Protect the health of your shoulders by prioritizing capsule focused shoulder training.

After all the shoulder in itself is a ball and socket joint - meaning rotation is of a high importance!

Just doing the exercise isn’t enough if you’re doing it wrong!

A lot of clinicians and athletes love to incorporate CARs but very few pay attention to details.

We use CARs to isolate a joint. This will help you truly understand how it’s moving and if there is any limitations.

Use a wall to block out your thoracic spine next time you attempt shoulder CARs

It just depends on what your spine really needs more of!

Shoulder Extension Mobility❗️

If you struggle with shoulder issues on bench press this is for you!

Stop overcomplicating your strength training.

One band can unlock so many ranges of motion.

Which do you struggle with?

Knee flexion is a crucial component for deep squats and overall knee health, allowing for better mobility, stability, and strength!

This can help you reduce stress on the knee and improve joint health.

Here are knee flexion lift-off progressions (Levels 1-4) to help you build active knee flexion and take your performance to the next level.

What level can you get to?

Get the most out of your mobility training with specificity.

The guy on the left:
Uses his back and moves too fast ❌

The guy on the right:
Uses only the hip and slows things down ✅

Don’t waste reps and energy by doing them with low effort.

Foam rolling does not make you more mobile!

All it does is help reduce tissue tension TEMPORARILY.

Lasting change takes work and effort. Mobility falls under the same principles as strength training. If your MVC is minimal - don’t expect any change.

Ready to learn a proper Jefferson curl? Pay attention.

If you’re getting serious about your spinal mobility then this is an absolute staple to your routine.

The Jefferson curl is however the exercise I see messed up the most.

Only have a medicine ball for mobility work? That’s more than enough!

Here’s a quick and effective routine using just a med ball—covering your hips, shoulders, neck, and upper back.

Whether you’re warming up, recovering, or just trying to move better, this is a solid place to start. Reps and sets will depend on your goals and current ability so scale it to fit YOU.

Which movement is your favorite?

I have been working with a few patients lately that struggle with knee extension.

Full knee extension after ACL surgery isn’t optional to achieve, it’s a foundational requirement.

Even a few degrees of loss can lead to compensation, anterior knee pain, and stalled strength progress.

Here are a few variations I use daily with my patients
