Welcome to the latest post in my miniseries on Upper Body Self Release! Today we're going to talk about loosening up #tightlats. Your #lats are one of the bigger muscles in your body (the #quadriceps being the biggest) and they're the ones you rely on for #chinups, #pullups, and for #stabilization during the #benchpress and #overheadpress. Tightness can cause rounded shoulders and #poorposture, as well as #shoulderpain in some. In order to loosen up this area you can simply take a foam roller and place it under your armpit. Depending on the side you're rolling out, lie on that leg, place your opposing foot on the ground and use your hips to move your lats up and down the roller. Roll each side 8 - 12 times or more if needed. #unitedinstrength #igfitness #rumbleroller #selfmyofascialrelease #selfreleasetips #selfrelease #nasm #nasmcertified #nasmcpt #latisimusdorsi #iamacpt #certifiedpersonaltrainer #onlinepersonaltraining #oneononepersonaltraining #letstraintogether https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv6l0BjlO8f/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nizlrpk7qwe7
