Starting in March we have begun doing mobility drills to finish off our workouts. We will be teaching our athletes how to become more “open” which will help in getting into better positions which will help with performance. Check out Kelly Starret’s blog titled MobilityWod listed on the left column of our blog. Here is a paragraph from his opening page:
Every human being should be able to perform basic maintenance on themselves. You know what to eat, how to train, and what to do if you have a cut; you should also know how to fix your tight hips, painful knees, and stiff shoulders, and how to make yourself faster and more powerful. It’s too much to mobilize everything, all the time, everyday. Start somewhere. The Mobility Wod should take you four to 10 minutes to complete. Do it everyday. Remember the areas that feel like a Shaman’s Blow.
