Squat Pattern Optimizing💪🏻

often times I see clients who have a rotation compensation in their squat pattern.

Something simple you can layer into your warm out to help combat this problem to avoid minimizing performance as well as potential pain or injury is to do a band resisted isometric squat.

How:
✅ Loop a band around the base of a rack (you might need to put two bands together as shown here)
✅ Do a full 360° rotation so you are facing the origin of the band and our centered to
✅ keeping your body perfectly centered and square, perform 3 to 5 reps for five second holds at the bottom

Do the basics…consistently = Get results

Neck Pain💪🏻

Most people stretch the back of their neck when it hurts (seems logical).

But often because of our posture, the back is already overstretched and stretching it more only provides temporary relief.

But it doesn't fix the problem.

Try stretching your SCM (sternocleidomastoid) muscle in the front and see if that helps!

How:
To be able to sell your service you must:
✅ hold onto your chair and turn your head toward that same arm
✅ tilt your head back to the other shoulder and look up
✅ hold for 20-30 seconds or until the stretch reduces by 50%

Do the basics…consistently = Get results

Posture Problems💪🏻

Try a little soft tissue work on your Pec Minor.

It attaches from your scapula (shoulder blade), believe it or not, and down to your ribs in front.

When it’s tight, it can crank your posture into a slouch and tip your shoulder blade forward causing shoulder and/or neck pain.

How:
To be able to sell your service you must:
✅ 1” in and 1” up from armpit. Put the ball in there.
✅ Lean against a rack or doorway and create a tender pressure
✅ Find the most tender spot and hang out for 20-30 seconds or until the pain reduces by 50%

Do the basics…consistently = Get results
