🌟Movement Monday🌟 Do you have neck pain or a constant ache between your shoulder blades from staring at your phone or computer all day? 📱💻
Poor posture can lead to tight necks, rounded shoulders, and constant discomfort.

Try these 2 simple exercises to reset your posture and relieve neck strain and upper back pain:
👉 Prone cervical retraction – strengthens deep neck muscles and combats forward head posture
👉 Scapular retraction lift-off – activates upper-back muscles to pull shoulders back where they belong

Do these consistently and your neck (and posture) will thank you.
Small daily habits = big long-term relief.
Move better. Stay Strong. Train with Fortitude. 💪

🌟Movement Monday🌟

Hip mobility/Glute Activation
Lateral Hip Mobilization - Creates space in the hip joint and may reduce one-sided anterior hip pinching during deep squat positions. Perform for 1-2 minutes per side.

Glute Activation - Improves hip stability and can help restore glute engagement when one side isn’t firing. Perform both exercises for 8-10 reps each with a 3-5 second hold. Focus on not allowing the band to collapse the knee inward to further help engage the glutes.

Why Do This Before Lower Body Exercises?
Improves muscle activation and joint mechanics to enhance squat depth and reduce compensation-related injury risk. DM for any questions.

🌟Movement Monday🌟 Banded Overhead Shoulder Mobility (Warm-Up)
Before any overhead lifting, prep your shoulders with these banded overhead shoulder mobility exercises. This quick warm-up helps open the shoulders, improve range of motion, and activate the stabilizing muscles needed for safe and efficient overhead work. Ideal for CrossFit athletes and anyone pressing, snatching, jerking, or kipping, these movements reduce stiffness, reinforce proper positioning, and help prevent shoulder injuries. Focus on controlled movement and full ranges—your shoulders will feel more stable, mobile, and ready to lift. First exercise: Use a flat back with your arm relaxed for 1-2 minutes per shoulder. Second exercise: keep shoulders back and not rounded forward. Relax arms and don’t fight the band. DM for any questions. Save this video for your next warmup!
