One of the most overlooked factors people neglect when they workout is stability. They won’t see results because they can’t get their body to the point it can go hard enough because they lack the stability to withstand the workouts needed to get them to their goals. Let alone having the know how in how to get to them. If you want to lose weight or gain strength this is something you HAVE to do. Below is an example of one exercise you could do.

Check out this hip extension drill that mimics running.
If you don’t have a cable machine you can use a band instead.

If you don’t have those either you can do this drill without anything at all. You can just bring your leg in front of you a little bit as opposed to letting the cable or band at a high anchor point pull you up a bit. It’s also great for balance and coordination.

Whatever you do your body will adapt to. Want rounded shoulders, a stiff back, neck pain, and to cause dysfunction? Sit all day and do nothing to change those things.

People don’t often think of mobility when it comes to #bodybuilders but when someone goes through a certain range of motion consistently they generally KEEP that.

Going through full ranges of motion and working on muscular imbalances will at the VERY LEAST allow you to keep that range of motion and hold your joints in more preferable positions.

Cramped for time and need to work on strength AND mobility?

Work in exercises like the #pike pictured above to be time efficient with your workouts.
