Something we spoke about a lot at the recent workshop, very useful if you work with clients who keep coming back with the same restricted range. The instinct when mobilisation isn't holding is to do more of it, more reps, more time, more pressure into the range. But if the nervous system has decided that position isn't safe, you're not going to stretch your way past that decision. It's not a tissue problem. It's a threat response. The actual fix is building trust. External stability strategies, a hand on a wall, holding onto a bench, let the nervous system practice the range in a controlled environment. The tissue doesn't change. The range doesn't change. But the brain's risk assessment does. From there, the work is weaning off the external support so the body can generate that stability internally. This principle shows up constantly in the gym and in clinics. Restrictions that aren't responding to mobilisation aren't always a mobility issues. Sometimes the body is just waiting to feel safe enough to go there. Where are you seeing this in your clients right now? Hip and T-spine cases especially, drop them below. 👇

Hello, is here anybody from Germany, Austria or Switzerland? For exchange in German.

I stopped taking on new clients about a year ago. The mentorship grew quickly and something had to give. I've spent that time teaching movement mechanics to coaches and clinicians full time. In doing that the assessment process has got sharper than it's ever been, and I'm ready to work with individuals again. I'm looking for 3 people to work with before I open this up properly. If you train seriously and you've got something that keeps coming back despite doing all the right things, the recurring injury that physio has helped temporarily but never solved, the movement limitation quietly capping your performance, drop me a DM and tell me what you're dealing with. I'll tell you if I think it's something I can help you move past. Ash

Happy New Year team! I hope 2026 is off to a great start for you all. If you want a deeper explanation for why traditional shoulder rehab is not very effective, I recently stumbled on this dissertation presentation I did going through: 🚩 Force differences of an external rotation vs kipping pullup 🚩 Muscle loading patterns compared between the two 🚩 A couple of case studies of people switching from old school physio to movement mechanics Let me know what you think and if you want more similar content, message me with topics 👊 https://www.skool.com/training-stimulus/classroom/e3029523?md=b55ea675ab35418ea7be865093d00ec3
