We were built to hang. Hanging for shoulder health and strength is actually essential. Without regular hanging, our shoulders deform and don't operate the way they're supposed to.
Shoulder strength and shoulder mobility depends on hanging. Without regular hanging we will not have the shoulder flexibility that we should. This stresses our rotator cuff and limits shoulder strength. If you're concerned about injury prevention, you should be hanging.
About this video: In this video Benjamyn Smith, Doctor Ben, explains different hanging exercises. He also explains why you should be hanging for shoulder health, shoulder strength, and shoulder mobility. He also covers why hanging for shoulder health is important for your rotator cuff and for injury prevention.

I rarely see this shoulder exercise talked about today and it's one of my favorites! I originally picked it up from my childhood idol, Arnold! But I have seen Katy Bowman using it as one of her rehab exercises as well.
The pull-over is a great way to build shoulder extension and improve your ability to reach over head. This is a range of motion that is commonly compromised. With regular practice you can open up your shoulder joint again and restore a normal range of motion, as well as stave of common shoulder issues!

Normally my go-to herb to relax are chamomile or valerian. Recently though I have discovered passion flower. I have only been using it a short while but I have been very happy with the way it relaxes me mentally without making me feel tired.
Passion flower helps control the amount of information sent across neurons. Which is very handy if you have a stressed out, over active nervous system.
If you have experience with passion flower I’d love to hear about it!

I hate push ups because the military ruined me on them forever! I avoid 'em like the plague. But I see so many bad push-ups I thought a little instruction could help.
This is going to be a "how to do push ups correctly for beginners" kinda video, but even if you still have some experience you may pick something up!
There are a few things you need to remember with push ups.
1. A solid plank position - if you can't hold it for 60 seconds you're not ready for a push up
2. Start simple - start with an easier version of the push up until you build some strength, then scale up as you get stronger.
3. Protect your shoulders - make sure your elbows aren't flared out or you'll put unneeded stress on your shoulders.
4. Don't force reps - Stop the push up workout when your form starts to breakdown

I much prefer active stretching to passive stretching to improve flexibility. But that doesn't mean passive stretching doesn't have good uses.
Passive stretching is great for lowing the overall tension levels in the body and retraining muscles to hold less tension. My favorite time to use it is before bed so that I sleep better!
You can also use passive stretching for a very long period of time to gradually convince the body into more range of motion. I like to do this while I'm watching TV. Pick a stretch and stay there for 5, 10, or even 15 minutes. Over time this can greatly improve your flexibility and stress levels.

Knee and ankle pain can be a real problem. Sometimes it's something major. But often enough it's something you can address yourself. This is a great self-massage technique that can really help alleviate inner knee and ankle pain. It's really pretty easy to do and often quickly resolves the issue.
I'll guide you through how to locate the trigger point and how to massage it. If you'd like to go more in-depth with trigger point self-massage, check out my favorite reference book, The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Clair Davies: https://amzn.to/3HysH1m

How do you feel about yawning? Many of us feel like it's rude to yawn. We often stifle or prevent our yawns entirely. But you need to yawn! It's really important that you don't fight the yawn. Yawning is really important for maintaining a balanced nervous system!

The ground movement series is back! Extension and rotation through our trunk is key for a healthy body. However, most of our daily lives don't work this aspect very often. Some simple movement pair with a little isometric contraction can help retrain these movement patterns and free up a lot of stuck spots.
As usual with my ground movement series, this a no equipment and do anywhere workout. The movements are simple and I walk you through the whole workout. Take your time and perform the movements slowly and controlled. If you need to use bolsters or a movement is too challenging for you right now, don't force it.
