Assess the overall health and mobility of your shoulders with the 180-degree test. This protocol will help identify any restrictions in external or internal rotation, which can impact exercises like squats and overhead presses. π€ΈββοΈ
If you have issues with external rotation, this protocol will help correct that by resetting the joint position and lengthening the tight muscles. Improved external rotation can alleviate discomfort during exercises like squats. πͺ
If you have trouble with internal rotation, this protocol will help address that by lengthening the tight muscles and resetting the joint position. Improved internal rotation can enhance pressing movements like dips and bench presses. ποΈββοΈ
If you've been working with mobility issues for a long time, your chest muscles may have shortened in length. This protocol helps lengthen and reset the chest muscles, improving their range of motion and potential for growth. ποΈββοΈπͺ
Tightness in the thoracic spine can cause your head to jolt forward during shoulder presses. This protocol targets the muscles that support the thoracic spine, improving mobility and proper movement patterns. π§ββοΈ
Many people neglect training their lower back, leading to tightness and weakness over time. This protocol targets the muscles of the lower back, helping to improve mobility and prevent issues during exercises. π§ββοΈ
Tight hips and glutes can lead to improper squat form and impaired muscle activation. This protocol resets the hip joint and helps recruit the glutes before your workout. ποΈββοΈ
Tight adductors can cause your knees to collapse inward during squats. This protocol targets these muscles, improving mobility and proper knee tracking. ποΈββοΈ
Tight hamstrings can limit range of motion and lead to compensation from the lower back during exercises like stiff-leg deadlifts. This protocol targets hamstring mobility for improved movement patterns. π§ββοΈ
Tight ankles and calves can impair proper squat depth and form. This protocol targets ankle mobility, allowing for better range of motion and improved squat mechanics. ποΈββοΈ
