Stuff to Check Out: Ruthless Mobility Edition

Today marks the last day of the sale for Ruthless Mobility and I wanted to give you some of the FREE content that’s been put out as part of the promotions from a couple of key sources.

5 Strategies For Quickly Increasing Your Mobility – EricCressey.com

This article outlines the anatomy and physiology behind some quick mobility “hacks” to help you see improvements almost immediately, as well as some simple tests and applications to see what level of mobility improvement you can get.

Stretch The Tight? – TonyGentilcore.com

Tony wrote an awesome explanation on how to use reactive stability techniques to showcase some immediate improvements in hip mobility, including a great visual demonstration with a live person. He also outlines how some people will spend literally YEARS stretching tight muscles without realizing they’re tight for a reason and stretching them out won’t produce the benefits they want. When you ask them why they keep stretching and haven’t seen improvements, they just say they don’t stretch enough and need to do more to see the results they want. Ummm, no, that’s not how any of this works.

New York Seminar Series – Featuring Ruthless Mobility and Advanced Core Training

I’ll be hosting a 2 day workshop at Halevy Life on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in February 28 – March 1st, and we’re going to not only have a blasty blast deadlifting and getting out reactive deadbug on, we might even take a field trip down to TriBecCa and crash a Tracy Anderson dance class to flail around all day long. KIDDING!! We won’t be doing that last one at all.

After seeing the article I wrote the other day about getting Hunter Cook to do the splits, a Facebook friend named Amanda Thebe decided to try it out, and without any warm up and a couple of the tips I gave, she managed to make this happen.

If you want to see what the videos are all about, here’s a short 9 minute clip ABSOLUTELY FREE to check out on a mobility exercise for the thoracic spine. This incorporates breathing, scapular stability, thoracic extension, and reactive stabilization all from a simple position that can be progressed or regressed as needed.

Not to just bombard you with stuff on mobility today, I have some cuteness to tide you over as well. This past weekend we adopted a dog rescued from a backyard breeder. Freckles the boston terrier had already had 4 litters by the time she was 2 years old, and had lived the first 2 years of her life in a crate, where she developed an eye injury that subsequently became badly infected and needed to be removed. She was rescued when a volunteer with a rescue organization saw the breeders bringing her into the vet to be “disposed of” as she had run out of her usefulness as a breeding dog. She bought Freckles for $50 (to cover the breeders costs for her vaccinations), and took her in.

In spite of everything she’s been through, she’s remarkably healthy, happy, energetic and trusting, coming right over and sitting in my lap on the first day we met her. She’s been fitting in really well, with no behavioural issues or anxiety about the new family she’s adopted as her pack.

She would really love it if you picked up a copy of Ruthless Mobility too so that you can have as much wiggle in your bum as she has 😉 Shameless, I know, but still worth it.

The sale price ends tonight, December 12th at midnight pst, so act quickly so you can get your mobility on. There’s DVDs and continuing education credits, plus me in shorts and a t-shirt with a rugged manly beard, so pretty much everything you could ask for is taken care of.
