Why you keep having pain in the same areas over and over.

//Thread//

The Injury Cycle:

Quick thread on the 6 steps: #4 is the one you all know and hate.
Everyone has that one spot that bothers them.

It seems to go away at times, but the next thing you know it's right back and worst than before.

This is due to a process called the injury cycle.
1. Tissue Trauma

This doesn't have to be hard trauma.

It can result from overtraining or straining your muscle.

Which usually leads to microtears in the muscle belly.

At some point you gotta think:

It’s not a conspiracy theory if it’s true.

Think about it 💭 👇
“The US spends 3Xmore on healthcare than any other country in the world, but ranks last in life expectancy among the 12 wealthiest industrialized countries.”
As of 2020 40% of the country is obese.

40%!!

“Since the 1970s, the number of fast food restaurants has more than doubled”

UNLOCK YOUR HIPS

//THREAD//

A short and simple mobility flow to unlock your hips, move better, and feel better. Image
1. Worlds Greatest Stretch:

One of my favorites.

Do a few reps of around 10-30 seconds on each side. Image
2. Hip Flexor/Quad Stretch

Put a pillow on the floor and your knee right on top.

You can put your back ankle on a couch instead of holding it to make it easier.

Hold it for around 30 seconds for 2-3 reps.

Especially important if you sit a lot. Image
