Happy March! Let’s focus on Mobility.
Did you notice we’ve added 20 VIDEOS to YAX Online that focus on mobility?
These videos provide athletes a therapeutic practice with self-myofascial release (SMR). Some yoga poses may be incorporated to increase joint range of motion (ROM), but the main focus will be on techniques using therapy balls. These videos are an excellent supplement to any athlete’s training program, acting as a deep tissue massage and soft tissue manipulation.
Benefits include:
- flexibility
- muscle recovery
- movement efficiency
- correcting inhibited or overactive muscles
- pain reduction
- stress/tension release
Our goal is help athletes to restore optimal muscle movement and function as well as produce positive, feel-good results.
Not sure where to start?
We suggest focusing on the lower body and completing 1 video per week for 5 weeks.
- Week 1: Feet
- Week 2: Lower Leg – Shins
- Week 3: Knees – IT Bands
- Week 4: Upper Leg – Quads
- Week 5: Hips & Glutes
