Mobility is one of those things that’s easy to skip… until your body reminds you why it matters.
I’ve just uploaded a gentle Eskrima stick mobility warm-up to YouTube and wanted to share it here with you all 👇
This session starts with wrist mobility and then moves into the arms and shoulders. It’s designed as a pre-warm-up to help:
Lubricate the joints
Improve range of motion
Reduce stiffness
Keep you training longer and feeling better
💡 This also ties in nicely with a question Mr Mitchell asked about developing your weaker side.
When one side feels awkward or uncoordinated, it’s often not just a “skill” issue — it’s a mobility and awareness issue too.
Slower, controlled movements like these give your nervous system time to catch up, especially on your non-dominant side.
If you’re working on your weaker side, try:
Spending a little more time on it during mobility work
Moving slower, not harder
Focusing on smooth, clean ranges rather than speed or power
Use this video as:
A warm-up before training
A recovery session
Or a focused way to give your weaker side some extra attention
Let me know how it feels, especially on your non-dominant side 👍
