Improve shoulder mobility & correct posture with these 8 simple moves ✔️
Shoulder mobility refers to the range of motion and flexibility of your shoulder joints. It plays a crucial role in the overall functionality and health of your upper body. When your shoulders are mobile and flexible, they can move freely without restrictions, reducing strain on surrounding muscles and joints.
Benefits of good shoulder mobility:
* Pain Relief: Enhancing shoulder mobility helps reduce tension and strain in the neck and back, alleviating pain and discomfort.
* Better Posture: Mobile shoulders support an upright posture, decreasing the likelihood of neck and shoulder pain caused by poor alignment.
* Enhanced Functionality: With better shoulder mobility, daily activities become easier and less painful, from reaching overhead to carrying objects.
* Reduced Risk of Injuries: Improved mobility helps distribute physical stress more evenly, lowering the risk of injuries in the neck, shoulders, and upper back.

#5 moves to increase shoulder mobility and get rid of those deep knots in your shoulder blades 🪢
Muscle knots usually happen because a muscle has been irritated by a repetitive motion. Athletes will notice muscle knots after training one group of muscles for a long period of time. A muscle might also knot up when it’s in an awkward position for too long. Sitting at a desk or driving a car for a long time, especially without breaks, can irritate a muscle to the point of it “knotting up”.
Gentle stretching and mobility that elongates your muscles can help you to release tension in your body. Be gentle with yourself while stretching. Don’t force yourself into any positions or do anything that causes pain!
Work through 30-60 seconds of each movement daily to see an improvement and prevent reoccurrence 🙌🏽
Save this lower body routine to ease tightness and improve mobility in the legs. We start simple with gentle movements laying down, working our way to more challenging kneeling and standing postures. 🙌🏽
If you’ve spent too long sitting down, trained hard in the gym or done an insane amount of steps over the weekend this one’s for you! 🏃
Focus on your breathing and controlling the movement. Set aside 10 minutes and work through 1 minute of each, synchronising your breath to each move.
Breathe in deeply and breathe out completely.
Repeat the cycle and really tune into your body.
