Oh, old news

haha...new to me...jerk... good read though...

Haha, just kidding. For you to be reading that stuff with the amount of experience you have means you early to the game, not late. Good bread, Pity

BTW, keep in mind that the mobility stuff can serve as your warmup as well. You will want to just sort of put the stuff that gets your heart rate up more toward the end if you haven't already realized that. Of course you still want you warm up/acclimation for the lift.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.

i used it for a warmup yesterday before lifting...and i always do the acclimation stuff...felt pretty good...wall slides are interesting...my left shoulder does the..."click, click"

that tennis ball thing just plain does not feel right...maybe my balls are too hard.

Oh right, sorry, you mentioned that. I forgot that he recommends two tennis balls taped together for the thoacic mobiltiy one. I actually don't agree with someone starting on that.

A foam roller would work fine but try a rolled up towel or two rolled up towels. All you need is something in place to act as a sort of "hinge" for your upper back to pivot on. I don't get the tennis ball thing and it is not necessary to have all your weight focused on just two tennis balls. I never even bothered with it...I use my foam roller or a rolled up towel because I figured it wouldn't 'feel right'

Wall slides are great. Really great.

I'm impressed by you sometimes, Pity.



Sometimes

i am in awe to be impressionable upon you even if it's only sometimes...i almost shit my pants when i read that

i saw anuj doing it...and i got curious what the f it was...so i read it...and well...i'm sick of fucking knee pain and lower back pain. i've been doing alot of good stretching and that has helped my back immensely...it's a little tight in the morning...but the rest of the day i'm usually ok...i was even ok after sitting in the bleachers at the track meet today...so things are progressing there.


BUT I WANT TO FUCKING SQUAT.

that's the thing that bothers me the most.....its not that i have "pain" per se...but my knees just feel really "warm" like...it's sorta like i put icy hot on....but i haven't.


so anything i can do to curb that shit = me happy.

and i just tried that towel thing.


holy fucking amazing. i looked exactly like the dude in the video...he hides his pain well...cuz nothing about that is pleasant.

thanks for the tip.

those mobility drills helped me out plenty.

just an fyi: i am taking a small holiday trip to new york - chicago between the 14th and the 27th of may. during this time ill probably only be able to workout 2-4 times if i even manage to. however, i do plan on doing mobility drills 4x during those 2 weeks. plus, i think the time off after training non-stop for 18 weeks will do me good
