This should be called the corporate millennial shoulder stretch

Sitting at a computer all day can make the front of the shoulders feel tight and cause the back of the shoulders to get weak. This creates a restricted over head position and doesn’t allow the shoulder to fully function the way a healthy shoulder should.

Now watch how much fun twanroland has with it…. Actually I think I had more fun coaching it 😂

Thank you twanroland for one of the most fun mobility sessions I’ve had in a while.

We were working on hip flexors and quads learning how to engage the reciprocal side while in the stretch.

I’m not saying more bc you just have to watch it. His reactions are real and he’s not exaggerating. In his words, “this mobility s**t is no joke.” 😂

Ranking Commonly Used Mobility Tools

If you have seen these tools at the gym, maybe this will help you pick which ones are worth your time.

Foam roller 8.8/10 - great for desensitizing larger muscle areas and it’s a great tool to use for stabilizing and activating areas by using it as feed back for movements

Lacrosse ball 9.2/10 - fantastic tool to hit smaller pinpoint areas and can be a great tool to keep from cheating during mobility exercises or squeezing to build more tension

Golf ball 4.3/10 - small and hard ball that can be useful for a few areas but isn’t great for very many of them. Really has no use case outside of that

Spiky ball 4.8/10 - kind of like the golf ball where it can be good use case for smaller areas but pretty uncomfortable to put pressure on and not much use case outside of that.

Resistance band 9.6/10 - top tier tool to help build mobility. Tons of exercises and stretches can be made more effective by adding a resistance band or using it in ways to force more stability

Your career is progressing… but does it feel like your body is going backwards?

Tight hips. Stiff back. Achy shoulders. Workouts that don’t feel as good as they used to.

It’s easy to chalk it up to getting older.

But your body isn’t necessarily failing you. It may just need something different from the generic workouts and random stretching you’ve been throwing at it.

That’s where Mobility-Based Strength Training comes in.

The goal isn’t just to become more flexible.

It’s to build the mobility, strength, and control that allow you to feel capable in the gym AND outside of it.

Because being successful in your career shouldn’t mean sacrificing what your body can do.

Move with confidence. Train without fear. Live without limits.

Save this if it sounds familiar — and follow along if you’re ready to start building a stronger, more capable body.
