Snow hit us this week on the west coast, which doesn’t happen often so your shovelling technique may have been slightly out of practice😬 If your back or hips are a little tight this morning for all that extra hinging and lifting try these two mobility exercises aimed at mobilized your thoracic spine, lumbar spine and pelvis. And if you’re really sore get out there and just move today!! #yyj #victoriabc #snow #vancouverisland #winter #back #workout #mobility #westcoast #snowpanic #hips #stability #fit #fitness #recovery #shoveling #sore (at Victoria, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7ZG16gFKqi/?igshid=jexii37dat4

Utilizing functional, targeted drills and workouts is a very important part of becoming a well rounded combat sport athlete. The fighters we train all go through a foundation building phase that aims to ensure they first have mobility, then stability and we then layer in strength work. Shout out to this fighter who has been consistently putting the work in and has seen some major progress in his stability and strength! #yyj #yyjfitness #fit #fitness #gym #core #strength #fun #fitfam #friends #happyplace #workout #gymtime #backworkout #back #challenge #mma #martialarts #functionaltraining #victoriabc #awesome #fighter #training #taekwondo #bjj #boxing (at Victoria, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5YyfdelVhC/?igshid=1u8qnlzmzh4ti
