Stop if symptoms increase.
✨ Always follow your clinician’s guidance if you’re recovering from a disc injury.

🧘‍♂️ Struggle with sitting cross-legged?
Try these two simple movements to improve comfort and mobility.

✨ 1. Cross-Legged Sit with Spinal Rotation
Sit tall and lengthen your spine.
Use your arms to gently assist rotation.
Take 8-10 deep nasal breaths per side.

✨ 2. Active Cross-Legged Sit
Sit tall with your spine long and pelvis slightly forward.
Keep your trunk upright and gently pull your knees toward the floor.
Take 8-10 deep nasal breaths here too.

💡 Tip: Sitting on a yoga block makes both positions easier and helps you maintain posture.
