Thursday Thoughts 💭

The energy you keep around you matters — a lot.
When you surround yourself with people who share your mission, your purpose sharpens, your focus strengthens, and your momentum multiplies.

It’s not about competition; it’s about alignment.
Find the people who push you, believe in you, and share your drive to grow — whether that’s in health, business, or personal goals.

Your circle should fuel your mission, not drain it. 🔥

💪 Shoulder Health WOD 13 — Build Strength, Control & Resilience

If you’re struggling with shoulder tightness, instability, or weakness — this one’s for you 👇

WOD 13 | Shoulder Functional Care
1️⃣ Rig Hang – 4 x :15 sec
2️⃣ Scapular Pull-Ups – 3 x 8
3️⃣ Banded Lat Pull Downs – 2 x 25

These movements target scapular stability and lat activation, two key pieces for keeping your shoulders healthy and strong through pressing, pulling, and overhead work.

✅ Rig Hang – Decompresses the shoulder joint while building grip and passive stability.
✅ Scapular Pull-Ups – Teach your scapulae to move with control before loading with full pull-ups.
✅ Banded Lat Pull Downs – Strengthen the lats to support shoulder mechanics and reduce impingement risk.

👉 Add this into your warm-up or active recovery day to keep your shoulders moving well and performing strong.

🔥 Shoulder Health WOD 12 🔥
Strong shoulders = better lifts, better posture, less pain.

Today we’re hitting three movements designed to bulletproof your shoulders:
1️⃣ Cuban Presses (2x10) – wake up those rotator cuffs and stabilize the joint.
2️⃣ DB High Pulls (4x5) – build upper back + trap strength for better shoulder mechanics.
3️⃣ DB Press (4x5) – lock in overhead stability and strength.

👉 Pro tip: The pulls and presses are programmed at 110% of your 10RM for a strength stimulus while still focusing on control and form.

Remember: Healthy shoulders aren’t built by chance—they’re built by smart, consistent work. 💪

💭 Was it really a bad day… or just a bad 5 minutes your nervous system kept replaying?

When stress hits, your body stores that tension. If you don’t reset, your brain + spine keep firing the same “stress pattern” all day long.

✨ Chiropractic care helps calm and reset your nervous system so your body doesn’t stay stuck in “fight-or-flight.”
✨ You get to move forward, instead of marinating in those 5 minutes.

👉 Protect your peace. Reset your body. Don’t let 5 minutes steal 24 hours.

Just like you wouldn’t skip a daily dose of something that keeps you healthy, exercise should be part of your prescription for life. Movement helps lower pain, improve mood, balance hormones, reduce inflammation, and keep your joints and spine resilient.

🏋️‍♂️ At Functional Care Rx, we believe in training smart, not just hard. The right exercise plan isn’t punishment—it’s prevention, recovery, and long-term health.

👉 Take your medicine today: move, lift, stretch, and breathe. Your future self will thank you.

🌅 Each day brings its own challenges and blessings.
Worrying about the future only steals the peace we are meant to have right now. 🙏

💡 Your squat is only as strong as the teamwork between your hips, knees, and ankles.
If one joint lacks mobility (like stiff ankles), the others have to work overtime—leading to compensations and potential pain.

✅ Good ankle mobility means less stress on the hips and shoulders.
✅ Strong hip mobility keeps the knees in line.
✅ Balanced knees help distribute the load safely.

Think of it like a chain: each link supports the others. When all three move well together, your squat feels smoother, stronger, and safer. 🔗💪

💡 Change doesn’t just happen in the gym — it happens in how you care for your body outside of it, too.
⠀
The difference you’ll see next week is built on:
✅ Consistent movement & strength training
✅ Proper recovery (sleep, hydration, nutrition)
✅ Nervous system balance & spinal alignment
⠀
When your spine moves well, your body performs well. Chiropractic care keeps your joints, muscles, and nervous system functioning at their best so every rep, run, and stretch actually counts. 🙌
⠀
This week, don’t just train harder—recover smarter. Your future self will thank you.
