SNATCH MOBILITY PREP. I've received a lot of questions recently about my thoughts on following passive mobility techniques up with loading so thought I'd share an example. After focusing on powerlifting for a while my shoulder mobility has stiffened a bit so prior to snatching I did this warm up: ➡️Overhead Opener as a passive stretch of the shoulders and thoracic spine. ➡️Squat Y's for loading into this newly acquired range of motion and for some upper back strength work (this is much harder than it appears). ➡️Finished with behind the neck sotts press for a bit more movement specific prep work. #CrossFit #mobility #fitness #weightlifting #functionalmovement #charlottefitness #thebarbellphysio #BulletProofMobility #heavysquatsfixeverything #masterthesquat #physicaltherapy #physiotherapy #ClinicalAthlete #cltcrossfit #olympicweightlifting (at Charlotte, North Carolina)

Active hip mobility drill in the bottom of the squat. Really hits the hip rotators and ability to control the bottom position of the squat.

One of my favorite squat correctives. Set a ball or box at the level the athlete looses proper positioning. The athlete sits on the ball and moves into proper position. Then they tension everything before lifting off the ball slightly. Maybe only one inch up maintaining positions and then sit again. Repeat. Very tough and quickly teaches them to own those tough positions.

90/90 breathing with hip internal rotation is a great exercise for improving squat depth.

Tall kneeling hip hinge is a good regression exercise for those struggling to pass the hip hinge test. The tall kneeling position eliminates hamstring issues as well as giving the athlete a target (their feet) to push their butt back to so they learn to weight shift posteriorly. This exercise makes a quick fix for many struggling with the hip hinge. ----------------------------------------------------- TheBarbellPhysio.com Improving the worlds of athletic performance, injury prevention, and rehabiliitation. #prehab #rehab2performance #mobility #mobilitywod #charlottefitness #CLTfitness #physicaltherapy #BulletProofMobility

Crossfit athlete that came to me with back pain is an excellent example of why assessing your ability to hip hinge is important. Hurt his back after two workouts involving deadlifts and snatches. When we tested his hip hinge (top left) you can see he immediately goes into lumbar flexion as he flexes his hips (he cannot dissociate lumbar movement from hips). This places stress on low back and puts him in inefficient position for generating hip power. Treatment was kneeling hip hinge seen in bottom right (better vid in my next insta post). Performed only twenty reps and in the right video you can see how his hinge pattern is improved already. ----------------------------------------------------- TheBarbellPhysio.com Improving the worlds of athletic performance, injury prevention, and rehabiliitation. #prehab #rehab2performance #mobility #mobilitywod #charlottefitness #CLTfitness #physicaltherapy #BulletProofMobility
