Do you get back pain on a regular basis, for no apparent reason?
Do you sit in a chair, behind a desk for hours at a time every day?
All of these are indicators that your body has (or is) making modifications to your ligaments, tendons and muscles in order to adapt to the environment you’ve created for it.
Without addressing it on a regular basis (10 minutes per day), it will have a long-term impact on your posture, your capacity to move, and your ability to live pain-free.
In this video, I’m going to demonstrate a 10-minute mobility sequence that will give you a short, effective routine you can follow to mobilize the most notoriously inflexible parts of your body.
Just watch the video above and follow along. I encourage you to stick with this routine — try doing it on a daily basis for an extended period of time to get the best results!
(Plus, it’s a great way to earn your daily mobility points for the Whole Life Challenge.)
