*Edit: Details

Apologies for not including this to begin with. I have a house full of extra children and I'm a little scatterbrained.
 
@luke Hey, can you edit the post to have a short paragraph about who she is, what she does, and why it's relevant here? I know you aren't new here, but... Rule 3
 
@qtpie71 Yeeeah, honestly I just threw it out cause I saw it and thought it looked useful. But I'm on mobile now and busy with a family visit, so if you want we can remove this and I can repost in the daily thread. Sorry about that.
 
@luke Aside from downloading an ebook, anyone have a summary or video of just the exercises? Seems to be an odd medium for this type of thing, and well I'm lazy
 
@kelvinsayhi

Here's a quick synopsis as I peruse the document:​


Step 1: Warm Up with dynamic movement or cardio

Step 2: Soft Tissue Prep:
  • Pec minor: use a peanut (two tennis balls taped together) to release your pec minor while laying on the floor in a certain position,
  • T-spine mobilization: mobilize your upper back by laying supine on peanut (elevated on something ideally) while you arch/round your back.
  • Use peanut for your lats
Step 3: Nerve mob: ulnar nerve mobilization

Step 4: Muscle activation
  • Go into childs pose and lift your arms.
  • Go into childs pose with arms elevated and lift your arms up
  • Thoracic Rotation in Plank with band
  • Wall facing scapular slides
  • Plank side steps (go into plank and move your hands to the left and right)
 
@kelvinsayhi Just get on IG and search @cirque_physio . She just ran a short tutorial challenge with shoulder exercises last week, and they've helped me a lot with tightness in those weird under-the-shoulder rotator cuff muscles like pec minor and teres major.
