Breathmaxxing Day 1.

Breathwork is a powerful tool I underutilized for a long time. I thought it was kind of voodoo and didn't really know what to get out of it. It wan't until I started thinking about breath and the mechanics of the area deeper until I understood the value. In this series, we're going to go through breathing exercises that are very simple, and hopefully you'll be able to feel what I'm trying to get you to feel, so we can start using your breath in a way that improves your breathing itself, but also your posture and how areas like your rib cage, neck, and back move and feel. Eventually we'll build that into a mobility and strength practice.

Follow along over the next while as we go through different breathing exercises you can use in your own mobility and strength routines. Have any questions or anything you’d like me to tackle as we dive deeper into breathing? Leave a comment or send me a DM and I’ll do my best to get to it!

Check out this knee rotation exercise! It requires some kind of resistance band and a place to anchor it. It is a great way to get some of your knee stabilizers working!

If planks always seem to hit your low back more than your abs, this tweak might help.

This is one of my favourite exercises for improving chronic low back tension and hip flexor tension, but the how matters.

When most people do a plank, they either hang in their lower back or miss the muscles that should be doing the work.

Two key things to focus on:
1. Push the shoulder blades forward
Think about the muscles around your armpits and sides of your body working. We want the upper back active, not the shoulder blades squeezed together.
2. Flatten the low back
Think ribs down and abs on. A full exhale can help you find the muscles on the front and sides of your trunk that help take tension out of the lower back.

A good place to start is on all fours:
• hands under shoulders
• knees under hips
• push the floor away
• gently flatten the low back
• exhale fully

From there, progress to hovering the knees, then to a full plank while keeping the same focus.

Done well, this should feel like a lot more abs and serratus, and a lot less “just hanging out” in your low back.

If you find exercise tips like this helpful, check out my page and follow along for more.

Getting on and off the floor is one of the most functional things we can do!

Make this challenging by keeping your hips low and using your arms as much or little as you need.

Need ideas to make this more accessible? Let me know!

This one goes out to my stiff hip homies. Two outer hip stretches, one easier and one deeper, to light up that glute and outer hip area. Give them a try for 2 minutes and let me know what you want to see next.

Stiff hips? This 90/90 drill is a great way to test and train active hip rotation.
A lot of people have more passive range than they can actually control. This is one simple way to work on that.

Save this and try both sides.

Maybe you’re not “tight”… maybe you’re just running hot all day.

3–5 breaths. Long exhales. Jaw relaxed. Tongue up.
Do it at your desk and tell me if your shoulders drop by the end.
