I am so stoked for this convertible car seat for our little one that will last us for many years and make getting them in and out of the car SO easy

Also this is greenguard GOLD certified and flame retardant free🎉🎉

Thank you so much .usa for sending this over, we are so grateful!!

*we uninstalled the car seat after this and will put it back in right before baby is born*

✨Get more SPECIFIC with your mobility training 👌

✨ Get more INTENSE with your mobility training 🔥

Spine Segmentations
- Rotation + tubing


When you are training SPINE MOBILITY
✨ think segmentally
✨ FIND the tight segments and TARGET them
✨…and if you can add intensity without loosing specificity GO FOR IT ( we get faster biological and neurological changes with more intensity )

There are 17 segments from the base of your neck to the bottom of your spine.

VERY OFTEN there are segments in our MID BACK that get stuck.
= SEGMENTAL CONTROL DEFICITS.

Adding tubing :
▶️ captures these segments to assist and target their mobility
▶️ increases the intensity of the technique = more biological and neurological change
▶️ increases sensory input = more motor output

Movement is medicine.

Ever day is spine day

⚠️There are lots of tight muscles in this area.
▶️ The arm pit

This is the foundation for
✅ your shoulder
✅ your neck
✅ human movement ( athletic separation)
✅ breathing
✅ posture

💡You have 12 rows of ribs
= 12 stacked dinner plates

✅ You should have space between each of these 12 ribs.

❌ In most of my patients I can’t even FIND space.
The intercostals are locked down and exquisitely tender.

Get yourself some space ❤️

▶️ put your arm overhead … or not
▶️ roll forwards, backwards … or not
▶️ use a ball, a roller, rolled up towel, a roller with a towel over it, a yoga mat - you have to be able to relax

BREATHE IN
try to expand the TOP ribs, the armpit, under the shoulder.

BREATHE OUT
MELT around the prop, let it SINK into your body.

🥇This is one of my favourite techniques and fastest ways to improve your overall mobility.

Why?

Firstly, we know anytime you lie on your side It changes your chest wall configuration and airflow management.

Takashima S, Nozoe M, Mase K, Kouyama Y, Matsush*ta K, Ando H. Effects of posture on chest-wall configuration and motion during tidal breathing in normal men. J Phys Ther Sci. 2017 Jan;29(1):29-34. doi: 10.1589/jpts.29.29. Epub 2017 Jan 30. PMID: 28210033; PMCID: PMC5300799.

It helps us get anterior posterior expansion, because we need expansion 360° around . usually people are pretty good at lateral expansion. AP is hard. We want 360 degrees.

Secondly …

MOST of us have asymmetries and significant loss of mobility in this area.

Add a ball, towel, yoga, mat, etc., to side lying and now it’s almost like having your own manual therapist to help disrupt this HARD to get to a SUPER sticky part of your rib cage.

So good!

💡 Do you have this essential human skill?

▶️ Hip extension…
Without back extension?
Without lumbar compensation?

🔥This is about INTERNAL tug-of-wars

💡 Where is the point that your hip stops moving and your back starts moving?

THE BIGGER QUESTION IS …

Are you built to last?

One of the MOST IMPORTANT parameters for this… is moving WITHOUT compensations.

MOVING WELL.

Can you move your arm without your back extending…your ribcage compressing…your neck compressing…your shoulder blades escaping ?

In these swimmers hovers our class is owning it.
End range shoulder movement without compensations.

✅ This is BODY CONTROL.

Get your KINSTRETCH on and learn to move better.

Want your hip to last a lifetime?

✅ give your hip space

📌I highly recommend this
PAILs x RAILs in figure 4

▶️ Let me guide you through it.
(you can also find this technique in my free hip mobility class at the link in my bio)

⚠️The MOST important part of this technique is the SET UP.

✅ There are 3 parts to this technique :

1️⃣ Set Up and STRETCh - Find your line of tension stretch (stretch) at the back of the hip

Cues :
-wide sit bones
-tailbone to the ground
-heavy femur ( let it sink back deep into the socket)
-Bow the stretch
-keep this out of your back ( long waist)
-Keep this out of your hip flexors

⚠️Pro tip - Less is more especially when you are first exploring this position

STRETCH
1-2 min passive stretch ( less needed if hyper mobile )
-relax
-use your parasympathetic breathing to work through your neurological ( gamma motor tone) and biological tension ( stress/strain curve of collagen) and to get to your true end range.
-snuggle up as needed

NOW, we add our end range stretch training …

2️⃣ PAILs = Progressive Angular Isometric Loading

CORE ON
10 sec
Greatest Safest Effort
▶️ foot presses into the knee
✨option to ALSO pull the knee towards you for a rotational bias

3️⃣ RAILs = Regressive Angular Isometric Loading

CORE ON
10 sec
Greatest Safest Effort
▶️ foot pulls off of the knee ( lift, unweight)
✨option to ALSO push with the knee for a rotational

THEN,

Release - snuggle up any new range
Repeat - 2 more times

✅ Science based mobility training
Building end range strength and body control for usable ranges of motion

Coming up …
▶️ PRI hip lift with hip shift to position and align the joint in this new space 🙌

Nothing feels as good as mobility 🔥

Have a HOLE at the back of your hip?

💡STUFF at the back of your HIP not working right …

✨TRY THIS

A modified RDL
🔥hip hinge + ADDUCTORS

✨Adductors is why it works so well.

Adductors :
centre you
stabilize you
position you
pull you
shift you
lateralize you
🔥ALIGN YOU

…All of which you need if you want the stuff at the back of your hip to work well.

💡ADDUCTORS are the #1 mm where strength its associated with a painfree well functioning hip

If you really want to dial this in and make sure your hip is working well, make sure you have YOUR OTHER PREREQUISITES.

✅ strengthen your FEET ( your foundation 🦶!)
✅ get the muscles at the back of your hip to be LONG and STRONG
✅ work on you hip alignment

…all coming up 🙌

Nothing feels as good as mobility ❤️

Enjoy!

💡The fundamental question…

⚠️ Can you move you hip without your back moving?

If you can’t,
I bet you have an unhappy pelvis and back.

Give it a try ⬇️

Modified standing hip
Controlled Articular Rotation (CAR)

It’s a fancy name, but the concept is simple…

CAR is you MINIMUM dose of daily movement for your joint if you want to maintain body control, mobility and health of your joint.

There are infinite options for the base position ( standing, leaning, side lying, quadruped, against a wall) but this is one of my favourites for getting results.

The benefits:

➡️ There is more control and blocking vs the standing version.
➡️ There is less hip flexor cramping and pinching vs the standing version
➡️ You hit the coveted glutes and hip extension lines of tension vs the side lying option

⚠️ Remember
- find your end range compensation free
- No back movement, just pure honest hip movement
- it’s not about how big the circle is, it’s about CONTROL
- Each rep is slow, mindful and intense 😉

You’ve got this!

❤️ Swimmers Hovers

One of my favourite isometric movement paths from

In this version : we band the elbow and focus on the beginning of the hover… 😬often things go wrong at the initiation of movement and then you aren’t getting the most out of the rest of the technique.

This version helps me and my patients get CONNECTED in an area we are often DISCONNECTED. Between the shoulder blades.

Great for posture, mobility, stability and strength

…AND, it just feels good.

The rules :
▶️ the shoulder blade must move back ( posterior tilt, ER, retraction) with the arm
▶️ the ribs must stay back
▶️ the chin must stack back
▶️ air must move into the back body
⚠️ Don’t crush your back ribs when you bring your arm back.
Stay big back there 🙌

🙌moving in the right places
