via Dr. Ryan DeBell and The Movement Fix • We utilize this stretch to open up the lats, shoulders, and chest. Great for warmups and cool downs. • Using a bench we clasp the hands together with elbows on the bench (like you're praying- get it?!) just wide enough to drop the head through. • It is imperative to keep the abs tight, holding the ribcage in, to get the maximum effect of this stretch. • (The following are Amazon affiliate links.

Thanks for the support!) • Mobility Favorites: • Yoga mat https://amzn.to/3kBFB3Y (also great for bodyweight exercises on the floor!) • Yoga block https://amzn.to/3LGEU5x for when you need assistance in getting into your best individual position and stretch • Our favorite foam roller https://amzn.to/3vC9hUX. This is great, especially if you don’t have tons of space at home. • Foam roller (budget) https://amzn.to/3vC9hUX. This one is longer, but will degrade faster over time. • Lacrosse ball https://amzn.to/3vCSlhb. If the foam roller is a massage therapist’s forearm, the the LAX ball is a thumb! • Theracane https://amzn.to/3KAXlHl. Our favorite secret mobility tool. Gain leverage and hit tons of out-of-reach spots with less effort. • Hypervolt Percussion Massage Gun https://amzn.to/3s3YBw3. IMO the best one on the market! • Our training favorites: • Ab-mat for better core strength, HSPU, and midline stability https://amzn.to/3s6tdNA • Floss band for shoulder strengthening and mobility https://amzn.to/3vALKUj • Gymnastics rings https://amzn.to/3KxQ6Ql • Agility ladder for foot work (great for warmups and active recovery days) https://amzn.to/3kx3hGM • Thumb tape (for olympic weightlifting+) https://amzn.to/3ya4sUO • Hand grips to prevent hand rips https://amzn.to/3KC9agv • Knee sleeves (also great for deadlifts and rope climbs) https://amzn.to/3Fduckg • (Good) jump rope https://amzn.to/3kxccYT • (Better) jump rope https://amzn.to/3y9anJu • (Best) jump rope https://amzn.to/3KDAb31 • Dumbbells! https://amzn.to/3FclJhf • Kettlebells https://amzn.to/3s6Ses5 • Best barbell on Prime https://amzn.to/3kGXgqV • Best weight vest on Prime https://amzn.to/3867xu6 • Silencer drop pads https://amzn.to/3KE7Wl1 • For more info please visit us at http://foundationcrossfit.com/blog
