A frequent paired movement limitation?

Hip Flexion 🤝 Ankle Dorsiflexion

While they aren’t perfectly reliant on each other, a deficit in one is often seen with a deficit in the other. These movements can sometimes be overlooked given the usual higher desire for a powerful hip extension and ankle plantflexion with movements like heavy lifts and high jumps.

However, like all movements in the body, you are missing out on optimal stability and strength when your occasional restriction evolves into a fixed limitation in a movement plane.

Here is an example of progressing challenges to hip flexion and ankle dorsiflexion. Try it out and you’ll see that what appears to be “simple” can take your full body’s effort to coordinate.

1️⃣ Active unloaded movement through isolated full hip and ankle range of motion

⬇️

2️⃣ Paired unloaded movement through full range of motion of both hip and ankle

⬇️

3️⃣ Paired loaded movement of both hip and ankle with band

👉🏽 Can you tell which hip and ankle is more limited with my lunge? 🤔

Single leg stability and power is the name of the game lately!

This is an example of progressing single leg drive to improve coordination of the lower body and get the best bang from the glutes. Everything from power lifts to picking up groceries benefits from a strong extension.

Bonus: can you tell which leg is more difficult for me? 🤔

Happy Spring! 🌼

Thank you for your support and dedication to your health and body 💕

Here's to continued growth in 2025!

Scapular isolation can be tough to pinpoint with exercise. If you struggle with shoulder mobility or shoulder pain with overhead movement, you may have restricted shoulder blade movement.

This progression of scapular depression and retraction is a good warm up to prepare for pull ups, overhead squats, or even push ups in order for shoulders to support a heavier load.

Happy Lifting 🏋️

Approaching 10 months postpartum!

Here is a sample progression to get back to impact and jumping. It's important to give your body time to adjust to the increased demand with return to jumping. Bracing, breath, and body position are also important as you progress to more rapid loading.

The double unders aren't perfect, but they're coming back faster and that's a win!

No matter where you're at, there's always a way to get back to where you were ↩️

Happy jumping 🦘

Taking a moment to reflect and be thankful for awesome people as we head into the new year.
