Get A Stretch From The Shoulders To The Hips With This Mobility Sequence

back mobility stretch Feb 08, 2021

 

In this video I show a useful combined movement that incorporates the shoulders, mid and low back, and inner thigh areas to actively warm up prior to activity such as Jiu-Jitsu.

The "Prayer Stretch" position in a wide knee position will address the shoulders, mid-low back, and inner hips. Followed by a reach through with focuses on the back of the shoulder (posterior capsule stretch) and a mid to low back (thoracic and lumbar spine) rotation stretch.

The gentle overpressure with the other hand provides a more significant stretch. This is a useful and effective technique that I have used to warm up and get my body ready for activity.
