muscles can be a gatekeeper for shoulder movement. Especially retracting and bracing for deadlifts. Mobile traps can equal good positioning

People often ask “if you could only work one muscle to demonstrate the effectiveness of body tempering, what would it be?” Trap all day long. So much tension, overuse, emotion stored in this muscle.

Using a specialized tool on the Achilles and calves.

Static load on the hamstrings while we hit 3 different lumbar spine positions. 1 minute neutral. 1 minute twist right. 1 minute twist left.

A tuneup on taper week before a meet. Amazing how relieving it is having a heavy roller moved up and down the back. This finisher is one of my favorites. Rolling 110 pounds up onto a tight spot in the traps and just letting it camp out followed by some throttling.

Sometimes these rollers can act as a screen. Rolling down the hamstrings slowly can get responses in the glutes and the calves. It’s important to note that correlation is not causation. But more often than not when I find scenarios like this, putting pressure on the hamstring spots can help disengage tone held in the glutes and calves.

Lats are often overlooked. Spend a minute looking at the muscle anatomy of the lat and you can see just how many structures it attaches to. It can be a gatekeeper to movement. Pressure up on that tendon can be intense, but very rewarding.

2 minutes of letting an 80 pound roller sit on the foot. Then 10-15 slow rolls. Then swap for an isolation tool. Same process. Then switch feet.

Very simple approach, which is great for heavy lifters and contact sport athletes.

Often times people come to me the week prior to an event, whether it be a meet, race, or competition. If we are just doing a general prep session, I love starting with heavy weight on the hips. So much movement can be restored by having a heavy roller resting on the glutes for a few minutes.

Trying to increase range of motion in the ankles. Start out with three minutes of ecstatic load with two weighted rollers. Then going into muscle floss tempering and ankle mobilization.

Doubling up static weight on the posterior chain. Finishing off by rolling down the hammies to find the remaining sore spots.
