Petra ⚡️Movement For All Bodies on Instagram: "Let’s talk upper back & shoulders ⤵️

🔖 But first, be sure to SAVE THIS to come back to later 🔖

Many people struggle to feel, move and control our shoulder blades - it’s a tough area to connect to! 

But that’s a shame because strong, mobile scaps are really important to stabilize our spine and support healthy shoulders and breathing!

This simple exercise is much harder than it looks but practice makes perfect! Make sure you keep your elbows straight and your spine still relative to itself - this is just your shoulder blades moving in and out!

Want help building a super healthy, mobile upper body? You’ll find the essentials in my Pelvic Floor+ program - on sale now! Comment SUMMERSALE for all the details 😘

PS my awesome student Tara too

Michael Boshnack on Instagram: "Fix Forward Head Posture and Improve Your Spinal Alignment!

Exercise of the Day: Prone Chin Tuck

Start by lying face down with your head hanging off the edge of a bed or table. Next, draw the back of your head upward towards the ceiling as you tuck your chin towards your chest. Your eyes, nose, and chin should be pointed down towards the floor the entire time.

If you’re suffering from forward head posture and neck pain, stretches and massages can be helpful. But what you really need is to strengthen your neck muscles so your spine has less work to do. This straightforward exercise is highly effective for correcting forward head posture and enhancing overall posture.

By focusing on and strengthening the neck and upper back muscles, it helps reduce tension

Whealth on Instagram: "Your knee needs to be able to rotate. If your knee is in pain, comment “knee” and we will send you our email series that will go into depth about how to perform this movement without resistance and also show you how to do some massages, stretches, and strengthening exercises for muscles around the knee.

This exercise in the video feels awesome. Start with little to no resistance.

It is important to keep your foot flexed toward your knee the entire time to prevent the ankle from rolling side to side - this exercise isn’t about moving the ankle. The only reason the foot moves is because the tibia is rotating at the knee.

Pelvic Mama | Pregnancy & Postpartum Yoga on Instagram: "HIP STRETCH 

If you're suffering with tight hips and lower back, this stretch is what you need. 

Hold each side for 1 minute, relaxing and taking deep breaths.

Your body might look different in the stretch and that's perfectly OK. Your legs do not need to be perfectly stacked on top of each other. Just listen to your body
 
Tight hips can contribute to poor posture and pelvis alignment. So it's important to work on relaxing your muscles as well as all the strengthening work we do.

Alex Dalili on Instagram: "1 MINUTE A DAY⁉️ 🔸 Save this exercise so you can repeat it regularly🙏🏼 💡 I keep emphasizing that #mobility doesn’t have to be complicated or time-consuming! Often, just a few minutes and exercises are enough to do something good for your body, improve your flexibility, and most importantly, counteract tension and pain in the long term! ➡️ Here’s an incredibly good exercise for the shoulder joint! Especially for people who sit a lot (and often hunched), there are often restrictions in this area. But in general, the shoulder joint is very prone to injury! 👉🏼 Therefore, it is incredibly important to give this joint more attention - especially with ACTIVE movement through the full range of motion! Then you will quickly notice: When the shoulders are loose a

Perform as many repetitions as feel comfortable for you. For sustained posture improvement and a healthy back, combine mobility exercises with strength training for your back, core, and glutes. A holistic approach is essential for long-lasting results."
