🥴 TIGHT CHEST 🥴

The PECS don’t just respond to the pumpin of iron in a gym …

In fact, your PECS are one of the MOST ACTIVE muscles in your body thanks to our modern day lifestyles…

The PEC major and minor sit above and below each other, respectively…

Here the PEC minor gets a GREAT release and adding the breath at the top of the stretch will take it that bit further…

Oh … and this will also sort out your TENNIS ELBOW pain 🤪🎾💪🏻💥🙌🏻

TENNIS ELBOW
🎾💪🏻🎾💪🏻🎾

WHY does it come on??

Usually onsets because the forearm muscles are having to work WAY more than they usually would …

The foundations of your elbow are in the middle back and more specifically, around the shoulder blade …

We use these muscles MORE than ever - holding phones - typing keyboards - looking down …

They get wound up - congested - lack good blood flow - and essentially stop helping the rest of your arm with day to day tasks …

THE ANSWER …

Start at the arm foundations … loosen the shoulder blade and ribcage by taking some SLOW, DEEP BREATHS in - targeting the shoulder area of the painful elbow side … home the breath in and stretch the arm out …

Aaaaaaaaaaagh 😮‍💨

NECK PAIN 🥴

Where’s it come from?

Quite often we’ll blame having slept funny or a draft through the window …

This is very rarely the issue … the answer lies in understanding how you use your body the most …

Remember the advice …

“The posture you are in the most … will cause most of your problems”

Start there folks … how do you use your body throughout the day … or more specifically … how do you abuse your body …

Being sedentary is often more damaging than being active!!

Hip mobility and stability … they rely on each other …

This simple loosener is a great way to get the hips warmed up before you set off running or walking …

ARM SWING in Running … is it really that important??

HELL YEAH !!!

This is your 3rd LEG people … the all so often neglected part of running mechanics that will reward your running efficiency way more than you realise …

And this area of your body is as much the Curse as it is the Cure …

We all spend so much time keeping our shoulders tight and stiff throughout the day (holding the damn thing you are watching this on!!) that nowadays …

Death of the Arm Swing

Is an actual worldwide condition that should be medically registered !!!

MOVE THOSE DAMN SHOULDERS PEEPS …

And at the very least … your running will improve!!
