I'm wondering what kind of mobility drills people are using as part of their stretching/cooldown/maintennace routines? I do a mix of Tai Chi Kung(soft), Hard Chi Kung, different kinds of kicks, and rotational stuff for the joints, hips and shoulders. Afterwards I do static stretching , mostly stuff for the spine, hipflexors, groin and legs. I showed you mine now show me yours.
Duh it might help typing up what I do: Maintenance Session Breakdown Warmup Tai Chi Kung x5 (PTMSTS) Universal Post x2min Condense x1min Womb x1min Circle Head Shoulder Locks Shoulder Dislocates Circle Shoulders Circle body 10x Circle hips 10x Circle knees 10x Elbow to toes 10x Pendulum leg stretch 10x Side leg stretch 10x Outside wheel kick 10x Lying leg stretch 10x Front/side combination kick 10x Back kick 10x Standing relaxation 1 minute Power Set Raise & lower palms 50x Cat stretches forward 10x Cat stretches backward 10x Cross-legged roll backs 20x Back arches 10x Stretching Set Chinese Toetouches x20 Groin Stretch Side split holding ankles 1 minute Sit back, lean to left then right 1 minute each Head to left then right toe 1 minute each Lean forward 1 minute Front split left then right 1 minute each Mermaid x1min Hip Flexors 3x1min TCK x1 Chikung Soft Hard I find that it helps balance out all the high intensity stuff I do.(weights, conditioning) It gives me a huge energy boost aswell, even if I only do some Chikung after a conditioning session I feel like going back and doing some more.
Ankle mobility keeping weight on heel and shooting knee over toes, thorasic mobility with a size 3 basketball, and glenohumarul mobility with scapular stability by doing the scapular wall slide. When i get good at them exercises I will do overhead atg squats with a broom. I have anterior tilt so should I try to increase my hip flexion range of motion? I cant bring my knee to my chest while keeping my back off the ground like Bill Hartman recomends here. http://billhartman.net/blog/2007/08/22/targeted-mobility/
