Awesome post! Take some time throughout the day to release those hamstrings! #Repost @dr.jacob.harden with @repostapp ・・・ RELEASE HAMSTRING TENSION RIGHT AT YOUR DESK I've been asking my office workers what the most common things are that 😣 bother them at work and started putting together a series of videos covering movement and mobility drills you can do right at your desk. Use these in conjunction with getting up and 🚶 walking around throughout the day to survive the desk life with less pain. First up is releasing some tension in your posterior chain. Long 🕦 hours sitting at the desk get your hamstrings all bound up and then you're left feeling tight for the rest of the day. Two major things contribute to this...actual hamstring tightness and ⚡ sciatic nerve tension. So let's loosen that up. You want to keep these drills dynamic. You've been sitting and still all day. The last thing you need is to stay 😴 static in a stretch. Get yourself moving. Start with the dynamic hamstring stretch and then end with the sciatic floss. No magic set and rep scheme here. Just move 💃 until you feel loosened up and then feel free to get back to work. . 🎶 - VVITCH (soundcloud) - The Lovers #MyodetoxOrlando #Myodetox #futureproofyourbody (at The fitness office.)

3D ADDUCTOR STRETCH 🔥🔥🔥 [stretching tip] . Awesome 3D stretch brought to you by @Myodetox therapist @phillymoves! #LoveMyTeam . Adding more dimensions to your movements puts your tissues through an unique stimuli, therefore the adaptations would also be more advantageous relative to one with just 1 plane . Today, let’s target the adductors or our inner thigh muscles. . Steps: 1️⃣The side being stretched is the dragging leg (so if working the right side, your left leg is in front). . 2️⃣Bring the lead leg to the side to give your hips room to come forward, this also places your adductors in a pre-stretched position. . 3️⃣Sagittal plane: Drive hips through and toward the lead leg, bringing the arms up adds more intensity. . 4️⃣Frontal plane: Hands to the side being stretched, emphasize on driving the hip towards the lead leg. . 5️⃣Transverse plane: Tall spine, rotate toward the stretching leg. . Been adding these prior to my workouts and they feel amazing . Tag someone who you think needs some adductor 🔥🌊🙆‍♂️ . #Myodetox #FutureProofYourBody

@Regrann from @hartrehab - "KNOTS" IN MY SHOULDER/BACK 🙈 #MYOliftingseries . You know the feeling, you're going throughout your day and suddenly you get that nagging feeling at the bottom of your neck or under your shoulder blade. . But "WHY ME".... I WORKOUT! 😫 . The SHORT answer: At the end of the day it come down to posture. 📝 The LONG answer: Long term biasing towards the front of our body throughout our day can lead to what are called PROTRACTED shoulder blades. Following this we either have lazy/asleep muscles in our back called rhomboids and trapezius muscles. This means we aren't getting as much "scapular retraction"... or pulling back our shoulder blades. . The majority of the movement therefore has to come from other muscles, one of which are your internal rotators of the shoulder. In this case there are our Lats buts but also rotator cuff muscle called the SUBSCAPULARIS. Postural issues can also lead to overstretching of a muscle called LEVATOR SCAPULAE . The result? We compensate through the shoulder itself to perform certain movements, such as rows in the gym. Leading to nagging overuse tension☹️ . I'll demonstrate in another post what the difference in rows would typically look like. . This concept can be applied to a number of "synergistic muscles" throughout the body. Different muscles contribute to certain movements which vary from person to person and depending on the task you're performing. But it's important that we understand those variances and what can lead to issues down the road. . I'm going to continue to post more about details of the shoulder related to this so if you have suggestions please let me know in the comments below. ✌🏼 . Coming up later this week: ➡️More info/education 🤓 ➡️Some basic gym mistakes ❌✅ ➡️Treatment technique 1🙏🏼 ➡️ Treatment technique 2 🙏🏼🙏🏼 . Tag someone with shoulder pain! 🤦🏻‍♂️ . . #myodetox #2017 #futureproofyourbody - #regrann

Here are 2 tricks to sleep better!! HOW TO DECOMPRESS YOUR SPINE!!!↔️ [side-lying] . If you like to sleep on your side, here’s an easy drill to decompress and lengthen your spine . 1️⃣lay on your side 2️⃣place your hands in a position to give you leverage 3️⃣Use your arms to push your upper body AWAY from your lower body 4️⃣if it’s comfortable to you, try to sleep in this position . If it isn’t comfortable, you can use it as a stretching drill and lay there for 2-3 mins and slowly progress to 5-10 mins (you should feel the sides of your torso stretching!) . 💡Imagine you are laying across a bar at chest height and you are trying to curve up and around it! . ❌make sure you don’t push upwards as that may strain your back . I’m going to take a break from the sleep posts for a minute and switch gears! What do you guys want me to talk about next? 🤔 . #Myodetox #FutureProofYourBody

YOUR BONES ARE LIVING TISSUE!!! . Did you know that your bone is a living tissue with wholes inside. The inside has a honeycomb-like appearance. It remodels itself constantly by the demands you place on it. . Bone remodeling occurs in two phases. First, special bone cells called “osteoclasts” break down bone. Then, other bone cells called “osteoblasts” create new bone. Osteoclasts and osteoblasts can coordinate well for most of your life. Eventually, this coordination can break down, and the osteoclasts begin to remove more bone than the osteoblasts can create. When this imbalance occurs for long periods of time you will develop osteoporosis. Bones affected by osteoporosis have larger holes and are more fragile. . Here are 3 tips to prevent osteoporosis: . 1. Engage in Weight-Bearing Exercise 2. Eat Plants and Fermented Foods 3. Get More Sleep .

💯IMPROVE YOUR SHOULDER HEALTH! [scapular mobility drill] . If you want to bulletproof your shoulder, you need to not only strengthen your rotator cuff, but also increase your scapular mobility! . Doing CARs (Controlled Articular Rotations) is a great way to articulate your scapula through it’s full range of motion! . They can be done as warm ups or working sets! The purpose is to stimulate 💪🏼muscle tissue, but also to make sure you maintain stimulation of the receptors in the tissue. Like the old adage goes "If you don't use it you lose it". The scapula can be very mobile if treated with care. This exercise should be done daily for 3-5 sets . 💡A few tips 1. Make sure your posture is erect (core tight, chest up) 2. Don't drive your neck forward 3. Maximize your ROM (range of motion) in each movement . ❤️spread the shoulder love and TAG a friend! .

IT'S ALL IN THE HIPS - 👉Had someone ask me how to properly hip hinge on one of my previous stretches. Here's a great explanation by my buddy @dr.jacob.harden 🙌 - The hip hinge is a fundamental movement that all humans should know how to do. In day to day movement, the hinge helps you move safely and efficiently and distribute stress between the back and hips. It also is a great way for people with low back pain to move pain free.😃 . Why you should hinge comes down to simply having options. . There is nothing wrong with spinal flexion. It is a natural movement that we should be able to do. But just as we should be able to move with flexion, we should also be able to move without it. 🗝 The more variability we have, the more options we have in our movement. . If you can't hinge, you have no choice but to flex through your spine. And while that's fine to tie your 👟shoes, it may not be the best way to move your couch or pick up a heavy deadlift, especially if you haven't trained loaded flexion. You need to know how to organize yourself and move efficiently when placed in higher stress situations so that you reduce your injury risk.🏋️‍♂️ . So if you need to work on your hinge, this is one of my favorite progressions. The key is to load into the hips and keep a neutral spine. It takes time to build this coordination so don't get frustrated if it doesn't come naturally at first. Keep practicing and you'll get it.✌❤ .
