Mobility: The Missing Piece in Your Training

Getting stronger is amazing. But here’s the hard truth: if your body can’t move freely, that strength has limits.

Mobility is what makes strength usable. It’s what lets you flow between movements, stay pain-free, and unlock advanced skills like levers, handstands, and flips.

When I coached gymnastics and parkour, I saw this over and over: athletes who made mobility a priority progressed faster, stayed healthier, and looked smoother in their skills.

Meanwhile, the ones who skipped it? Shoulder pain, stiff hips, aching wrists — progress stalled.

Here’s a simple 2-minute daily routine you can try right now to get started:

Shoulders: 30 sec passive hang (use a chair or band for support if needed).
Hips: 30 sec deep squat hold (hold onto something if balance is tough).
Wrists: 30 sec wrist rocks or palm lifts on knees (or in cobra stretch if possible).

Cycle through 3 rounds. Breathe deep, exhale into each position, and focus on relaxing tension.

You can do this as a simple cooldown or a way to start the morning.

It doesn’t take hours — just minutes — to start feeling more freedom in your body.

👉 What’s the one area holding you back right now — shoulders, hips, or wrists?
