My Soft Tissue / Mobility Routine

One thing I’m focusing on this year is treating my body better, so I’ve made it a habit to get in just  a little bit of soft tissue and mobility work each day.

Notice I said “habit”…motivation lasts for about a week, but habits can stick around forever

Usually something like this:

Foam Roll: calves, IT bands, quads, piriformis, lats, rhomboids, t-spine.

Mobility Drills: warrior lunge stretch, piriformis stretch, birddogs, shoulder to shoulder bridging, maybe some ankle stuff and then on to scap push ups, wall slides, reach-roll-lifts, and lat stretches.

Total Time: 10-15 minutes

Just one set for everything. Sometimes I’ll add a few things, but this has been working out pretty good. If anything, just running through something like Eric Cressey’s warm ups from Maximum Strength or Joe Defrancos “Agile 8″ would be excellent for most of us.
