💪🏼 Day 11 Workout
Today is about restoration, not retreat. Mobility is what keeps you in the fight long after everyone else quits. Champions don’t just train — they recover with purpose. No Quit isn’t about going harder… it’s about staying in the game.
1️⃣ PART 1 — MOBILITY WARM-UP (4–5 minutes)
Perform each movement for 40 sec, flowing from one to the next:
  • Deep nasal breathing (2 slow breaths per rep)
  • Cat-cow
  • Hip circles (wide, slow)
  • Arm circles → cross-body shoulder swings
  • Good-morning hinge patterning
Purpose: Switch from “stress mode” to “restore mode.”
2️⃣ PART 2 — FULL BODY MOBILITY CIRCUIT (10–15 minutes)
Perform 1–2 rounds depending on time and level.
🔥 SPINE + HIPS BLOCK
Beginner
  • Seated hamstring stretch: 30 sec/side
  • Hip flexor stretch (standing or kneeling): 30 sec/side
  • Seated hip opener figure-4: 30 sec/side
  • Child’s pose: 30–45 sec
Intermediate
  • 90/90 hip rotations: 30 sec/side
  • Hip flexor stretch with overhead reach: 45 sec/side
  • Pigeon stretch (light depth): 30 sec/side
  • Cat-cow w/ deep spinal pull: 45 sec
Advanced
  • 90/90 transitions (controlled): 45 sec/side
  • Deep lunge to hamstring flow: 45 sec/side
  • Pigeon pose (full depth): 60 sec/side
  • Thread-the-needle: 45 sec/side
Coaching Cue:
Slow = strong. Breath controls the stretch, not force.
🔥 SHOULDERS + POSTURE BLOCK
Beginner
  • Wall angels: 30–40 sec
  • Scap retractions (hands behind head): 30 sec
  • Chest doorway stretch: 30 sec/side
Intermediate

  • Wall angels: 45 sec

Advanced
  • Prone Y-T-W-L series: 30–45 sec
  • Scapular push-ups: 10–12
  • Wall angels (slow tempo): 60 sec
Coaching Cue:
Open the chest, wake up the upper back. Posture = power.
3️⃣ PART 3 — CORE STABILITY RESET (3–6 minutes)
Not intense — just enough to reinforce trunk control.
Beginner
  • Dead bug: 8–10/side
  • Side plank: 15 sec/side
Intermediate
  • Dead bug (3-sec hold): 10–12/side
  • Side plank: 25–30 sec/side
Advanced
  • Bird dog (5-sec hold): 10/side
  • Side plank hip lifts: 15–20/side
Coaching Cue:
Control > quantity. Stability prevents injury.
4️⃣ PART 4 — FLEXIBILITY FINISHER (4–6 minutes)
All levels welcome — deepen based on comfort.
  • Forward fold: 45 sec
  • Quad stretch: 30 sec/side
  • Glute stretch: 45 sec/side
  • Hip flexor stretch: 30–45 sec/side
  • Slow breathing: 3–5 rounds
5️⃣ OPTIONAL: SHORT “RECOVERY WALK” (5–10 minutes)
Encourage men to take a quiet walk afterward to:
  • Lower cortisol
  • Reset breathing rhythm
  • Increase blood flow to joints
  • Get sunlight or fresh air
💥 MODIFICATIONS FOR PHYSICAL LIMITATIONS
