Mobility and flexibility are critical to our training, and there are multiple ways to go about this! Some advice is to make this a regular part of your routine and do this IMMEDIATELY when you wake up. Flexibility/Mobility are sometimes tough to fit into the middle of the day, so that regular routine can make a big difference. Enjoy!
- Check out the bottom of your daily WOD in your ChalkItPro app, you will always see some type of mobility or flexibility drill you can do on a daily basis. Your coach can give you guidance here if you ask them!
- Even just stretching for 15-20 minutes a day with all the old school gym class stretches you know can work. The key here is being sure to time your holds for anywhere from 1-2 minutes each. Here are two routines you could steal!
