Hi Tribe,
I've been focusing on mobility in my hips and lower back lately and I learned something interesting that has made a big difference.
While doing lower back circles from Warrior Wellness Intermediate as before one bends laterally to the side lock the leg on that side and concentrate on being directly laterally. You'll have to bend the opposite leg slightly and tilt your pelvis. Go super slow at first and don't push the tension just move through the perimeter of it.
I found that my mobility dropped off dramatically. It's like finding a mess of knoted muscle, tendon, tension whatever it is. So now that you've found it you can clean it up. I have a feeling Coach Sonnon mentions this clearly in the Warrior Wellness Video but I haven't watched mine for a while.
What's awesome about this is it adresses a lot of tension and immobility in the lower back, hips, hamstrings and calves. There is no comparison between this and traditional hamstring and hip stretches. I in about a week my shinbox and elevated shinbox range of motion has increased exponentially. And that's only in a week, my motion is still really bound up.
I hope this helps. Have Fun!
