🤸🏼‍♀️MOBILITY TEST🏋🏼‍♀️ ••• Weighted stretching allows you not only to increase range of motion, but increase strength through the new range of motion! 💪🏼 ••• Progressions: Unweighted- hold onto rig or squat rack as necessary Goblet position- hold weight in front of cheat to act as counterbalance Unweighted overhead- hold pvc pipe overhead IF you are successful with the first 3 progressions, only then can you add weight overhead! #safetyfirst ••• #weightedstretching #cossacksquat #mobility #test @paradisocrossfit (at Paradiso CrossFit Culver City) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxfKE5VnZni/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=v7d3si5lrxnd

🤸🏼‍♀️Long Muscles Are Strong Muscles 💪🏼 ••• Did you know that stretching regularly can increase strength and decrease injuries?! ••• Weighted stretching will help you increase strength through a new range of motion! ••• Jefferson curls and the weighted pancake stretch are 2 of my favorite weighted stretches. ••• If you give these a shot, start with rally light weight and increase range of motion as you start to feel more comfortable with the movement! ••• #weightedstretching #jeffersoncurls #pancakestretch @paradisocrossfit @gymnasticbodies (at Paradiso CrossFit Venice)
