**Today is a good day to revisit our upper body mobility, specifically after Tuesday’s Bear Complex. We stressed the behind the neck movement since that’s something we don’t do that often. Is that a hole in our programming? Possibly. But there are ways to be ready to bring a barbell down behind the neck without specifically doing the movement. Did you roll out your lats as was programmed in Tuesday’s mobility? Did you do the single arm banded pull downs that were programmed as the Cashout work for last Tuesday’s double strength day? Or what about the 5 way banded shoulder stretch that we did last Monday, and typically once a week? Have you rolled out your tspine with a double lacrosse ball? Or smashed your pec with a single lacrosse ball into the rig? All of these are ways to target the muscles around your shoulder to improve your positioning overhead and holding a barbell in the front rack. Take advantage of them before and after class.
